Tornado in Wimbledon Depot?

[phil281]

I saw Tornado, in steam, sticking out the shed at Wimbledon depot this morning. Why is it there?

That explains thank you, however it wasn't in the lathe part it was actually poking out the main depot. Guessing because it was in steam it was ready to leave.

3417 has been moved to "warm storage" at Wimbledon, and seems to have been in use as a shunter for visiting steam locos and heritage carriages!
