Never ever tell me that tooting the horn and waving to children isn’t part of a train driver’s job; it bloody is. It’s the kind of publicity the railway can’t buy and sorely needs.
Dear @Virgin_TrainsEC and @DavidHorne,
I wanted to make you aware of some proper Christmas heroics that happened on one of your services yesterday - someone deserves a fanfare for this... Drop me a line, would you?
Approaching a footbridge on the Hounslow loop tonight. Small figures peering through the mesh, and a parental-shaped figure off to one side holding a brolly.
Thought “why not”, flicked the cab light on and waved to the smalls....
The first picture I ever had published (thank you @RAIL). A one in a million shot at Ealing Broadway of an @GWRHelp HST at the ton through Ealing Broadway; couldn't do this again if I tried!
