London King's Cross to Newark Northgate | REAL TIME CAB RIDE

[@josephkarl2061]

Thank you for not having music over the journey, and just the sounds of the train. There are plenty of KZbinrs like Don Coffey who do this and get substantial interest, so I sincerely hope their success bleeds off a little into your channel 😃👍👍

[@LondonNorthEasternRailway]

Thank you

[@jonhigginson4096]

What Joseph said…couldn’t agree more.

[@timtim4603]

Love these videos thanks

[@suchcone]

I love that you included the announcements, and sounds from the ride rather than put music over the whole thing. The facts are great too. This is so relaxing!

Hej! 🇸🇪

[@markholdstock6705]

Very good. Great to have a cab ride without music and real sound. More please. 😊

[@Grid56]

Wow, I haven't visited the Cross for a while. I can't believe all the new buildings. The new track layout looks much simpler. Best view in the house. It should be piped into screens down the train for enthusiastic customers.

[@ArlesProductions]

Even though I don’t live in the uk let alone Europe it’s amazing seeing a real time trip on the railway and more interesting than the goods trains we see here in Canada

[@KermMartian]

Amazing work on the video, and I learned a few things that Train Simulator doesn't teach. Please keep them coming!

Thank you

[@CommodoreRayne.IMP.C-1824]

Yeah as did I. Dovetail should really update this route with Azumas and the 3rd Gasworks tunnel etc etc

A very interesting video, thanks. Great respect to the drivers on these routes - the level of concentration needed so as to note every signal flashing by must be considerable.

Really enjoyed the video along with all the “Did you know” information. Only critique is an occasional swipe with the wiper/washer would be appreciated to clear the windshield.

Thanks for an interesting video. Things have changed a bit since I last travelled this route (Class 55's were "the new kids on the block" then.)

For fans of this, have a look at don coffey's channel here on KZbin. He does cab rides with facts scattered through. No telemetry though. There are also plenty of other cab rides from the UK and other countries, best search term is: train cab ride

Amazing touch adding in announcements as well.

Its so interesting the difference in modes of transport, in Europe they rely heavily on high speed rail while in the US we have the interstate highway system and passenger rail travel is largely restricted to heavy urban centers/corridors.

[@mikehodder7833]

Excellent video, shame the windscreen wasn't cleaned though. Can someone please clarify the flashing green lights on a section after the stop at Peterborough. As far as I was aware, this went back to the days when you were permitted to travel at 140mph on certain sections of the route. As the maximum line speed is now 125mph, why are they flashing?

[@thomasdoestrains]

Can you do an intercity 225 cab ride?

[@albion1012]

Nice video - I don't understand why the trains are restricted to 125 mph when they are capable of 140 mph?

[@jmckenzie962]

Based on the stopping pattern of Peterborough then Newark, this train must've been one of the xx:30 ones to Edinburgh

[@splidge2000]

I agree. The "train announcements" were I guess dubbed on afterwards, as this train clearly did not terminate at Newark.

[@javierguidounicaud6621]

It was a nice and interesting cab ride in a day with the sky well cloudy. Thank you for this video and for all your comments given in this video.

Great video. Did I blink, or did you not show where the line to Royston and Cambridge diverges just after Hitchin?

[@raysmith114]

Excellent. I like the real time speed read out. Am I rright in sayng I didn't see any/many speed boards trackside on some of the 4-track sections? I won't mention the dirty screen since others have - oops, I have mentioned it! More please. [Just seen in the notes that the speed isn't real time but an approximation. Disappointing]

[@unearthedgwyny]

Great memories as I used to live in Welwyn Garden City and used the train to Kings X lots

It be interesting to see how often does the train 🚂 run at its maximum speed of 125 mph during the journey

I loved this route up to Stevenage (as I use to visit my brother who use to live there) shame journey only lasted less than 20 mins

[@rwm2986]

Thanks LNER. I enjoy 'travelling' along a line that I was very familiar with pre-electrification, pre-Hitchin flyover, and most definitely pre-Werrington dive-under. Was that GWR rolling stock on the left just North of Finsbury Park?

[@tomjames2765]

This is very cool :-) Well done LNER and thank you Out of interest, what are the pings in the cab?

[@AndreiTupolev]

That's the AWS (Automatic Warning System) telling the driver that the next signal is green. Caution signals give a 'boop'

[@Exparcelman]

Great to see a realtime decent quality video of this. Really enjoyed watching. 😊

[@Exparcelman]

I’d love to see some information on the screen about some of the landmarks passed too.

[@tomthetrain628]

Brilliant video. Was the braking after Finsbury Park a running brake test?

[@borderstrains7985]

Yeah

[@herschell64]

Great to even hear the on board announcements voiced by Justine Harris, I'm just curious how she recorded them, i.e. did she record the first part then separately record the destinations for use on the relevant train

[@paulw.woodring7304]

I'm surprised the UK allows level crossings on high-speed lines. The U. S. Federal Railroad Administration requires grade separation for any line with a maximum allowable speed of 110 mph or more.

[@LondonNorthEasternRailway]

New level crossings aren’t permitted and the number is gradually reducing across the network but this line dates back to the Great Northern Railway of 1850! Thanks for watching 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@manomaylr]

Was going to travel with you tomorrow and do this in real life. Unfortunately plans changed. Next time though!

[@NickBadley]

Wow, this is awesome!

[@wickedboar]

Great journey love it

[@rayjohn8689]

Great video.....but...a clean windscreen would have improved it no end 😉

[@davidoswald9253]

Question? At 41.17mins, the old signal box at the Holme crossing and the loop prior to it seem to be on the wrong side or the train was on the up line towards Huntingdon and London?

[@albion1012]

How can they have level crossings on a high-speed line like this?

[@neilonaniet]

Sounds like the driver had forgotten to do the brake reset during cab set-up, hence why the alarm sounded at 0:17 when they moved the master switch to forward 🙂 Putting the brake into emergency and back again will fix the problem,

[@peterryan917]

I was glad to learn that LNER listened and have started making videos with sound. But what kind of sound? When I heard the 'Dreadful LNER Muzak' my heart sank.But happily it was only for a few seconds in the intro. Good video

[@charlesmcnicol]

A very interesting and worthwhile enterprise in my view, especially showing actual speeds. I noticed that most of the signals on the stretch north from Peterborough towards Stoke Tunnel seemed to be showing a flashing Green aspect. What does this signify please?

[@richardfurness7556]

From Wikipedia: flashing green aspects are employed on the East Coast Main Line north of Peterborough. They were installed for 140 mph (225 km/h) running in connection with the testing of the new InterCity 225 electric trains, with a steady green limiting test trains to the normal speed limit of 125 mph (200 km/h). They no longer have official meaning, but remain in place and there are a couple of locations where the presence or absence of flashing provides useful information to drivers.

[@johnackerley6553]

A great video but there were a couple of things that would have made it better. The "Did you know" pop ups could be added a little earlier so we could read and then see what was mentioned. Also, the camera could be located away from the dirtiest part of the windscreen. Otherwise it was very enjoyable.

[@CM_Railways]

could you redo Newcastle to Edinburgh with sound?? 😊
