I think the reason why the railway companies and the tube management and overground moguls all seem to like you and have no worries inviting you on all sorts of jollies (I wish they'd invite me, but I can't produce such brilliant videos) is because A) you are enthusiastic B) because you know your (and their) subject and C) you have a very low bullsh1t quotient. They know you might point out a shortcoming or even a long one, but you won't give them a hard time about it, just the straight story and you always praise the people doing the work. Well done Geoff, there ought to be more like you.

As a Yank, my favorite time in the tube was then I was confused and was going the wrong way on the tube and asked this very lovely lady where I was going and she said the wrong way. So I asked her where should I go and she said the other way. Love your commentary and keep up the good work! Too bad New York can't get some of your people to tell them how to modernize their system!

The inconsistencies between the 125 year old tunnel and 1920s rings/lining is because they first built the tunnel around 1900 but in 1925 it was widened so the rings of the tunnel are from 1925 but the tunnel it self is 1900~

TfL has played a blinder, inviting down someone like Geoff to give the public an insider look at the work that has been going on. 1.) TfL don't have to pay anyone to create a video. 2.) The public will probably not trust that video anyway. 3.) Having an outsider like Geoff explain it in layman's terms what is happening is a lot more efficient than a TfL PR person. 4.) In Geoff we trust !!!

Another pub quiz fact is that the moving walkways can only be found at Northern line and Waterloo & City line stations. Projects like these are just as important as extensions and new rolling stock. Shows how we can change stations to deal with capacity issues make it a better experience and hopefully collect more revenue to fund additional projects, Camden Town and Holborn need capacity upgrades too.

My goodness, they haven’t hung about! Perhaps it’s because much of the work was escalated? 🤔Or should that be travellated…oh sorry, of course, I meant “Walkwayed”? 😅 Excellent to see a behind the scenes perspective and I could see how much fun you were having (I expect nothing less!). And I’m glad you managed to slip in a couple of ‘walk away from camera’ shots. Wouldn’t be the same without them! 🤓 I was surprised to see the shaft entirely filled in as I was half expecting you to pan up and show a huge vent shaft or something. But like you I had no idea about those areas beneath the platforms for utilities 🤯 It kind of makes sense I suppose as they must come from and go to somewhere, but it just shows you can go on these things for decades and still discover something entirely new that was surrounding you all the time! 🤗 I do have a few days off in mid-May so I am hoping I can squeeze in a quick visit when it opens so I get to see it all shiny and new. I wanted to see the old before it shut but life annoyingly just got in the way 🤷🏻‍♂️ Mad if the Betty Line opens up too, it will be double the fun! 😎 Thanks as ever mate 👍🍀🍻

It's really nice to see that the UK Government & TfL are investing a hell of lot of money in dramatically improving public transport in London, England. I currently live in the West Midlands county of England and have visited London many many times in the past & used the London Underground (AKA The Tube). And i think the London Underground system in London is fantastic. However i do think that it is a bit to expensive to use compared to other countries that have a Underground railway in there capital cities. But it is very good though. I really like the London Tube. Looking forward to seeing these new major improvements to the Tube next time I visit London for the day. Hopefully crossrail (Elizabeth Line will be open by then & I can use my TfL Oyster card with PAYG credit on it it with Oyster Daily price capping included. My favourite is the Jubilee Line that goes from Central London to Canary wharf under the river thames. Thanks for the update vlog from one of your fellow UK citizens from Birmingham, England.

Would have been cool if they'd put a glass floor over the former tracks and added some downlighting to make them a feature of the new concourse. Would have added a lot of character.

I can’t wait for the Bank branch to open up again. It’s a lot easier getting to my office in Liverpool Street. At the moment I’m travelling though at Waterloo to get the Waterloo and City line to get to Bank. To top it off that long long walk way to get to the Central line.
