Firm believer that 1960s-1980s were the panicle of traction motor sounds after that they got too quiet and too complicated

Id fly to the UK from the NZ to just hear these in person honestly as we had the same motor traction sounds on the ganz-mavag EMUs here from the 1980s (im 26 now) but they phased them out 2010+ and when I listened to this sound or videos of the ganz-mavag it would unlock core memories of my dad taking me on the trains as a kid. I work in I.T now but honestly been considering lately looking into becoming a train driver instead as I spend all my time in train sims

“This train is called brain train” what?

That was excellent.

I was the epileptic paint store worker that shook your colours up, I demand some royalties

£25 and 20 Benson & hedges?

🤣🤣🤣

Power to the people🤜

I think it's better to keep it secret. Or relatively secret. I haven't even been there yet but I BELIEVE it IS the true start of The Thames and is a place of occult sacred power,the good sort. Keep people in lycra doing fund raising sports challenges away,the muddy puddle will do for them.

Looks like the driver doesn't just drive old buses at work, as it looks from his car key he is the owner of a circa 2000-2005 ish Ford .

I remember driving down from Cheltenham when you were in that flat. Would have been summer 2002? This has strong vibes of Alan Partridge Places of My Life to it. I remember the bathroom had no window...or indeed a light on that particular day. "I particularly love the prefabricated concrete platform". Niche.

RML 2344 was delivered new as a Country Area bus in dark green in late 1965.

I bet you were in your element! I rode on open top RM 644 on the T15 route. It was very enjoyable.

Brilliant video, I love these buses, they were designed for London transport requirements, the others are off the peg buses, could watch and ride on these all day

Did you get it's ID? RML xxxx?

Is there a meandering oxbow lake for the key text analysis sheet?

Beautiful England.

Off the Richter. Very Heath Robinson. I quite like the mug. If that machine woke me up with that noise, it would be going straight out the window, Kelly's-geography-folder style.

That's not Yorkshire Tea... What are you playing at???? 😂

Dankpods, BigClive and Ashens mixed

The reason I upgraded to the 6610i was the ability to have more than 10 texts stored, a rubbish camera and polyphonic ring tones. Seemed a big deal back in 2004.

"Never bothered about Snake" !!!!

Gorgeous area!

Excellent, as always. 🎉

good landing for a crosswind

Ar yes Aberteifi in the background as well! Nice video of a nice part of the world

We went within 2 miles of this in 2013. We were staying in Parrog at Newport beach.

Thanks Tim. Excellent footage. Your 1080 pics looks better than my 4k!

God he skies look moody over the mountains/ We just got back and were lucky with the weather. Great video

Hi

Great video! It's actually G-JZHU :)

Some years ago, I was told the source was at Seven Springs. Near the pub.

I was lucky to be a guest in Paul and Rebecca Whitewick's new video, as I located two springs further upstream from Seven Springs, adding to the Thames source dispute.

Some lovely drone footage.

I bet Putin has something to do with this.

Presumably there is a ground water supply that rises with sufficient rain?

5.03 "official source of the River Thames" six times now but no attempt to explain what is official about it. - goodbye

Passed Ashton Keynes yesterday, with the rain shes flowing well after so many months.

Why can u hear the sound of the Class 455 Southern Train Wheels slip?

How about Toto Africa?

Congratulations on making a video of the Thames and not feeling compelled to show the Gherkin or Shard every 7 seconds.

6:15 Minor correction - it’s not the A345 it’s the A435. I’m not trying to be clever I just thought it might help if someone want sto check out the area on google maps 😊 Thank you for a great video, Tim ❤️

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

My school geography lessons told me that the source of a river was the source at the furthest point of flow from its estuary. On that basis, and given that its a permanent source Seven Springs wins and the Thames is longest. Wonder what was behind nominating the other one, as it doesn't seem to have much going for it.

Beautiful video.

The greatest traction of them all. Nothing better than an EE507 with line switches

The source of river Thames is controversial and how come a dry area could be it's source.

This is probably the only example of a class of train which has had its traction converted from DC to AC and retaining its lovely motor sounds. The post-CLIP 1992 London Underground stock sound awful as they inherit the screechy motors of the S-stock.

thank you. Seven Springs is *CLEARLY* the origin of the Thames. Councils and Governments don't know the damage they do, with their *PETTY CIVIC DISPUTES!* Seven Springs flows *ALL YEAR LONG.* Seven Springs begins *TEN MILES+ BEFORE THE INTERMITTENT TRIBUTARY, THAT IS CURRENTLY NAMED AS THE "SOURCE"* Thank you. The *TRUTH* you explain simply and clearly above, is the truth *WE SHOULD ALL HAVE BEEN TAUGHT AT NURSERY OR SCHOOL.* Simple straightforward facts and geology. *Not obscure government protocol and local council sniping..!!* At 50 years old, I finally know the source of the Thames.
