54Phan,
Another vote for "Lightning Boys", a cracking good read
Oh really! I thought it was tedious (unless you think that story after story about a No1 Engine Fire is worth reading over and over again!). And the last chapter! Talk about self-congratulation!!!
Try 'Buccaneer Boys' - much more entertaining and written by real characters!

PS. I suspect that 'Lightning Boys 2' is just the same!
