The A1 Steam Locomotive Trust has announced that the renovation of the new A1 No.60163 Tornado has begun.
After attending the East Coast Weekend on the Great Central Railway with Deltic 55919 Royal Highland Fusilia, the BR Standard Class 5 overhaul will not be completed.
The bidding tank has been removed from the frame to allow the preparation and maintenance of the European Railway Control System (ETCS).
The work of dismantling the locomotive for inspection and overhaul will begin shortly.
The tornado tender wheels will be brought to Devon today for reunion on January 27th. Plans for tornado overhauls can be found on the A1 Trust website.
