Discussion
You know how it is, waiting for your train on a chilly platform. I was at Guildford this afternoon cuddling my paper cup of coffee doing just that, when this happened:
Unfortunately it wasn't the 14:34 going south back to mine despite heading in that direction. I managed to grab a very (un)exciting two minute video of it leaving which is at this Youtube clicky and it's almost a disappointment to witness the final "carriage" as it removes a little bit of the romance...

It's a shame that Tornado doesn't get the attention that Flying Scotsman generates as it is a truly staggering achievement.
I went to Martin Mill station (between Dover and Deal in Kent) today to see this fly past pulling what must have been ten or eleven carriages. A really impressive site. Electric trains just don't smell or sound the same!Gassing Station | Boats, Planes & Trains | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
