Can a modern train driver step into a steam locomotive and take the controls?

Jess is an expert in driving the high speed Azuma, and she had a Train Sim World crash course in Flying Scotsman, but now we’re putting her onto a real footplate at Stephenson Steam Railway 🚂

Customer service excellence is what everyone @lner.co.uk strives for day in, day out - so delighted for it to be recognised at the #nationalrailawards.

“Package For A Friend” - making period products available discreetly on trains and stations - is now being rolled out by other train operators.

Back in the UK, and I felt it'd be unseemly not to partake of @lner.co.uk's new menu.

Take it from me - the steak bavette is *gorgeous*. 😀

If you get a chance to enjoy 'steaks on a train', do!
