IF THIS IS A RAILWAY TRAINING VIDEO PLEASE NOTE I DO NOT OWN THIS CONTENT IT BELONGS TO THE RIGHTFUL OWNER.
Paul in rage mode
3:50 That is a breach of human rights. I would personally use the toilet (if I needed it) anyway and told the signaller that I'm not moving the train until I'm finished.
4:30 Big mistake on the part of all three people involved. The platform staff, conductor and driver should ALL have noticed the danger signal and stopped the dispatch process immediately.
It was dark and the signal was barely visible.
That signal involved in that first SPAD is ridiculous by modern standards. Why would they still have semaphores especially at an apparently busy station?! Also a lot of it would be on the guard for giving the rightaway without a proceed aspect.
Because the UK has a horrifically poor railway.
Wakajce The U.K has a far better system than the U.S.A
Jerram89 Ding, Ding and Away. The cause of many SPADs.
Paul Watkins Agreed
Very interesting video, thank you for sharing it with us
4:03 That's Paul Tyreman!
I feel bad for the 2nd driver
HNL Bus 522 Fan yea
4:53 NEVER assume a signal to be off.
14:30 Max should have breaked his train BEFORE worrying about the sun-visor.
Paul is arguing with the platform staff!
The valley lines were a hectic place!
Why was there no banner repeater on the man in the pacer on the second spad?
I really don't know. It would have been very useful.
probably because of the speed limit on that line. I *think* it was around 50mph or so.
That said a repeater would've been good
But its whales , why should it be given funding? Said the tori living in Edgeware
Technically when the driver for central passed the signal at danger the emergency brakes should have been applied automatically unless train stop overuse was enabled, however there should be no reason for it to be on
Not all signals are equipt with TPWS (only signals which supposedly have a higher risk of spads have the equipment fitted)
Where is Robert Plant now?
STILL LEAD SINGER OF LED ZEPPELIN
Fascinating as Mr Spock would have said. :)
I was in Warragul in Victoria in Australia and it was a V-Line train and they driver overshot the platform and went through a red signal it happens everywhere where there's a railway and doesn't just happen in the UK I was also on a Metro trains train between Ringwood East and Croydon in Victoria the train driver went through a red signal and the train came to an emergency stop it doesn't just happen in the UK at happens everywhere
I love watching these videos but I wish the people that make them would either stop using abbreviations or at least state what they mean what is a SPAD and a DRA
These videos are designed for drivers who know what they mean, and the videos are old, but a SPAD means 'signal passed at danger' (passing a red light) and a DRA is the 'driver reminder appliance' which stops the driver moving the train when it's on, so drivers set it at a red signal.
+Paul Watkins SPAD = Signal passed at danger, DRA = Drivers' Reminder Appliance. You probably know these but now everyone knows.
Paul Watkins SPAD- Signal Passed At Danger, DRA- Driver Reminder Appliance. I am a traindriver! :D
[1] well truely yes but its essentially caused dueto mostly lack of staff , staff running more services back to back than having or being able to have a break and continue with a slot later or thesimolour
12:58 why has he got his night running lights on?
16:55 GARY THINGS!!!!
What does P&B stand for?
Finding this five years later:
PNB - Personal Needs Break.
Essentially as Gordon describes: A break for the driver to use the loo, get a refreshment and stretch their legs a bit.
