One thing I will take is that in my 3 years on the footplate roster there was that I fired some cracking engines, 7822 'Foxcote Manor' and Black 5 44806 from the home fleet. Plus 70000 'Britannia' and 'City of Truro' as a few of the visiting engines I've had the pleasure of firing.

I'm currently looking at 4 possible railways, but have yet to decide which 1 I will join as a loco cleaner yet!
Very envious of your history. Must have been great to run on the Brit. Were you on when Pete Waterman was on the footplate too?
Anyway good look in your hunt and hope it all works out for you.
Cheers
Phil
