I spent a week down there for my schools work experience program, we’re I got fire the locos for the day( not number 3 but I was on number 5). Also did a bit of driving. The loco crew are really nice guys( I know all three of them). Hope you enjoyed it
It was such a great day!! Super impressive engineering and you're right, the guys are all super friendly and made the day 💛 We were honestly very fortunate to get on as the last 2 tix available for the next 2 week period were on the one day we had free!!! And with the crew shortages, it sounds like a few extra hands would go a long way to making this an experience available to many more in the future. Is this something you'd like to do in the future?
What a nice train. I love the carriages. Its cool that they tell you all the history of the area while you are exploring. I have never seen a train turn around like that it was really interesting. xx
This train ride proved to be a lot more interesting than we expected! We had no real expectations, but taking the ride was such an experience, with so much history and engineering facts shared! Perfect for a history nerd 🤓
This one was pretty awesome! The system that helps the train climb the mountain and to reduce speed on the down hill is cool! Do you know of any unique trains in your area? We’d love to add some to our travel list for the future!
Must have boiler water contamination to blow down a boiler in full pressure. Normally done in the workshop depot before the start of the day at low pressure.. not surrounded by passengers watching.. an fun day well done and thanks.
