At Abingdon. Visit to Didcot Railway Centre

Its not often tht we find the moorings alongside the swimming pool full when we arrive at Abingdon but is was yesterday. Todays boaty pic shows us moored on the eastern bank for a change.



And now on to the visit to Didcot Railway Centre. As you can guess or already know it has a very heavy bias to all things GWR so imagine my suprise when this dedicated LNER follower spotted this loco outside the shed.---- TORNADO 60163 in Brunswick Green even . What a treat.

A close inspection of the running lamps will show that all things on this modern loco are High Tec --- LED parafine lamps
I will post a set of pictures on Photo Bucket later today and attach a link to this post for you to see more of Tornado and some of the GWR locos in the running shed and restoration workshops.
