That’s the best looking train cab I have seen I love model railway and trains but most cabs are far from what young boys dream they will be but somehow there really is a beautiful layout to this cab great stuff thanks for sharing.
Yep, it’s good to see them working (been nice to give it a bit more on the handle though 😜 but not complaining as it was really appreciated for the opportunity)
I used to drive these back in the day, it’s very rare to see the 7 standard instrument gauges across the panel. The far right is the boilers steam pressure gauge, most ended up being blanked once the boiler was removed after ETH was fitted. It’s all rather sad really, these magnificent locomotives along with the class 45/46’s & HST’s I used to drive have been replaced by utter shite. English Electric, Sulzer, Napier, Paxman engines replaced by utter crap & this is progress? People in charge haven’t a bloody clue.
It was draughty with cab doors and windows open unfortunately that affected a couple of spots of the video, but that was down to the weather. Hopefully it didn’t spoil it too much for you

I agree with you always liked class 47 cabs
Nice to see D1501 is doing well :)

You seemed to have some audio problems, but otherwise it was a good video
