Fantastic. I wondered if this were old when I saw the Thorp Marsh Power Station (now demolished). But you got a few place names wrong. It isn't "Barlby Bridge". It's Balby Bridge". Just before you come into Doncaster. Also the level crossing you call Rostholm Level Crossing I always used to know as Arksey Level Crossing.... but on the map it is Rostholm. And I haven't been in the UK now for 33 years anyway.

I really enjoy watching this. Thank you Ian. Can I make 3 suggestions; two presentational and one educational/practical. 1) It would be most helpful if the speed at which the train is moving could be shown. It needn't be intrusive; just in a corner, in mph. 2) In another corner can we see a map [showing the journey and where-abouts on the map the train is at any given moment. 3) And perhaps most important; can these (train drivers') views not be shown in schools to deter children - and adults! - not to fool around or take chances, for example at level crossings. I had no idea that trains move so fast. The passengers' view doesn't seem as though the train is moving very fast. But, blimey; I found myself rocking from side to side with the motion of the train as it turned bends. MORE, PLEASE!!

Thank you for your comments. Your suggestions have merit, unfortunately this is not my video, it belongs to AWL57, all I did was put the captions on, which took a while I must admit. The speed cannot be displayed as I don't know what it was, except maybe Stevenage, as I know they are really moving through there, so it would be near if not 125mph. A map showing the route alongside the video, it would take a lot of work and I don't think my editing suite would be up to it, you would need something like Adobe, which is way expensive. As far a schools are concerned, that would be up to the schools to take action if they had a problem with railway infringements. Glad you enjoyed the video thanks.

I think the beep-beep-beep is to ensure drivers are still awake. It has to be recognized within a certain timeframe or the train will stop

@ICB72 Ай бұрын

@@fionakierton1231 That is true, they have another beep, during travel to make sure the driver is awake, which has to be cancelled within 20 seconds I think or the train will stop
