Glad to see footage of my late Dad (Dennis Cadywould).

This has got to rank as one of the most insightful railway documentaries ever made. Congratulations to all concerned.

Brilliant film. It reconfirmed to me that it doesn't matter the era, the owners and management of any organisation will always be thinking up ways to short-change the hard-working men and women who create the wealth in the name of efficiency, and without strong union representation they will probably win. Thank goodness that even in 2025 this lesson has not been forgotten by those who work on the railways.

Quite possibly the best modern railway video I have watched - congratulations to all concerned, you should be proud.

one of the best railway videos I have ever watched, was like reading a really good book that you can't put down. Thanks Gary

As a Railway man of 28 years I really enjoyed watching this 👍

I love these type of documentary's it is so great to record the people and conditions of the times before they fade into the obscurity of history , the never ending conflict of management against the working men in trying to run an efficient railway and yet they all want the same thing at heart.

Amazed to hear Ms Roche at 18:00. The things the managers said to her when she was recruited, were exactly the same things said to me as a female new recruit in 1977, even though I was miles away on a different railway division.

Great film, brings back many happy memories having also worked at Kings across as a driver. Andy should receive recognition for his swift actions at Potters Bar. Also great to see Les who provided me support following my one under.

A truly superb account of working for BR before Privatisation ruined the comradeship that existed between staff. Highly Recommended!

Although I only spent the first 6 years of my 40 year railway career on the GN at the Cross, the remainder on the GE I still regard myself as a GN man, now volunteering in far flung exile on the SDR in Devon, once a railwayman always a Railwayman, interestingly I finished my career managing the Son of one my Supervisors (who appears in the film) at the Cross, pity I was unable to take part in the film I had a few stories to tell of my time in the Travel Centre.

Thoroughly accomplished and with articulate railway workers talking unselfconsciously about their jobs.  Better than many of the transport films made 50+ years ago.Worth
looking for a copy of Top Shed by P.N. Townend (Ian Allen Ltd).

I remember back in the 80’s when my father had a heart attack I travelled up to Edinburgh to visit for the weekend. I parked my car in the street alongside the parcels area on Friday night and hopped on the night train with my young daughter.  We returned Sunday evening car still there and drove home.  Free parking all weekend.  Ah memories!

Fabulous record of the lives of the people of the King’s Cross railway 👏👏👏

Went there so often as a school kid 1958 to 1963 trainspotting with mates, platform ticket 2d. We saw Mallard, Silver Fox and many others, head up to Hatfield or Hitchin to see them at speed, a superb day out. Grew up with the sound of steam engines day and night, a great era.

Brilliant , even as a Cambridge Driver there were so many faces and names i remember from the days when we still worked into KX as well as Liverpool St. So many memories Thank you Gary Sell

Absolutely wonderful. Though I was not at King's Cross (I was Waterloo, Old Oak, then Staines and finally Reading), this is a fascinating film. When I was on my MP12 at Waterloo, we had a King's Cross secondman on my course, Tony Williams I think his name was, got his drivers job at Tattenham. He laughed heartily when he saw his first little ed (class 73). Very funny guy..

What a wonderful film. I first went to Kings Cross as a day tripper in 1962. Then from 1989
having moved south I commuted into the Cross regularly and every time I passed through
the station it was an enjoyable experience. Thank you for posting a great piece of railway history.

Brilliant what a great piece of history. Thanks for posting.

Very good and well done to the team. Good to see and hear some of my colleagues from my time at KX.
