LNER A1 60163 'Tornado' at Manchester Victoria Railway Station with 'The Jorvik Express'

Published 2021-09-16
LNER A1 class 4-6-2 number 60163 'Tornado' calling at Manchester Victoria railway station with the outward working of 'The Jorvik Express' from Liverpool Lime Street to York on the morning of Thursday 16th July 2021.

Notice the flash during the departure at 1:18. The steam from Tornado caused the overhead power lines to short circuit when passing under the bridge - not something I have ever known happen before!

    The bright flash was when it tripped out the OLE's, broke a part of it off too.

    I saw this beauty from my office window this morning. Just did a quick google to see what it was and google sent me here!
