Saw this in the DM today

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ars-fire-trick-light-passes-Devon-tracks.html

'What the blazes: Was one of Britain's best-loved steam locomotives on fire?
Tangmere was filmed 'on fire' as it passed through Dawlish in Devon on Sunday
Video shows the heritage loco with what appear to be orange flames and smoke pouring out of driver's cab
Locomotive owners say that there was no fire and no one was hurt'

Trick of the light?

It has already been confirmed that there was no fire and the crew were fine so probably a trick of the light/the digital camera trying to guess what it was seeing in the dimming light.

There is already a thread about it somewhere on here.

There was a thread about this on WNXX too. Seems the press have finally caught onto the wibble. :)
