He's giving hand signals to the driver, which is what was done before radios were cheap and small enough to issue to all the personnel. In North America at least, there are "Day" signals (Come Here/ Go Away) which aren't dependent on which way the engine is facing, and "Night' signals (Forward / Reverse) which depend on which way the designated front of the locomotive is facing.
I've looked up 65033 and found out that It's a J21 0-6-0 tender engine designed by T.W worsdell and was built in 1889. It's the only survivor of its class.
Did anyone else notice according to the gauge on the 08's main tank, it's running on fumes!
08's got a header tank that holds 70 gallons of fuel, so zero on main tank does not mean the loco is empty
Love how the engineer spends NO time actually looking at his conductor…
Reminds me of Preston in the 80s thanks😃
Glad I could spark some memories. Thanks very much for watching - Adam
It is a class 03. I can tell by the smoke stack. :)

I wanted to see someone get into the brake vans and slam the brakes on for lolz!
From the sound they are making I think somebody has! The 08 will just drag it along anyway 😂
I like the ex LNER steam locomotive. What class is it?
I'm not sure
