In the days of the steam-hauled non-stop Flying Scotsman between London and Edinburgh it was not unknown (although extremely rare) at the end of the journey for a passenger to come through the tender corridor onto the footplate to thank the engine crew. Whether or not they brought chocolates or other gifts my father, who was an LNER driver, didn't say.
