Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Tornado" Simmers at Alresford, Hampshire No.60163 “Tornado”. Completed in 2008, “Tornado” was the first mainline steam locomotive to be built, in Britain, for nearly 60 years. It is the 50th Peppercorn A1 Pacific loco; the first 49 having been scrapped, after the end of mainline steam.

Working towards 90 mph mainline running; its first visit to the Mid Hants Railway, for the Spring Gala 2010, saw more leisurely running, over this heavily graded line.

"Tornado" waiting to depart for Alton, with a packed train (think "rush hour", London). Crowds were lining every available vantage point; there was a significant "gallery", out of picture, to the right.
