"Shunting"! You brought back memories.
My family had a scrap metal dealership and we had a side railway line on our premises from where we would load the steel into railway wagons. It will then go off to a company that would melt them down. A highlight for me was watching the steam locomotive shunting the wagons in the mornings.
The driver always gave that extra hoot when he saw us kids.
Yes, yes. We had a narrow railway in the forestry enterprise. I recently showed diesel locomotives from such a road. And there was always a shunting locomotive at the station. There are always such locomotives at all stations. And they scurry like ants.
