And here's me hoping this was a video of how to couple trains *at high speed*, which sounds way more exciting. But, on a Sunday morning a well spoken, methodical 1980s safety video is just what my brain wants.
I can now fly a plane for the same reasons. All we need is one more gent to cover naval operations and we can ensure all means of transportation should the need arise.
Wow! My professional background is healthcare. I so remember this type of video doing our training. I know, it is different sectors, but the attention to detail, the ability to be a thorough "professional", and to be on top of your job, shone through for me.
They're small bags of gunpowder on the rails. When they get run over they make a loud bang and signal for the train to stop. No visible explosion though.
Put it on from the side not the front.. thanks for the suggestion RUclips.. I'll let you know how it goes because OF COURSE I WORK ON A BLOODY RAILWAY.....
I was picturing some crazy shit where trains couple together at high speed......so um...yeah, can't believe I watched this even as long as I did, including typing this!
Sean Watts they do go bang but dont disable or stop the train. They are loud enough and always in triple 20metres apart so a driver will hear them and stop.
Sometime in the 90's in England, 20 green high-speed train operators would have sit in a classroom and told to take notes by a senior engineer. Here, in 2016 America, I'm watching this while laying in bed, interestingly mesmerized despite this having 0 impact on my life. We are a weird species.
I've got 3 exams next week. I's 3 am. Why am I watching a video about train Coupling? I don't even drive a train or work for a company that has to do something with trains.
Wow, I saw the guys couple the trains last in the 90s, nowadays you can just watch the magic happen in front of you as the train arrives: grump shhh plop, finished, all coupled up.
+Steve Allen I think this was taken in the days BEFORE HSE poked their noses into everything! What would Swarfega do if there were gloves for everyone? ;-)
The railways were some of the first to use Hi Vis... for obvious reasons. It's why railway stuff here is still orange rather than yellow: legacy became 'just the way it is'
This reminds me of working for an airline and hooking and unhooking the tow bar. I loved yanking the pin that says MUST REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT. Some of the pilots would turn the front wheels causing it to make a snap after the pin was removed which would scare the living daylights out of me. As my departing salute I would flip them off.
I don't know why YT suggested this to me, but somehow after a few secs of watching I wanted to know how to emergency couple a HST to another locomotive or another HST. I can't explain why...
When an approaching train or vehicle runs over the detonators, they make a big BANG which alerts the driver of whatever hit them and any workers on the track. Hitting those things gets everybody's attention in a hurry.
I work for NS for a bit and we found some in the front of an engine. We put one on the rail and hit it and it was loud like a shotgun. I also discovered during my time there that if you hit a regular flare with an engine it will have a similar effect.
For all those whinging about watching the video - (1) Why sit there watching it and (2) What did you expect when the title is 'High Speed Train Emergency Coupling'?
this is why I love living in America the coupling system is so much simpler. open the knuckle, connect to the broken train, attach brake line and go. and since trains in America have air brakes if there is a problem with the brakes the train will not move. it is a faster way to get a train off the main line or out of the way of a crossing in case of emergency vehicles
teacher555555 True Except that you wont find a knuckle coupler on the front of any high speed train with a streamlined front end wether that's in Japan, France, Germany, UK or for that matter America. A knuckle coupler would look kinda shit poking out the front of an Acela or such like. They all still use a 'translator' device to couple to an assisting locomotive.
take a look at some pics of high speed trains and you will see a seem. that seem is just a cover for the knuckle. in case of a breakdown they will remove that cover just like in this video and connect to the broken down engine.
+teacher555555 That certainly is a ringing endorsement for life in America. I hope word doesn't get out about the great coupling system there or you will be inundated with visa applications.
Yeah, is why we're getting the southern rail thing now. the company is trying to say the guard/conductor is superfluous... and they're understandably pissed off.
As a Shunter at Penzance in the late 70s - 80s, I actually had to do this at Ponsandane Yard, a bit scary really, as the Loco had to keep moving back and for to get the distance right.
Interesting! I was actually curious about how the couplings of the class 43/125 work, since I want to get a model of one. I'm actually happy with this suggestion by RUclips, because I can actually use it, Sure, mine would be 76 times smaller, and I could just pick it up, but where's the fun in that?
So they couldn't even afford to supply the crew with gloves to handle the grimy, greasy hardware? Even my vehicle came with a pair of cheap gloves to use when changing the tire.
I only ever had to do this once and then not in a real situation , but when I was being shown how to do it at Doncaster when I was doing my HST Training.
True but the 8 inches I do have usually gets the job done ;) Although there was one girl that I came across who could have taken that whole damn draw bar and then some lol.She'd make your fist and forearm feel like a vienna sausage floundering in a hallway lol..........Years later I overheard her telling her pregnant friend at a restaurant how easy child birth was and I almost lost it.Later that night my wife managed to get the story out of me since she knew something was up :D
Yes these days they wouldn't dare imply people would have enough common sense to remove them without explicitly stating it. I long for times when people weren't so stupid or quick to sue! (last comment not aimed at you heart as I know/hope you're being sarcastic). ;)
I was expecting to read hundreds of railway engineering enthusiasts comments but RUclips probably recommended them how to bake and sell a My Little Pony pineapple cake whilst how to right a pop song for Minecrafting for cute kittens
i remember going on a course for this in Bristol when i was a shunter in 1992. good old British rail. when it was privatised the job changed completely
@@Thesupermachine2000 all companies were split in to individuals.. I became attached to Southwest trains.. I was no longer allowed to touch any intercity or freight train failures. Basically turned from a shunter to a cleaner..I was also trained as a firefighter..I put a few fires out.. mostly trackfires caused by rubbish and the third rail .I also put out two trains that were on fire..this responsibility was also taken from me
Why Did so many of us watch this. love it now I know how to attach a train though this knowledge its never going to be used by me, I don't have a train
I'm liking and commenting this to further confuse RUclips's algorithms - let them think this is something very important and interesting, better show in more users' recommended feeds.
It feels like I'm watching one of those nature shows by that first line of dialogue from the narrator. Seriously, am I the only one who feels this way?
In these industrial relation disputes we have currently it is interesting to me is that the driver has duties, like making phone calls and so on BUT the person responsible for protecting the train is the guard who also becomes the mechanic and gets his hands dirty. For the unwise; detonators are explosive compression caps laid over the rail so that an approaching engine or train would be in no doubt of the hazard ahead. Now, what happens if you don't have a guard?
Sweet.. I use the GWR train to Cardiff. I will be able to lend a hand in coupling up a tug loco.. in the event theres no conductor to assist the driver.. ;) Now remember. Short pole any loco. Long pole just for an HST loco !!
I was expecting a high speed coupling of a train, not a coupling of a high speed train. Toot! Toot! WHAM!!! At 0:41, he placed three detonators in front of the train. I had such high hopes.
Well now I know to do this. To bad those trains are probably outdated/scrapped, I don't live in Britain, and I don't work on the railroad. I used my time wisely I think.
Samuel Ollo They are very much in daily use, all over the Network. Have been for nearly 40 years with all now re-engined with quieter units, (also less smoky) and many different paint schemes. They're a real success story. Even one of the prototypes has recently been restored and is running again.
I didn't know British trains used those bars and pins. I'm used to seeing those automatic knuckles here on US trains, where nobody has to take the risk of stepping in between the trains during coupling. I felt nervous when the guy stepped in there.
There are several types of couplers in use here, but these are not normal; they are only used in emergency to couple these High Speed Trains to an assisting locomotive or train. In normal working these trains are not coupled to anything.
Ha i think it was the constant inuendo that got me to the end of the video and of course my love of the 125. Cant see any guard doing that without gloves and would have thought that would have been advised in an instructional film.
When the driver of an oncoming loco goes over a detonator, it makes an explosive sound, warning him that there's an obstruction ahead so he has time to stop before there's a collision.
+Mike P Do you think we don't have auto couplers in Europe? Don't hurt your ass falling off your high horse. This video is 30 years old and is about the manual couplings, that doesn't mean we didn't have automatic couplers even back then. Sheesh...
Since Polish railway company bought this italian crap pendolino, it's quite often view in Poland ... old EU07 (Polish version of British Rail Class 83/AL3) + new "High Speed" train, look's quite funny :P
Hahaha, I can't believe how many of us have watched this whole film and have no idea why. There is just something hypnotic here.
It's entertainment, pure entertainment.
And here's me hoping this was a video of how to couple trains *at high speed*, which sounds way more exciting.
But, on a Sunday morning a well spoken, methodical 1980s safety video is just what my brain wants.
Thats EXACTLY whats going through my mind :D Thanks for speaking it out :D
You too, eh?
same for me..
James Grimwood lol
Quite satisfactory if I do say so myself.
Glad I watched this, now I can sleep well knowing that I can do this if the necessity arises.
I'm furious with myself. If only I'd seen this _yesterday_. FML.
I can now fly a plane for the same reasons. All we need is one more gent to cover naval operations and we can ensure all means of transportation should the need arise.
Announcement: "There has been a power failure and the guard has fallen ill."
Me: "I got this."
How fortunate the breakdown occurred with a film crew present!
haha made my day
Dont take my roast too seriously.
Wow! My professional background is healthcare. I so remember this type of video doing our training. I know, it is different sectors, but the attention to detail, the ability to be a thorough "professional", and to be on top of your job, shone through for me.
Yes, the training film format seems to be quite pervasive. We get similar in electrical engineering :)
I watched the whole video and have no idea why I did that.
superbike1 ha ha me too
I dont even know why it was recommended to me. I dont like trains yet I watched the entire thing...
It was like a force... urging me to watch it...
Was anyone else hoping for "High speed - Train Emergency Coupling" rather than. "High speed train - Emergency Coupling"
i was,the title can be misleading hehehe
And detonators must be something else in England. I didn't see any explosions.
They're small bags of gunpowder on the rails. When they get run over they make a loud bang and signal for the train to stop. No visible explosion though.
in the 1980s when at shchool many kids used toi nick them off the lines take them to school then throw bricks at them in the playground
Put it on from the side not the front.. thanks for the suggestion RUclips.. I'll let you know how it goes because OF COURSE I WORK ON A BLOODY RAILWAY.....
I rarely use trains and never drive them. But I feel better for knowing how to couple an HST in the event of a breakdown.
I'm up for work in 5 hours.
You are less and less likely to use this as the stop gap HST is being removed from service over 40 years after it was designed.
I was picturing some crazy shit where trains couple together at high speed......so um...yeah, can't believe I watched this even as long as I did, including typing this!
*DAMMIT* when I hear 'detonators' there better be fucking explosions!!!
IIRC they are, if a train rolls over them they explode, disabling any train that may be heading towards the stationary train.
They're basically just big firecrackers, the train going over them sets them off causing a loud bang and stops (in theory at least).
Sean Watts they do go bang but dont disable or stop the train. They are loud enough and always in triple 20metres apart so a driver will hear them and stop.
I just learned something I will never do.
lol I know right
That's the same thing you said when you first learned about sex. Just kidding. I couldn't resist. Just having fun.
Haha good one man😂😂😂
Davin Crawford Haaa yeah thats a good one
I'm guessing that I will never need to do this... Why the fuck is this on here? Why the fuck has it appeared in my 'suggested videos'?
Nicap2 same
this was very informative and all..........but
how the hell did I get here......?
Sometime in the 90's in England, 20 green high-speed train operators would have sit in a classroom and told to take notes by a senior engineer.
Here, in 2016 America, I'm watching this while laying in bed, interestingly mesmerized despite this having 0 impact on my life.
We are a weird species.
I have suicidal tendencies... why was this in my Recommended list?
As usual the lightest thing on the railway is the pay packet
I've got 3 exams next week. I's 3 am. Why am I watching a video about train Coupling? I don't even drive a train or work for a company that has to do something with trains.
Did you pass?
Guess he didn't pass the exam...
HAHA FAIL!
The exam ran a train on him...
Wow, I saw the guys couple the trains last in the 90s, nowadays you can just watch the magic happen in front of you as the train arrives: grump shhh plop, finished, all coupled up.
Good stuff! Now we know what to do in this emergency! I was always worried what I would do!
train breaks down conveniently next to a film crew
The guy could use a pair of gloves
+Steve Allen I think this was taken in the days BEFORE HSE poked their noses into everything! What would Swarfega do if there were gloves for everyone? ;-)
+AAAyyyGGG Naw, he's wearing a high vis vest so it was in the days if H&S
The railways were some of the first to use Hi Vis... for obvious reasons. It's why railway stuff here is still orange rather than yellow: legacy became 'just the way it is'
yea
Yeah, PAH's were unheard of in those days.
This reminds me of working for an airline and hooking and unhooking the tow bar. I loved yanking the pin that says MUST REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT. Some of the pilots would turn the front wheels causing it to make a snap after the pin was removed which would scare the living daylights out of me. As my departing salute I would flip them off.
ElGatoLoco698 😂😂😂😂
I didn't realise turning the nosewheel did this. I'm going to start doing that instead of flashing the taxi light randomly.
I don't know why YT suggested this to me, but somehow after a few secs of watching I wanted to know how to emergency couple a HST to another locomotive or another HST. I can't explain why...
i have the same thoughts...
you never know, right?
Step 1, put on the yellow bra. Got it.
Cracking video! Brings back good times.
Why am I watching this
0:37 What were the detonators supposed to be used for?
When an approaching train or vehicle runs over the detonators, they make a big BANG which alerts the driver of whatever hit them and any workers on the track. Hitting those things gets everybody's attention in a hurry.
More just for the workers on the track so they can fucking leg it before the crash.
I work for NS for a bit and we found some in the front of an engine. We put one on the rail and hit it and it was loud like a shotgun. I also discovered during my time there that if you hit a regular flare with an engine it will have a similar effect.
david Horner - worth knowing...
For all those whinging about watching the video - (1) Why sit there watching it and (2) What did you expect when the title is 'High Speed Train Emergency Coupling'?
coupling at high speed?
and being on fire
A better title would have been "Procedure for coupling together High Speed Trains (or just HST's)".
Good vid for its age takes me back to my days of shunting on the east lancs railway...
this is why I love living in America the coupling system is so much simpler. open the knuckle, connect to the broken train, attach brake line and go. and since trains in America have air brakes if there is a problem with the brakes the train will not move. it is a faster way to get a train off the main line or out of the way of a crossing in case of emergency vehicles

take a look at some pics of high speed trains and you will see a seem. that seem is just a cover for the knuckle. in case of a breakdown they will remove that cover just like in this video and connect to the broken down engine.
At least the acela has a knuckle at both ends, it's behind a mobile door activated from the cab. A lot easier than these pins, hoses and bars eh?
+teacher555555
Even easier with Willison/SA3 coupler: connect the trains, attach the brake line
But yes, Scharfenberg coupler beats all
+teacher555555 That certainly is a ringing endorsement for life in America. I hope word doesn't get out about the great coupling system there or you will be inundated with visa applications.
I never realised the guard had that much responsibility. And carrying that massive lump of metal too!
Yeah, is why we're getting the southern rail thing now. the company is trying to say the guard/conductor is superfluous... and they're understandably pissed off.
Possibly the most British video I've seen this year.
I'm 3 min in and I just have to say thank you for uploading. I love it! thumb up :)
I was the first person to watch this in 2016! Happy New Year!
LMAO
radanju3 umm i don't remember this, nor do i know why I would be watching something like this drunk as hell.
John Jesus LOLWAT! Best comment I've seen all week. xD
You don't remember it? Not a very good training film then!
Also, HNY 11 months late
How i wated for 14mins in awe for those detonators never going of....... Well nice accent and nicely cocked up!
Health and safety would have a field day with that today, no gloves, no eye protection, no helmet, manual handling, COSHH assessment, etc.
My exact thoughts when I saw the grease all over his hands. Bet they're not even allowed to perform the hookup these days.
Not.LRG no thats a whole union fuck up nowadays, have to wait an hour for someone to come out and do the job for you
James Brindle oh I'm so glad =D
As a Shunter at Penzance in the late 70s - 80s, I actually had to do this at Ponsandane Yard, a bit scary really, as the Loco had to keep moving back and for to get the distance right.
Gosh who needs a driver when the guard does all the work
This is where "Look Around You" got its inspiration.
Thanks for posting this video. It's quite interesting.
What a delightful episode of the BBC's hit show: Coupling. It's a shame that the American version never succeeded.
The knee bone is connected to the thigh bone, the thingamajig is connected to the whatyamacallit....
Interesting! I was actually curious about how the couplings of the class 43/125 work, since I want to get a model of one. I'm actually happy with this suggestion by RUclips, because I can actually use it,
Sure, mine would be 76 times smaller, and I could just pick it up, but where's the fun in that?
Am I the only one who had this randomly show up in that recommended and is now binge watching these types of videos?
Very good video found it very interesting
So they couldn't even afford to supply the crew with gloves to handle the grimy, greasy hardware? Even my vehicle came with a pair of cheap gloves to use when changing the tire.
This was back in the early 80s in England. Where men were real men, women were real women, and sheep were real scared
***** ... and, Chipmunk, small green furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were REAL small green furry creatures from Alpha Centauri
I toyed with using that one but feared the reference may have been missed. I am glad I was incorrect
The sheep are and always have been scared only when Welshmen are near.
Is the ball pin at 5:55 for the HST to tow a caravan? ;-)
Found James May
Why did I actually watch this?
I only ever had to do this once and then not in a real situation , but when I was being shown how to do it at Doncaster when I was doing my HST Training.
I told my wife I need to do some emergency coupling with her when she gets home from work.
pffft your shaft doesnt extend 12 inches though
True but the 8 inches I do have usually gets the job done ;) Although there was one girl that I came across who could have taken that whole damn draw bar and then some lol.She'd make your fist and forearm feel like a vienna sausage floundering in a hallway lol..........Years later I overheard her telling her pregnant friend at a restaurant how easy child birth was and I almost lost it.Later that night my wife managed to get the story out of me since she knew something was up :D
I dont know why but I gave you a British accent and it was utterly delightful
These guys apparently have a whole twelve inches to play with too, before they open their cocks.
As long as you inserted the oval pin and detente pin afterwords, and conducted a brake test.
Well, now I know what to do in this situation. It's comforting.
Someone buy that poor bloke some gloves !
Watching because I’m volunteering for a heritage railway. They don’t have HSTs but they do have a Class 47!
Fascinating :),, thank you :)
no idea why i just watched it but now i know how to connect two trains together
Same here!!! :D
must have been defective detonators not one went off .
Yes these days they wouldn't dare imply people would have enough common sense to remove them without explicitly stating it. I long for times when people weren't so stupid or quick to sue! (last comment not aimed at you heart as I know/hope you're being sarcastic). ;)
Why am I watching this?
Trains... That why
I guess so...
I was expecting to read hundreds of railway engineering enthusiasts comments but RUclips probably recommended them how to bake and sell a My Little Pony pineapple cake whilst how to right a pop song for Minecrafting for cute kittens
I enjoyed that
i remember going on a course for this in Bristol when i was a shunter in 1992. good old British rail. when it was privatised the job changed completely
May I ask what changed about the job?
@@Thesupermachine2000 all companies were split in to individuals.. I became attached to Southwest trains.. I was no longer allowed to touch any intercity or freight train failures. Basically turned from a shunter to a cleaner..I was also trained as a firefighter..I put a few fires out.. mostly trackfires caused by rubbish and the third rail .I also put out two trains that were on fire..this responsibility was also taken from me
A Training Video for on the job way back when i remember that Intercity symbol aswell
what are deternators Idk and keep hearing that word
Why Did so many of us watch this. love it now I know how to attach a train though this knowledge its never going to be used by me, I don't have a train
Hi viz training bras!!! 😎
this girl finds that funny
So many steps. I'll never remember this.
Why did YT keep suggesting this to me? Its been in my recommendations for a freaking week.
The comments are funny! I agree with everyone. I too watched it till the end.
Everyone was moving so slowly; yet the title implies the coupling might occur at 200 miles per hour :-)
I'm liking and commenting this to further confuse RUclips's algorithms - let them think this is something very important and interesting, better show in more users' recommended feeds.
It feels like I'm watching one of those nature shows by that first line of dialogue from the narrator. Seriously, am I the only one who feels this way?
My Mrs has a 'magic hole'. It's a miracle if i'm allowed to approach it...
9:33
Lou Spowells you’re like 26 and you somehow find that funny.
Fantastic
did anyone also notice that they never picked up the detanators
Yeah, a couple of people - mentioned in other comments. I didn't give it any thought myself.
"Failure of the HST is rare" but this train had both power units break down !! LOL
That is extremely rare, that is.
this information will be usefull some day....
In these industrial relation disputes we have currently it is interesting to me is that the driver has duties, like making phone calls and so on BUT the person responsible for protecting the train is the guard who also becomes the mechanic and gets his hands dirty. For the unwise; detonators are explosive compression caps laid over the rail so that an approaching engine or train would be in no doubt of the hazard ahead.
Now, what happens if you don't have a guard?
Sweet.. I use the GWR train to Cardiff. I will be able to lend a hand in coupling up a tug loco.. in the event theres no conductor to assist the driver.. ;) Now remember. Short pole any loco. Long pole just for an HST loco !!

Well now I know to do this. To bad those trains are probably outdated/scrapped, I don't live in Britain, and I don't work on the railroad. I used my time wisely I think.
No they aren't
Samuel Ollo They are very much in daily use, all over the Network. Have been for nearly 40 years with all now re-engined with quieter units, (also less smoky) and many different paint schemes. They're a real success story. Even one of the prototypes has recently been restored and is running again.
Fortunately, the Class 43 HSTs have not been scrapped. First Great Western still uses these locomotives every day.
Samuel Ollo They aren't.HSTs are used by East Coast and First Great Western!
Eren Jaeger dont forget about east midlands trains
And this is why we have Scharfenberg couplers.
I didn't know British trains used those bars and pins. I'm used to seeing those automatic knuckles here on US trains, where nobody has to take the risk of stepping in between the trains during coupling.
I felt nervous when the guy stepped in there.

7:00 that guy stop the train just wanna say "nice haircut, boooi"
DETONATORS?! Is that how you fix trains?! "IM DONE!!! BLOW IT THE FUCK UP!!!" 😲
Parts of this made me think of the train scene from The Jerk for some reason...
How did so many us end up here for no reason? lol
RUclips running out of suggestions so it has to pull from the archives? Came for the high speed stayed for for the coupling.
The only reason another hst wouldn't move. The union told the driver not to.
As a person with severe anxiety and depression, I can say that watching this video has solidified my wish for death.
There's supposed to be a lot of Magnesium in chocolate - one reason it's so popular.
Very interesting. Now I know what to do if the Hornby OO guage Intercity 125 fails!.
It never explained what the detonators were for.
Can you couple a HST to a derailed train ?
I guess the detonators are only like firecrackers, and are to warn the driver of the incoming locomotive, in case he gets too close.
Or any other train that is on the wrong track!
Yes I believe they go on the track and are activated as the train rolls over.
When the driver of an oncoming loco goes over a detonator, it makes an explosive sound, warning him that there's an obstruction ahead so he has time to stop before there's a collision.
You can, so long as you have a long enough bar that can rotate, and long enough hoses.Oh, and the coupling gear shouldn't be on fire.
Very interesting👍
Watchers: I have no idea why I’m here
Me, an intellectual: I searched for this
God I could listen to that Received accent forever
markog1999 that's not RP, that's Yorksha
The title made me think it was about coupling trains at high speed.
Same thing today: Drive so far, that the front edges touch...klick this button ...well done^^
Technology evolution
meanwhile in America...we have auto couplers on everything.
Wow! Really? You must be really proud!
Actually we are. The process here is safer, faster, easier, and more reliable and easier to train than what is practiced there :-)
+Mike P Do you think we don't have auto couplers in Europe? Don't hurt your ass falling off your high horse. This video is 30 years old and is about the manual couplings, that doesn't mean we didn't have automatic couplers even back then. Sheesh...
You don't have auto couplers on everything. Also, you barely have any high speed trains either. And those that are, aren't even high speed.
Pity that in America they don't teach you how to read. This is a training video and it's about thirty years old.
Why is this in my recommended feed?
Ask RUclips.
Since Polish railway company bought this italian crap pendolino, it's quite often view in Poland ... old EU07 (Polish version of British Rail Class 83/AL3) + new "High Speed" train, look's quite funny :P
