We don't really care about power to weight ratio in steam traction, that's why we invented it for the bigger countries to exploit. We are only a very small Country....Oh sorry, I forgot The Mallard holds the world steam speed record at 126 mph, but that isn't really power is it, because it's not a big loco.
I have heard a rumor that Tornado being built to modern day standards would be capable of exceeding Mallards record 126mph ? It has achieved 100mph relatively easily, so love to see it.
Grahame .White the Scotsman achieved 100 before it was even updated in period, i can't see tornado being capable because of aerodynamics, that was what made an a4 superior to an a3.
This is a masterpiece. Thank you for filming this. PS to those who think this is Gordon, you’re not correct. Gordon is based of a Gresley A1 prototype, but no evidence suggests that it existed. He’s not even an A3!
Actually Gordon is based on the 1920 plans of the GNR A1s which the plans existed and A1s and A3s are basically the same thing except the A3s have high pressure boiler and the banjo dome and some double chimney
Gordon is based on the Gresley A1, Tornado is a Peppercorn A1. Gordon and Tornado would technically be siblings, along with Flying Scotsman. Scotsman was an A1 but modified into an A3.

Awesome loco .... so nice that it works well and is usable. Just wonder how easily it slips on dry rails when starting with 12 cars behind 2:45 and 3:29.
It's a fantastic steam loco. Currently out of traffic for repairs but back soon I hope. Not sure how easily it slips but personally not seen it slip too much over the years I've seen it. Thanks very much for watching and commenting. Regards - Allan.
It was nice to see the A1 under that magnificent roof Anthony. A very interesting departure and that ice cream would have tasted nice on a very warm day. Many thanks for your comments. Regards - Allan.
I once saw this at York station a few years ago on my weekly commute from Edinburgh to Sheffield. Magnificent beast - made me glad that I didn't catch the through train and had to change at York.
Thanks for your comments David. It was quite a severe slip on both occasions. Lovely sight. Never seen an A1 in that spot ever even in steam days. Cheers - Allan.
Thanks very much for watching Cameron. Never seen 'Tornado' on this platform before and she sure made a magnificent sight under that roof. Best wishes - Allan.
You really nailed it today, Allan! great footage, variety of angles and shots ( but no boots!) Looks as if the McKever family had a great day with a double billing of steam at York. Thanks to both of you for the videos. :)
Thank you very much Alan and it was indeed a fantastic day out at York and Ian also made an appearance from across the Pennines and sampled the York Pumpkin (the tea is the very same standard by the way).

Here is an article and some text which may answer your question. www.a1steam.com/origin-of-the-peppercorn-class-a1s/ I hope this helps. Thank you for watching the video. Regards - Allan.
Tornado is pulling a heavy train and unlike the West Coast-operated Flying Scotsman special had no diesel on the back so a bit of wheel slip can be expected with 12 on.
Surely the Diesel on the back (when used) is usually idling since it's only there in case of a failure and so only adds to the payload the steam loco has to cope with.
@@mattlander9119 Thanks. I understand that sometimes it is used to help with accelerating the train from a stand, a practice I don't approve of (it's preferable to see what the steam loco is capable of on its own, as in the old days imo).
Great vid, was excellent to see from the outside view, felt & heard the slips from inside (was a steward onboard in coach G) I think both where well caught by the driver
Thanks for watching and thanks also for your comments. The wheel slip was well caught like you said as it was quite severe. Hope you enjoyed the trip even though you had to work during it. Best wishes - Allan.
cracking video Allan what about that wheel slip you were well positioned for it I kept an eye out for you but did not spot you amongst the crowds cheers Colin like you the majority of my filming of Scotsman was poor quality I have not bothered to post it.
Thanks very much Colin. I always think York isn't a very good place to film when the sun is shining. It seems to get in the way where ever you are except filming from platform 3 under the roof. Pity I missed you there. Regards - Allan. :-)
@@allan5919 Typical behaviour from a loco with rear carrying wheels, I'm afraid. More power=bigger firebox=trailing wheels to take the overhang=less adhesion=wheel slippage...
If there is one Gresley locomotive that I want to see the most, Tornado has my heart. I have his Bachmann model being shipped to my house as I’m writing this, and his livery is just perfect. Sorry Scotsman fans, but Tornado’s my guy
It's a beautiful steam locomotive and hopefully we will see it back on the main line once the work on it is complete at Darlington. Have great fun with the Bachmann model. Regards - Allan. 👍
Wow more 'TrainSpotters' than the old days, when perhaps ½ dozen or so would be on the station. Looks great in Apple Green. They only needed to be as powerful as demand for the task required of them. More than adequate in many cases.
Thanks for watching Grahame. These rail tours with steam locos do attract quite a large volume of spotters, especially this on 'Tornado' and 'Flying Scotsman'. Regards - Allan.

True, but there are many reasons they have pretty much stopped making trains, because so many foreign countries make trains for the UK now and the UK have so many other things to think about which are much more important and require that money they would use to make trains.
@@TheBrickGuy7939 sending money abroad even if their trains are cheaper is still false economy, at the end of the day the poor got richer, so the rich got poorer, thus making everyone poorer. How great Britain was colapsed as an industrial superpower, commoners wanted more than their country country afford to give them, with poor common people great Britain was the richest country in the world, demanding to much from their employers they shot themselves, their employers and future generations in the back. The richer the rich are the richer everyone is. The mistake of comparing our poor selves to the rich. Look how china is growing, because the rich are the richer every day, not the poor in the same rate. They want an empire like we once had, and are inspired by what we did to build it. Sadly short sighted buisiness around the world are fuelling them.
@@theant9821 It has even got top the point where trains are barely even designed in the UK anymore, although sometimes manufactured there like the Hitachi trains.
Richard Bolton, Jr. correction. This locomotive is an A1 class locomotive just like golden built to Nigels design. This particular engine is a brand new one built from the ground up to take a stand for steam preservation
The class is A1 and it's a Pacific as its a 4-6-2 wheel arrangement but it can be also described with the designers name included like a lot of steam locomotives are.
something about British steam draws me back to trains every time. though america has some pretty trains an example being sp 4449 daylight, and another being Norfolk and western 611 (only two I could think of) which are both powerful and beautiful, British steam just has something that american steam just cant match up to.
Yes there are some awesome steam locos in the USA Cameron from what I see on video. We are lucky here to have such an active steam preservation movement in most parts of the country. Many thanks for taking the time time to watch and comment. Best regards - Allan.
Personally I like Tornado is this Bright Green, I mean BR is ok but I just pefer this look Plus I consider Scotsman and Tornado as sisters Since Tornado is a A1 and Scotsman was a A1 for a few years

Ian Haenggi No. This is tornado. Flying Scotsman is a name given to A3 class locomotives which one of them is called Flying Scotsman (N° 4472) because it was hauling Flying Scotsman service
I'm not a great fan of this livery, which is LNER apple green but with "British Railways" on the tender. I think this engine would look best in BR Brunswick Green with the later version of the BR emblem on the tender.
Yes I suppose it does look quite a spectacle to those watching and taking a video but maybe not good for either locomotive or the track. Many thanks for watching. Regards - Allan.
The British perhaps didn't make the world's most powerful locomotives. But they sure as hell made the best looking ones

Why was Tornado built as an A1 and not as an A3?
I believe it was because we already have an A3 preserved. There was no A1 preserved.
It's a peppercorn A1 and not a Gresley A1/A3. The Gresley A1's were reclassed to A3 when the Pepercorn A1's were built
if only modern British engineering was still powering the world.
