After you berth your train, do you stay with it until the end of your shift, or do you walk back to a messroom 'cabin' to book off.
If you are meant to stable it and finish or go for break then you leave it and either head straight home or to messroom and await your next pick up. I was on nights in this video and when on nights i normally find a cleaned and prepped train in the depot or sidings and chill on it for a while, i have an ipad so just watch netflix or sometimes stroll to the messroom grab a drink and heads back to the sidings. We normally get about 3-4 hours off on nights between last and first trains unless its snowing then we drive de-icing equipped trains through the night minus a 30 min break to clear the tracks so the first trains not disrupted.
Nice train audio, but your talking sounds very distant
sorry about that, the camera is on the M door in the cab and sometimes with the air con it gets loud in cab, once i return from leave any further videos will be recorded with the camera closer to me so hopefully that will help with any narration i do.
is this ato from the depot?
No, the Met is still manual north of Finchley Road. Even when ATO does come up to Wembley park the depot itself will be manual driving and outside the depot limits we will switch to ATO.
why is the train screaming at you? did you threaten it for a fault?
😁 It's the OPO alarm, Once we stop after driving say at a signal or station if i dont turn the TBC within 60 seconds then the alarm starts and i then have 30 seconds to respond by twisting it otherwise the alarm tone will get faster and then will send an emergency alarm to the control centre.
Now this brings back the time I worked in Neasden North cabin before the TMR took over when there was still a cabin at Wembley before SCC took over. Do they still name the stabling roads Lisa, Charlie and Edward?
@@whynotandy not heard those names before. What parts of the stabling roads were the names for?

Out of curiosity have you watched Dale Charman Travels? He is a Piccadilly driver and does videos similar to this!
I have yes, he does some good content on the Picc.
I've subscribed to Dale ❤ his videos
Third rail power very complicated at all those points.
Gets more complicated when you are driving a train with a certain failure to do with the auxiliary converter module that means if you stop over a power rail gap then the train goes 'off juice' and risks having to be rescued so they do try and bring us straight in to avoid the gapping risk.
Would be interesting if you could narrate what’s going on
Hi, as previously stated some videos will have narration and others wont as those will be used to train new drivers.
Ok
Nice video, its good to see this view for a change

lol. You sound as if you so wanted to be back in bed.
That looked like a really interesting video but I really struggled to hear what you were saying. Others haven't left similar comments so I'm guessing it was just me.
The camera is usually set up a few feet away on the middle M door, might of been the Air Con in the cab? will try to speak up a bit on later vids when i return from leave.

Eastcote. Who was she, and why did she ask if you were happy?
@@markdavies5662 station supervisor. Normally in the early morning and later when they change over shift they come to the platform and check the trains opo monitors in the cab to see if the cameras are aligned correctly and they ask us if we are happy with them that we see the whole platform from our in cab monitors. Sometimes for whatever reason in the night they could move off line and then they would have to call for a team to come and realign the camera. If the platform is category A of we cannot see the whole platform using the in cab monitors then a member of staff would need to stand on the platform to check the area we cannot see and give us assisted dispatch from the station. If the station is category B then it is a platform where if there is a problem we can open the cab door look back down the platform and do our own dispatch and not need a member of staff.

Hope not a silly question, but all the intermediate stations have a red light preceded by a green light, why is there no caution aspect to say there is a stop signal at the platform?
Are you referring to the station starter signals? If so it is because they are timed approach controlled which means they stay red even if the next section is clear until the approaching train has occupied the platform section for 15 seconds, if the line ahead is clear the signal turns to green but if a train is ahead of us then it will stay red until its clear.
Really nice video. My great uncle and his father before him were station masters at Rickmansworth and Chalfont and Latimer back in the 1930s to the 1970s so im always interested in the Metropolitan line. Its my local tube line too so its nice to see this video of the depot as well. Subscribed and hit the notification bell too
Thanks for the sub, glad you enjoyed the content. Met line is a great line full of history.
I used to commute on the a stock from Harrow to work in the west end
they were awesome trains, was fun to see luggage flying off the racks when drivers flew through neasden at more than the 40 limit 😁
The thing that used to freak me when I was a kid was with the a stock when it left the platform at Eastcote going to Uxbridge the lights used to go out don’t know if it the same now cos I ain’t been back home for 20+ years 🤣
@@andrewfieldhouse1945 that was when they used to go over the current rail gaps, the S Stock doesnt have that they have 2 auxillary converter modules that distributes the power around the train so if 1 half is over a gap it gets the current it needs from the other end. The A stock in summer was fun going into city as some drivers had saloon nights off to keep saloon cool and then forgot to turn them on at finchley rd so would be darkness to baker st 😁
@@traindrivergamer4279yep the times the lights went off at Finchley Road and stayed off
Great content as always but I’m curious did you ever drive the a stock or is this the only stock you have driven on the met line?
glad you enjoying the content. No i never got to drive the A stock, would of loved to as travelled on them so many times as a passenger. Only driven S Stock on the met.
It’s fascinating that so many sections of the Tube outside of central London are actually overground - I often wonder will this be the case when the DART underground in Dublin and the Dublin Metro eventually get built 🇮🇪☘️🇬🇧❤️
We've been testing in ATO/ PM Mode right up to Signals 701, 703, and 704. Whether that will be the actual arrangements at CBTC Commissioning, I don't know, but the functionality is available.
How is CBTC progressing?
Makes sense as thats the beginning of control by neasden tower, guessing that will be the point when depot rules apply comes up on the SID and then RM from there into depot.
@@traindrivergamer4279 That is the plan. Depot rules apply will also appear at the South End of the yard.

Hi mate, why are there so many new signal lights covered over with black plastic bags? Some are even in a lowered position. Been like it for ages. Would be good to know
Hi, they are new signals that will be controlled by the ato system when that section goes live. The chiltern trains and any engineering trains that wont use the system will follow those new lineside signals and the met trains will follow the info on the drivers SID in the cab.

Interesting article on the current stock on Met and suburban lines: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Underground_S7_and_S8_Stock
Lovely train to drive :)
OK, a question as I'm not an train operator, only interested in how it all goes. Typically how long are you in training, learning the road, (rules) etc before they let you go solo? Or should that be proprietrary information?
minimum is 16 weeks, the first 3 weeks are in the classroom in an intensive course learning rules and regulations, train procedures, emergency situations etc. 2 exams followed by 1 final exam at the end of the 3 weeks tested on everything you have learnt including spad procedures. Once you pass that you then go to your assigned line and depot and begin line based training followed by stock which is learning all about your train and how to fix defects etc. Then you are assigned an instructor and will be driving in passenger service for 12-14 weeks with the last 2 weeks called wash up where you and the instructor will cover any reversal moves you have not done and anything you want to refresh. Then its the summartive assessment or 'road test' where you are driving with an assessor in the cab who monitors your driving and then afterwards will ask you a number of questions about general rules and procedures, line based questions and stock defect questions. Once thats done you are out by yourself and regulary monitored for the first few months and then you have yearly refreshers same as other drivers.
