LMS Black Five 45212 & 47832 with the Great Britain XVII 03&04/05/2025
The Claydon to Ipswich Leg was cancelled and the Tour went to Stowmarket Sidings ready for the Leg to Ely & Peterborough.
Tornado hauled the Tour from Newcastle to Peterborough and 45212 took over with 47832 from Peterborough.
*I provided a longer recording for the second shot to hear 47832 thundering past Brundall although Station announcements messed up the sound recordings*
