DescriptionTornado Peppercorn in York.jpg |
English: New build steam locomotive No. 60163 Tornado at the National Railway Museum in York.
Based on the design of 1940s LNER Peppercorn Class A1 locomotives that used to pound up and down the East Coast Main Line past this very spot, she is pictured here in one of the two turntable access sidings on the north side of the Great Hall, being examined on a rare rest day in between main line trips. Unlike her forebears however, Tornado's duties are not in ordinary passenger service on the Eastern, North Eastern and Scottish Regions for British Railways, but on more leisurely dining/railtour trips all around the country (although as a certified new build she is still theoretically capabale of 100mph+ operation, and already passed to run at 75mph on the main line). Today was a sunny summer Tuesday, and Tornado had arrived at the NRM on the Monday in a positioning move from London, having spent the weekend hard at work on circular tours of the south east out of London terminals, performing one trip on the Saturday and two on the Sunday. Today she was also being posed alongside the famous speed record holding locomotive and NRM resident, No. 4468 Mallard (pictured in this image on the other siding). This was because the next day Tornado was to be given the honour of towing Mallard to the NRM's satellite site, the Shildon Locomotion Museum in County Durham. This would be first time Mallard would be seen on the main line for a number of years, having been a long term static exhibit here a few yards away inside the Great Hall. See this image for a picture of the move taking place. Having duly performed this task, never allowed to rest, later in the day Tornado returned to York, before leaving for a positioning move across the Pennines to Crewe, in readiness for yet another tour the day after on the Thursday, this time a return trip to Carlisle. Having debuted in January 2009, this was her second year of main line operation, and by now issues were arising with the boiler due to the cycles of heating and cooling experienced on this kind of work, something the original locomotives never had to encounter, as they were kept in steam for days at a time. At the start of the month her boiler had required repairs in London, and when further issues were found after a move back to London on Friday, she was withdrawn from service for further repairs.Magyar: A Tornado Peppercorn gőzmozdony a yorki vasúttörténeti múzeum épülete előtt |
