Today saw us toddle off to our nearest station to watch the Winton Train pass though travelling from Harwich to it's final destination – London.

One of the reasons we went was to see 'Tornado', the locomotive pulling the train, because we haven't seen it 'in the flesh' before and because it was built only last year.

Needless to say the experience lasted only a few seconds at the speed at which it was travelling but we're glad we went.
