Enthusiasts or Chavs?

[AlexS]

Seeing this video of a bunch of reprobates running around a station shouting, swearing etc at trains, in full view of public and children, while hanging around in a large mob, are they any different to the chavs that I'm sure they moan about doing exactly the same thing?:neutral:

It's the t***s/p****s like that, that give us genuine 'Rail Enthusiasts' a bad name! :roll:

And here they are, drunk as farts, in a not surprisingly empty carriage on the way home.

Hmm. Big bad Memorex there I'm sure. What a bunch of big men they are!

 

[JonG]

What bunch of morons is this, nobody from on here I hope.

 

[Turbostar]

I'm surprised one of them didn't get hit by one of those trains, talk about too close for comfort! :neutral:

 

[devon_metro]

They sound so happy. Its only a god damn train. Get a life.

 

[Daniel]

Well, me and Martyn weren't running/shouting...

And I wasn't drunk. However, others were.

And it wasn't an empty carriage.

And, for the record, I did repeatedly ask some of the others to keep it down in the carriage.

It reminds me of a little trip where James Palmer got banned from first class by a certain conductor on FGW

 

[Turbostar]

At least I don't show off. There's enjoying yourself, & over the top, they're the latter.

Not half. The guy doing the filming was standing too close, far too close.

Also take a look at this one: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzv7AQ5ohxs

I espie a certain Memorex.

 

[Daniel]

I espie a certain Memorex.

Indeed you do. Please see my previous post...

 

[devon_metro]

Obviously memorex you aren't a culprit but some of the others were far too close. If i was driving i'd have a right mind to slam the brakes on and call BTP etc...

Agreed.

As long as they dont go under your train, and mosty of them if they're on your train dont want anything to do with anyone else. Whats the problem? I go out every Friday/Sat and get drunk all the time. It's what we call 'Fun'.

 

[thefab444]

I still don't see whats so exciting about a Valenta over MTU... :? Especially not when some prick is going PHWAAAWWWWWW over the top of the sound!

I think the drivers were probably horning out of "Get out of the way" or "You ****" (like they do with certain other members on the forum ).

 

[richa2002]

Absolute chavs. On the subject of getting drunk, do what you like at home but don't go and get drunk and make town centres a no go area after 10...

 

[VTDan]

Mate it's what i do! Just if you ever feel it's a no-go area join in! Best way. Pulling all the girls, finding out their pregnant the next day hmm. But yeah is my idea of fun.
Gotta have fun whilst you're still young. I dont know how old you are but im only in my 20s i'm sure i'll resign from it by about 35!

 

[Craig]

Absolute chavs.

I agree, complete stoats.

 

[87015]

All i will add is that i hope i never meet said dickheads. Please stay away from the GCR on Sat if u read this....

I don't think you can blame everyone who goes out for a drink for the state of many town centres. Again, it'll be a minority, generally those not particuarly pleasent before adding alcohol, which shouldn't mean everyone aged 18-30 or whatever is tarred with the same brush, much like everyone intrested in trains, or even HSTs, doesn't act or even think like these clowns.

 

[VTDan]

What do you mean by 'chavs'?? You'll probably call me a chav if you saw the clothes I wear. But you can't judge until you've met me. So just tell me whether you mean 'chavs' or troublemakers...

 

[Craig]

You'll probably call me a chav if you saw the clothes I wear.

Do you wear a tracksuit with the trouser legs tucked into white socks? If not then you're probably not a chav. Unless you wet yourself at the sight of an HST of course

 

[VTDan]

I do wear tracksuit bottoms. In fact right now im wearing Nike AirMax grey trakkies and a Nike 'Just Do It' T-shirt. However i do not tuck my trousers into my socks!

But you're brave if you call me a chav.

 

[Craig]

However i do not tuck my trousers into my socks!

You've got nothing to worry about then.

 

[VTDan]

Why Thanks! Canny nice of ya

 

[The Snap]

What's a bunch of muppets! Very, very sad - VEG!

 

[Jordy]

Very sad, chavvy, stoaty behaviour, they should be ashamed of themselves :roll:

 

[Bonemaster]

What a bunch of morons no wonder some staff go over the top because of the actions of the few

see my comment on the video

 

[Turbostar]

When I go out, yeh I go out to have a laugh, have a good time with friends, etc. etc., not to make a fool of myself, be a complete a** & moron etc. etc. Same goes when I go to watch trains, not to scream abuse & shout at trains. Ok, it's upto you what you do, but like I said, it's people like you that give us folk that behave a bad name.
