Well, it's that time of year again. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
The days are longer. The sun is shining. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
It's time to get away for a break. But where to go? | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
Decisions, decisions. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
This week, I've come to a bustling hub | 0:00:14 | 0:00:18 | |
of international and national travel. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
So, all aboard. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
To meet the people who help put the railway staff | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
and passengers back on track. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:26 | |
To talk to people on the move. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
And to enjoy hymns from around Great Britain. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
I've come to St Pancras train station | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
in the heart of London. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:48 | |
It's been voted one of the capital's favourite landmarks. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
With its Victorian architecture, you can definitely see why. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Over 40 million passengers use this station annually | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
en route to destinations both near and far. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
It's also, of course, a gateway to Europe. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
And our first hymn certainly fits the bill. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
Everyone's rushing around, but if you stop to talk to people, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
you'd be amazed at where they've come from | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
and where they're going to. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:52 | |
-You're from... -Brisbane, Queensland. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
How do you guys know each other, then? | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
Schoolmates. And we haven't seen each other for 57 years. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
Last time I was here I had hair. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:05 | 0:04:06 | |
-Do you use this railway station a lot? -Yes, I do. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
I always have to come here | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
to get some tarts for my husband on the way home. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
Oh, isn't that lovely? Wish my wife did that for me. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
What are you doing here today? | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
-I've just been to wave goodbye to my uncle, Rod. -Where's he going? | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
To Paris, and then after that, he's going to Spain. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
And he didn't take you with him? | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
So, tell me why you're in the station today? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
I actually live here. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
I actually live just overlooking the Eurostar terminal in St Pancras. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
-Absolutely fab. -You live in the station? -I do. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
It's fantastic. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:45 | |
From my bedroom window, I can look out onto St Pancras arch | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
and see that right from where I'm standing. It's brilliant. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
Have you got a favourite bit? | 0:04:53 | 0:04:54 | |
The big statue of them. The soldier kissing his girl goodbye. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:58 | |
-I think that's really good. -Yes, it is. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
I like the plinth that goes round the bottom, | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
because if you go around it, it's got all sorts of things, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
like miners and nurses, railwaymen. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
All sorts of things. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
The station is obviously named after a saint, | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
and I'll tell you more about him in just a moment. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |

"What the Londoner sees in his mind's eye | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
"is that cluster of towers and pinnacles | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
"seen from Pentonville Hill. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:35 | |
"And outlined against a foggy sunset. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
"And the great arc of Barlow's train shed, | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
"gaping to devour incoming engines, | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
"and the sudden burst | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
"of exuberant Gothic of the hotel, seen from gloomy Judd Street." | 0:07:50 | 0:07:55 | |
I'm sure you'd agree that the inside | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
of this celebrated Victorian building is pretty incredible. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
But, without this man, the building would have been demolished. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
Poet Laureate Sir John Betjeman fought to save this famous landmark. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
Good on him. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:15 | |
His statue stands here, marvelling at the wonderful St Pancras arch. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
Well, his determination is mirrored in our next hymn. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
I've discovered that St Pancras was a Christian, | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
martyred in the fourth century, aged just 14. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
St Pancras Old Church, which is close to the station, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
was named after him. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:42 | |
It's thought to be one of the oldest churches in the UK. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
We're here at St Pancras. The list of destinations is endless. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
Modern technology, of course, | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
means we can cover a very large distance in a small space of time. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
From here, you can be in Europe in just a few hours. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
Amidst the hustle and bustle at the station, | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
there is a team of chaplains at work. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
'The thing that really keeps me going is that | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
'Jesus was out and about and he was rolling his sleeves up | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
'and he was getting stuck into people's lives. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
'That's very much what you see as a railway chaplain.' | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
Jeff Potter is based at the station, and on the trains. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
He sees the highs and lows of both the passengers and the staff. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
It has its ups and downs. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
You often see the tragedies of life, | 0:11:32 | 0:11:33 | |
people that have been killed on the railway, meet the families, | 0:11:33 | 0:11:38 | |
meet people that have seen really nasty incidences, | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
but you also get involved | 0:11:41 | 0:11:43 | |
in the nitty-gritty of personal life, as well, | 0:11:43 | 0:11:45 | |
for people on the station. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
It's like a little community, a little family. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
'And how did you become a railway chaplain, then? | 0:11:52 | 0:11:54 | |
'Well, it goes back a long way. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
'I came to faith when I was in the army, as a young man. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
'While serving in Northern Ireland, I felt that... | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
'A call from God, I suppose you'd call it, really, | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
'where I thought I could do more things in life.' | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
So, I left the army, | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
went to theology college for a couple of years, | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
and then applied to London City Mission, who supply the chaplains. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
They gave me the job to work as the underground chaplain, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
and I've done that for eight years. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
And six years working at Liverpool Street as a chaplain, | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
and I've been over at King's Cross for about three-and-a-half years, | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
now, covering this station, as well. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
During the London bombings, lots of terrible stuff going on, | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
and lots of people just out walking the streets, | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
trying to get home, and you know, the carnage that had gone on there. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
I was in the station and a train driver got off the train | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
and he walked over and he saw the badge and he said, "Oh, Chaplain! | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
"So, where's your God been today?" And I said, | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
"Well, perhaps he's been people going around, like ourselves, | 0:12:52 | 0:12:56 | |
"and we'd be trying to help people, | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
"taking out water, and tea and biscuits, | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
"and give them whatever comfort we can do in a bad situation." | 0:13:00 | 0:13:04 | |
And he said, "Oh, all right, then. Perhaps you've got a point." | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
Sort of walked off. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
Often, people will say, "Why did you become a Christian? | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
"You seem quite normal." | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
And there's just great opportunities to explain about your own faith, | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
and to also talk about other people's faiths, as well. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
And to learn a little about, you know, their lifestyles, | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
and their backgrounds and their faiths. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
As you walk around and you feel that you've got a connection to God | 0:13:27 | 0:13:31 | |
yourself, you're hoping that, in some way, | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
that connection is going to be made with other people. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
Through them - even though you know you're imperfect, | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
and you do things wrong - | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
through them seeing God at work in you, and in your life. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
As well as the railway chaplains, there are others | 0:15:41 | 0:15:45 | |
-who are here to help. Good to see you. -Nice to meet you. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
You've got, sort of, multiple roles in the station, haven't you? | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
I have, yes. I also work for Eurostar. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:54 | |
I'm an engineer. That's my full-time job. And with the police, | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
I'm a special constable. And I just give a bit of time every month. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
What's the best bit about the job that you're doing now? | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
It really is the communication. Meeting people. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
You know, this place is fantastic for that. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
You see people from all different walks of life. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
Some people don't need your help, some people do need your help. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
And it's nice to be able to see if you can assist in some way. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
I supervise a team of police officers | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
and community support officers. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
We're responsible for the overall security in the station. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
We deal with passport control, retailers, | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
and immigration authorities, the French police. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
We deal with all aspects of policing within the station. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
For you, it's a new crowd every day. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:41 | |
Yes, we have a transit population in the passengers, | 0:16:41 | 0:16:44 | |
but this place is a small town centre. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:46 | |
So, the staff remain consistent. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
We form close working relationships with them, | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
to make the place the safe, nice environment that it is. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
Basically, it is very, very much a community on rails. | 0:16:55 | 0:17:01 | |
Do you get a lot of support from the railway chaplains? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
Yes. The railway chaplains are fantastic. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
There are certain things you don't want to take home with you. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
And you don't want to impart upon your partner, or anybody else, | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
and that's where, in my view, the railway chaplains are fantastic. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:18 | |
They are able to listen to you and, if not necessarily give you advice, | 0:17:18 | 0:17:21 | |
but it's just nice to offload it onto someone. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
'We get everyday policing issues, | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
'but we also get the really lovely thing in the morning,' | 0:17:28 | 0:17:32 | |
when the kids are going up on the Eurostar, the happy faces, | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
the tired faces when they come back. Not many days I don't enjoy. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:40 | |
It's such a nice place to work. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
I still, after 38 years, enjoy coming to work. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
Well, these lucky travellers are heading off to Europe. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
Isn't it funny how people say "God speed" | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
as someone sets off on a trip? | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
It's a traditional way of wishing someone | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
a safe and successful journey, with God's help. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
Well, our next hymn shares the same sentiments. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
The chaplains are always on the move, | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
travelling out to other stations, | 0:20:53 | 0:20:54 | |
meeting staff and passengers along the way. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
No day's the same. You can plan a day, and go out thinking, | 0:20:57 | 0:21:01 | |
"I want to go and visit so-and-so at such-and-such a station," | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
or you'll have a conversation on the train with someone. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
They'll start off asking, what does the chaplain do? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
and then the personal stuff will come out. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
One of the local station staff the chaplains have helped is Albert. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
I had a bit of a problem in my personal life and Jeff, | 0:21:18 | 0:21:22 | |
the railway chaplain, he came round. He was a wonderful guy. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
A nice chat, we prayed. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
And, on top of all that, | 0:21:28 | 0:21:29 | |
he actually went down to where I was staying, | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
and loaded up his car with a large portion of my stuff, | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
and took it up to his own house and stored it there | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
until I got myself sorted out in my new place. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
It seems to me, they seem to be the glue that holds the station together. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:46 | |
Yes, because the glue is something you don't see | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
until you need it, when things start coming apart. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
Enjoy the rest of the day, anyway. Take care, bye-bye. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
Another member of the chaplaincy team based at St Pancras | 0:21:53 | 0:21:57 | |
is Byron Lewis. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
Byron, was it a calling for you, as well? | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
'My god was money, really, and I felt money was what bought | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
'really true happiness, and it didn't work out.' | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
I wasn't really good at business | 0:22:09 | 0:22:11 | |
and I got myself in debt, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:12 | |
and I got myself spiralling down into depression. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
One night I was just reflecting on my life, | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
I was feeling really down, and I really felt in need, | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
and I called out to the so-called man in the sky, | 0:22:22 | 0:22:25 | |
I know it's a bit impersonal, | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
but, yeah, I had a sense of peace | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
and that began my journey to God. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
And I found him in the Bible, | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
and I had a real sense that, yeah, this was the way, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
this is my destiny, and I was called to the London City Mission. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:45 | |
I'd been helping out in one of their local centres | 0:22:45 | 0:22:49 | |
and I think this... | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
God had mercy upon me. God had compassion upon me, | 0:22:52 | 0:22:55 | |
and I wanted to share this compassion | 0:22:55 | 0:22:59 | |
and this love, really, for people. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
'There was something that drew me to the railways, | 0:23:05 | 0:23:09 | |
'is that... It was an instant,' | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
I think it was in the BR days, and we never had tickets. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
The BR man said, | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
"Look, I'm going to let you off, | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
"but you've got to act like you've been fined." | 0:23:17 | 0:23:19 | |
So, me and my mate were let off from paying the ticket. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:24 | |
And, in a way, it's an expression of God's grace, really, to me, | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
cos I've said some awful things against God as a young man | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
and I want to share this grace with others, really. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
So, go on then, | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
what's the best thing about being a railway chaplain? | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
We've got this wonderful opportunity to go and visit so many people. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
We might be that little signpost pointing them towards God, | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
or faith, or answers. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
Dear Lord, we thank you for the opportunity of travel. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:36 | |

and strength on life's journey. | 0:30:04 | 0:30:06 | |
