Spent a top evening celebrating 25 years of @60163_Tornado & the @RoyalAirForce working together last night - here’s @BunkerGraeme making a speech from across the room.

Food was top-notch; company even better; ace seeing @RAIL, @MrTimDunn, @steve220459, @FlywheelMedia1 & others.

Until this week, I hadn’t really considered what the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust is planning to do. Not just run 2008-built @60163_Tornado, & @Gresley_P2_2007 from c.2023, but also a new LNER V4 too. A complete steam fleet to use on a 21st Century mainline: https://www.v4steam.com
