Very interesting. Especially the part about the daughter who thinks she's too good for her mother. Reminds me of someone I know.

[@pse888]

Great narration. Just wonderful. Who is the narrator please?

[@johnbruce2868]

Honestly! Where do you find these extraordinary accounts? Quite the best introduction to 19th. century social history you can find on the internet, in literature or in any other media. Complete with extraordinary photographs and lithographs, that make the Victorian origins of the archetypal British meme, 'Mind the platform', immediately apparent.

A change of pace in this one. Glad you liked it!

I always travel first class ...but not in this country as over here, I cannot even afford to go Third.

Loved this one! I was lucky to catch the Nickel Plate Road in the 1960's before they went out of service. They resembled these pictures inside, with high back tufted benches and huge windows. It was the run between Chicago and I forget what other city 🌿

The swell at the window looks like Eric Idle's ancestor!

[@Romyyy9]

Cheers!

Really nice and what a great voice to narrate. It struck Me, with the tale of the elderly man with wrinkles, that for many, a journey by train was brand new . What changes the elderly must have seen up too, and after, train travel.

Thank you for your wonderful cultural documentary channel sir . I gathered main information about topics you mentioned briefly here it’s first rail roads in Britain predated victorian era . In the 18 th century they were in coal mines where horses pulled mine carts of wooden tracks from pits to factories. In 1807 first passenger service was opened. There are too famous victorian train crash staple hurst rail killed ten people, injured 400 . Railways in victorian era seemed to cause anxiety and concern about madness because of noise and unpredictable nature of railways. First railway is Stockton , darlington railway. In the England first railway in the world was opened operate freight and passenger service with steam traction. First victorian train called Wynm in 1840. First successful steam railway was Liverpool and Manchester railway ( 1830). First train was built in England by Richard trevithick , British engineer in Cornwall. Interesting facts about victorian railway 3 sterling pound was spent on building railway from 1845 to 1900. In 1870 , 423 milion passenger travelled on 16, 000 miles of track by end of queen Victoria reign over 1100 million passengers were using trains . By the time south eastern railway opened railway as far as Dover in 1844 , 2210 miles of line had been opened, making travel around country easier more comfortable and less expensive. Railway allowed people to travel , further , more quickly. Victorian railway now knowns as vic rail was divided into two in 1983 . Thank you for giving us chance to read and learn new information , improve our English as well.

05:41 Such an iconic image... Old and new, a high castle and a mesh of intersecting rail tracks, complete with a locomotive and a passenger train. Victorian Britain was changing the world.

[@firecracker187]

Always my fav of the day ♡

[@johnjephcote7636]

The number of brown paper parcels. packages, brollies, raincoats etc carried in those days! I used to be a railway porter (not a Railman) and I only helped people with just one suitcase (for which I had a good 'weasel' (tip) of 2/6d.

[@shereesmazik5030]

This video is so alive and textbooks are so dead . The contemporary descriptions make the difference. Generalizations are blended to bland .

[@goodoldbubba6620]

What about Moriarty?

[@candimcirish]

Who?

[@jasoncoker1625]

[@tubesurfing]

An honest pipe!

[@kieranmclaughlin8920]

Were there any locomotives in say... Glasgow, perhaps? Where they built the bloody things. That goes for ships, also. Not Sunderland or elsewhere. Research it, thanks.
