All aboard

I had read in the local news paper that the steam train Tornado was going to be at GWR Didcot railway centre over the august bank holiday weekend and I got word that the train had arrived at Didcot on the friday from some tweets on twitter I am of the age when I can still remember the thrill of going on a day out or on our summer holidays on a steam train. We took the train from Oxford to Didcot when we got off the train at Didcot you could see and hear the Peppercorn A1 Pacific locomotive, number 60163 Tornado in its full glory its been many years since a steam engine has been built and this one is no disappiontment. Allison Peter and I had a wonderful day out we made the most of our day perhaps one of the best bank hoilday mondays in a long time my photo's can been seen on flickr at http://www.flickr.com/photos/m3jfm/sets/72157622196386170/show/
