      Thanks mate 👍 it's always a pleasure going up to Hellifield, even though it's rained the past 3 times, lol. I didn't know what the steamer was before I got there, so it was nice to see again. It is a beautiful engine that. Glad you enjoyed it and hope you are well mate

    Cracking video as per usual. A bit damp but nothing to stop the enjoyment. Hopefully Mr Charlie had his donny rovers coat on. Skipton & Hellifield 2 nice stations. Thanks Pete.

    defined in the rule book, which is basically the 1950 BR rulebook, or by other local instructions:
    One whistle is a warning, and used before starting any move; and when entering a station in which another train is standing on an adjacent track (essentially a warning to anyone who might be "in between" coupling to be cautious before emerging etc); also used at certain defined points on the line, primarily whistle boards on the approach to crossings, and entering / leaving the tunnel.
    One long whistle - when authorised to pass a signal at danger.
    Two whistles to indicate to a signalman or shunter that a move has stopped clear of any points.
    Two crow whistles - when an engine is assisting, rear engine gives two crow whistles to front engine; reply from front engine before starting.
    Three or more pop whistles is a signal to the guard that braking assistance is needed (primarily used on unfitted trains). Also used for double heading if either driver needs to signal to the other that they need to stop.
    Series of urgent pop whistles - used if people are line side and don't acknowledge an initial warning whistle
    I had to look this up! But im glad i did as its taught me something new! I hope this is the codes you were referring to, when you coming to fitzwilliam i have sausage treats for charlie! 😂

      @donnypete  9 місяців тому +1

      It's a former shell of its former self that place. It is a great place tbh, a bit of a time capsule. But I suppose it's whatever and how ever you make it. It is a bit remote, and the people are very friendly. And the food is realy good 👍

    So the 47 as the backup loco should the steamer fail trail of thought. Do those locos communicate in any other way than a radio so the person in the back (47) gets the "We need help" message or can boiler based locos talk to disels?

    • @donnypete
      @donnypete  9 місяців тому

      That's basically hit the nail on the head mate. 90% of the time there's a 47 on the back for that reason
