In Finnish locos there were a pneumatic door opener ...no need for the doorman. Kylälä was also a Finn to invent the double exhaust system which was a vital reason for Mallard to record speed. Thanks for the video.

I would absolutely love to do that! I've done the standard tower tour, but not right up to the top. I am a rock climber, that top section looks easy but very exposed. I have done the ao nang tower in thailand, it has some very exposed bits too. You feel like it's all just going to fall, but of course it isn't.

Hello me old Mayeys. Poor old Brian against his own wishes was axed by the BBC, Brian expected after 63 years of loyal service and personally knowing all the big name dj's at the BBC, he'd have some loyalty. Unfortunately not, Blackburn jumped at the chance of replacing Mathew's

When I was a fireman at Cardiff Canton in the early 1960s I never had a 'second fireman' I had to do it all myself. We normally used the firehole flap and rarely used the doors. I noticed the fireman did not put any coal in the back corners - this usually burnt the back of your hands. As for the driver wearing gloves - whatever next. That said wonderful video and long live the GWR,

LOVELY bit of film. We too often admire clips of these magnificent machines in action without offering proper tribute to the skill and very hard work of the fireman that made it possible. The split screen, showing both the train in motion and the work on the footplate, is a most effective presentation. Oh yes and back in the steam days, the "runners" would only have one fireman. He probably wouldn't work the doors, but would have to lift and lower the flap which covered about half the opening, as well as seeing to the water feed, dragging coal forward on the tender as necessary, watering it to keep the dust down and a lot of other jobs. True heroes.

It's great to hear Alan Freeman post 1967 and the days of the "BBC Passed for Security" stamped script and Fluff being able to self operate the controls, sounds great! 👍 Just sounds so much more liberated and vibrant.

I was an old oak common fireman back in the I never got a chance to fire a king but you must remember they would never to fireman on the footplate and if you are firing working the doors you would be doing that by yourself and working the injectors as well normally the driver would not be standing it would be on that some head very clever inventions where they would bolt on a padded seat to the wooden one and not get off it until we had reached our destination or we were getting relief
