Did you know Andy Saqladi was the youngest signaller on the network at the time, he rose up the ranks to become Area Production Manager rising up to be a big manager and managing teams and projects also him and his familiy running successful businesses, he was kept in the industry for some years before moving on to Southern Waters and Anglian waters a complete departure from what he did before!
I'd not seen this video, before today, but I recognise parts of it. I was involved in the making of it whilst the production company were using NVR as a location. I was Pilot on board the Cl.66 with the union Jack on the sides. I was allowed to drive it when positioning between scenes, and got a ride from the NVR line to Peterborough Station.
@@PottersVideos2 No, it arrived with a driver, I was the Conductor aboard the Cl.66 for route knowledge whilst it was at NVR. I was also NVR's duty man on the ground for the event on the first day.
There was a GBRF Cl.66 & a Freighliner Cl.47 with ten low sided box wagons. I remember the guy driving the Cl.66 was named Ken Hook. Ken was one of the original, early members of the NVR. Filmed at NVR over two days, I was Duty Director for NVR and Pilot on the Cl.66 on the first day. Was one of Dave Dores videos.
Would a driver face disciplinary action for a SPAD if a signal suddenly returns to danger? If they've made every effort to stop, surely they're not to blame for any wrongdoing?
@@lolzlolz102 True that, in fact there are situations which can lead to SPADs (formerly Cat A SPADs) but which wouldn't be the driver's fault, and so would not result in any action being taken against them.
I'm not certain but I think it is Dave Dore (the guy who owned the video production company) who is playing the part of the Signalling Technician seen at 03:46.

Do you mean the Driver?

SPAD = paperwork and lots of it
Should be PLOI
Shitloads of paperwork & dispair
You’ve heard of “You’ll be going nowhere”
But have you ever heard of its sequel, 2:09?
4:57 that guy should have just waited for further instructions.
I nick em from the drivers room ;)
Got any more RED videos?
Great videos, thanks. One of the people in the video is a stakeholder I briefly met before
SPAD:Shit Paperwork and Action Denial for other trains.
-whoa whoa not that one-
BLIMEY YOU'VE JUST SLAMMED THE BLOODY STARTER BACK IN FRONT OF HIM
Terrorists must not know about Track Ciruits.
1:00 "FUCK'S SAKE"
Driver when signal returns: OH SH T
Nice bit of filming at the Nene Valley Railway at Orton Mere

Asking for an American friend:
Are CAT A SPADs deemed 'Driver Error'?
yes, they are.
Would a driver face disciplinary action for a SPAD if a signal suddenly returns to danger? If they've made every effort to stop, surely they're not to blame for any wrongdoing?
Depends on the situation
@@darrencafferty Sorry, can't really think of any situation where the driver would face disciplinary action following the old cat B spad.
@@lolzlolz102 True that, in fact there are situations which can lead to SPADs (formerly Cat A SPADs) but which wouldn't be the driver's fault, and so would not result in any action being taken against them.
I believe the situations you describe are now known as SPARs (Signal Passed at Red) rather than SPADs, sounds nicer for the driver.
No he/she goes into emergency then contacts signaller once stopped.
She placed that food on her lap lol
I love them wherever you got them from you are subscribed!!!
I love you vids they are really interesting!!!
since when did freight trains carry passenger, paul?
5:28..."now you may be asking, what the fu....
...ss is about..."
I want to know who was responsible for making these videos as they did a great job!
It was one of Dave Dore's videos (Spa Video IIRC). Dave had done many, many videos for BR & the new rail companies. There's lots to find on RUclips.
I'm not certain but I think it is Dave Dore (the guy who owned the video production company) who is playing the part of the Signalling Technician seen at 03:46.
my uncle is from stamford he was on a train involved in a spad at melton mobray
Jesus, what happened?
Notwork Rail back at it again
Railtrack, actually
@@RWL2012 Network Rail used to be Railtrack though.
@@PottersVideos2 Railtrack was a private company whereas Network Rail is a public company. This uploader incorrectly puts NR in the description of these Railtrack videos.
What's a Cat 2 SPAD? I thought that there was no such a thing these days, and that the correct term was a SPAR.
Yeah and Railtrack no longer exists, this video is at least 20 years old. Cat B SPAD is now Technical SPAR.
This is a Railtrack video, not a Network Rail video.
Who said it was a Network rail video?
@@Kopend09 darren cafferty did.
"Giving discomfort to the passengers" The scenario used there is a freight train
Paul's referring to both the Cat. B SPADs that they've looked at, the freight one and the first one with the passenger train
"These (...) were", rather than "This (...) was"
0:27 was that march station signal box??
Another wonderful video thanks!
Its paul again!
March near the start
Out of the East Jn. Box
Shouldn't this be spad risks 4?
ARGH WHY IS IT ALWAYS PAUL?????
You'll be going nowhere with a SPAD
Oh No It's Paul Tyreman again
