Thanks Geoff! Both Firing and Driving a steam locomotive is quite an artform, it is quite a challenging "balancing act" that most people do not realize. Oftentimes operating a smaller locomotive is more "tricky" than operating a larger beast! This is a well-presented video! What a fine day you had Geoff!! ;-)
Good morning Mr Smith
Two years ago, I also did a footplate ride on a French steam locomotive.
It was amazing!
