点评:My wife knocked another thing off my bucket list when she bought me a day's driving experience of a steam locomotive. It was truly wonderful and a week later, the grin is still plastered across my face.
The day started with a safety briefing at 8:45am, followed by a visit to the engineering shed and a full briefing on the loco by the driving instructor. There are a maximum of 4 on the course, so everyone gets a good long go at driving both in the morning and afternoon. We finished around 5:15pm.
I'm not going to detail the whole day, other than to say that it is superb and well worth it. The staff are friendly and helpful and a joy to be with. Lunch is included in the course, and I was expecting sandwiches or some sort of buffet. It was a full roast, and delicious.
This is a wonderful and unforgettable experience and if you have the thought of driving a steam train in your mind, I would urge you to go for it, and do it at Bure Valley.

当天的活动从早上8:45的安全简报开始,然后参观了机车库,驾驶教练对机车进行了全面的讲解。课程最多有4个人,所以每个人都可以在上午和下午充分体验驾驶。我们大约在下午5:15结束。
我不会详细描述这一天的体验,只想说这真是太棒了,绝对值得。工作人员友好热情,和他们在一起很开心。午餐包含在课程中,我原本以为会是三明治或者自助餐。结果却是一顿丰盛的烤肉,非常美味。
这是一次美妙而难忘的经历,如果你想要驾驶蒸汽火车,我强烈推荐你去布尔谷体验一下。
