Other local staff I noted were - 02:50 Bertie Haystead, 03:40 Donnie Wickham, 04:09 Alfie Mallett and I heard Ted Sharp announcing the arrival of the London train at 09:51, bet Nobby was doing 12 hours Steve. lol
How are you doing Steve? Jamie Whalen shot this video, and I asked him for a copy. The original also features Barry Ketteridge, Martin Steele, Mick Kassa, and various others. I edited them out for the youTube upload. Best wishes.
@@steffanmaximum Hi there Steve, I am well thanx, spend a lot of my time helping Steve Wilky with his numerous projects , keeps my mind and body active in my later years ! Did not realise that Jamie was a bit of an railway buff, kept that to himself. should have posted the full vid if it wasn't to long nice to see the old faces mate. You still living in Norfolk ? Best wishes to you also mate.
@@stephendey5056 Hi Steve, yeah still in Norfolk. Once you're in, you can't get out. When Jamie first joined the railway he was going round with his dad's video camera filming everything. He filmed me driving a DMMU from Ely, Pip was the guard. I couldn't possibly put that on RU-vid. Say hi to Wilky from me.
@@steffanmaximum Yep retired a few months ago due to stress ,depression and anxiety ,due to covid and new technology , I still miss the railway though (ps is that your real name ) ?
1990 was a time of great variety of trains for these lines out of Liverpool Street so glad I experienced them as a kid that being the 302s 305s 309s 310s 312s 315s 317s 321s 322s couldn’t believe the different classes of trains I was seeing on the Hertford east branch even some 313s appeared for a short time and in a space of only 3 years a once in a lifetime opportunity I’d say never to repeat itself again sad when you look at it in that perspective, the stansted express 322s looked so smart when they came about but sadly privatisation and their hideous livery ideas and the defacing of some older 317 units to replace them ruined all that of course.
Hey, I came here because I tried to reply a rather powerful and important message to you on Norbzworld video and all of a sudden strange things happened, I wasn't able to post and commenting on Norbz video's was turned off, which seems to be related because it was fine until I tried to make the comment, though now when I click on your reply on notifications it only shows a blank white page I also tried to copy my message as I always do on here because so used to youtube disappearing my comments, but for some strange reason that's never happened before the copy/paste didn't work, and I also lost the message I wrote for you.. It was as if I'd copied nothing and my message then was just gone I'll have to re-write the message the same as it was as best I can and post it here for you, as I feel there's a reason that I wasn't able to share and express with you what I tried to.. Will re-write the message shortly as just in the middle of making some food at the minute
In response to you saying how you would research more.. I tried to reply and say this or something like this, though I would say I expressed it in a better way earlier when I first wrote it.. It's a shame I lost what I wrote earlier though this expresses mostly the same exact things, just in a different way I'd recommend that instead of looking outside of yourself for information, that you look within more and ask yourself questions because this is a major key and what all of humanity needs to do, to look within and learn to know thyself.. Because from doing this comes many realisations that those who want to deceive humanity do not want people to experience, realise and know.. It's what all the main deceptions and all the distractions serve to keep people from doing, from looking within and learning to know ourselves, because one of the things that come from this is we learn to known more who and what we truly are , which is not a random result of some big bang and the evolutionary descendants of primates, we're far from that.. and what we truly are is also not the product/result of our body and our electrical impulses of the brain as mainstream science theories like to tell people, and we're not just something that will die with the body.. We're much more than that.. and so looking within and learning to know thyself is what all of humanity should be doing.. It is also the most important thing that all people should be doing to raise our own awareness of many things It can be useful to sometimes look outwardly for some inspiration but it really is so important that we look within and ask ourselves questions.. Which apart of what this means to ''look within'' and ''know thyself'' is to use our awareness /self awareness to observe our mind, thoughts and feelings which is how we gain awareness and inner-standing of these things.. It's also how we can learn to interpret our dreams.. Most dream scenario's are manifest by a more subconscious part of our mind and will most often be symbolic of our thoughts and feelings, and for some reason tend to manifest based on our fears, worries and insecurities into dreams scenarios that are symbolic of these thoughts and feelings... Which is why with knowledge and awareness of self we can recognize which of our thoughts and feelings are being manifested and represented symbolically in our dream state, so we can over come or let go those thoughts and feelings.. Though this is just one type of dream state, there are others where the conscious aware mind is much more present in the dream state, and so those dream states won't be manifest as much by the subconscious mind Learning to look within, and to quiet out mind also helps us to connect with our heart and intuition which of course is important.. Our mind is not who we truly are either, which is something most people don't recognize and it's a mistake most people make, to think that their mind is actually who they are.. We are far from what the mind is, much more than that... What we truly are should be seen more as our awareness that observes ourselves, our thoughts, our feelings etc. .. In some other more pure states of being and existence we are as pure awareness.. When we quiet the mind is what allows our intuition to speak to us, though it doesn't use words like our mind voice does, intuition and inner-knowing comes straight from the heart to our awareness is one way to put it.. Our heart is actually the more powerful and more significant part of our bodies than the brain is, to put one way, it is the more powerful bio-computer than the brain, and has a much stronger electromagnetic torus field that emanates from the heart, which is even known to mainstream science that our heart emits an electromagnetic field in the shape of a torus field.. It's what the meaning behind the expression ''there's a voice that doesn't use words, listen'' is.. And so when we quiet the mind is when we can connect more with our intuition and heart.. Which is also what one of the purposes of meditation is When we put out our intent it's also best to do it straight from the heart rather than to try to do it with language in our mind voice, because of how language has been targeted and distorted so much.. Which is to disrupt our ability to manifest things into reality.. Originally on earth we would have been able to create as we think/imagine, and as we speak with spoken sound, and we would have communicated telepathically.. Our imagination is also one of our tools to create and manifest things into reality with, and spoken language was originally used for this too.. Though this was at a time-point much more originally on earth Our intent and choices, our consent or non consent also counts a lot and we should make a choice and our intent known about everything that's happening on earth, and if we allow and consent to it, or don't allow and don't consent I didn't mention this earlier but something else that can be important to know about is how we can protect ourselves in a spiritual sense with what is basically an energy shield... If we use our intent and imagination to imagine a sphere of energy emanating from our heart, with the intent that it is our energetic space that no other being in spirit form with negative intent can pass through into your energetic space, then this will serve to protect us spiritually... Which might sound a bit ''out there'' , but is quite an important concept to be aware of, and is not a made up fantasy thing as most people would choose to believe in their pure ignorance This only pretty much scratches the surface of how our choices, our consent or non consent, our intent and also imagination are so significant and mean a lot, and is used against us by those who know about it, and know what it means and how significant it is.. It's the reason for what people know as predictive programming and that kind of programming/conditioning, and the reason for why a lot of things are depicted in media/movies, to program and condition us, and give us a choice of allowing and consenting to these things or not, and also often is programming us to imagine certain things happening because it will be helping to create and manifest these things into reality.. Which is why for quite a few years movies with earth cataclysms were being fed to people constantly... and is why now we have movies about mainly certain kinds of technology being fed to us... It's more programming and conditioning people to accept technology that will be released to the public eventually
@@ItsFrenzy26 Thank you for your insight. I'm new to all of this as I only started to "awaken" in April 2020, at the age of 66. Prior to this, I did have what could be called an epiphany when I was aged 30. I was driving at the time, and had a moment that may have lasted only a fraction of a second, but I suddenly felt one with the universe, and that I understood everything, and that God was everywhere, and everything. I felt elated, but over the years came mortgage, children, and I was once again lost in the material world. The covid narrative once again gave me a very negative feeling of evil in this world, and so here I am, a seeker of truth. Better late than never I suppose. If you wish to communicate further it would be better to email me on maximumsteffan@protonmail.com.
@@steffanmaximum Nice.. I get that.. I don't use e-mails much, but I do use facebook to share concepts and information.. I just mainly wanted to share those few concepts with you and mainly to say that basically all we need can be found within, and there's no need to search outside of ourselves for answers as much as many people do.. I'm guessing you don't use facebook?
@@steffanmaximum You don't need to thank me, it's what I'm here for.. You're welcome though The only other thing I would say is to obviously think twice about what's currently going on with the vaccines.. Nothing is as it seems, and we're at what is an extremely important point in time right now that people think twice about what is actually going on, and choose wisely.. People must find the truth for themselves though.. And as I'm sure you probably know, people won't get the actual truths from mainstream sources..
For a non-train guy, there are three aspects of this footage that I find amazing. 1) That you were compelled to film such an ordinary experience; 2) That you labelled and kept all the video tapes until you converted to digital; 3) That you have captured a zeitgeist of yesteryear.
I have a confession to make. I did not video this, but a young trainee did. As he had also filmed me I asked for a copy. Of course, I edited myself out as I didn't want any offers from Hollywood. Once being asked if I wanted to join the Freemasons was bad enough.
I'm so lazy. When I had everything on VHS, I was meticulous in organising it all. Now, I have so much stuff on SD cards, and memory sticks, DVDs and tapes still waiting to be converted, it's a bit overwhelming.
These are all video I took when working in London for Lambeth Building Society. So pleased to see that they have been loaded onto RU-vid for all to see. Finally achieved a lifetime ambition to drive buses for Stagecoach East Kent go couple of years. Sadly not driving Routemasters though. While making these films I ended up being detained by the law due to filming around Houses of Parliament one day. Fortunately they let me go and the Police Officer’s Dad lived just round the corner from my home address! Thanks Stefan.
NSE everywhere....how I remember it as a kid. Still a few 309s knocking about too, and the 321s were still pretty new and shiny at that point. 30 whole years ago, Christ! Almost everything has changed since then, Stratford area the most. Virtually unrecogniseable now. Better...? Hard to say. :-/
Hi absolutely like your video of norwich station in 1990 watched this quite a few time's as it'sgiven me inspiration for my model railway I was wondering if you have anymore old video's of train's as i find very them very interesting please feel freeto subscribe to my RU-vid channel kind regards Jason 🚈🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃
The class 90s for the freight sector were delivered in 1989/90 so they were definitely around in 1990 on all the electrified freight routes, though still quite new.
The cameraman unfortunately missed filming Stratford, which was a pity, as it would have been interesting to see the old, much changed Stratford station.
Very interesting! I'm a bus driver in sheffield, and I wish they'd have buses where it was pass only, with the driver separated from the passengers. Passengers are what make this job so hard.
