Retro Class 56's - WARNING 30 minutes of neighbour annoying thrash!

[@ZetanCrisp]

When I used to stand next to or run alongside 56's pulling away at Didcot station, I used to turn to jelly and almost cry with emotional overload, when I looked at the passengers on the platform they were completely blank as if nothing at all had just happened! One teenager said to his friend 'I can't see what people like about trains' and yet I bet he probably had a hot-hatch car with a turbo that he loved or would love one? I'd love to have been be able to show him or try to describe exactly what is going on inside the engine room of a loco, to change his mind. Saying that though, why aren't they curious as to what is going on inside them after hearing them and seeing the loads they are pulling? You'd think hearing a 37 or 56 pulling away would light up any ones curiosity and imagination? To them it's just a train? It's funny how we are all so different!

We all love all sorts of different things that makes everything interesting!
