Guy climbs aboard a BR 2MT steam locomotive in Darlington for his first proper driving lesson. With the fireman managing the boiler and the driver guiding him through regulators, brakes, cut-offs and the feel of the engine, he learns how to get a steam train moving, stopping, reversing and running smoothly. It’s noisy, hot, hands-on graft — and a full-on introduction to the skill and finesse behind classic steam driving. Part of The British Train That Changed The World — now on Channel 4. A proper watch, this.
