The 60163 Tornado, which last visited the Wee County two years ago, passed through the old Alloa Train Station by the Leisure Bowl last Tuesday evening (23 June).
Hauling the Belmond British Pullman carriages, the A1 pacific class engine visited the Wee County as part of its evening tour around Central Scotland and Fife.
The Tornado, which was assembled in Darlington in 2008, is the first mainline steam locomotive built in Great Britain since 1961.
Advertiser readers Alan Paterson and Robert Thomson kindly shared some of their pictures of the engine, which was financed and built by the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust and named by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales at York station in 2009.
Alan wrote: “I’m not really a train spotter, it was just an unusual sight.”
