Tea a railway institution enjoyed by many before the start of a shift.

Thanks! As it happens, I'm sitting here watching this whilst drinking a cup of Earl Grey, loose leaf.

[@Wallsrail]

Perfect!

Evening mr train man. Fantastic story about making T lol 😆

[@robertpearce2244]

Bro, I wasn’t going to watch this, but I’m 100% glad I did! Loved it! Now, I’m in the UK in September, where can I buy one of those tea cans? I’d love to take one home to New Zealand 😊

Oh lovely 254 was my old loco on the spa valley railway , thought I recognised the cab , spent many happy hours as a drivers assistant on this 37, good to see the hotplate is still in use too , as it came in handy a few times in the winter while on this loco 😊

Ah, but it doesn't taste the same. Bin there done that lol 😂😂, and yes loose tea does take some getting used to. 👍👍👍👍

In a Pway hut or van you can have a hot cup of char in around two minutes. Probably around the same time for the S&T dept.

Love this old technology how many kWh to boil a kettle is a favourite topic on the solar PV groups? How much diesel does a 37 use to do the Billy can?😮

[@Richardsrailway]

Bosch !

[@berwicksfinest]

Easier still get the groundstaff to be productive as long as they're not pre-used tea bags

[@gibbo675]

Should you hold the wire handle in line with the direction of pouring you don't need to hold the bottom of the can to get it to tip up. All done with one hand without the need for a towel. Best to practice with cold water first.

I remember my Dad having one of these enamel cans during his career on the railways with an enamel cup....tea never tasted so good.
