LNER Peppercorn Class A1 No. 60163 Tornado is a 4-6-2 steam locomotive completed in 2008 to an original design by Arthur Peppercorn. It is the first newly built British mainline steam locomotive following the completion of No. 92220 Evening Star in 1960, and the only Peppercorn Class A1 in existence after the original batch was scrapped. In 2017, Tornado became the first steam locomotive to officially reach 100 mph on British tracks in over 50 years.

  • LNER Peppercorn Class A1 No. 60163 Tornado is a 4-6-2 steam locomotive completed in 2008 to an original design by Arthur Peppercorn. It is the first newly built British mainline steam locomotive following the completion of No. 92220 Evening Star in 1960, and the only Peppercorn Class A1 in existence after the original batch was scrapped. In 2017, Tornado became the first steam locomotive to officially reach 100 mph on British tracks in over 50 years. After the project was founded by the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust in 1990, construction of Tornado began in 1994 and mostly took place at Darlington Works, with other components manufactured elsewhere. The project was financed through fundraising initiatives, public donations, sponsorship deals, and hiring out Tornado itself for special services. The locomotive was granted its mainline certificate in January 2009, having been designed in compliance with modern safety and certification standards. Tornado has worked on heritage and mainline trains across Britain since 2008. In 2022, it was withdrawn for overhaul. (en)
  • La locomotiva A1 Peppercorn 60163 Tornado è una locomotiva a vapore costruita dall'A1 Steam Locomotive Trust in ricordo delle locomotive del gruppo A1 Peppercorn della London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) ed entrata in servizio nel 2009. Il gruppo A1 Peppercorn, progettato dalla LNER tra il 1946 e il 1948 sotto la direzione di Arthur Henry Peppercorn per la linea dorsale est (East Coast Main Line) Londra-York-Newcastle upon Tyne-Edimburgo-Aberdeen ed entrato in servizio sotto l'amministrazione delle British Railways, venne giudicato fra i migliori gruppi di locomotive del parco inglese. Sebbene tutte le unità che lo componevano fossero state demolite fra il 1964 e il 1966, la considerazione per l'attività di progettista del Peppercorn e dei suoi collaboratori suggerì a un gruppo di appassionati, poi denominatosi A1 Steam Locomotive Trust, l'idea di costruire a nuovo una locomotiva del gruppo A1 Peppercorn, con l'obiettivo di completare l'opera in tempo per partecipare alle manifestazioni previste per il 175º anniversario dell'inaugurazione della ferrovia Stockton-Darlington. Sviluppato il progetto e grazie a un'intensa attività di sensibilizzazione che permise di reperire con donazioni di privati e di aziende industriali la somma necessaria, l'A1 Steam Locomotive Trust poté attrezzare una propria officina e fare costruire in stabilimenti specializzati le componenti della macchina, che venne montata e collaudata nel Regno Unito e autorizzata a circolare nel 2008. Denominata 60163 Tornado, dal gennaio 2009 essa viene utilizzata regolarmente per la trazione di treni turistici e rievocativi. (it)
  • 60163 Tornado — магистральный пассажирский паровоз типа 2-3-1, построенный в Дарлингтоне (Англия) в 2008 году. Это первый в Великобритании паровоз, построенный после Вечерней звезды (1960 год), то есть после почти полувекового перерыва и спустя 40 лет после окончания эпохи пара (1968) на Британских железных дорогах. Строительство локомотива велось под руководством английского железнодорожного благотворительного фонда на основе конструкции London and North Eastern Railway, но при этом были внесены изменения, направленные на повышение безопасности, улучшение эксплуатационных свойств, а также для соответствия современным железнодорожным стандартам. Своё название паровоз получил в честь истребителя Panavia Tornado. В настоящее время паровоз 60163 Tornado эксплуатируется на железнодорожной сети Великобритании и на магистральных исторических железных дорогах. (ru)
