Tornado

The Cathedrals Express London Euston to Kiddiminster and Worcester steam excursion hauled by LNER A1 class 4-6-2 60163 Tornado arrived at Rugby this morning two minutes early for her scheduled water stop courtesy of the local fire brigade. She still has her admires with a good crowd scattered on various platforms and nearby Myson House although her compliment of carriages did not do her justice and were looking disheveled and tired. She left on time but was reported as losing 11 minutes as she went through Coventry just 10 miles down the track so must have had a signal go against her.
