    This was my first mainline steam tour for 2 years and very enjoyable. VT's organisation was excellent, as was the friendly service from stewards. Tornado was superb. I was in the enthusiast coach behind the POB where I could hear the constant...

    She drew quite a lot of attention at Stafford amongst the locals! Our steward handed out at least 2 Vintage Trains tour brochures to people on the platform - nowt better than a gleaming steam loco to publicise your business!!
