Today might be 'Blue Monday' but we are certainly not allowing it to get us down ! Instead, we are reminiscing brighter times out on the mainline with Tornado in BR Blue Livery.

With more chilly winter weather forecast here in Darlington, we look back at some of our favourite snowy images of Tornado.

We would love to see your winter images of Tornado. You can comment below or send them to ❄️

We are looking forward to the sight and sound of Tornado back on the mainline after a difficult year, we are sure you are too. For 'the price of a pint of beer a week' you can help us to ensure she remains where she belongs.
