A train token exchange is a physical token system used on single-track railways to prevent head-on collisions by ensuring only one train occupies a specific section of track at a time. A train must possess the token for that section of track before entering it, and the token is physically passed between the driver and a station official, often at a slow speed, to grant permission for the next train to enter the section in the opposite direction.

I always assumed that Harry Potter would do more with his life than work for the Hogwarts Express
What is he doing at 0:15 ?
Goathland? I was there once on a Friday and the next train was on Sunday!
Pure joy when it went “ding”!
