    60163 Tornado was booked to work the Torbay Express on the 18th June 2017 but due to dry conditions and warm weather a diesel was used to assist so that the steam loco didnt start lineside fires.. On the run to Kingswear Class 66 66102 was on the front but on the return run it was put inside so Tornado was leading the train back to Bristol.
    The train is seen at Wick near Langport,Starcross,Burlescombe and Bathpool,Taunton.
