Evening all. I'm writing this post having completed day two of the Great Central Railway's 2022 firing course. Today involved another heavy classroom session, including powerpoint presentations, video resources and written exams followed by a full walk through of the track layout and signalling arrangements at Loughborough station this afternoon. Once again, today was a very engaging and informative experience, very much unlike the serious lack of training we were subjected to at other places not far from here. Talk about wishing you'd done something years ago! I've included one quick snap from today which sees 78018 resting on No2 road on the shed frontage. The engine was given a warming fire this afternoon in preparation for four round trips tomorrow on, I'd guess, a DATEX. Cheers...
