You can still drive mainline steam in Poland at Wolstyn and it is a lot better value than Footplate experience in Britain. Definately worth saving for. It may continue for another 4 years. It is the experience of a lifetime: In the driving seat at 50-60mph with your hand on the regulator, even if someone is standing behind you ready to step in if you screw up!

Best wishes,
