Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The need to learn the skills necessary to drive a steam locomotive safely and efficiently did not disappear with the end of the Steam Age on Britain's railways. Indeed, such knowledge is vital to the future survival of the many successful heritage lines in operation today, many of which offer footplate courses to would-be drivers, a testimony of the enduring appeal of working with steam.First published in 1998, this is a reprint of an indispensable guide for footplatemen and aspiring heritage railway volunteers. Packed with diagrams and detailed text, every aspect of working with steam locomotives and their equipment is covered. In this comprehensive practical manual, former BR steam engineman Brian Topping conducts us along the traditional learning path from cleaner to fireman to driver, reminding us that for all the glamour of the footplate, there is also a great deal of dirty and strenuous work involved.With nearly 300 illustrations, including more than 70 diagrams, this is very much a 'hands-on' guide to all aspects of the various types of steam locomotive likely to be encountered on today's heritage railways. It covers not only the mechanical anatomy of the locomotive, but also such matters as maintenance, lubrication, braking systems, valve gear, firing techniques, footplate controls, basic railway signalling, and much more. It concludes with descriptions of typical journeys from both the fireman and driver's points of view.Whether you are an established driver wishing to brush up on your locomotive knowledge, an armchair enthusiast, or a would-be volunteer keen to get your hands dirty, this is the indispensable aid to safe and successful steam locomotive driving and management.
