I would love to be a driver on a line with that scenery, and the calmness that accompanies the atmosphere... I also notice that the driver "feels and nurses" the train, instead of just driving it. Well done.
Excellent, I had a footplate experience ride on the NYMR in September the loco was B1 no. 1264 and the driver was Barney (the same driver on your video between Grosmont and Pickering). Great experience and one I can recommend to anybody.
Looks like you had a grand time! Very impressive how the slip at 13:35 was dealt with. Always amazed when they're stopped virtually before they start, its always good to know that a driver is in tune with his machine!
Hi.Richard.Looks I fired a number of locomotives in my time on the footplate I think I may have told I did 50yrs on the footplate finished my time out at longsight.Regards.Phil.
