Joking apart, it’s very concerning that you were watched and banned. True there is a silly bye law that says you may require permission if it’s not ‘private photography’ you’re doing ….BUT…..you are actually doing an amazing promotional job on behalf of the TOCs, they should welcome you. I hope this hasn’t worried you too much or put you off giving us all a weekly vlog, I’m sure you won’t just accept this without a fight back…they should apologise to you. There is an army of us happy to back you on this G. Go girl! All the best. 🚂🚴‍♂️👣🇺🇦

It would be interesting to know whether videoing in for a you tube video is deemed to be a commercial/business activity, or one for private purposes. I guess if making money from it, then it could be considered that permission is needed, but if so a lot of other you tubers are in the same boat.

Spot on there Brian. 👣

Sorry you were treated like that. Well done for not letting them break your spirit. Another fine vlog. 💯

Congratulations G. All the Stations totally missed the longest bench at Scarborough.

Can't believe the ending to that as always great vlog.Banned ? Too much big brother. Keep up the good work G.

Another well presented video .. just a pity who were treated so badly. Reminds me ... A couple years ago, I made a few films on the Newcastle Metro system and during one of my earlier ones, I had a problem with a new driver. The drivers actually change at South Gosforth and about 30 seconds after he got in his wee cab he opened the door and said I couldn't film .. Why ? I asked, I've seen plenty of folk taking photographs on the trains. Anyway I got out at the next station and while waiting for my return train, I heard over the tannoy 'FILMING IS NOT ALLOWED ON THE METRO SYSTEM' The driver had obviously radioed somebody. I returned to the previous station, walked about 30 metres from the platform to the Metro HQ and asked for a permit to film. Within 5 minutes I was kindly given a type-written one by a very understanding and helpful customer services member. I got the next train and finished my film. I should have waited for that same driver on his return trip, but never thought about that at the time. For all future filming, I always got a permit to film, but was never asked again ... obviously, it was just one of those ‘jobsworth’ members of staff we all meet once in a while.

We need a back story as to why they were tracking you 👀

It's just the way the railways operate these days. Back in the early 1980's when I went around the country by rail (free pass as I was a railway employee) snapping all the branchlines, you never thought of reporting to the staff first before you started taking pictures, now, if you rock up to a station to take photographs you're supposed to let the staff know what you are doing, whether it's a commercial activity or not. I still do a bit of railway snapping and will always tell the staff what I'm doing. The majority will have a 'carry on mate' approach but not always, I was turned down flat at Stratford upon Avon a couple of years ago. At Rugby the staff were fine but did remind me of the rules; no flash etc. I think as we, as a society, become more and more suspicious about what people are up to things may get worse. Remember, even at an unstaffed station with not a soul about we will be being watched on CCTV. It's a shame as the vast majority of railway snappers and vloggers operate in a very responsible way and people like 'G' actually do a fantastic job of getting people interested in our rail network AND using it.

Oh dear. I hope you can share more about your treatment. Hope it didn’t ruin your day

As others have said, puzzled why they would track and ban you? Cannot see any logical reason for that.

Thank you for sharing G

They have always been anti railway enthusiasts at Hull. They would harass you for only having an SLR camera around your neck. With a mobile phone, you could secretly take what you like, without them knowing.

So normally at this point I would be commenting about how Hull is where I was born, about how I'd walk to Cottingham with my Grandad as a child, how my friend Phil Whitley lives in Driffield. However. Instead I am annoyed and somewhat perplexed. How, and why, were they tracking you? Who exactly was tracking you and how did you find out about it? I need to know this so I can send the sternly worded email to the right people. You should be able to travel and vlog as you please. I am bloody livid.

You're promoting the use of the trains - especially Northern...if I were in charge, you'd have a free pass. Keep up the great work, I enjoy your vlogs immensely.

Awesome Video G Loves Trains 😄😄

Such a cool misty day with a beautiful beach at the end! I’m sorry you got harassed on that journey, but thank you for hanging in there! 😎

Thanks for a great vlog. you have done more to encourage people to travel on the line than the railway company has ever done right until the sad ending. What's going on?

Great vlog G, I’ve never visited these stations and they do look nice. Fun fact one of my mums aunts is called Beverley. Banned and tracked for riding trains down this line how come I’ve never heard of that happening to anyone before?

@GLovesTrains

Hello Beverley! Had a issue with me getting off at stations, I've moved on from it now tho 👍

Cottingham's served by 4 Hull Trains services a day - 2 in the morning (06:11, 07:59) heading to London, and 2 in the evening (18:36, 21:42) to Beverley. All are as part of extensions of Hull Trains services from Hull to Beverley

I went to Scarborough a few years ago, but completely forgot about the long bench, so I didn't go see it. I need to go back, and also do down the coast there too.

I love the work this young lady does. I hope it encourages more females into the hobby. Those northern train seats put the modern rock hard tea trays to shame

Keep up the great work 👍 I really enjoy your videos !

Woo! Scarborough! I did not know about the bench when I was there, very cool to see.

Jobworths - I’ve never heard that one before, but I do live in country NSW in Australia.😃Anyway G, I’d call them “Nobsworths”. You’re promoting train travel, I’ve seen heaps of your videos - and never once have you been derogatory or rude or disparaging about any operator, you’re not vandalising property, and you’ve got a legitimate ticket. So what’s the problem? Any fair minded manager would, or should, view these videos to see how their railway is running, and how it looks to the average punter. Don’t let this put you off more vids. All the best👍🏻

Some person raised his voice to me when i tried taking a photo on Scarborough station a few years ago. N*b ends the lot of them. The bench dates from the days of people going on holiday by train and railway excursions when the station would be thronged every weekend from Easter to September. Also the train that ran to Whitby up the coast line departed from near there, (Platform 1A, I believe🤔)

I had the same issue when I went to Ebbsfleet International Railway Station for trainspotting and wasn't allow to filmed there! Wasn't banned to go onto the station again but got to get permission from the manager to film there and they said no. Had no problem at Ashford International or Stratford International without permission. Had none of this at any other stations I been to!

I don't what it is but I really like your posts. Well done, keep them coming.

Did marketing get upset that there was a narrative they weren't controlling? I suggest doing a series of I'm banned from this station videos and rub it in by going there in a car. Tossers missing out on free publicity. I hope the episode doesn't dent your enthusiasm for travel and exploring.

Banned ? Do they not know who you are ?!?!?!? 🤣🤣 Joking apart G, you and everyone else who Vlogs about the Railways do more good for train travel than the TOC’s ( let’s face it, some are crap ) I got pulled at Headbolt Lane for using my Drone. Apparently, I needed permission to fly which is bull as it’s perfectly legal to fly in an unrestricted public place. I had my CAA ID with me and, When I told them and quoted the legal side, I got the walk of shame off them. I hope it’s not bothered you as obviously, it’s a couple of months ago now. Let me know if you get any more trouble, 2 of us from The Wigan will sort em out 🤣🤣 Seriously though, I will make a complaint on your behalf. Your Vlogs ( & Lucy’s ) have helped me to have the enthusiasm to go out places.

A few Hull Trains go north of Hull to/from Beverley via Cottingham.Northern and Hull Trains are the only passenger operators using that line until you get to Seamer or Hull depending on if you are going north or south when you meet Trans Pennine.

You have done nothing wrong why where you banned

I never knew that the longest railway bench was to be found at Scarborough Railway Station! Another nice video!

G your beautiful and videos interesting ❤

Hello!! I'm the local Driffield spotter!!!!!!!

What a disgrace, promoting going out and having fun on the railways and you’re thanked with being tracked and banned. Whoever is responsible should be ashamed. Great video as always, and I hope that silly carry on didn’t sour your mood as you got most of the stations anyway. Keep doing what you do, and keep doing it how you do it G 💪

I am very annoyed that some jobsworth has treated you the way they did. The majority on the railway are part of a Railway Family, I am one, though recently retired. We welcome lovely people like yourself and encourage you promoting railways. Unfortunately people coming onto the railway nowadays are only there for the money and not job satisfaction as used to be the case. I know it won't deter you and your wonderful vlogging. I am actually surprised these train operators do not sponsor you in some way as you do such a remarkble job showing people how easy it is to get out there and see our wonderful country by train. However your strength showed through and you produced yet another fantastic vlog. Keep em coming G, excellent work, Ray x

First sat on that bench in September 2020..... couldn't take any chances with social distancing 😊

I think Hull Trains started calling at Cottingham in 2016

Brilliant vlog and love watching your vlogs on a Tuesday evening @glovestrains

Why ban you. What have you done wrong How crazy to do that. Don't let it stop you doing the videos they sure brilliant

i holidayed in Scarborough back in 2017 its an amazing seaside town & the station is lovely aswell & while holidaying there i also rode this line down to Hull & its a nice line to ride & the stations look lovely along this route & i also visited Bridlington aswell which is a great seaside town but it isnt as big as Scarborough tho awesome vlog

Hi G, another great vlog, very pretty stations but Scarborough looked very picturesque, why were they tracking you? probably someone trying to prove their job, ignore them and keep producing excellent vlogs that showcase and promote train travel. Looking forward to the next one, stay safe.

Another fantastic vlog as always G & i would also like to know why they were tracking your movements no doubt you heard that Felix the station cat at Huddersfield passed away if you are a cat person of course

You randomly sneaked into my dream last night. We were having a quiz about railway stations. You had to guess how many stations Germany has and I had to guess how many stations the UK has. I only remember that you seemed excited and happy, but nothing more unfortunately.

I really like what they've done inside the waiting area at Bridlington - that is lovely to see! From that to what that operating company did to you - you are giving them free publicity, and you get THAT in return? Followed down the line and then banned? Charming - some jobsworth is trying to make a name for themselves, I would guess. I hope you eventually get a full apology! Anyway G, hope it didn't get you down too much.

When I lived in Beverley back in 2009, I used to have problems getting the first Hull trains to London as the first train from Beverley arrived in Hull just after the first London train left. I sent them an email saying that they should start their service from Beverley because of the bad connection - looks like a few years later they did.

I used to catch the Hull Executive sometimes, kinda wish it still ran.

If someone was tracking your location without your knowledge and without the use of a GPS system, it's entirely illegal and a full complaint should absolutely be put in because it constitutes as stalking at the end of the day. Though why anyone would want to stalk you knowing there is a knicker monster not too far away, I'm not sure

Contact the railways companies. See if they will give you some written permission. Filming is getting such a nightmare because of certain people filming kids out and about. I do suggest contacting the companies, they might surprise you. Here's hoping.

Hi glovestrains If I was you I,d contact whoever owns them stations and ask them why were you tracking me and what reason they banned you they can’t just ban you without giving a valid reason don’t let them win keep up the good work 👍

Why on earth would they ban you? They should sponsor you for advertising their services!

Train spotters/enthusiasts are like peoplw that ware glasses.(something wrong with them,nor quite normal)

What were you banned for, if anything what your an advert for the stations you visit

Great vedeo, but how can you be banned from a train? do they come up to you and tell you or send you a letter?

Looks like a great day out until you found out you were tracked and “banned”???!! What happened? I don’t understand their rationale - is it the knickers? 😜🤦‍♂️

Tracked? I don’t get you. Good video nonetheless. The Whitby station bench is another long one. Must be an NER seaside station thing.

ah bridlington use to have a caravan there long sold and gone now recently or so visited the priory there on way home from Filey use to pass though bridlington to flamborough light house witch i wont be doing now that its charming rotating light ans gentle sweeping beams are gone in replacement to a horrid blinking double white led static lamp only time id go to bridlington again is to better explore the priory church and its grave yard didnt get a proper chance to nosie or wonder inside and have a look

Well, that ending came out of nowhere. What arseholes. How dare you give them publicity
