The first step toward your firing test is a face to face ‘interview’ with an inspector or senior driver, and so one Saturday I found myself in civilian clothes at Weybourne Station with Driver and NNR Director Ed.
Sitting ourselves in a compartment on the service train, we spent the afternoon going up and down the line, talking about the railway and answering questions on locomotive anatomy, signalling and rules. Ed seemed happy with my answers, which as you might hope were pretty strong on the loco technology but revealed a few holes in signalling - I must brush up on lamp colours.
Life can be hard sometimes!
