Tornado

Tornado is an express engine that works on Mr Williams' branch of the LNER.

Personality
Tornado is normally a calm and collected engine, and rarely lets things go to his head, despite the fact that he has done arguably the most exciting jobs out of any of the main 5 (which include pulling the special train of Queen Elizabeth II, transporting rock band The Scorpions, and appearing on popular motoring program Top Gear). However, he has been known to get bad tempered when things don't go to plan, as demonstrated when he, Mallard and Evening Star were trying to breach the wreckage of the Gasworks Tunnel following it's collapse. Interestingly, he was the one only engines who tolerated Clan Line, due to the latter's keen interest in his illustrious past, though he later lost all respect for the latter following the Hull accident.
