3 Days to Railfest 2012! 30th May 2012



3 days to go.........!



3 years ago - in 2009- Tornado, the first new steam  built in the United Kingdom since the  dieselisation of British railways in the mid-20th century, makes its first main line public run - from York to Darlington, Durham and Newcastle before returning to its base at the National Railway Museum . Seats on the train were reserved for supporters of the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust, the organization that built the locomotive.
