It is certainly devotion to duty! It goes to show that the trains do not just run on coal and steam but by the willing helpers who give their time and expertise knowledge. Great candid photography.

An excellent candid of these volunteers hard at work, Alan.
Let's hope that the skills these folk have are passed on to future generations to ensure our railway legacy is kept on track for many years to come.
