    Terrific to see young Jack volunteering. I used to volunteer on Tulyar, and was always worried who’d carry on.
    Best of luck in your career Jack.

    Thank you so much. Really enjoyed the Pioneer services 👍 talking of mileage I have covered slightly over 1, 000 miles of haulage just with diesel locomotives. And yes it's on my laptop 😆

    Good video, but it seems really quiet? I usually have my volume set at 7, but I had to turn this up to 36 in order to hear it properly...
