She lives next to a train station where trains make SOO much noise. A few kids, staying away from the darker side of teenage-hood, having some fun at the station whilst also being safe and not causing harm to themselves or other people. Give it a rest, Karen.
Imagine living next to a busy railway line and getting upset when a couple of kids squeal a bit. Get yourself some noise cancelling headphones Karen. Well done for staying calm and respectful when having to deal with that horrible lady.
Exactly, freight trains and speedy pendos pass by all the time, but when Trainspotters come, she has enough. And your welcome, it did kinda put us off after speaking, like we wanted to leave soo badly after that because of the threat of calling BTP but I'm pretty sure we would have been alright anyways.
Wouldn't it be cool if there were designated Trainspotting stations or trackside areas where trains don't stop in remote areas so the tones don't disturb anyone and the trainspotters are still happy
Lol this reminds me of a time me and me bud we’re train spotting in Finsbury Park a Karen told us to stop getting the drivers to tone then when she walked away one driver did the loudest tone😂
Don't second guess yourselves based on some of the comments below - the railway line was there LONG before the houses. They made their choice to live there, they probably paid a little under market value due to the proximity of the line, they have ZERO remit to complain about the noise. Yes, you may be inciting the drivers to tone, but I say it again, it's a railway - common sense dictates you wouldn't buy a house next to one and expect anything less than regular horn blasts, wheel resonance and air turbulence. A railway station (and line, for that matter) is a working area and it produces noise. While it's important to respect people, never fall into submission when they start a conversation off with, "you're causing a nuisance" or anything of that ilk. Keep up the great work!
Don't see you guys doing any harm here getting trains to horn if she don't like living next to railway then she can move lol I've had a few issues in Ivybridge with couple people who live next to A38 when my mates come past in their trucks blasting the horns Mind you though if you guys was running up n down the station she does have a good point probs making sure you don't put yourself or others in danger mate
I’ve had one of these situations but instead of someone coming to tell us they just shouted on the intercom, and I get they are following basic procedures but they don’t need to have a angry manner or tone.
Oh dear, some people don't want other to enjoy themselves. Not knowing railway regs (for drivers & placement of safety signs etc) , but what would have happened if there had been a Whistle board near the platform, and driver's had to obay that instruction? I suppose now, Acton Bridge will be a group meeting location for those interested in trains and loco's?
Good job mate, seems like a cool spot 👍 Don't worry at all about Mrs. Angry, my guess is that she's probably living a very unhappy life. was probably feeling very grumpy about all sorts of things and just saw you guys as an easy target to take things out on. You handled it right though, best thing is to just nod, smile and move on with your day. You'll still be having a good time and she'll still be having to mind her blood pressure 😂
I’ve lived in Manchester 21 years but I’ve got the SailRail when I go home to Ireland from Manchester Piccadilly (Platform 13) via Chester and Holyhead for the ferry to Dublin on Irish Ferries -I’d sooner go from Manchester Victoria, Liverpool Lime St/Liver Building and further along the River Liffey to the Custom House across the Irish Sea - getting into Dublin City Centre can be a pain though, as there is no DART or LUAS trams into Dublin from the Irish Ferries/Stena Terminals at North Wall (Dublin Port) even though it has been expanded to take cruise ships and the Port Tunnel and M50 is quite close by, as is the Dublin Docklands Station for the M3 Parkway line to Navan, but the freight lines don’t have access to Dublin Connolly or Hueston via Cabra/Liffey Junction or the Phoenix Park Tunnel
Quite a number of years ago - somet similar happened to me and my mate also at acton bridge, though instead of the person coming to the station to tell us off - they shouted at us from over the fence in their back garden (they lived in one of the houses facing platform 1). I have a funny feeling this was the same person from all those years ago... have they literally spent the last 10 years doing nothing but harassing trainspotters!?😂
These Karen’s need to get a life and find themselves a hobby because on the honest truth this Karen is lifeless she sounds like after reading some of the comments like she is harassing a lot of trainspotters and if she is doing that well maybe one day I’ll go Acton bridge if she comes along I’ll tell her straight that I heard about her being a Karen and actually you know something she should be put in prison because she is lying to the police which is a criminal offence so how about she gets thrown in jail or she deals with it I bet she complains about network rail being there don’t she
Despite who the lady is or said, the most important is to fallow the basic principles of common sense according to The Railway Regulations whilst on a station platform, specially not ignoring the Yellow Line that has clearly being a major mistake caught on camera. Good captures and thank you for sharing the interesting content. Glad that new generations keep strong on trainspotting.
Hello! I'm here from a year and just over 4 months older than the video! I just want to say Thank You! This was my first ever video and it's a bangahhhh! I really hope you enjoyed this video and thank you for all the comments that you have left me! Forever Grateful! - Mason :) .

I’m not that familiar with trains here in the U.K. myself, but back home in Ireland, we Irish have wonderful rail lines like Dublin Hueston via Athlone to Galway, Westport/Ballina, Waterford, Cork, Limerick, Tralee, Dublin Connolly to Belfast/Dundalk, Bray/Greystones/Arklow/Rosslare and Dublin Connolly to Sligo - our DART trains operate from Malahide via Dublin Connolly, Tara St & Pearse to Greystones, with a branch to Howth and we also have the LUAS trams around Dublin - there have been plans to build a high-speed rail line from Holyhead to Dublin (under the Irish Sea) but it’s always getting shelved, a big hassle for me when I’m going home to Ireland
I mean, as a trainspotter, I would seem very annoyed, I live near a railway line and love hearing the trains, but I do live in an area where lots of parties and children scream, so I can understand it can be frustrating, but then again, you should not approach children and be rather rude and a bit intimidating.
To be honest it was the right thing to do but she shouldn’t of done that I would’ve just carried on with the tones :) But seriously you can’t call the police on someone that is trainspotting and doing nothing 😂💀. But still great video I’m your new subscriber
I guess that lady doesn’t know the definition of ‘Enjoying yourself’! Also her fault for living next to the trains! Never had complaints from residents or station staff for horns! I dunno why brits are so grumpy about horns! Like listen to those Americans! Also looks like you were behind the yellow line in the clips so she can shut the **** up!! Anyway good video! Station staff I’ve encountered (apart from a couple) would never approach someone in that way! They would explain why! Nice vid!
that lady does not own the railway so she can not say NO TONES it is her fault for living where there is high speed trains and the horn is the best part of trainspotting if you want you can trainspot at Box Hill and Westhumble and dorking and get some tones that is far enough from her
Did the woman work at the station? Was she some sort of authoritative figure who worked with the local council or one of the local train operators? If she wasn't then she really had no right to be picking on you. But you were probably best not to say too much and just let her get it off her chest.
Can't believe some people. You just got a bit excited outside of a training so had to get over the other side of the bridge quick enough to catch it, and also ended up straying over the yellow line once or twice. Not exactly graffiting, throwing things or swearing is it? You didn't even trespass on the track Unless she's one of the rail authority employees she could just say something along the lines of 'you might want to think about being a bit more careful on the station' if it's the first time she's had to come down speak to you especially. She acted as if what what you doing was as bad as going straight up to someone and doing something wrong against them in person.
Just came across your video and I can't believe that woman. She would not have spoken to an adult like that she is a bigot and a bully. should have just told her to do one, what's she gonna do? Others on here are right she chose to live near a main railway line. Some people aren't fit to breathe the same air as us, bloody muggles, Don't give up lads.
Haha thanks! Sometimes I do understand but your right she chose to live near the railway with trains passing through with speed and sometimes horns to move people away from platform edges.
@mthetrainspotter I get that. Right I hope u don't take offence to this cus I'm autistic myself and can't process things but I listen to myself and just say it. Clearly u have autism and u have these same issues u gota try get ahead of it if that makes sense 👍🏼
Not being funny, but _she_ chose to live in the area, so she can't exactly complain about you lot "doing this" 😂 To be honest though, this is why I just film trains from a park or a railway bridge, because I can't be doing with having to put up with grumpy people like her 😂
I mean I understand why she gets angry from the trains that whizz past the station and adding the trainspotters that visit here. Sometimes people don't signal the driver to horn but they do it anyway.
@@ringermikey 💪making an L shape like this emoji but with your rist in a punch but not curved as well and then moving your arm up and down like what you could do with a truck passing like as a young child.
That was what's going through my mind when she left but now I respect what she means by how the horns make more noise than passing through. That is one question I should've asked but I wanted to stay polite when she was complaining. Thankfully she didn't call the BTP but i don't know what they would've done anyway.
@@mthetrainspotter you have video evidence. Under the RAILWAY REGULATIONS, firstly you are not legally deemed to be not following the rules. As a friend of a station supervisor on the London Northwestern Railway network, he has deemed your actions were all right and correct. You were polite with madam but she still argued back. Anyways, he said he’ll keep a eye out for her. If you have the raw video, please let me know. You don’t have to share it but it would be preferable. Thanks.
Absolutely nothing wrong with what she said. It's not a playground, if you're screaming and shouting then you're not respecting the station. You wouldn't get away with running on the platforms at a manned station either. And the silly reply comments on the video back it up.
This woman is a nuisance, she reported so many spotters between 2020-22 she had to get a visit from the BTP to tell her to calm down. She complains that trains do horns while living near a railway.
@@kyotosinfinity5959well don’t live near the railway like what do you expect that’s just being a Karen getting trainspotters done for absolutely nothing how about we tell BTP on her for chatting to trainspotters she wants to complain about trainspotters why don’t we complain about her mouth
That woman has no right to say what she did and hope you took no notice of her. If she has a problem she should call the police and waste their time. Your activities have nothing to do with her whatsoever. She shouldn't live there in the first place so it's her own fault.
Its not your problem if the driver gives you a tone you cant physically sound the horn from the platform so people need to get over it nice spotting though
After the woman left, one driver seen us filming and gave us a tone! I got so scared after that and was so eager to get on the train out of Acton Bridge xD Thanks HMStrainspotter!
For people who wanted to watch the angry lady part, the timestamp is 2:58
She is the one causing the issues if that happened to me I'd just tell her "GET A LIFE AND JUST MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS YOU ARE NEAR A RAILWAY LINE!"
She lives next to a train station where trains make SOO much noise.
A few kids, staying away from the darker side of teenage-hood, having some fun at the station whilst also being safe and not causing harm to themselves or other people. Give it a rest, Karen.
This statement is grammatically correct.
I would try to get the biggest tone ever after that 😂
Should have done! XD
Imagine living next to a busy railway line and getting upset when a couple of kids squeal a bit. Get yourself some noise cancelling headphones Karen. Well done for staying calm and respectful when having to deal with that horrible lady.
Exactly, freight trains and speedy pendos pass by all the time, but when Trainspotters come, she has enough. And your welcome, it did kinda put us off after speaking, like we wanted to leave soo badly after that because of the threat of calling BTP but I'm pretty sure we would have been alright anyways.
its not like the trains are any quieter
Wouldn't it be cool if there were designated Trainspotting stations or trackside areas where trains don't stop in remote areas so the tones don't disturb anyone and the trainspotters are still happy
I love that idea!
3:41 complaining about noise while living next to a railway line
makes sense
Lol this reminds me of a time me and me bud we’re train spotting in Finsbury Park a Karen told us to stop getting the drivers to tone then when she walked away one driver did the loudest tone😂
That should shut her up! XDDD
Don't second guess yourselves based on some of the comments below - the railway line was there LONG before the houses. They made their choice to live there, they probably paid a little under market value due to the proximity of the line, they have ZERO remit to complain about the noise. Yes, you may be inciting the drivers to tone, but I say it again, it's a railway - common sense dictates you wouldn't buy a house next to one and expect anything less than regular horn blasts, wheel resonance and air turbulence.

Don't see you guys doing any harm here getting trains to horn if she don't like living next to railway then she can move lol I've had a few issues in Ivybridge with couple people who live next to A38 when my mates come past in their trucks blasting the horns
Mind you though if you guys was running up n down the station she does have a good point probs making sure you don't put yourself or others in danger mate
We weren't running up and down the platform, we did speedwalk but that doesn't count as running but thanks for commenting anyways!
Maybe she'd be happier if you went round smashing things up or robbing phones.
Strange lady. 😅
Probably yes! XD
I’ve had one of these situations but instead of someone coming to tell us they just shouted on the intercom, and I get they are following basic procedures but they don’t need to have a angry manner or tone.
Keep up the good work. Great video.
Thank You!

Indeed.
Great video I like it so much,about the lady,don't care,ignore,it's a very frustrated woman.
I agree with you
Karens everywhere mate. Don’t let that get you in a way of her stopping your rights. It’s a public area
Good job mate, seems like a cool spot 👍 Don't worry at all about Mrs. Angry, my guess is that she's probably living a very unhappy life. was probably feeling very grumpy about all sorts of things and just saw you guys as an easy target to take things out on.

Thanks Vortigan07! :D xD
Similar situation to people who buy a house near an airport, then complain about the noise of aircraft!
Pointless but I would definitely live like that but without complaining!
After she told you off you should have shouted extra loud and got extra long tones 😂
Then she may escalate further with the BTP actually arriving. XD
