[legomad11]

[TheDrewStudios]

[trainlover479]

o and just to let you know, the biggest steam locomotive i ever had a cab ride in was a climax so it is pretty small compared to the black prince

[awolfpack343]

isnt the Black Prince usally used for heavy freight trains

[Mickael23y]

[LuigiLuigi8989]

[ShaurntheSheep]

[Jonny7railways]

[trainboy94]

What music did you use in the video where you were driving it.

[Marillionmad]

I am jealous but i have sat in the cab of the Flying Scotsman

[TurboJUK]

So have I, back at Railfest in 2004. I've also been on the footplate of the Hogwarts Express.

[donaldengine9]

Lucky!!

[trainlover479]

[TurboJUK]

Yup, it's a real engine, played by a GWR Hall class locomotive.

[Kanefan701]

So have I. I sat in Flying Scotsman's cab and it was a wonderful feeling. I love that engine.

[up4004]

Cool Black Prince is one of my favorite steamers.

[up4004]

So you drove the locomotive?

[TurboJUK]

To the end of the line. Then someone else tok over. I got to drive it back into the station, as you can see.

[samtucker1995]

Ive been on a real steam locomotive too. It was a Texas 0-6-0 Tank Engine. It doesn't run any more because it's been set to a Tourist attraction in a detached siding at a Railroad Museaum. I got to ring the bell!

[trainboy94]

[technoandrew]

OMG You Got To Drive Black Prince! How lucky are you?! If I lived nearer to a preserved railway I would probably volunteer to work there... ah well

[string227]

Can you take a picture of inside the boiler? I always wanted to see whats inside a steam engine.

[TurboJUK]

You'd need to take the engine apart to see inside the boiler.

[therailwayinspector]

or just undo the smokebox door :P

brilliant! a 9f! I like them

[TurboJUK]

Yeah, but that's not exactly the boiler.

[therailwayinspector]

i suppose, but i think that might be what he meant.

great video btw!

[arthurfanatic]

Dude, I really like the music you've used. Please can you send it to me?

[JoeltheSwedishDragon]

Absolutely brilliant!

Would like to take a ride with you driving, but we live in different countries...

[templedread]

Uau!!!!! You a luky person! Beautiful engine. 5 stars...

[BakasRvivor]

YOU OWN A FREAKIN TRAIN!? Sweet! 5/5

[TurboJUK]

I don't own it. David Shepherd does. I just work at the railway.

[NCStL576]

Oh I forgot that Black Prince was associated with your railway.

I must say, you look like James May from Top Gear.

[ronthecyborg]

you lucky bastard

[joeferrito]

totally. someday i'm gonna volunteer at mid-continent near the wisconsin dells, but all we've got up there is a mogul, a ten-wheeler, and a consolidation, but all 3 are out of service.

[theamateurbasher]

Excellent pictures and footage TurboJUK; looks like you had a bit of fun on the footplate. Five stars from me pal!

[wadloperz]

that loco looks so cool!

[QTXAdsy]

Ah yes the Black Prince, my favourite 9F :)
