05:18We're looking out now towards the depot, we'll show you around the steam shed first.
05:31Now inside the sheds and workshop, this part opened in 1995.
05:47That's waiting right in overhaul, ordering tickets out.
06:05It'll be in the workshop as a working progress.
06:12This one's at the bottom section, so they didn't have the bar to wrap it right.
06:17Put them all back in.
06:22This one's at the bottom section, so they didn't have the bar to wrap it right.
06:29Put them all back in.

07:29And a good variety of diesels as well.
07:31Actually, an industrial.
07:33Not that much of them.
07:35One peak.
07:37Yeah.
07:38Yeah.
07:39Most heavy.
07:40Nearest to the best.
07:41Yeah.
07:42That one was going to work on a Channel Corner Rally.
07:47Oh, yes.
07:48Yes.
07:49I reckon it wouldn't do it.
07:52Yeah.
07:53Alongside it is a London Northwestern six-wheeler.
08:05Mmm.
08:06Started life out in the 1890s with a six-wheel coach.
08:11Truly fun.
08:12Yeah.
08:13Yeah.
08:14Yeah.
08:35We're back on the station bridge now, awaiting the first steam coming in from the depot.
08:45There we go.
08:50A few German tourists have found this location.
09:07The kids are getting quite happy.
09:20This train is actually going to work the driver experience.
09:35They can learn to drive and fire and even do the good bits.
09:45There are three different places in the back of the room.
09:51The street harrow was located in the city at 2.6am.
09:54The people had to be out for the home.
09:57The people were in the right place.
10:00The people were in the right place.
10:03The people were in the right place to be out for them.
