70022 1958c Swindon

The shed staff at Canton haven't made a very good job with the Reporting Number here but 70022 Tornado looks in fine condition as it runs non stop through Swindon with the Paddington bound Capitals United Express from Cardiff. This engine was earlier based at Newton Abbot, the only Britannia there, from where it worked regularly on the Devonian between Newton Abbot and Bristol Temple Meads, but I think that by the date of this picture it may have been reshedded to Old Oak Common, where it joined their members of that class.
