The Channel Tunnel - Life on the Inside. Episode 2 - At the Double.

[@stevenjlovelace]

It amazes me that the tunnel is just the right age where you've got people who have been working there from Day 1, and people who weren't even born when it opened.

[@PanduPoluan]

"Two-stop Tash" and "Too-tall Steve" 🤣🤣🤣

Obviously the solution to Steve's issues is a nice helmet.

[@sdesmtl]

After Eurotunnel and Concorde, UK and France need a new project together.

[@bitTorrenter]

Perhaps they can sort out the mess at Calais? That camp!

[@mikesmith5083]

I agree. We should collaborate on a joint project to halt organised crime involving the exploitation of vulnerable and displaced people lured into the promise of a better life in the UK and continental Europe. It’s a UK and EU problem that the French cannot fix by themselves…..although they could demonstrate a little more proactively at times!

[@Snaakie83]

@@bitTorrenter you mean the illegals, or the checks on goods coming from the UK? Because the first ones aren't called illegals by coincidence...and the checks are staying, and even increasing, since you decided to leave the single market.

[@jtwin1000]

yep, the new project should be stop the illegal dingy crossings and do what we are paying them to do, then we can sort out fishing , and the hostility by the french towards the british, right now a lot of the uk are just thinking fk the french, we dont need them.

[@Snaakie83]

@@jtwin1000 ah right, the illegals...or do you simply mean the foreigners? Because If it's illegals, your own government estimates no more than 2000 illegals a year try to get there with a dingy, or whatever method.... Or is it the 3,5 million EU members? Or the refugees, claiming asylum? What's the fuss about, other than some inbuilt national racism?

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"

Stopping the train for a broken tarp is stupid. It can not rip off the catenary because it is contained within the railway wagon and catenaries are copper contact cable supported by a steel cable. It is not like they break if you breathe at them.

[@eosiswastaken]

gotta love how everyone on the internet is an engineer nowadays

[@oldtabrough1026]

@15:00 mins to make an even better documentary, they should add some simple graphics to describe what's going on here. Someone who has no technical knowledge like me, I think I will appreciate better the work that these guys do if there are graphics or animation that accompany the narration

Why recirculate 32 lorries (and some unknown quantity of cars, 100?) instead of swapping the locomotive thats damaged?

[@elfinvale]

i am not an expert so this is 100% a guess! locomotives are limited to rail so logistically, despite the work, it seems far easier to just move the lorries etc. i can't imagine switching locomotives would be quick!

Real train drivers but sadly aren’t qualified to drive on standard uk railways

[@lewisbale1]

Wow, that's not fair.

[@jay-xo9dx]

@@lewisbale1 it’s because they don’t run under any conventional UK signalling, so they don’t get trained on the UK rule book which means they aren’t passed drivers for driving trains in the UK. They’d have to apply as an external applicant and do all the tests and the full training course, this is why their pay isn’t anywhere near as much as a normal UK driver as well
