If you click onto the above link, this is similar to the type of job I do.But I also fuel and oil the locos and also attend wagon callouts.I used to work on this type of train,its strange being in the engine room whilst doing 125 MPH I just work on freight and the charter trains now.They have got to be fixed fast as costs can be £90 per minute if the main line is blocked.

The film shows a fitter on the east coast mainline.Something different anyway.Hope you like it.
Cheers
Martyn
