Notes :
(1) 67006 on the rear.
(2) John Clifford comments: This was the first of two trips this day using 'Tornado'. There was a late start due to the stock not arriving until 10.35. Having got back on time we were stopped outside Farncombe (14.16-22) due to "drunken trespassers on the track" (we were told over the Tannoy).
