Tommy's Trains - Pegswood Station (featuring a very special train at the end)

- It's Autumn 🍁 We had a great afternoon at Pegswood Railway Station where we seemed to get lots of horn blasts, especially from the Azuma trains.
We were also treated to 68018 Vigilant and 68016 Fearless which were treating the track with a spray, something we've never seen before. Vigilant is Daddy's favourite train as well 😊

👱🏼About me
My name is Tommy and I'm passionate about trains and planes. After seeing some older boys creating videos of trains at my local station, I was inspired to give it a go myself and with the help of my taxi driver, I mean Dad, I hope to travel around The North East, finding cool places to record all things rail, air and as I also love ships, maybe nautical. I'd love to hear your feedback and any suggestions of interesting places to visit for my next video.
What absolutely beautiful memories you are creating.
I'm so lucky and hope hanging out with Dad remains cool forever (I know it won't) 😂
Baby and boat are so cute, thank you for sharing like 👍🔔💯OK my friend
👍🏼
Excellent platform discipline - well done.
Yeah, the first thing we say each time we arrive at a station is "safety is the most important thing" Safety > Fun
@@TommysTrainsandPlanes Good on you!
I am ancient compared to you two and was a trainspotter in the late 1950s and the 1960s ( work it out; search the old black and white images - all short trousers, school uniforms, satchels, plastic macs, duffle coats etc. ) with no CCTV to spy on us but just making friends with the staff found on even the smallest station.
The real point. In those days there were two television channels and the local cinema and a long running campaign of public safety films including warnings about the dangers around railways. Now with the massive plethora of media there is no equivalent.
How about - watch out, is this either an opportunity or an unwanted burden - Tommy and Dad making a modern version. The dangers of being too close to a moving train, not pushing through a gap in fencing ( see the sad story below ), not climbing onto bridge parapets, care at public foot crossings and the notorious half or no barrier level crossings, not throwing things at power lines and anything else you can think of. Then push it on your media memberships and encourage others to pass it on.
One day in the late 60s a younger boy who would sometimes hang around with us found a gap in the fencing of an alley that ran beside the line and stood too close to the track. Either his clothing was caught up or the disturbed air dragged him under a train with fatal consequences. The priest who ran one of our local boys clubs administered the last rights to what was left of him on the line and later we all read the gory details revealed at the inquest in the local papers. Even six decades later I get a cold shiver thinking of this life wasted in the space of a few seconds. What could he otherwise have achieved?
To end on a more cheerful note - autumn heading into winter is the season to obtain the glaring coloured waterproofs and wellies needed for trackside vigils. Happy but safe spotting.
@@michaelcobb3347 that's a good idea. I have recently started working on the railway and have been told some grisly stories during my training. Thankfully, Tommy has me who is aware of the dangers and can pass the message on but others won't so it's a great idea. It'll take some planning but I'll put some thought into it. Thanks for the idea and kind words 😊
@@TommysTrainsandPlanes I really must be patient now and let you get on with work and family.
I have railways in the younger generation - signalling - so I am more than aware that as the serious accident rate, eg. collisions after SPADs, has reduced so the number of incidents from the public misusing track or simply failing to understand the speed of approach of trains has become an even greater concern. After all, trains cannot swerve. I had a little over fifty years of working in school science so health and safety with youngsters in particular comes as a second nature concern to me.
Your videos show that you and Tommy are familiar with a few other lads who might be able to help you with their families' permission so sniff out if any of them are interested.
For you and all of them - as the nights close in remember the decades old advice - "Be Safe, Be Seen".
Most drivers react to your little lad brilliant
We're there so often, I think they recognise him. Hopefully, they recognise his safe and respectful behaviour as well which is being rewarded 😊
Tommy just makes my day!
Thank you 😊
Santa would like to get Tommy a Train Set - would you mind?
@@PaulSmith-c7p that's so kind and generous but not necessary. We're just happy with your views and comments. Thank you though ☺️
@@PaulSmith-c7p plus we don't have any more room at home for more trains 😂
So nice to see the next generation getting into trains 😊 I’ve done it with my own boys, though one of more enthusiastic than the other 😂
Keep it up lads!
