I visited GB Railfreight's new building to learn to drive a train on their state of the art simulator.
The train simulator is a based on a Class 66 Diesel Freight Locomotive with 8 speeds, a dead man switch and a signaller in a control room.

Since a child I’ve been fascinated by trains and big machines, it’s a dream come true for me to learn to drive a train and this would be one more step on my journey to become a real life action hero.
