  • It's taken me a good while to get this done but finally got it done for Christmas! This is a cut down video of a footplate ride on Bullied Light Pacific 34092 "City of Wells" running from Bury to Rawtenstall on the East Lancashire Railway 14th September 2018.
    I would like to point out a couple problems with this, because I filmed it on two seperate runs from Bury to Rawtenstall with one camera each on each run, there are some clips that don't have the best continuity and with that one camera on seperate run situation it also means that the audio doesn't quite match up either but I've tried my best with it. If theres any other problems with it then just comment below and I'll try and fix it!
    I would also like to thank Driver Paul and Fireman Joanne for letting me set up the GoPro's and having to put up with me for whole the day, was a fun day on the footplate!
    With that being said, enjoy!

    Firing equally smooth left and right handed. Very good! Some firemen seem to refuse to learn. It’s the easiest way to really getting the coal into the back corners on wide boxes.

      Not good firing at all, i only watched about five minuets and was laughing. Why? 1. The foot shuffling rather than pivoting from the waist. 2 Appearing to ignore the bright white spots on the fire.3. Having to shovel from the driving side when firing to the left of the box. 4. leaving coal on the floor. Footplate should be swept after every round of firing. And before anyone tries to shoot me down I was a BR fireman and worked on 34092. I noticed that the technique For reaching the back corners seemed reasonable. The good thing about seeing these clips is I know i will fall asleep thinking of the good runs. Strange, i never think of the rough trips. T

    Takes me back to a 15 year old train spotter at Brookwood , circa 1961,watching this and others of her class hauling express services to Salisbury and beyond. Brookwood had no platforms against the fast lines so no speed limits. 100 MPH through the station was normal.

      Reason for that is because at the time of filming 34092 was facing south and the route going North from Bury to Rawtenstall is all up hill, so it allows you to see more of firing done

      It was normal during the days of steam. My late father was a driver on the LMS for 47 years. As a fireman he had to report to work 1 hour early to check all was well with the locomotive, sand and oil boxes full, everything clean. His driver sent him home one day to change his shirt from a blue one to white and a black tie!

      I mean, he's the driver, he could be checking their phone for whether the train is on time, or if they have a message/missed phone call from the 'Responsible Officer' (RO) for any emergencies just as an example. Just because they are on their phone doesn't necessarily mean they are updating their facebook status. I even look at my phone occasionally because I don't wear a watch whilst on the footplate

      Anna...then you have no idea what you are talking about! The "lady" is the loco fireman. The firemans role is to maintain a head of steam. That's exactly what she is doing.
      Nothing wrong with the others on the footplate not helping out.
