Tour Scotland video of The Cathedral Express steam train arriving at the railway station on visit to Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. First steamed in 2008, after a 19 year project to fund and build the locomotive, Tornado was built to be not a replica, but the 50th A1. The locomotive is currently painted in British Railway's Express Passenger Blue, a livery which was carried by the A1s between 1948 and the early 1950s. Tornado has 3 cylinders, 6 driving wheels and a firebox of 50 square feet. During its short life Tornado has twice hauled the Royal Train.
