Working On It - Station Porter

This week Will is at Alton station to be an apprentice porter for the day. From light-hearted laughs to crucial safety critical tasks, the job of station staff has it all!

As a porter at Ropley it was great to see this side of what we do touched on.

Once again you and the team has done another fantastic video well done to all the staff and members at the watercress line

I always love learning more about traditional railway practice and jobs.

You scrub up well Will!
As you mentioned, it's all about presentation, and that includes the staff.
As for those quiet periods, that's when you check your vegetable patch or chase pheasants!

great video,Looking smart station & staff

[@thomasm1964]

I'm not sure I want hear that you offer courses in crashes on your railway!
More seriously I am enjoying the series on what people actually do in their different roles. Gives one a much deeper appreciation of just how much work goes into making the trains run.

Your vids are so good they inspired me to 'sign-up' as a member. The magazine arrived a couple days ago which is very informative and of high quality. Keep up the good work! (Were you 'Making Plans For Nigel' then, Will?)

Hi John, that's fantastic! The magazine guys do a brilliant job.
