@who2stu I want to know why people leave their indicators on when they’re in roundabouts? When you’re waiting to enter one it looks like they’re indicating to come round in front of you but they exit to your right.
People never used to do this!

@anon_opin Well I am a train driver.

[DS @ds9128]

@liz_langfield @ArchRose90 It was scheduled to run through Huntingdon on a non-platform line. He contacted the signaller to do a last minute diversion into a platform.

@lateturn @gceccles @northernassist @peterjnicholls @DevonJ58 @alexhornbyrail @railnigel Yes they’re air operated doors. If the air drops below roughly 4 bar they stop working so if you’re in a station for an hour it’s best to shut the unit up and of course because they’re diesel, officially we’re not supposed to start the engines until 10 mins pre departure.

@lateturn @gceccles @northernassist @peterjnicholls @DevonJ58 @alexhornbyrail @railnigel Yes we do, the 165s.

@anon_opin May also distress innocent parties such a a train driver if it’s to honour someone who’s used their train to kill themselves.

@supertanskiii Maybe setting up a social structure for when they get released and society has shunned them?

[DS @ds9128]

Also, instead of being tilted towards the train so that you only need to check 2 carriages per camera, they are at a right angle to the train so there may be 5 cars visible and I want to be able to see every door in every camera to avoid mistakes.

Hi @RMTunion yes Oxford - Bicester is DOO but this is the junk the drivers have to work with. The cameras for us to see the side of the train so we can dispatch it safely are 7 foot from the platform edge so our view is blocked when the station is busy.

@horton_official What a waste of good drink. I doubt they’re cheap either.

@MajorGowen_ Anyone remember earlier this year when Asians complained to a police officer about a street preacher and she told them it’s freedom of speech and if they don’t like it they should keep walking?

@NFBUK @andyburnham @Heidi_Labour @Mather_Keir @justinmadders @stephenctimms Walking around Birmingham city centre is a horrible experience because of this. I even had one idiot ride towards me doing a wheelie then swerving at the last second.

@ABC @OliviaRubinABC I suspect if this was the other way round and a black man walked into a white woman’s home, shot her, then claimed he mistook it for his home and thought she was an intruder he would not only be laughed out of court but would be on death row.

[DS @ds9128]

@lateturn Thanks. This is another problem, the cameras are too far from the edge of the platform so even if pax stand just behind the yellow line (which of course they don’t) you still can’t see. This is Oxford Parkway.

[DS @ds9128]

@lateturn Hi did you see that CIRAS report I posted? I’m interested to know what you think of it.

[DS @ds9128]

@lateturn @DanielS37921482 @JKPlanner @philatrail I’m a train driver. This CIRAS report proves DOO is not being implemented safely. If a driver notices a door in a blind spot the signallers won’t warn drivers on following trains and the managers are condoning it. It’s a trap and drag waiting to happen.
