This Group is for anyone who is interested in what it was like to work on British Railways as a footplateman during steam days. Also looking at the at the history of steam working and the demise of the steam age. I was a fireman at Enfield and Kings Cross. Towards the end of steam I worked on some mainline diesels. Early diesels and heritage lines can be discussed. Also Modern diesel electric and any railway news. This group does not discuss the usual engine movement and sightings stuff there are hundreds of other groups that do that. Please do not join this group just as an observer only join if you wish to take part in group discussions. HTML code:
