'I love trains and think I could do this job'. Bosses touched by six-year-old's application to be National Rail Museum director

"He loves Thomas the Tank Engine, travelling on the Eurostar and watching his train set go round and round.

So when a vacancy opened up as director of the National Railway Museum Sam Pointon was confident he could do the job - despite being only six years old.

His letter, in which he outlined how he could control two trains at once, arrived with hundreds of other applications but stood out a mile.

In fact, the museum's bosses were so touched that they decided to offer Sam an honorary position as their Director of Fun.

He is now responsible for coming up with ideas to make the York museum more exciting for children."

It's hard to keep feeling grumpy when stories like this float around, I'll have you know. :-)
