Well I'm mates with the driver so that's a good start and he got me a pass to ride on that day. I'm going to make sure I have enough battery power the next time I get to go and maybe I'll ride in a DX Diesel but it doesn't matter because what ever the ride would be good anyway. Happy YouTubing to you too!!:-)

Cheers, I would have had more video but the Video Camera ran out of juice, can't plug it in either as the power point in the cab was the UK type plug. Never mind, interesting how you can have a good cook up with the Hot Plate provided and of course, a cup of tea with the Hobbs Jug provided....with the UK type plug of course! How thoughtful those designers are in the UK. One Drives on the right hand side while the other cooks in the kitchen on the left hand side. lol
