    If you're about the Saturday come and say hi, I'm the rostered fireman though my cleaner is under examination so not sure how much firing I'll get to do.

    There's me climbing down from the footplate. Had an excellent day myself firing the S160 on my own for the first time.
    The railway overall appeared busy and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, hope you enjoyed your visit too Paul :)
