Potentially but had the driver done his job properly communicating with the signaller and his passengers then the boy wouldn't have lost his life. Even with a guard onboard the boy could have still potentially been run over or electrocuted by the third rail.
I was once aboard a train when we were going full speed ... Suddenly we heard a loud horn and the driver slammed on the emergency brakes ... i was nearly thrown off my seat so i didnt take much notice but then we heard a loud bang. Then we were waiting for about 10-15 minutes where no one really said something and we just looked around if everyone was alright. My father was worried why the driver wasnt saying anything so he walked up to the cab. Turned out we just hit a person with the train. We couldnt and wouldnt get off the train for another 30 minutes before it was save to leave without seeing ... well ... the person. It was a very frightening experience i still remember today. Sadly.
Potter's Police Videos you thought wrong. Generally yes, and in an emergency yes. However in the chaos of a big emergency the guard will too. Potentially it may be the only such call if the driver is incapacitated. All our guards at my TOC are fully trained in emergency call procedures and emergency protection of the line.
This reminds me of when I witnessed something like this. I was waiting at a railway crossing when a pedestrian climbed the barrier and tried crossing the tracks. It was the most horrific thing in my life!! Always be safe on the railway
Frightening the driver didn't just have a quick peep out of his window. Had there been a guard no doubt this wouldn't have been as bad. Once a fire is observed you should order a block and traction current isolated too, it horrified me when I saw those passengers jump off the 6ft side and not onto the cess or lineside.
haddockman30 he also shouldn't have asked the questions to the driver how he did, he should have instructed the driver to find out why and then call him back, not just make him wait, hopefully in the real situation a lot was learnt
This is why you need guards on the train they can deal with emergencies and communicate relevant information between driver and passengers, the driver cannot leave cab or 1st coach without signallers permission so keeping the guard on services is vital and this situation would never happen
This event never happened, it's a fictional dramatization loosely based on multiple real incidents for a training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly.
This event never happened, it's a totally fictional dramatization for a training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly.
Passengers are NOT supposed to jump off the train track side, in which it clearly states on posters all over the train. The driver can even make an announcement to also say this!
@@itsrobertl5951 the tracks are obviously electrified, otherwise the other train couldn't get pass, even though it is a remake (yes this did happen) they would still die or possibly injured by the live rails, opening them on the side with grass would save everyone's live, plus there was a third rail with 720 volts, so yeah they would die
It's from a genuine safety dvd called red 43 produced by the so called impartial RSSB on the dangers of Driver Only Operation (DOO) shown to all onboard staff nationally in 2015. It's a reenactment of a genuine incident that happened. Had a guard been onboard the situation would have been very different. That lad would still have been alive. Fact!
@@Kopend09 might as well be a fact. If there had been a guard there, the incident would have been investigated much sooner; then when the passengers were evacuated, the guard would have got them out of the other side of the train - or, if that was impossible, would have got the line blocked first.
This event never happened, it's a fictional dramatization loosely based on multiple real incidents for the training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly. I worked on the production of it.
Although I understand the driver not opening the doors straight away, but the driver should have immediatly looked into the cabin to see if anything is wrong, after the call failed, he must have heard commotion. He took too long to react.
Imagine how traumatised the driver must have been after hitting that boy. Just imagine how much he would have been mentally injured by the fact that he just killed a young man, and there was nothing he could do. We know that driver saw it because he blew the horn at the boy.
So in my opinion he should: 1. Check what’s going on faster. 2. Ask the signaler for a block immediately after he see the smoke 3. Communicate clearer to the signaller. 4. Make a PA
As soon as he heard the alarm, stop the train, investigate. Order a block and Isolate traction current not say “Urm I think so”. Open the doors opposite of the other line, contact the signaler requesting emergency services and get out of the cab and assist anyone.
Surely the driver should have been allowed to unlock the doors and tell the passengers to stand in front of the train where he could see them and tell them to stay away from the tracks. And yes the traffic controller should have called for an emergency stop for approaching trains

@@mfx1 I was traincrew when this was shown to us in a safety briefing. We were told it is an enactment of an actual incident. Aside from that, I was the guard on a train that did have smoke-filled carriages and passengers jumping off, thankfully on the safe side. The driver was six coaches away. The whole incident was managed much more safely with a guard on the train.
@@mfx1 Fair enough. Fact is, they showed this to us in a guards' safety briefing while we were disputing the safety of DOO. Someone upstairs was clearly on our side as you couldn't find a video that was much more supportive of keeping guards on the the trains!
Problem is 3 rail and passengers in the 4 foot way safest place is The Cess best side to evacuate from is nearside ( Left hand side doors facing the direction of travel) but the biggest mistake was activated the pass com at the wrong door best place was get to the next carriage and activate the pass com as the driver could be told of the danger
First of all, I have NEVER heard a conversation quite like that between a driver and a signaller! The pair of them did not follow procedure at all, driver should have declared an emergency as soon as he seen the smoke: "I think so"?! Ffs! What kind of an answer is that when dealing with the signaller?! He also failed to ID himself.. I would have been lucky to keep my job, had I spoke to signaller like that! Besides, had that train had a guard, then I'm certain this would have had a different outcome. I'm glad my time on the railway is over...
This is a good dramatisation, but there really is no reason to put #southernstrike in the title, this is onboard a Southeastern class 465. Not a southern class 377 or 455 or 456 or 171 or 313
That isn't the point. People take advantage of the southern strikes and use it so they can gain popularity from it. Southern is completely separate from Southeastern, and regardless, if the public on that train had bothered to follow safety regulations then they would have walked to the next coach, and not directly onto the track. I will lay it out like this for you, If you want frequent trains then then either accept driver only operation or become a train driver, or you keep guards on trains and have less frequent services.
Class 465 I get what you're saying but feel like the message is still valid, yes southeastern and southern are different, but they are both train companies going through a lot of changes. There's little to no reason why this accident couldn't have happened on a southern train. And people feel safer with a guard, I'd imagine the driver would too but I've not asked any
@@SamT The people onboard that train can hardly be blamed for following safety regulations when the driver failed to walk through when the alarm was pulled or even communicate with the signaller properly.
@@PottersVideos2 The driver can't walk through the train to see what the problem is while driving. While he can cancel the TPWS brake demand, that puts everyone on the train at risk.

The majority of the time a train can coast into a station in which it is safe for passengers to evacuate.
@@duncanwright7027 No, it was loosely based on two separate incidents one at Kentish Town in 2011 and Hither Green in 2013 there were no fatalities in either and the presence of a guard would have made little to no difference in either of the cases it was based on.

Thank you for confirming my comment. The incident is almost entirely Hither Green where the train was stopped by shoe gear overheating and the passengers evacuated, it was clearly not a made-up incident. The point of these videos is to promote safe working by showing where this has not occurred in the past. They are to be watched by all those whose actions would be affected by what happened. To include a fictional fatality was unnecessary and would potentially mean that any driver who has had a fatality would be unable to watch it.

The question was asked on our drivers FB group and there was considerable annoyance that the producers where embellishing the story for no reason.
@@duncanwright7027 Again no, Hirher green was an organised evacuation when the train was near the station "train. Station staff rushed to assist the passengers onboard and staff from Network Rail’s nearby depot assisted passengers on the ground to evacuate through the depot.". It was Kentiah town when passengers forced their way off the train but there was no fire. The actions of the driver in both cases were completely different to the training video. So if anything the main theam of the video is closer to Kentish town but with the fire added as trying to portray frustration after a 3 hour or more wait is hard to do on a short training video.
It was based on something that actually happened for learning processes. By watching it you see some procedural problems, how decision making and communication is affected by stress of an emergency, and that problems that occur when unclear information was given. I hope a lot was learnt from the real version of this accident, I know my trains say if there's a fire change carriage instead of jumping out. I think it also shows the public to really not stand on tracks even if it is an emergency as you don't know what could be coming
No conductor was required to prevent what happened, if the driver and signaller had even just communicated as per procedure then the events would have been very different
The metro lines on SE don't have guards. Without a guard, if the passengers had behaved more rationally (which they probably won't in an emergency situation), the driver could have been given more accurate information to take the correct action. Even if you think you'd be smart in such a situation, and would expect to guide people to safety before sounding the alarm from a safer location... when panic sets in and adrenaline starts rushing, you'll stop acting rationally.
Such an unfortunate event, thoughts with all involved. But did anyone else notice the train that hit the boy in the video was traveling in the same direction as the train on fire on the wrong side? Assuming this isn’t two parallel tracks in the same direction
This event never happened, it's a fictional dramatization loosely based on multiple real incidents for a training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly. It was filed on the Bromley North branch line on a Sunday when it's normally closed, trains were filmed going in whatever direction was convenient because of time constraints in fact for the final short for safety reasons the train was filmed reversing away from the camera slowly and the footage was speeded up and reversed in post.
Recreation of a real incident from a train crew training dvd called Red 43. Magically disappeared when government backed campaign against the guard escalated. Can’t think why... oh wait, yes I can it shows driver only working in a negative way!

Driver should have looked out the window as soon as he knew the passcomm wasnt going to be replied to, as soon as he saw the fire he should have made an REGC on the GSM-R, and evacuated away from the tracks.
If nobody was replying to the driver on the pascom then he should have investigated, the passangers should have evacuated to the other far end of the train (though that might have been hard because some smoke was blocking the gangway) and THE SIGNALLER SHOULD HAVE IMIDIATLEY PLACED A BLOCK ON THE AJACENT LINE
And the passengers, you evacuate the train on the landside. They could have called another train to go next to that train and safely get the passengers onto it
I know it’s dramatization, but damn they spent a lot of time in that smoky car lol. Waited for a plume before even considering moving lol. Here in NYC, we would’ve been gone before the smoke was visible 😂😂 Was on a bus recently that smoked the brakes coming downhill off of the Whitestone Bridge. Before he stopped at the light after the bridge, we smelled something and was looking around. A few seconds later, we saw a little smoke coming from the wheel well. We told the driver after he turned the corner into the bus stop. And ran off the bus lol. (Smoke wasn’t nearly as thick as this).
In the event of a fire the train must be evacuated. Firstly the train should be stopped in a safe place e.g not in a tunnel, viaduct etc!, an emergency declared to the signaller and trains stopped on all other lines to allow the passengers to disembark safely. Where there is 3rd rail electrification then it must be de-energised. The communication between the driver and signaller in the video was poor and indecisive and the protocols were not observed.
3:40 Given that the boy's father was still on the train and not in a fit state to evacuate then why evacuate the train? As far as I can see there was no compelling reason to do so, I would have just remained on the train with my Dad and awaited rescue.
This is a safety DVD for driver development. Of course nobody was hurt, or the camera operator would have died too, wouldn't they? All involved are actors. These DVDs are provided to stimulate best practice, learning and development for drivers. I mean, who drives with red lights at the front, not headlights?

On maps, I saw a southeastern train between Lewisham station. The train was on fire like this. I know that a big boy has died by another southeastern train. (THIS IS A SAD STORY ABOUT THE BIG BOY GETTING KILLED BY THE SOUTHEASTERN TRAIN.)
Something super worse happened 2 days ago at lewisham station as well and as witnessed it, so a train was coming into the platform until they used their horn, I didn't know the problem so I looked back, and BOOM someone on the tracks! I think it was attempted suicide as he didn't look scared at all, they cleared the platform and eventually closed the entire station for DLR use only
This event never happened, it's a fictional dramatization loosely based on multiple real incidents for a training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly.
The train driver and the signaller are at fault, fair enough the signaller was busy but if the driver said the alarm was on then make the signals red, and the way he was asking “Do you need a block?” Of course he does, and for the driver, when the signaller said to give a minute then the driver could have checked on the train.
The driver did not take the correct actions. He did nothing and thought nothing of the situation. He got a young boy killed because he failed to check and follow the procedure. Shame on him.
Watching this, I was shocked why this train didn't have a guard. That boy wouldn't have lost his life if there way a guard.
Potentially but had the driver done his job properly communicating with the signaller and his passengers then the boy wouldn't have lost his life. Even with a guard onboard the boy could have still potentially been run over or electrocuted by the third rail.

Fault lies between the train driver and the central command - help line, poorly trained.
Important to note that not all trains will have guards on them.

I hope a lot was learnt from the real version of this accident, I know my trains say if there's a fire change carriage instead of jumping out. I think it also shows the public to really not stand on tracks even if it is an emergency as you don't know what could be coming
@@SomeGuy-lw2po Also, these tracks are electrified by a third rail.
@@PottersVideos2 not just normally electrified, it literally has 720 volts

WHY AM I TEARING UP
No conductor was required to prevent what happened, if the driver and signaller had even just communicated as per procedure then the events would have been very different
This is by far the saddest you've posted
hello
What was that train doing driving on the right side
Why didn’t they get off the other side of the train?
Where was the guard then, surely he/she would have seen this
The metro lines on SE don't have guards.
Without a guard, if the passengers had behaved more rationally (which they probably won't in an emergency situation), the driver could have been given more accurate information to take the correct action.
Even if you think you'd be smart in such a situation, and would expect to guide people to safety before sounding the alarm from a safer location... when panic sets in and adrenaline starts rushing, you'll stop acting rationally.
David M be safer if a guard was there in other words
this is driver only operations
4:45 ASSUME is to make an ASS out of U and ME. This is exactly what happened, RIP the boy.
The signals should've been put of ASAP. ITS A FIRE, WHAT DO THEY DO? STAY IN THERE WHEN THEY NEED TO EVACUATE?
Such an unfortunate event, thoughts with all involved. But did anyone else notice the train that hit the boy in the video was traveling in the same direction as the train on fire on the wrong side? Assuming this isn’t two parallel tracks in the same direction
It's because it had to go ont the other side otherwise it may collide into the stationary train
Who cares? That has no bearing on anything.
This event never happened, it's a fictional dramatization loosely based on multiple real incidents for a training video to show would COULD happen if procedures aren't followed correctly. It was filed on the Bromley North branch line on a Sunday when it's normally closed, trains were filmed going in whatever direction was convenient because of time constraints in fact for the final short for safety reasons the train was filmed reversing away from the camera slowly and the footage was speeded up and reversed in post.
Recreation of a real incident from a train crew training dvd called Red 43. Magically disappeared when government backed campaign against the guard escalated. Can’t think why... oh wait, yes I can it shows driver only working in a negative way!

THIS VIDEO CONTAINS A JUMP SCARE TOWARDS THE END (FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME / 12 YEARS OLD
No? Jumpscares are immediate scary popups, it blackens out moments before hitting him
This is so sad at the end :(
Driver should have looked out the window as soon as he knew the passcomm wasnt going to be replied to, as soon as he saw the fire he should have made an REGC on the GSM-R, and evacuated away from the tracks.
Once I saw a seat flaming on a southeastern 465 these trains have serious serious issues
4:49 WHAT HE SAID HE NEEDED A BLOCK WHAT HAPPENED MATE?
Its a remake and y'know dramatic things always have to happen
If nobody was replying to the driver on the pascom then he should have investigated, the passangers should have evacuated to the other far end of the train (though that might have been hard because some smoke was blocking the gangway) and THE SIGNALLER SHOULD HAVE IMIDIATLEY PLACED A BLOCK ON THE AJACENT LINE
Why couldn't the passengers use the gangway to change what coach they were in, it's common sense
Fog and smoke blocking the way
The staff are completely stupid tho
And the passengers, you evacuate the train on the landside. They could have called another train to go next to that train and safely get the passengers onto it
is this real or fake
He used the right he should used the left
I know it’s dramatization, but damn they spent a lot of time in that smoky car lol. Waited for a plume before even considering moving lol.
Here in NYC, we would’ve been gone before the smoke was visible 😂😂
Was on a bus recently that smoked the brakes coming downhill off of the Whitestone Bridge. Before he stopped at the light after the bridge, we smelled something and was looking around. A few seconds later, we saw a little smoke coming from the wheel well. We told the driver after he turned the corner into the bus stop. And ran off the bus lol. (Smoke wasn’t nearly as thick as this).
In the event of a fire the train must be evacuated. Firstly the train should be stopped in a safe place e.g not in a tunnel, viaduct etc!, an emergency declared to the signaller and trains stopped on all other lines to allow the passengers to disembark safely. Where there is 3rd rail electrification then it must be de-energised. The communication between the driver and signaller in the video was poor and indecisive and the protocols were not observed.
3:40 Given that the boy's father was still on the train and not in a fit state to evacuate then why evacuate the train? As far as I can see there was no compelling reason to do so, I would have just remained on the train with my Dad and awaited rescue.
*the fire on the train*
Why would you? You would’ve died because of a lot of smoke.
Do NOT let them D.O.O.
Shouldn't have opened the door on track side
Agreed.
I think we should move, is there a alarm anywhere,
This is a safety DVD for driver development. Of course nobody was hurt, or the camera operator would have died too, wouldn't they? All involved are actors. These DVDs are provided to stimulate best practice, learning and development for drivers. I mean, who drives with red lights at the front, not headlights?
this happened in real life aswell though

Oml one innocent life..
Is this actually real time, or is it a reconstruction
A mix of both, this happened but no-one died.
Flattened!
I sure hope the reenactment is not an accurate representation of how the engineer and train controller actually handled it.
It wasn't a reenactment the event never happened, it was fictional loosely based on multiple real incidents purely for a training video to make a point.
I don't know why there was a 🔥 on the 🚆
It was probably an engine overheating
@@TheArkamedBat friction with the 3rd rail and the shoe
4:20 Why the hell are these people evacuating onto a running railway track? They are already in a safe location on board the train! They should have just waited for instructions from the driver or used another passcom to inform the driver what happened.
I feel bad for that man loosing his son

Other train hit boy.
amazing that it wasn't sop to look outside windows when alarmed pulled
and amazing that blocking all traffic wasn't the default when fire declared on a train on a line
just amazing
amazingly bad sop and training and culture
However, the driver should have used the passcom override foot-button.
Oh yes, you should always keep the train moving in a fire
@@Jackary1232 It allows the train to continue to a safe location (while this is pressed), so as to be on a better position if an evacuation is needed.
On maps, I saw a southeastern train between Lewisham station. The train was on fire like this. I know that a big boy has died by another southeastern train. (THIS IS A SAD STORY ABOUT THE BIG BOY GETTING KILLED BY THE SOUTHEASTERN TRAIN.)
Something super worse happened 2 days ago at lewisham station as well and as witnessed it, so a train was coming into the platform until they used their horn, I didn't know the problem so I looked back, and BOOM someone on the tracks! I think it was attempted suicide as he didn't look scared at all, they cleared the platform and eventually closed the entire station for DLR use only

I would open the doors, but only to vent all the smoke out.
dont worry its just class 465's setting on fire like usual
Yes it is a furnace train

Very scaremongering pice of TV 🙈☺️
Keep the guard on the train
Do not let them D.O.O.
He passed away 😢😢😢😢🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🪦💔🌹
The train driver and the signaller are at fault, fair enough the signaller was busy but if the driver said the alarm was on then make the signals red, and the way he was asking “Do you need a block?” Of course he does, and for the driver, when the signaller said to give a minute then the driver could have checked on the train.
The first thing the driver should have done is declared an emergency and put a block on all lines
is all right come on
This is all the drivers fault for taking too long in the cab to realise what was happening
ffs spend a bit more money for a saftey guard
😥😥😥😥
Yo another Australian
The driver did not take the correct actions. He did nothing and thought nothing of the situation. He got a young boy killed because he failed to check and follow the procedure. Shame on him.
It happens all the time man even happened last week
I Don’t Think Class 465159 will continuing unless the 465/1/2 or 9s or 376 breaks down.
