Tornado to MOSI

Good pics and videos. Once I work out how to put pictures up I'll post a couple from its arrival.

Who mentioned horseyface????

 

Hi Ian and welcome to the forum.

As was posted by a couple of members prior to the run care has to be taken not to give out info on a public forum that could at least have legal implications for the forum or poster and at worst provide info that could be of use to some of these nutters who want to create a terrorist atrocity for some cause or other.
I think most members got their info direct from each other by knowing who to ask and passing the info on to others as we do when linesiding etc. This was the case with the Cotton Mill last Saturday, I was nowhere near a PC for 3 hours or so but knew within a few minutes what was happening at Lancaster and Preston.

Neil.

 

I will be buying an extra packet of Duchy Original Cornish Wafers to compensate.

 

Suprising no one yet seems to have picked up on 60163's sortie today, or are we bored of light engine movements now ?

 

Tornado at Standish in the rain going back to Manchester.

Cheers folks, I thought as much. I saw the Preston-Manchester on http://www.uksteam.info/tours but thought that was it. I didn't realise it was going back to preston to go back to manchester (which seemed odd when they could have left it parked in manchester?!) then down to crewe afterwards. Was this known to you chaps before hand or did it just come about yesterday?

I'm guessing the only way you chaps found out is by asking a friendly signalman in the know or enquirying with someone who does

Thanks anyways!

 

Non finer, a wonderful site. He does a wonderful service for us folk.:first:

 

How about this one at Parkside at 09:40?

Got a couple of shots of her running light engine with support coach at Coventry this afternoon. I only found out about this an hour or so before via text message. No info published about it anywhere
that I could find!

Seems this move slipped under the radar of most Rick, not everyone however

 

I managed to Tornado twice today at Old Milverton and Leamington Spa station http://railways.mjspencer.com/gallery/v/Feb10/

 

:rip:

 

Cheers Ralph, no worries I'll have to keep my ear to the ground and get more in the know

 

Mind you - You couldn't have written it

He came up to lecture us all about global warming - behind a fossil fuel burning steam loco arranged especially for him!

Do as I say - not as I do!

But I'm damned glad he did!

 

That coat Frank? For the same reason that his Mum always wears vivid pastel shades from head to toe - so he can be picked out from 200 paces, like you did Frank!

Peter, at dawn in Manchester
