I would not want to do it at work every day,to much like hard work
You also get filthy dirty.Its not like a new train, where you just press a button and it will go, you need to arrive at least 4hrs before you need to move. It takes a long time for the boiler too generate enough steam.

so
Fil - there used to be a spate of things hitting the buffers in the shunt neck at Nevill Hill - carriages from loco stock would roll off the depot, down a steep as fuck hill and destroy the bufferstops at the end of the shunt nect (the neck is about 600 yards long too and steep as a cunt)

Why don't you fill the cunt up yourself?
Whenever I goto Skipton and get 10 mins there, I always give the screen a clean so I can see out of it - we have a cleaning plant on each platform that has bucket, bristle brush and detergent for de-filthing the screens - I like to see the signals and other random shit (when they don't dissapear into a crack in the screen, will post a picture of it tomorrow
)

) Got nowt at our depot,no fitters/supplies or fuck all
Units have to go to Canton(Cardiff),or Machy for repairs/service
The cleaning plant on the platforms would be good

A dirty screen is one of my pet hates and i will not take a train unless i can clean the screen
Have delayed lots of trains getting the screen clean. DSM did have a go at me but i told him its a safety of the line issue so he backed off LOL.
We are lucky if we get a broom and bucket at major stations

that screen wash nff that's gotta be some cunt who couldn't give a toss!
the cleaners fill every one that arives on depot. 9 times out of 10 a safety pin poked in the jet gets them working again

A DTM to be washing windows at Holbeck depot - nice to see Simon has found his vocation in life
I really must get this picture printed off and put on the messroom wall so he can have even more people taking the piss out of him
And this is the most writing I do on a fault book

I've been road learning Neville Hill TMD so the furthest I drove was 2 miles in each direction from the City Station
What you need is a 142 with 1 isolated engine - the wheel speed sensors only work on one vehicle then and you can get some massive 90mph wheelspins going

Had some 80mph wheelspins but then the power cuts out.
Units i was driving only do 75mph.
Proper bum clenching a few times this morning
Was doing 65mph with a 8car put the brake on and the speedo just dropped to 10mph , thought i was going to have a full on lock up LOL.
