keep in mind im only 19....
last sunday i was at the rail transport museum in sydney australia.... i was asked to help fire up 2 steam locos.. 3526 and 2705. one after the other... i helped clean em both down from head to toe.. oil em both up.. and lit the fires... kept the fire goin to rais steam while the other 2 guys helpin went around and did other tasks... i spent the night in the shed it was frezzing.
all day i did small tasks for the drivers and i got a 45 min cab ride in loco 2705.. and was givin a lift back to campbelltown station on the train pulled up 3526... i got heaps of photos.. and the enginemen were so inpressed with my peformance that they asked me to come back next running day to help out.. it was quite a experence ill never forget.. and cant wait for the next running day
