Wonderful video, huge kudos to all involved...shame about the narrator insisting on pronouncing every letter of every word, quite excruciating!

Ever since I first learned about Tornado I've been fascinated by it. The idea of building a brand new, modern steam train is an incredible feat of engineering and to see Tornado top the ton is amazing for me, never mind the people who've been involved in it's design, construction and operation. It feels appropriate that the newest Steam train in the UK should also be the fastest. I truly hope Tornado is a watershed moment; we CAN build brand new steam trains, so let's have more (I know the A1 Trust are doing just that) and get them certified for public line running so the locomotives from the last era of Steam can last that much longer.

And the first revenue run at 90mph, it dropped part of the centre motion onto the track. 90mph hasn't been mentioned again.

Several of these Peppercorns ended their days at Alfred Draper's Neptune Street, Hull breakers yard. None were saved, as we know, hence this new build. Nice to see....

Boys and their toys. Love it!

🚂🚃nkp 767 steam in the valley🛤🌤

I love how taps on the mile per hour gauge everybody that ever used to gauge i electronic or manual always tapped on it mechanical or electronic

I was on the last hst on the east coast main line and we hit 127 mph, but you forget the record breaking machines that went before. Locomotives that set the bench mark of speed . There legacy is still important. These machines pushed what was possible to the limit . And tornado is a majestic example of one of those machines .

why do they call that engine tornado?

CARMELLA IS NOT EVEN LOOKING UP THAT SHOULD TELL KING CHARLES SOMETHING 😮😮😮

there was a time where these fire breathing monsters could refill their water tanks without stopping, the british rail system had "water troughs" set up along the line that consisted of a narrow channel between the rails miles long, and full of water. The locomotive crew would drop a water scoop from beneath the locomotive down into the trough, and the water tank would be "rammed" full with water from the trough through the scoop, filling would take seconds.

Was that fire glow/sparks coming out of the smokestack?

The Queen was thrilled

So great that there are people who make this possible. A new main line Pasific doing 100mph with a proper train is awesome to see in modern world.

You can see that stuck up twit reading the names of the people he killed is detached from responsibility, not an appealing look of sorrow or deeper explanation, scared to look at the camera, reading his lawyers note, and going through the requisite motions and anticipation of getting the hell out of there.

Remember talking to a guy who had been a fireman on the GWR when they still had steam. He described how depending on the driver you would fire the engine for a hill, the worst ones he described as "head down ass up and shovel like F**k." Great seelng these lovely locos doing what they were made for.

What’s with the aspect ratio? Looks like it was filmed 20 years before it actually was.

Has Squadron Leader Graham Duff ever asked for 'two from the top, and one from the bottom, please'? Did it put a smile on his face?

No mention of Darlington where she was built, it’s not all about Doncaster!

I spent many happy hours at Potters Bar in the 50's & 60's watching these fantastic Pacifics roar through every 5 or 10 minutes especially on a Summer Saturday. So glad we have some preserved.

Steam truly stretching legs, with their running gear flying around and incredible passe is enough to stir the emotions to make a man cry. I hope one day here in north America may see one of our preserved steam legends do a similar speed achievement!

god bless all those old boys from a generation that will not pass this way again ..... and god bless the dutch for remebering them !

❤ from India..👍

Oh this is just glorious to watch!!!

He was the pilot in command - the responsibility was his.

WE HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING..ABOUT TORNADO ON THE NEW,S FOR ALONG TIM..INVITE WILLIAM KATE ABD THE KID,S THEY WOULD LOVE IT.

Plus he waved two handed so cute

He couldn’t even look at the camera or have the decency to remember any of their names whilst making families wait 4 years for his statement to police while driving a Porsche up a motorway claiming too sick to make statement! He had no right to speak my friends name or any of the others. He relied entirely on that piece of paper because he never cared!!!!

Don't let go out to illegals because they will only wreck it

Disgusting to close a famous station

The romantic era of steam locos can never, ever, be forgotten. Those were the days.......sheer poetry, melody, and awe inspiring.....

This one is for all the steam trains

Wow, wow, wow! That just goes to show what the team and the engine can do together in such a short time to keep steam well and truly alive keep up the good work keeping steam alive everyone from John and Nora here in kidlington in oxfordshire

The Dambusters were not based at Woodhall Spa until after the dams raid.

CR

Three buckers

Right on time in balcony

I love the music on 13:01, does anyone know who made this music & if it has a name too Please.

Absolutely fantastic 👏

Not trying to be cruel but Tornado is a fake its not an original A3 i wouldn't put a penny in to take a trip on it

oh dear Lincoln's MP shows his true colours and the fact he wants to stay on the gravy train

Few things. It's 3000. Not 2000. There's already 40 of them there working but they are migrants. Blue vests. The work is going ahead at a fast speed.

Thanks for posting this. Scampton Says No. Important to get rid of the so-called ethno-nationalists. Brilliant protesting, Rachael, Mandy and Sue. You've been at the main gates protesting from the start.

Thanks for sharing. We are in Northeye where it's nearly a year and no decision has been taken. We've been to Scampton a few times and support the opposition all the way.

Locals say ,.... Far Left + Far Right feck off! Freedom & Liberty for RAF Base Residents!

Disgusting! Moving 2000 people there is going to swamp the local community. The infostructure isn't there to to cope. Edward Leigh needs to step up and defend the base.

Wish she would do one

Stop Rewarding Start Deporting they are not wanted at scampton , Stop Rewarding Start Deporting after the bibby r*pes and the abuse of women and cvhildren where there migrants are housed VOTE REFORM

what about the ppl at gate 8 who have been there for months like wayne never mind sarah
