      You gotta be careful what you wish for. Considering that they voluntarily got onto that train, if they were denied boarding when the train was filled up I bet that would upset a couple of people just as much, if not more. As much as crowding isn't comfortable, it's a result of multiple people wanting to make a similar journey and there's very little more that can be done that isn't already being worked on.

      +Bastian Mann Sadly, in today's culture, it always has to be someone else's fault. Since I moved to the US (which is admittedly a little more OTT on this) no less than six times people have suggested to me that I sue someone for something that was clearly either a total accident or my fault. In the most recent example, I tripped over my own shoelace and fell on the concourse in Penn Station. Clearly my bad, right? Two separate people told me I should have sued the city.

      +mistressmacha Someone is personally suing an engineer here in Chicago. The media treats him like a criminal. The lady went around the gates and ran a red light to save a few seconds. It was a Metra commuter train going 79MPH. She claims that it wasn't her fault and that the engineer should be charged for not blowing the horn. Local residents complained about the train horn and made it illegal to blow the train horn. He was even blowing the horn once he saw her car, but she was already in the path of the speeding train. She lost and is now trying to sue again.

      Meta BET the best thing I've learned as an American railfan: slap a Safetran e-bell on it, and get out. The government ain't responsible for nobody: your life is what you the individual pay. Now trains are bigger here: an ES44AH-T4 is much taller than a puny insignificant European locomotive (and it develops 4400 horsepower). Big trains, doublestack containers, and on Saturday its three because my April fools joke is "triple stack container train" but if you want to stop 195 cars doing 75 mph: no dice. Acela pushing 150? Nope. Same in Europe: you get hit by a train it's your fault. Stop protecting the fools and let natural selection work. And also BLOW THE DAMN HORN! I love me some K3H in the morning, or A200 in the afternoon. MN's continuous horn policy where hikers cross the tracks has a serious Doppler effect. Check it out.

      It's a requirement of the contracts and so on that were introduced because of privatisation.

      The State needs to take responsibility because otherwise they wouldn't try to fence lines, or improve crossings, or improve education campaigns. There is some good that comes from arbitrary Government acceptance of liability.

    In the debate on the Causeway crossing, I can see both sides of the argument. Modern crossings are a lot safer than they have ever been, having said that, the CCTV is not continually relaying what the public are doing on the crossing to the people some miles away, so naturally the local community would argue that a crossing attendant in the box right by the crossing will be the safer solution

    • @ChangesOneTim
      @ChangesOneTim ปีที่แล้ว

      At many remaining staffed LCs, the keeper also controls one or more others via CCTV. Keepers' responsibility first and foremost is safe closure of the crossing; confirm that it is clear for each train in time for an unimpeded run to be signalled through. Keepers are not required to monitor crossings all the time [and often can't anyway because they have other duties]; only each time they are to close the road and confirm that crossing is clear. There might be a public perception of 'safer' but it is just that.

      Some CCTV upgrades have replaced gated LCs where the equipment lacked some modern 'interlocking' kit which didn't fully safeguard against keepers making mistakes. Other than that, generally it is b*l*ks to say CCTV is 'safer'. Causeway LC cabin did have all the kit and of course controlled modern lifting barriers not old gates.
      If road users choose to vault the barriers or drive/ weave through them once signals have been cleared for each train the potential outcome is the same with or without a keeper🙄

    • @Trainboy9681
      @Trainboy9681 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Perhaps not. While nationalisation may work in other parts of the world, many people tend to forget how awful life was under the rail-ruling British Railways. Trains were seldom on time, if they ever turned up at all. Absolute rubbish refreshments, enormously overcrowded trains (Far more overcrowded than nowadays) and poor or useless rolling stock. Not to mention the abusive staff and BR's famed way of letting newcomers straight into the job rather than giving them sufficient training.
      Now, you look at our railways today. Passenger numbers have increased rapidly over the past 20 years. Now the railway is carrying more people than ever before. It's the fastest growing railway in Europe and runs more frequent trains than most competitors. Not only that but there are big plans for the future in terms of modernisation and improved performance.
      Nationalisation would cheapen the quality, not improve it.

It's disgusting that the outlook of these people is tolerated and the fact that they show a complete lack of respect for authority, and behaviour in general. Their behaviour shows just what the stripping of discipline, from Parents, Education, Law Keepers and the judiciary, has done. Sadly, I fear, it will only get worse.
