Footplate Padre - Grafton Locomotive Depot this morning - we are visiting Delma's 90 year old mum and Delma's sister - on such visits I make a bee hive for the locomotive depot - this pic shows the view from the cabin of a 48 Class diesel looking along the footplate and engine compartment 'ahead' - this was the same view the driver had in the days of steam with the steam engine compartment and footplate in front of the cabin. In the days of steam the fireman would stoke the fire - which I did on the late '60s as a fireman stationed in Goulburn.
