Cab ride in steam loco today !

That looks like a load of fun,,,either your a giant or that is a really tiny cab.

Thanks! Yeah, the loco does look a little small. But then British locos are generally much smaller than North American ones.

I once saw a pic of the Flying Scotsman when it was visiting America. The pic showed the Flying Scotsman next to a Northern or Hudson (I forget which), and the Scotsman was quite small in comparison.

Having said all that, there was room for 4 men inside that cab. There was a driver, senior fireman, a sweeper (fireman in training) and myself. And we all had ample room, although I was trying hard to stay out of the way!

Cheers, Rob
