Reporters sent to cover historic steam train, loses train in steam
When you"re sent to cover steam engine trains, you should prepare for – well, steam.
Unfortunately for the team at Sky News, it was perhaps a bit more steam than they bargained for since it ended up covering the whole subject of their story.
The reporter was sent to cover the retu of the "Flying Scotsman,” a train that was originally retired in 1963 but was brought out for a test run.
As the joualist begins an interview about the historic retu, the train engine starts up and bellows a huge gust of steam, interrupting the interviewee mid-sentence.
The interviewee gives a smug eye roll and tus toward the train and as the camera pans to the tracks, where viewers get but a glimpse of the fading image of a black steam engine train.
Ironically, the steam caused by the train has completely blocked the view of the steam engine train.

An interrupted interview along with a great shot of nothing makes for one imaginably frustrated reporter.
