As the wind flows. The train approaches
Got me dead💀

[@Tyrannosaurus_Wrexx]

I was a light rail train operator in Dallas a few years ago (DART), and had someone run in front of my train as I was leaving Union Station. He was high, and trying to get onto the platform to catch my train. I was so upset because I’d come within a foot of hitting him. I feel for Karen and her situation. On another note, three weeks ago, I was in London. I absolutely love their public transport.

[@musicmanfelipe]

I love riding DART.

Here at New York City Transit, we call the discussed circumstances a "12-9". We use a radio code system starting with 12s, like the police and thier 10 codes like "10-4"

[@mfslots]

that guys unreal be more considerate of the living if your going to commit suicide that's basically what he was saying

[@bigdmac33]

Complete overreaction designed to scare the living sh1t out of the young man. Still, that's English authority for you.

[@lewiss626]

Shouldn't fare evade then

11:30 That's so nice. 16:20 Who cares if they are already dying. 18:50 There is 7-sisters too!?

[@michaelamoia2141]

idiotic comment. the driver suffers a lot! Take it from me, a train driver that had a suicide.

[@noway2831]

[@greenglassrecycling]

@@noway2831 who cares if they are already dying?

[@longbar2344]

such a selfish way to go. go into the woods or do it at home if u need to do it ffs. affects so many people and the poor drivers. fuks up their lives

[@mattaddison1910]

12:59 Peter Jones quit the dragons den and now drives tube trains apparently!

[@Kazavop]

lol

[@Otaku155]

Having taught English in China, I have a very hard time believing that a Chinese person of that age does not speak any English...

[@grandadgamer8390]

Just imagine Trevor coming to your house for dinner, mmmmm
...
"Extrotrated"

[@bigdmac33]

The gentleman is correct [ 16:18 ], people that try to commit suicide by jumping before a train callously and selfishly have no regard for the effect it has on those that witness the attempt and those that have to clean up the mess afterward and a train driver may witness more than one attempt during their careers.

[@chappo91rulz]

I have witnessed someone trying to run across the track while there was a train stationary at the station and the driver said he has witnessed so many people attempt to jump in front of the train and that.

[@bigdmac33]

The yellow line on the platform is far too close to the platform edge.

[@fluxington]

Go and re-paint it further back then.

[@BurritoSenor]

​@@fluxington 🤣🤣🤣

[@Babyblue689]

The platforms are mega thin too. I think in the early 20th century there were a lot less people in the world and London. My friends are in London at the moment. They say they’re not using the tube, but I bet they do, as there’s one near their air b&b. We lost phone connection earlier, so they were probably on then.
