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!

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

[@colinsippitt2265]

Very good , Would be better in 4k with a clean windscreen

[@kevjaybee3234]

I agree , but It wouldn’t stay clean for long doing 120 through the country side

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.

Exactly my thoughts all the way through the trip.👍

That was excellent. In the style of Ben Elias or Don Coffey.

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

[@chrisbaker8014]

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

[@TrainsAtTrimley-eastSuffolk]

Great video certainly nice to see from the drivers perspective. Would love to see a view from your, class 91 and mk4 set in heritage intercity livery. Hopefully in a few years will be me in the drivers seat driving for my local area in East Suffolk 👍

[@georgeronn1263]

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.

[@expection_]

Absolutely amazing. As I`m a railway lover it's a dream to be a part of your professional team. But it`s imposible, because i`m not from the UK... Thanks for the video.

[@aetch77]

This is a nit pick. 14:18 Up/Down - I am of the understanding this means going towards or away from the population centres, not specifically north/south. It also makes no sense that Up would always mean South, there's also east/west to consider, Up/Down is still used there. Granted, this whole Up/Down thing is confusing.

[@russellgreen3375]

It's always up to London, down away from it. If the original company that built a specific line didn't go to London then its up to the location of their headquarters

[@camotech1314]

This is cool, more like this please!! Great sounds to fall asleep to. 😊

[@qwerty69600]

2x speed for 250mph trains in the UK. Ayo fk the system!

[@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 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@ryanspooner092]

Literally everyone else says "Up North" and "Down South", why is it the complete opposite with train lines?

[@CrazyInWeston]

It is 'Down' the line from London. North/South has no bearing. Up lines go towards major locations, such as London.

[@Oggybasher]

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 the speed, I'd also like to see limit too. I miss that from other videos. Also, clean the window please 🤣

[@peterberry5442]

My advice to you all is not to go back to The Cross.......it will make you cry! But imagine the Pacifics at full regulator hammering through both long tunnels, otherwise they will not make it up Holloway Bank!

[@paulcaswell2813]

There's a story of an L1 slipping to a standstill on that bank whilst hauling the (luckily empty) Royal Train!

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.

For the benefit of your foreign viewers, a photo/video of the locomotive and train would add context and an immersive element. Otherwise an enjoyable journey. Thanks for the upload.

Great information: but I must have missed the announcement that Peterborough has one of the three greatest Romanesque (Norman) cathedrals in England: the other two being Ely and Durham.

[@dutchy777]

Love the speed caption, I wish the others would do that

[@MatthewCantrill-w3b]

I play Train Sim, and id love to know: How would you typically accelerate from the platform in the Azuma? E.g Notch 1 till 5mph, 2 till 20mph etc etc. What is standard procedure?

[@TheMudfinger]

Inverness in good weather would be my top one to see if doing more in future.

[@AFCManUk]

As a child living in Aylesbury, North West of London, I used to get told off whenever we went there for saying "We're going up to London," instead of down. Since finding out that all railway lines going towards London are designated as 'UP' lines, I feel somewhat vindicated :D

[@mickkostiw589]

Hello again, Trams are they a United Kingdom invention as well, where and when did they come from, isn't their forward and reverse motion identical to the Electric Trains you guys are running in your videos today, no one seems to write or say anything about them, they just seem to just be, because during still being little in the early 50's, the government settled us in La Perouse Botany Bay in Sydney, and a Tram used to go from La Perouse to Central Station for a penny and Steam Trains were still running here and there as well, so where did the Trams come from, please if you know. Mick

[@mickkostiw589]

Good morning, seems like you guys aren't into Trams, no one is, but when did Trains become to run on electricity from Steam, what year was that. Mick

[@Jord470]

bring back the hst's

[@farrelps96]

Why did the train start slowing down miles before peterborough even when theres still greenlight showing

[@DavidHulley-i6z]

Yes, I wondered that too. There is a limit of 105 mph at Holm Fen and 100 mph after Stilton Fen until Fletton, but on this occasion the train speed just bled off lower and lower and at Fletton Junction it was only travelling at around 45 mph despite it being a 70 mph crossover to the DS, which is the usual path for LNER trains stopping at PBO

[@mikeryan959]

I know that OHLE “moves” from side to side to even the wear on pantograph. Is there any evid3nce of a hypnotic effect on drivers? I know they concentrate more carefully than me (and have to respond to alarms) but I was beginning to drop off.

[@musicforaarre]

I'm currently studying the railways of Southern London, but I would say that this main line is better than the Brighton Main Line. The south side still has those pesky third rails, which lose voltage in heavy snow, or even get shorted out as they did in the Elevated Lines of New York City during very heavy snow storms. Also, the 'Orange Army' of maintenance crew must avoid being electrocuted by the third rail when walking about during maintenance. Overhead Kilowatt wires trump in terms of function, but of course they don't look as beautiful to average folk. Aarre Peltomaa

[@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?

[@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?

[@robinhillyard6187]

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

[@grahamandrew907]

Deltic please!!!

[@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,
