    QI - I’ve not come across this steam loco database website before, found it from a link on another thread regarding Black 5 spares. Anyway, out of curiosity I searched for Tornado, and there’s a pretty much complete record of the Trust’s press releases. I’ve screenshot these from the time she was withdrawn for overhaul in January 2022.

    As these appear to be copied from the Trust’s official news bulletins there’s no mention of some if the more serious hiccups, such as the three sets of tubes for the boiler, or its distortion and consequential turning down of the drivers etc. But they do catalogue the numerous postponements and no-shows over the 3 years of the protracted 6 month overhaul period.
