I agree, I mentioned climbing up onto the top of a Stanier tender, in practice I don’t think it’s done now using the steps unless there is no...
They didn’t even think it was worth the effort to fit cab doors to tender engines. I don’t like climbing up onto the back of a Stanier tender...
Couldn’t agree more. We are now at risk of making life so safe that it won’t be worth living. How can reaching up the a top lamp bracket be...
