This weekend saw the long awaited return to service of 60163 Tornado following completion of its latest overhaul. The engine had been on test at the Great Central Railway, and this weekend saw the Peppercorn A1 pacific put to work hauling passenger trains. This would be its final appearance at the railway before leaving for testing on the mainline, apparently, its due to go to Tyseley for mainline testing.

We attended on the Sunday, having attended Severn Valley Railway on Saturday for their Super Saturday, so a busy but fun weekend for us. We were at Quorn & Woodhouse station for the day. also in service along with 60163 was 48305, 6990 Witherslack Hall and 50017 Royal Oak, so some good variety of traction here.
