I remember watching this very documentary as a kid - and Inside Story also did a similar doc a few years before this one about the Intercity Network - I'd love to see that one again!

I'm so glad i'm a guard on diesel lines and OLE lines! 3rd rail scares me!
-
I did training at eastleigh in 1980 & we were down on the track & were being shown how to pull a hook switch, I can tell you having trains passing you down the track is bloody scary & being so close to the live third rail..

@HoodedFig900 That's the standard practice with the third rail, even today. Just don't touch it.
-
is it dead? well its got no Head lol
-
@HoodedFig900 it was off
-
It takes a brave person to walk along the track.
-
@toppackage oh right lol i was gonna say isn't that a bit dangerous
-
"its got no head" ...... "oh lovely" PMSL!
I cannot believe they made people step over the third rail. I hope that the current was discharged before they did.
