Best known as the star of Channel 4's hit series STEAM TRAIN DIARIES, Paul 'Piglet' Middleton's first book is a heartwarming and hilarious collection of stories from working, for thirty years, on the beautiful and historic North Yorkshire Moors Railway. Piglet brings readers into a world of steam, nostalgia, Yorkshire humour and some truly unforgettable characters. He has worked with engine royalty such as the Flying Scotsman, Locomotion No. 1 and Sir Nigel Gresley; acting royalty, including Tom Cruise and Harrison Ford; and even helped make a few things happen for actual royalty, namely His Majesty King Charles III. Well-known for his laid-back demeanour and love of 'all things oily', Piglet even has his own steam engine, Lucie, which he bought and restored with his family about a decade ago, and now runs on the NYMR. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which stretches for 24 miles between Whitby and Pickering, is a piece of Yorkshire like no other. So, climb aboard, sit back, keep your feet off the seats and get ready to be transported into a wonderful world of adventure, nostalgia and - of course - steam.
