@@Camberwell86 i remember my dad in the 80s going to the pub and driving home drunk. I remember been in the car and my dad driving me around drunk. It was different time back then. It a good thing i reckon.
My Uncle was a driver for over 40 years and my Dad was a signalman both on the Northern line. They both started at 14 as porters. Dad used to take me to his signalbox at Golders Green its all long gone now all controlled from Camden Town I believe. This film brought back some memories.
The trainers...truly amazing people who take the pressure away from the trainees, and plant the reality of these jobs into the minds of those that replace them.

I do hope that's sarcastic. I have been on the GWR HST, IET and 150/2 simulators- each one is so much more realistic. The IET sim was the most realistic, everything from the air con to the DSD pedal worked
The guy that trained Terrence is really supportive. He wants those drivers to pass. If I had a different coach, there is a high chance he would not say anything and just mark. Congrats Terrence.
@@paulec2634 you know what else i hoped for? I hoped both of them met each other after this documentary, i think it would have been soo heartwarming that these 2 nice lads met.
It just made me remind when I started as a train driver and how grateful I am for doing this! As a passionate for subway systems, it's a pleasure to learn and discover how it works over the world. Excellent video!!!
As you're leaving from Epping station towards West Ruislip or North Acton, Look out to the left and you'll see it. It's been repainted since this video and has had some things put in it, most recently a fake Santa around the Christmas period.
Well but he'd have to "wait" for almost 20 years in order to drive 'em - 20 years of time that your job isnt that much fun - and I believe he can change it from time to time, so he could have till now
Interesting he said “maybe Piccadilly” but ruled out the District for being too old, even though the Pic’s trains were (at the time) three years older than the District’s.
I live in the US in Massachusetts just south of Boston. I always loved the subway. That's what we call it here. I don't think there is a real appreciation here as there is with London Underground. I love Keith's personality. Must be hard to say goodbye to it all. All the memories of his dad and now he's retired. I love seeing his eyes light up looking at the guard rail which I know nothing about. Its nice to see someone who has worked hard get recognition from his coworkers like this. The guy making the train, that was beautiful and amazing. I hope Terrance has a safe journey. It looks like a fun job to have
This was filmed in 2004, I hope Terrance is still working strong on London Underground and perhaps he is training new drivers (who now drive automatic trains for the most part)!
I'm from New York City and I've always wanted to be a train operator. The job looks easy but it's not. You are in charge of the well being and safety of others.
I know I'm replying to an old comment, but I agree. A lot of people who have never driven a train think the job is "easy", presumably because you only control "forward and reverse". Controlling a huge heavy vehicle full of people requires your full attention and a lot of forward planning. Sure, the job can be done (and I daresay better) by a computer, but automating ancient railways aint cheap.
It's obvious he just means if someone handed him a pound for every time in a one off. His salary has been given monthly for 40+ years... Either way, it's just a turn of phrase. Because as people have said above, he WAS paid every time 😉
What I couldn’t imagine, is how the drivers feel when they get someone who is suicidal throw themselves under their train. Poor blokes/women. That would be absolutely horrific 😢😢
Driving buses must be a lot more difficult! I couldn't do it. Just imagine, you have lots of cars and cyclists, and passengers running for the bus, and other pedestrian crossing the road and not always watching what they are doing, and rain and snow and a schedule to keep. ... Good that there are some people who can do it! :-)
Wikipedia - Partially-automated trains are currently used on four lines (Jubilee, Central, Victoria and Northern).[2] These trains still require operators to open and close doors, and to assist in case of emergency. This method of working will be extended to the other lines by 2022 and will also be used on Thameslink and Crossrail.
so basically the drivers are there for when the automated train fucks up and they gave them a button to play with the doors so they could feel usefull and keep themselves amused?
In Helsinki, Finland the metro was extended and attempted to automate. Extension doesn't have any driver facilities like toilets or rooms for relaxing. Drivers sit on wooden stools in the so-called automated cars, pressing buttons to make the train go forward, stop, open and close door etc., without any air conditioning. Good job there...
60 year old keith does it the last time, well with people may having to work longer in their life, we might be able to drive until 65 in a train, would be a fun job
Duty managers are what we call Train Service Supervisors in NYC transit. What they're doing.....if we were over the buffer zone, we get written up and possibly taken off the train depending how over we were
very similar operation to those in Hong Kong, which was started in 1970s. The difference is that the MTR trains here is computer-autopilot. Drivers focus on ensure that the train operate as expected in their input, and drive the train when needed.
I earn a similar salary to a tube driver, but one major difference is that when a tube driver finishes their shift they can truly switch off as they have no deadlines, projects or emails to worry about. Sure tube drivers have to work unsocial hours but they get far more holiday and pension benefits than the average person.
We've gone from tube trains being manually driven, to the majority of trains now having ATO (so drivers push a single button to begin a journey and thats it, then they open and close the doors). And now the next tube stock which are about to be introduced in 2025 have the ability to be operated entirely without a driver at all (after two modifications) in the same way as the DLR. Within the next generation we will see the end of the tube driver. Its a strange thought.
I understand that there’s more to it than meets the eye , but still , surely it’s just about going when the lights are green, stopping when they are red and slowly down gently into a station. Compared to the complex decisions a coach driver has to make , it must be easier. No real wet weather or snow. Nobody pulling out on you. No tyre blow outs . No high winds to blow you around on motorways. No frustrating traffic jams. No idiots doing idiot stuff. Even the passengers are kept separate from you. I could go on and on. I know which one I would find more stressful. Probably the only big disadvantage would be not seeing too much scenery.
there's still a lot which can happen on any type of rail network. I've seen people falling from the platforms down onto the tracks, have seen subway or commuter trains derail in the tunnels ...
Love this clip and would have loved to have driven trains...two things got in my way...I am color blind (Not bad but enough to stop me) and I was told I would not amount to much by my teachers. However done a fair few things that I was told I never be doing so happy just the same.
I went through driver selection for British Rail towards its last days and it was brutal(and that's from someone who had been in the military), by the end of the second day of the maybe 60 people that had started I think there was only 14 of us left(of of those only 6 went onto the trainman driver boards)
Lol on the central line at Leyton the driver was short and when the doors opened it was half exit and half do not cross this line with a barrier. He closed the doors and rolled forward
