Which one were you “stoking” on Johnnie? The one at the back getting towed along ? How many tea cans did you have swinging about? Cheers Dennis.

Hi Dennis it was the front engine which you did all the tea on as you could drop off and wait to pass it to the crew and run back to get the next one between keeping the boiler stoked up as that way you did not spill the tea,it was hard graft mate.

Spoken like a well trained “professional” Johnnie,I suppose you were still carrying out the same routine in your later years at Pickfords----only you’d have swapped your clogs for trainers mate,I think!!! Cheers Dennis.
