DRIVING AND FIRING STEAM LOCOMOTIVES - Clive Goome, 3 disc set, 240 mins, DVD no.GRD2950

DRIVING & FIRING A STEAM TRAIN Clive Groome, one of the most experienced enginemen in the country, shows us how to fire and drive four very different steam engines. From lighting up in the morning to disposing of the engine at night, Clive takes us through what is required of a fireman for a successful day's steaming. Switching roles, Clive then demonstrates how to drive a steam locomotive. every aspect of the job is covered from observing signals to understanding the dangers of letting speed run away with you. DRIVING & FIRING THE BIG FOUR Enginemen Clive Groome worked on all the main express locomotives back in the glory days of steam. In this DVD Clive studies the very different engines made by the "Big Four" railway companies. Having fired the Kings and Castles, he compares the Western engines with the machines of the LNER. Clive also speaks about LMS's Stanier Pacifics with their bigger, wider fireboxes. Finally, Clive boards Bulleid's Southern express engines and examines the performance of these more modern machines with their tendencies for going into a slip. KING FOR A SUMMER This is the inside story of 6024 "King Edward I" and her storming performances at the head of the Torbay Express service during the summer of 2008. Having taken over from the Bullieid Pacific "Tagmere", the 6024 Preservation Society was determined that their engine would stand up to the gruelling challenges of Whiteball Bank and the hilly spine of land that separates Paignton from kingswear. The TV documentary crew rode with 6024 for several weeks and the resulting documentary provides and exquisite insight into how the King reigned supreme for a summer.
