Brighton to Croydon Part #1 - Voyager Class 220 (Train Simulator 2014)

[@sydmichel]

Raining in Brighton even under cover of the station roof!!

[@m0dernrailways]

For signals, a double yellow is never followed by a red aspect. Only single yellows are where you will find the next signal at red. It goes Green-Double Yellow-Yellow-Red or in some cases just Green-Yellow-Red and in some cases it's just Yellow-Red.

[@SonicbusterX2000]

You can go through the station at full speed when it says, "Go via...."

[@anthonybrowm2635]

B hbbbbvbbhkiiiiuijiijbnbk no jnn

[@Skelly19930]

SonicbusterX2000 not unless there’s a train crossing and signal on red u can’t

[@callumhaywood2384]

Dear spiral I love your train sim and truck sim

[@NCRailVideos]

There was once apon a time when Cross Country did do a Service between Brighton and Birmingham via Kensington Olympia

[@georgobrowno5857]

Shame they dont anymore.the closest they get is guilford-newcastle or bournemouth-manchester via birmingham new street

[@davidmackay9919]

Squirrel, I really agree with you how it's cool to see the scenery you recognise in real life. The Scottish line, Dundee To Edinburgh, I live in a small village on the other side of the Tay Bridge and it was cool to see the old bridge stumps which are actually there in real life

[@startrek_4792]

I SEE THAT YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT SIGNALS. THEY ARE AS FOLLOWING AS I KNOW THEY ARE NOT THAT EASY TO UNDERSTAND: Green: Clear to proceed Double Yellow: Red signal at 2 signals ahead Yellow: Red signal ahead. Reduce speed now Red: Stop. Line ahead not clear.

[@Tonymasscole]

Don,t like people tell you what to do you are great thanks for showing me this game

[@ThePerProductions]

It felt like you forgot about signalling? Green --> Double Yellow --> Yellow --> Red.

[@chargrilled8157]

Cross country voyagers inside are like plane I was on one last week

[@HSTWilliam]

Great vid!!! Its 4car for voyager and 5 car for super voyager

[@rpg481]

nice, waiting for part 2

[@Arjuns_offl]

Hi mr. Squirrel thank u for covering the london to brighton scenario pack i love that route i cant believe iam watching this 4 years later it still amazes me thank u once again

[@DJCRooK3D]

I travel on these trains very regularly and when my train hit somebody at Tile Hill station a month ago i was incredibly surprised at how quickly the train stopped actually!

[@JonnyRowntree]

100% brake = emergency brake. Around 80% is the standard full brake on any train within train simulator.

[@squirrel]

Except the Voyager VT221 I showed in the last video where 100% brake is perfectly acceptable and there is a separate emergency brake

[@julzedwards13]

+Squirrel gukt

[@Mrwells4Q]

Great video, easiest way to save you from having to brake as soon as the double yellow signal shows up, if you click the Alt button on your keyboard it will come up with 'to pass signal granted' which I have interpreted as the signal will change to green or stay yellow. If you click it and it says 'to pass signal denied' this means the signal will be red and you have to stop at it.. A little side note it normally goes: Double Yellow Single Yellow Red Keep up the brilliant work with your videos :) :) :)

[@thenortherntrainspotter7449]

Been on cross Country services many times from Manchester Piccadilly to Wolverhampton quite a nice service to take

[@andysim232]

Try the West coast mainline north add on. It's 103 miles and very very detailed. It's also the natural home of the Pendelino.

[@martw5291]

Being local to this line i can say its really well detailed. Very accurate. My local station is actually Three Bridges.

[@AgaSonia2002]

19:44 I GO ON THOSE TRAINS!

[@jakebahulse894]

When the AWS goes off, you only need to press the button when the AWS makes a low tone horrible beep/honk. Great Vid :)

[@Randallator966]

Go Via means your taking that route not stopping there

[@calumdonnell5959]

great vid cant wait for part two should be class

[@thatcomicguy2458]

Another brilliant video. Was just trying to watch you on twitch but I'm guessing it's having a twitchy moment. I'll settle for a couple of these vids. Keep it up buddy.

[@nrbbi]

I love this train!

[@DanCrew2001]

Squirrel. There is cruise control on the electric trains. So that means you can set a certain speed and not have to kept moving the throttle.

[@GadgBoy313]

The station at 11:38 is Hassocks

[@FabianEason]

This route no longer exists in reality - but when it did the train would come off the mainline at Clapham junction, and then go via Kensington olympia up to willesden, where it joins the WCML.

[@TheMGPGaming]

That paint scheme is on every Cross Country train down in Penzance, Cornwall :D

[@callumsahan3743]

Is crazy to see the likes if Coventry and Birmingham in games likes this.... I'm from Coventry and when i go to Birmingham i Get off at New Street.. Love it! Been watching since 2013 and still loving your videos paul

[@LondonAndSouthEastTransport]

Platform 7 for the 14:22 Cross Country service to East Croydon calling at:; Three Bridges, Gatwick Airport and East Croydon.

[@LondonAndSouthEastTransport]

This train is formed of 4 coaches.

[@fifagamingandtutorials6586]

11:40 its called hassocks i used to live in the village next to it

[@haighyorkiemini1]

more train simulator 2014 and more like this one plaese

[@CMDRBlueeagle66]

Hey Paul. Did you mention that you covered Tube Simulator? I couldn't find it on your list of videos. Cheers.

[@benlmelwood3255]

Thanks for the awesome vids

[@edboskey1107]

Hi there thanks for a pleasant trip to your first stop nicely driven. About your point on signalling history the British did invent it as a way to control trains and startsed with a man with a red flag. This then developed into a bar on a pole which could rotate on the pole to either show red for stop or be parrallel with the track for go. Finally this was replaced with the traditional upper and lower quadrant semaphore signals till the lights finally replaced them, but some semaphore signals can still be seen on British railways today. Hope this helps Ed

[@michaelchi7446]

Have you think of trying ship simulator?

[@MrJesson9]

Paul. I live right by Birmingham it's a great station

[@AlexLapinski]

Brilliant, part 2 next!

[@bobbarnes3018]

great video again paul

[@TeddyBearsWarm]

It was an american inventor William Robinson who created the block signalling which later would develop into modern systems we use now a days, also the block signalling is still in place on some routes

[@jayzo]

Best practice is to accelerate until the spped limit, then cut the throttle and let it coast, when it starts getting too low (like 20-30 under the limit), re-apply acceleration.

[@GamingRacerHD]

Great Route :)

[@itsonlyme458]

You mentioned about a double yellow signal and said the next one could possibly be a red. I think a double yellow signifies a single yellow on the next signal then a red. I could be wrong though. By the way, what graphics card have you got because I must say your graphics are great.

[@ArronSorrell83]

@Squirrel the paint job on the train is used up in midlands i got on it from derby ta Birmingham new street

[@madmik32510]

just seen this video. great content. also i live in burgess hill. keep up great work!

[@tonnyyyzzzplays7309]

10:10 woah! He’s rude!

[@Gamatech123]

Yes, it's raining, in Brighton, when the entire station is covered here...

[@ExzeRR]

Very nice video Squirrel, sound was a bit low but otherwise perfect...

[@neildrury18]

Ace carnt wair for part 2 :-) excited ti buy the game

[@CalMusicCovers]

Amazing videos! You should use the signal to guard/conductor :)

[@kevingraham3161]

Well done, your getting better :)

[@robfinlay2071]

hey paul, the CC just stands for the Cross Country livery, great vid as usual (:

[@themadmammal135]

i have been on a train with that colour scheme! :D

[@bsian03]

Signals: 3 light: Green -> Single yellow -> Red 4 light: Green -> Double Yellow -> Single Yellow -> Red This route mainly uses 4 light signalling

[@bsian03]

And if the train in front of you clears, it should go the other way, So basically what i'm saying is that D. Yellow clears to green, telling you the next 2 (for 3 light signalling) or 3 (4 light signalling) or more blocks are clear

[@courtneygardner385]

+Harry Nim he doesn't like nerds!

[@bsian03]

Diiid not know that

[@jaysonflesher8666]

I regularly see the cross country livery on trains here in Cornwall and now they have 5 car trains

[@SuperSuperAllons93]

Gatwick Airport is in West Sussex, a little further south of South London

[@Jokero_YT]

Part 2 is private? What?

[@MattJames2211]

Birmingham new street is not near the NEC, its in the centre of Birmingham. The NEC is at Birmingham International station.

[@Thej611]

19:45. Lol, i think it was actually a brit that invented the signaling system.

[@AIRZXNE]

Watching this again after 8yrs he should have at least 1 mil

[@BBD0984]

New Street station right next to the NEC is it? Lol

[@riantowl]

'I'll start again...this is where the wailways were invented'.

[@will14496]

You should do the Woodhead route

[@lycantknight9798]

nice one question have u tried steam engine yet or u plan todo so in future?

[@deanbean111]

The voyager brakes are actually better than most. It uses a Rheostatic brake. It's able to in goof conditions stop from 60 in full service in 300m ...

[@jacobmorley2036]

That train is Cross Country, only route that I know about that company is Penzance-Glasgow Central VIA Edinburgh

[@andrewgrainger739]

squirrel your vids are fab

[@northernsnapper]

Great Vids What video card you using?

[@aliciainnes7968]

this game is so good

[@strains3551]

14.05 that l b Wivelsfield, not Westfield!! Just beyond keymer junction where a line diverges to Lewes

[@bobbarnes3018]

will Paul overshot or not...................................will find out next time

[@couppa1]

Just so you know the signals on fast lines go from Green, Double Yellow means the next one is Single Yellow then red, that gives you more time to break lol

[@eddog6666]

From what I understand about rail light signals is double=stop 1 red= possible stop after the next signal. Double yellow is warning for red. however signal yellow has two meaning. Going too slow and holding the line or possible trouble. green= maintain speed. double green= route all clear

[@Bowesy198]

that paint scheme is on the east coast mainline

[@CR47Ycam]

And west

[@Thefantaman99]

11:55: it's Hassocks becuase I live there so yeah

[@williamleedham]

you didn't drive the southern train :(

[@samwatt7275]

Awesome video

[@hollisjames]

i love all your vids

[@taylorhaggarty909]

+ Squirrel I love trains I'm going in the cab of a cross country voyger soon! at 125mph I think. With my granddad

[@msussams]

Brighton to Birmingham was an old route offered by Cross Country (XC) It used to call via Gatwick and then through Kessington towards Birmingham... it was withdrawn.... There is no route for Train simulator that goes that distance (shame!) [would be a huge file though] so it would have to stop at East Croydon - before it will diverge off...

[@mancantgaming]

love your simulations can you do a Blackpool to Manchester route please thanks

[@SamOBrowne]

paul double yellow means next will be yellow which then means the next will be red.

[@carailphotography]

Birmingham New Street isn't next to the NEC. You're thinking of Birmingham International

[@shauna9401]

just wondering if theirs any welsh trains on their?

[@mercuryace6063]

Great video! Can you do some class 395 please?

[@gtafan2006]

railworks ajka dovetail games is apparently getting into other simulators... and those raildriver desktop controllers are a bit expensive but at least not as expensive as a racing wheel lol

[@devilsrfun]

Those trains are soo loud coming into a station

[@offmeback2723]

I think that cross country has the best English livery out of all the different companies

[@railwork2643]

no northern rail / arriva rail north

[@imtiredlmaooooooooo]

Do you think the just trains voyager 220 and 221 is worth it?

[@Cryptonomous]

this journey takes 35mins in real life!!!!!!

[@SearleD01]

You ordered the raildriver? you lucky guy :) Hope you do a twitch stream after you get it.

[@eivbjern]

Can you do a route in norway if there is a route in norway?

[@squirrel]

Don't think there is one. If you find one message me

[@martinthor4000]

+squirrel if i made a Norway map would you try it?

[@harrisonhworth7170]

Squirrel they can go up to 5 cars

[@RF-Ataraxia]

This + LoZST-Realm Overworld Soundtrack = Win

[@DaSpecialZak]

go via means go straight passed the station, doesn't mean stop at it

[@isaacstephens1]

In case you still don't know, the double yellow means the signal ahead is yellow and the signal ahead of that yellow is red. Hopefully that explains it, although i've probably phrased it horribly

[@koalaclaire69]

did you get the bossed version?

[@georgelines6655]

I like how controls of the voyger

[@devilghost6995]

Nice video love it

[@wagalama8999]

16:50 I think I've been to that station mmmm 🤔🤔🤔
