Whilst we are in lockdown our team have visited Tornado to check all is well. Time was taken to move the locomotive up and down the yard at the National Railway Museum. This keeps things moving & enables the grease to get round the cannon boxes.

There's no clear-cut dividing line between the projects covered on https://t.co/JMkWO0taFd and the replicas of early locos that can be seen in action in museums around the country. For this feature, we took a look at these interesting little engines https://t.co/yB9FMCJfCv

[New Build UK @NewBuilduk]

A couple more highlights to share from the last few years of https://t.co/JMkWO0taFd - here's our look at new build projects outside the UK. https://t.co/mBYV7kM5Bj #newbuildsteam

[New Build UK @NewBuilduk]

Continuing our look back at highlights from https://t.co/JMkWO0bzNF, many readers found this interview with Mark Allatt of the A1 Trust very insightful and informative. https://t.co/6gDMvOrujp #newbuildsteam

Merry Christmas from https://t.co/JMkWO0bzNF! For today's look back, here's an article from another day of tradition - our April Fool's story from 2018 https://t.co/Ard0qkGkeC #newbuildsteam

[New Build UK @NewBuilduk]

Continuing our look back at highlights from https://t.co/JMkWO0taFd - our one foray outside standard gauge was this look at broad gauge new build, and surviving original locos as a bonus. https://t.co/JXZou1CvM3 #nebuildsteam

[New Build UK @NewBuilduk]

The Flickr pool isn't really a feature though, so for today's look back, here's one of several ventures out of the site's usual scope, looking at New Build Diesels in June 2018. https://t.co/1t0xWtEWo8 #newbuildsteam

[New Build UK @NewBuilduk]

Another element of https://t.co/JMkWO0taFd over the years has been the Flickr group pool - thank you to everyone who has shared their pictures in it! And please keep doing so - it will keep running. https://t.co/eNFEx4XSeJ #newbuildsteam
