[Seabrook]

The Class 66 has a fan assisted heating element. On the first position it blows warm air but not enough to heat the cab on a cold day. In positions two and three the fan becomes very noisy and blows very hot air onto your legs. Many drivers prefer to switch the heating to first position and set the Hotplate to maximum. That seems the best compromise. For food if you place a few pieces of ballast on the hotplate then place a Steak & Kidney Pie wrapped in tinfoil on the stones, it cooks a treat. Very few drivers I know still have the billycan of old, I would say they may still be used on Ballast Trains by DBS, Heavyhaul, DRS or GBRf traincrews. Class 37 & 47 had urinals but their use ceased when boilers finished on Diesels, this due to the water tanks not being refilled on servicing points. Other locos may have had urinals but I can only comment on Engines I worked on.
