Tornado strikes Culross!
What a great Fathers Day! Brilliant presents and good wishes from all the family plus lunch and dinner prepared for us and also "Tornado"!
As a dyed in the wool steam-head, I was delighted to hear that this engine was to haul today's Forth Circle Railtour. She may be all steam powered but she is all of five years old. Not a rebuild or cobbled together from a collection of old bits, she is brand spanking new from buffer beam to tender.
We saw her first near Linlithgow but the photos I took were not too great so we decided to try our luck at Culross.
Even better, she stopped at Culross for water courtesey of Scottish Fire & Rescue so we got a close up look. A bit too close for MaggieD as she got "steamed" just as Tornado pulled out. Took a photo but all you can see is steam!!
