Nothing official on the Bluebell's website yet, but it would appear that 'Tornado' won't make the visit to the Bluebell. The A1 is still stripped down for repair at the Nene Valley Railway and the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust's website has an update which states that they expect to resume their duties on July 10th with the RAF 100 railtour from Lincoln to London.

The Bluebell have announced that they haven't been able to arrange for 'Tornado' to visit in August as planned, and the visit is 'postponed' but with no alternative date yet.
