At Kings Cross I once worked a goods train to High Barnet, it was my first week working at Topshed after transfering from Enfield. Our engine was an N2 0-6-2T and we were running over London Underground Lines which had the third rail.
My driver on that day was driver Holman and he told me under no circumstance's must I pee out the side (as was normal on the footplate) Whether it would have killed me or not I'll never know as I did no peeing. Myth or not I don't know about that.
And yes Dave passing a heap of hot clinker just after some idiot had pissed on it was very unpleasant.
