    Some of those (not me, its not on my photo and or/travel list), could be people who have/still are funding the build/rebuild etc of Tornado. You might also be one of those.

    My last comment may have been too accurate! I have heard eleswhere that 'Tornado' is not running the 'Duchy' now. How true that is I don't know (it was a comment posted on my YT video).

    Tornado is sat alongside Britannia in the yard at Wansford . Wansford is of course close for LMS if needed but of course that maybe a little supposition on my part

    we are getting squeaky for getting it to the Greatest Gathering for the much vaunted four Class A line up , not to mention the Sunday tour

    Rileys staff have been working constantly in relay fashion for the last 48 hrs to try to ensure 45212 makes it to Bristol on Saturday, whilst at the same time carrying WOX exams on 45407 AND 44871 in Fort William all in the same week..........

    I don't think it's about the colours, but the sealed windows of Mk2s, etc., which many feel spoils the ambience of a steam-hauled trip.

    Indeed - my comment was merely a play on words, rather than a criticism.

    This is so much more than just a like - I've gone through a whole gamut of emotions and shed a tear or two remembering times when I'd had a similar view.
    I lost my Dad a few years back and these memories are so precious to look back on.
