Sending individual rabbits by mail to win prizes is absolutely wild. I realize that wasn't the main point of the video, but it just jumped out and caught me, and I fixated on it.
Such an outstanding look into transportation management from years gone by. These people whose job it was to get us to work and back deserve our respect and gratitude. Fathers, mothers sisters and brothers, all with a sense of purpose of taking part in this great wheel called life. May God bless you.
York was once the railway capital of the north, which I guess it still is, but it’s not quite as grand. The National Railway Museum peaked in the 90s and 2000s, and has rapidly declined in the past five years.
Enjoyed how we has nation got job done ,another history lesson as I like past more present,, as born in 1958, collect vintage music and films despite world wars ,we still world ,how things get job start to finish, which show in film
Does anyone know who was the Stationmaster in 1953 at York? My father was Stationmaster at Alyth Junction at this time - where I was born. We then moved to Armadale (West Lothian), Bridgeton Central (Glasgow) and finally Motherwell. Dad was then Area Manager based at Carstairs.
Exactly.. there was a sense of pride in the workplace back then... a vocation. Now it's "how much can I get out of it without giving too much of me". I love train travel, but the unsurity of it these days takes the fun out of it.
I noticed they made a special effort to prevent harmonic vibrations from inducing a bad finish in the cylinders while boring them by wrapping the cylinder in gun cotton held in place by chicken wire to absorb those harmonics. Old school technique still used today in some larger applications. During some of my hobby shop lathing, I still used a bunch of rubber bands around a smaller cylinder to squelch thoee vibes.
65 years I’ve been admiring engines & trains at this magnificent station and it’s still a sight for sore eyes. ‘York, this is York’ still rings in my ears from the 50’s station announcer. Thanks and well done for this video 👍👍👍
GREAT PLACE TO VISIT YORK NOT JUST THE STATION BUT THE RAILWAY AND OTHER MUSEUM'S AND THE CITY ITS SEN AND PLEANTY OF PUBS LIKE THE KINGS ARMS THAT GETS FLOODED WHEN THERES A HEAVY DOWN POUR OR RAIN

This is what the British established in my own land-the once Jewel of the Crown so many years ago. The railways now occupy the primary position of honour in India-the wheels of India turn because of its railways. We have retained nearly every law that concerns the running of our networks, preserved it all just as the British established them. Wherever I go, deep into my own land, and engage the station master of some little station so far away in the wilderness, the conversation always turns to the pioneering British, of whom so little remains except for poignant grave stones overgrown by grass and weed. Yet, these represent lives once lived in mute sacrifice and devotion to duty, so that a strange land may again live. Our thanks be unto the British. Much good was done. The ebb and flow of human recollections may fail; yet, in history both written and unwritten-in chronicles remembered or forgotten, Indians will always bow their heads in remembrance of all those nameless and now forgotten, who once lived, and toiled for a greater good.
What an age. Why can't we have all the current technology but with the human touch. I know in so many ways matters are better today, but somehow there s something missing.
The dramatic music was most impressive: it's like a 1930's thriller. I've had the thrilling experience of being inside the firebox of 5025 with a flarelamp changing firebars, an experience I'll always remember (the shed had been hit by lightning the night before and the mains electric had been killed). The sudden change to colour was quite unexpected. It reminded me of 'If'.
I love York, I was born in York, and have lived almost all of my life in York. I have door canvassed all over England, people would ask me, "Where do you live" I would answer, "York" their reply was always, "We love York it`s great, we aim to go there again,"
A tremendous film, which I viewed just after returning from a visit to the present day equivalent, which is not quite as impressive-and sad to say the station master's office is now a shop! I also have this film in both Super-8 and 16mm film versions.

There were no issues regarding maps for the last several decades ....... Suddenly maps are .............complaining ?

I was there!
hello I like York railway station now in 2024
Thanks for all your hard work
No worries!

Nice railway scenes from York.
Very nice video 🙂👍🏻
Very interesting, thanks for posting.
14:49 Love the wheelchair - an armchair on wheels!
Superbly produced piece of nostalgia now gone along with expectations of a brave new world 😊
An excellent print, expertly digitised. Thank you for the care shown in bringing this to us.
"Our transport job begins and ends by serving people". Oh yes - tell that to whoever is running the Department For Transport today!
Exactly.. there was a sense of pride in the workplace back then... a vocation. Now it's "how much can I get out of it without giving too much of me". I love train travel, but the unsurity of it these days takes the fun out of it.
Politicians are not workers.
Who are the people who we are serving? Our friends, or the public?
I enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing it.
great footage
Would far rather travel by class 91 travel
Very nice and happy new year 2024!!

Nice camera work
They’re all up to their nuts in bolts! Cheers
End of the line for the Nova 3's. December.

You can see how efficient the Germans shipped all those poor souls
Another BTF classic!
An age of respect and dignity, a sense of purpose and everything had its place, just loved the video, my how the railways have changed since then...
Are you mad ?
No one walking around with plastic coffee cups

Gr8 thanks for sharing. God bless you out there.
Please consider showing more of the station with each video
Did he just light a smoke from a rivet? Brilliant!
Ótimo trabalho ,parabéns aos americanos

Yes it’s the Whilstlestop, the rear set of windows towards the outside were the ladies toilets
