Posted by Bob Pickering (BP) on February 7, 2009  This is an incredible sight with the snow. Awesome catch. Posted by Dennis A. Livesey on February 7, 2009  A Snow Tornado! Fantastic! I see now the issue of catenary; but since it's railroading, it's all good. Great capture; thanks for letting us all see this wondrous sight of brand new steam. Posted by Stu Levene on February 7, 2009  Well caught, Ian. I saw it at Hadley Wood and Kings Cross but couldn't get a decent shot...too cloudy. Great to see thousands of enthusiasts (young and old) out to see it. Posted by andy parr on February 7, 2009  Fine shot,good timing. Posted by Chris Nuthall on February 7, 2009  Sun and snow together - what more could you ask? Looks superb. Posted by John Palecki on February 7, 2009  Check out those drivers. 96" or so? Plus that must be the leftovers of the extraordinary snow the Brits had. Nice photo to see. Posted by Steve Armitage on February 8, 2009  Ian, this is a wonderful, stirring sight to gladden the heart of any steam enthusiast. A fine-looking rake of stock too. To all those prophets of doom and misery in the current economic climate - I say "behold the fruit of faith and determination"!
