The first steam hauled train of the year to travel through Warminster roared past on Sunday.  This was a special Valentine's Day trip to Bath in a train pulled by the famous Tornado engine.  Tornado was built by a team of supporters and first took to the rails in 2008.

Here's a link to a great video of the train near Upton Scudamore
