Please keep an eye on this page for the annual diary of Tornado’s 2017 main line tours. More details will be published on this website as more trains are finalised.
The A1 Steam Locomotive Trust is proud that Tornado will continue to be operated on the Network Rail main line by DB Cargo, which has worked successfully with the Trust since the locomotive’s completion in 2008.
