Class A1, 60163 'Tornado'
The always impressive newbuild Class A1 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive , 60163 'Tornado' at Sheringham station on the North Norfolk Railway on August 30th 2012 prior to the September Steam Gala. A better shot from my brother than I could manage of the A1 on my visit here just a few days later.
The Tornado is very special, please read this link to get the full story on the first MAINLINE steam locomotive to be built in the UK since 1960. (Construction started in 1994 and was completed in 2008)
