Always good to see the Ribblehead Viaduct Toz and a real bonus to see it with a steam locomotive. Good that it is hauling tradition carriages of around the same age too. I think I have see the Tornado somewhere - possibly at York Railway museum. A fantastic scene and no wonder so many people are out with cameras. Nice one.

Good luck in the CWP. Herb
