"Time flies by when I'm the driver of a train, as I ride on the footplate there and back again. Under bridges over bridges to our destination ...." Can't remember the rest.

Time flies by when I'm the driver of a train
And I ride on the footplate, there and back again.
Under bridges, over bridges, to our destination
Puffing through the countryside there's so much to be seen;
Passengers waving as we steam through a station,
Stoke up, fireman, for the signal is at green:
Time flies by when I'm the driver of a train
And I ride on the footplate, there and back again.
In the cutting, through the tunnel,
Rushing, clanking, on the track;
Wheezing pistons, smoking funnels,
Turning wheels go clickety-clack:
Time flies by when I'm the driver of a train
And I ride on the footplate, there and back again.

Apparently there used to be a Trumpton/Camberwick Green road sign outside Horsted Keynes station.

I got 9/10 on the test 
But I did grow up in Tr(Pl)umpton, so knew all the actors personally.
