when i left the footplate it was to transfer onto a british railway ship (god move too) when we docked in Dieppe i spotted a steam loco waiting to haul a train to Paris. so, i went ashore for a closer look at this steam breathing beastie!
Ok, it was of substancial size and looked quite powerful, but, as for its appearence it was like "a plumers nightmare" pipes untidily fitted everywhere. and when it was due to pull out it emitted this very effemant phweee!! we had better whistles on the little brighton terriers. No the french locos didnt do it for me either Locojoe
