Скачать или смотреть Driving a Train at East Kent Railway

One of the items on my bucket list was to drive a train. After a bit of searching, I found that the East Kent Railway, a heritage site in the United Kingdom, offers a train driving experience on Into The Blue, an experience voucher website.

In two months, I was on my way to experiencing this unique feeling of driving a locomotive weighing dozens of tons myself. The crew: Clive and Andrew, were super nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. I learned a lot and would recommend this to everyone fascinated by machines, railways, and transport. The whole experience took about three hours.

I recorded it on a GoPro camera and edited it to show the most interesting bits. Clive told me many more stories and tidbits along the way, but on the recording, it was difficult to listen to it through the noise.

Enjoy!
