To give you a bit of info, I can name a few voices, they are: Celia Drummond, Phil Sayer, Ruth, Sarah, Mike, Boofay, Charlotte and Glynn. People wishing to post samples, they can (links only, Please!). For more info, Please visit: http://announcements.jsphotography.swlines.co.uk/http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=32471Thanks, Jim. |

Sarahs name is actually (apparently) Anne, and is a member of management at Atos Origin, the people who install her voice. And i'm glad you have found the announcement site at jsphotography, as I am one of the contributors, and am glad someone finds the information of use to them! Announcement recordings of mine can be found on my Freesound account at http://www.freesound.org/usersViewSingle.php?id=799700Louis |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

Hi, Louis94 - I've looked at your site and note that you're using a creative commons license that appears to be fairly specicific - a Creative Commons Sampling Plus 1.0 License, summariesd at http://creativecommons.org/licenses/sampling+/1.0/ . It states " You are free to ... sample, mash-up, or otherwise creatively transform this work for commercial or noncommercial purposes. ...[etc] Under the following conditions ... You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work)." But who actually is the Author / Licensor to whom we must attribute? At first glance I thought it would be yourself, but then thoughts of copyright came to my mind and I wondered if it is actually the company running the annoucement system, or the company who contracts Phil and all the other announcers. Or even Phil himself? |

What about Julie? (the voice on SN and SE units, and some LU lines)

Hmm.
There seems to have been an element of duplication here, 159james?
I've now merged the topic you started today with the one you started two days ago, with exactly the same original post.
Please: don't start duplicate topics on this forum.
Thanks,
Chris.

Or even Phil himself? Well techniquely it would be Phil/Celia, etc themselves, as they are the voices behind the speaker! But then i'd hope someone would be decent enough to endorse myself, as I have taken the time to record them! What about Julie? (the voice on SN and SE units, and some LU lines)
and LM▸ 350s! |

You want an endorsement for recording something that may be subject to copyright? Have you sought permission from Ditra, SEMA, or other possible copyright holders?

Oh for goodness sake, these are announcements that play everyday at loads of stations; I hardly think Phil will be having sleepless nights - OMG▸ someone might have my voice recording on a website!
There are far more pressing things to worry about!

 OFGS, OMG▸ , I merely asked the questions. I don't know the copyright situation, but I found it a bit rich of Louis94 hoping for endorsement, merely because he had recorded someone elses work.

Here's a teaser for you? Does anyone know the identity of the automated voice on FGW▸ Class 165 and 166's? There's only 4 automated announcements, all concerning changing trains at Reading and referring to Thames Trains at the end, so they're rarely used these days - and of course they're about to be replaced by a new system, but I'm sure some of you have heard them? Any ideas?
