[dannytherev]

I know this may sound boring to most of you Phers but the all new 60163 Tornado steam loco is in the SWales area today as seen on top gear when Mr Clarkson was firing her for that race with captain slow in the Jaguar XK120 and Hammond on that old bike (sorry I couldn't remember te name of it)anyway it is in Carmarthen until approx 16:45 today it will then head back towards Swansea stopping at Port Talbot for water at approx 18:20 from there up to Newport at approx 19:30 and finishing at Bristol at approx 20:35 Just thought I'd post this info as this doesn't happen very often (esp down this way)

I wondered why all the trainspotters were standing on trostre road bridge earlier.

Not really into trains but might pop down the station with my daughter for a look

Daniel - any idea how long it will be at Port Talbot? And am I right in assuming it's using the main line (I don't know if there are any others) - if so may pop down to pyle to take a look.
