Yes there is a few of us around.
I was right.. Redrock was the conductor. the Fireman's name was ....Wally!
Capt Wally, you really should have know that..

Come all you rounders if you want to hear
The story of a great engineer
He's the greatest of them all they claim
Number one his engine Casey Jones his name
Casey Jones
Steamin' and rollin'
Casey Jones
You never have to guess
When you hear the tootin' of the whistle
It's Casey at the throttle of the Cannonball Express
Well there's Casey junior and the Red Rock too,
Fireman Wally and the rest of the crew,
In a thrilling adventure that's a lot of fun,
For when Casey takes the throttle for another run.

Ah, Casey Jones, he went on to be The Skipper, along with Gilligan, The Professor, Maryanne, Thurston and Lovee ......
As a young boy my earliest professional desire was to be Casey Jones. I grew out of that when Thunderbird Two came along, and that's what I was going to do when I grew up.
Haven't quite grown out of the I'm going to be a pilot stage.

It's such a bloody British expression.
Because they've gone for so long without a decent fighter.

Anyone remember them? Did a tribute song to Hawaii 50
'Steve I want to say thankyou
for all you've done for me
the nights are dark and empty
when you're not on tv........'
Those were the days indeed.
