01:57 - And what's it gonna be used for generally?
02:10 Is it for the commuter train every day or?
02:12 - I don't know, to be honest.
02:14 I don't know what the big plans are.
02:16 Like I said, people say it's gonna be used for the diner,
02:19 but I don't think that's a good option.
02:21 - Because?
02:23 - It's a steam engine, it makes it romantic,
02:26 you know, when you're at the diner.
02:28 I think it will be used on things like High and Mash,
02:30 which is near enough for normal service road.
02:32 And I think it will be used on commuters like this.
02:34 And then, obviously number 12 has just gone out of service.
02:39 Number eight goes out 31st of January,
02:41 so it might be picking up the slack,
02:43 like it was meant for in the first place.
02:46 - Yeah, and then there's sort of service trains,
02:48 where it's trained, breakdowns.
02:50 - Yeah, yeah, all that sort of stuff.
02:51 You know, might do the first service train in the morning,
02:53 then put the steam in the middle,
02:55 take the weight off the steam as well.
02:56 - Yeah.
02:57 I think over here in some passengers this morning,
03:02 they were a little disappointed
03:03 it wasn't a steam today.
03:05 - So, you know, we did it on the High and Mash two weeks ago,
03:08 and obviously there was a lot of woman in there,
03:10 and oh no, we're over diesel, we're over diesel.
03:13 But then all fairness, by the time it got to the end of it,
03:15 there was so many people down there
03:16 and taking pictures, because it was something different.
03:19 - Yeah.
03:19 - You know, it was like an enigma,
03:20 you can't put it out, and then all of a sudden,
03:21 it's popped out.
03:22 - There it is, it really does work.
03:23 - Yeah, everyone was amazed by it.
03:25 - Yeah.
