4 hours on track, but time in meetings, risk assessments, preparing equipment and man power and travelling to and from site. Still a full night's work when your body clocks playing with you.
I must say, i do like a network rail uniform, nice gents round waterloo bridge area- helped me with directions to charing cross 😆
Public don't realize how hard these guys work to keep the trains running safe.The public owe everything to them.
I’m thinking of doing this but I don’t want to work nights
Real men! Real work! Love it! Thank you.
Can’t wait to start
Start in two weeks I'm excited for real 💯👊😎
???? I started with BR in 1981, so that's 30 years now can't imagine doing anything else. Ok I know the odd shifts can be a pain and we all moan about our jobs, wages, bosses etc but I love it and want to stay till I retire.
How its going buddy
I know you made this comment 9 years ago but that’s why I’m replying now, how are you doing? How’s your job going?
@@Liam-ly7up i think he’s retired, i hope he answers back
👍👍👍Super Film👍👍👍
We saw exactly this outside our window this morning around 2am and wondered what the hell was going on......😅 Thanks to this video now we know!......These Engineers must feel like Superheroes when they take the trains in the day time and know what they did to keep it safe at night whilst we were all 😴😴🤣. Awesome 🥳😎🙌🏾
I use that rail grinding machine before which is named MV-3 !
@XxROBERTSONx LOL, good luck with that. Your gona need it.
The sound with the people in the field is not working correctly.
Many many cancellations these days re Engineering works because they can not get enough people or contractors. The the next disaster the managers will be responsible with their high executive pay we are all paying for. I am a very experienced manager that has now left the industry for good . Network rail likes apprenticeships and new inexperienced people also it seems .
I concur, I went to Australia when I was 20, did 5 years on the railways over there worked up to leading hand and gained so much experience and knowledge. Came back to the UK and absolutely nobody wanted me, or offered help to sponsor me for a PTS. 4 years since I’ve been back and I’ve finally found a government funded course to get me on the UK rails. These kind of situations are why our country is such a mess!
@jackbarraclough4711 hi Jack which course please if you don't mind me asking
@@jackbarraclough4711Hi, i'm going to start the government funded course too next month. How has your experience been so far after getting your pts license? Thanks.
To do such things you need to have a background in mechanical or in civil (transportation) engineering?
No not at all you just need a pts and other add ons depending where you want to work like your AC DCCR OLEC1 Or your third rail
@@MaxLloyd-kk9oqHey
Do. People use the shovel during the night the ballast or is it just during the day
I wanna do this.
No you don’t, it’s shite
Want is that noise on train tack the train thing
Technician
Does the blue hat mean trainee?
White hat means you know what you;re doing; blue hat means you haven't a clue.
Gotta do 12 shifts as a blue then you get your white
bill ray wannabe did you find it easy getting the work what kind of job was you doing
Keith Denny that’s wrong it’s until your deemed competent
Lee O'Connor some white hats from agency’s still don’t know what they are doing
my cousin works for them
Ok
Ok
Ok
Ok
Ok
@XxROBERTSONx take my advice from somebody who has been on the railway for 18 years. Don't work for network rail, they are greedy, and run a very badly managed railway infrustructure, what the camara doesn't show or tell you is the amount of accidents due to workloads being rushed and managers putting pressure on staff to do stupid amounts of work with little staffing levels,they took on loads of apprentices, and now they have no jobs due to staff cutbacks, apply for balfour beatty, !
TRIPLEVALVE62 THE DEPOT ....Balfour who?
your right, i'm working as a contractor for vital rail and they try to get us to do stupid jobs bodge jobs and they are greedy make you wait around for no reason like its coming out of their own pocket
@@JustMyOpinion- Worst company I have worked for Vital.
Vespah Scott did you do your 8 weeks course and do vital phone you or help you get work
I HateMylif3 did vital sponsor you and did you get much work off them what I mean is do you have to chase the work
How patronising are the interviewers!?
Network Rail are a waste of space
The future is so damn ugly honestly
Hmm, Network Rail = 50 men standing about watch 2 or 3 do all the work, no wonder train fares are so expensive.
The 2 or 3 guys are always contractors haha
