A1 60163 Tornado helped mark Remembrance Day by working a London to Norwich special on 11th November.

During its journey 60163, which carried a large knitted poppy produced by the ladies of the Corshen Knitting Group, paused near Imperial Wharf for the 2 minute silence.

In the coming months 60163 will enter the paint shop to be repainted in brunswick green.
