Tornado light movement wed's 8th june;

Hi do anyone on this web site have the times of tornado's light movement to Didcot on wed's;
please was hoping to see her at banbury;

all the best
jane;

 

Nothing showing on UKSteam at the moment, other than she's booked to run via Carlisle, which seems a peculiar way to go, but there it is. I'm looking out for times myself, so I can pass 'em on to friends & family.

Coming south ready for Canterbury trip on 18th June ?????? Also, why the diesel and coaches to from Crewe to Tyne to meet her and then come back to Crewe ?? !! Is it a test run or am I missing something ? Cheers

 

Yes, it is a loaded test run Tyne Yard-Carlisle-Crewe. Then engine and coach Crewe-Didcot GWS on Thursday. It will be in steam at Didcot on Saturday.

 

Thanks for the info. Looks like we shall get a light engine move through Reading then over the next 10 days. Have to keep a watch out.

 

5Z17 comprising Royal loco 67005 plus 10 Mark 2 coaches left York at 1254.
All coaches in Virgin livery except the last, 'ELGAR', in blue/cream.

 

60163 reported to be running an hour late.

 

Thanks to David for posting up the times on UK Steam info, link here:-

I think I will go to see 60163 this evening perhaps at Warrington BQ as the light will be going then if running to time or possibly late as per Simons post above. There has been a lot of rain to alleviate the fire risk in the Northwest but very little steam recently.

Neil.

 

Still no sign of 60163 at Plawsworth near Durham... Now at least 1 hour 25 down.

 

Has anyone seen the phantom A1 yet?

 

Passed Plasworth 2 Hours late.

 

Thanks for the update - no doubt it can claw a bit of time back at Tyne Yard.

 

Passed Wylam now just 10 minutes down!!!

 

With a booked 2 hour layover at Tyne Yard, I thought that they would pull a fair bit back but even so, that is a very impressive recovery.

 

This is better than working for M.I.5.
They will be asking for recruits from this forum shortly.
