Tornado reaches 100mph during successful speed testing Wednesday, 12th April 2017
Whilst undertaking test runs in connection with raising its permitted maximum speed, new Peppercorn class A1 steam locomotive No. 60163 Tornado has reached 100mph during trials conducted on the East Coast Main Line (ECML) between Doncaster and Newcastle.
Completed in 2008, Tornado is currently limited to 75mph, but it has always been the intention to run the locomotive at speeds up to 90mph to better fit in with other trains on the busy UK rail network.
