Inverness to Edinburgh with train driver commentary | In the Driver's Seat

[@icextransport8490]

LNER should do the Inverness to Edinburgh section again but in winter when it's full of snow I think

[@JangoFett220]

Thing is the Inverness service leaves from Inverness just before 8 in the morning as well so it would be dark for the first part of the route, however watching the sun come up as it heads along the line would be a sight to behold

[@johnlown5988]

Very interesting...love the interesting factoids about each place

[@samstravelvlogsinthenorthe9818]

I have really enjoyed in the drivers seat videos, nice one LNER

[@juvingeo2529]

These videos are truly stunning ......... I'm a big fan of these videos .......... continue making these videos LNER, there is a small room for improvement .......... the commentary is not clearly heard .......... it can be made more clear ............ rest is so awesome .......... hats off to the team

[@cjshardcorepunkmusicvault8474]

Very nicely done, BUT, who edited the video? The music is insanely loud given the voiceover. Seemed slightly amateurish.

[@thomasrobinson8336]

Great video and Great Narratation. Excellant

[@vicsams4431]

I have ridden this entire journey with the driver in the cab. It is a superb railway.

[@luath5579]

Great film. My great great uncle (William Roberts, Engineer in Chief of the Highland Railway) was the deputy Chief Engineer for the Nairn Viaduct and also responsible for doubling some sections of the line between Stanley Junction and Inverness. He designed the stations at Aviemore (and at Boat of Garten and the Aviemore loco shed, both on the Strathspey Steam Railway), at Kingussie and Newtonmore (demolished) and the Down platform waiting room at Pitlochry.

SOUND LEVELS ! music is SO loud and the commentary is so low , Balance it out , spoils a great video

[@jackstransportvideos3201]

Nice one LNER

[@simonhinsley8588]

Great piece of PR LNER!

[@Skalekul]

Would be interesting to see the full real time version!

[@ZL54JK8]

Indeed those lines were covered back in the days of VCR tapes. As I recall, Paul Coia and Sally Magnusson did the commentaries. I would think they are available still if you do a spot of searching.

[@aekirk3310]

is it not Dunblane where it switches over to overhead not Bridge of Allan ?- also pretty sure it was Dunblane on the video!

[@Andrewjg_89]

The LNER Class 800 Azuma are unlimited and can go anywhere as they like because they are Bi-mode including to Hull, Sunderland, Inverness, Perth, Aberdeen and Dundee. But the LNER Class 801 Azuma are limited because they can only operate on electrified lines including to Leeds, Skipton, Bradford Forester Square, York, Newcastle and Edinburgh Waverley. But they do have diesel engine but only used for emergencies only I think.

[@tonypaul3698]

Yes, you're correct, the 800's have 5 GU's, the 801's have one, which is only used in situations where there is a problem with the overhead power supply.

[@crmtrainspotting6882]

Nice one

[@johnhodson8439]

+1 to the comments on vs music sound. Music far too loud (if necessary at all), commentary too soft.

[@RBXTrains]

Music too loud, narration too quite ;c

[@anthonyholroyd5359]

I've been waiting for this one! What a gorgeous journey, huh? As traincrew who signs this route (though not for LNER), I was always told that Slochd is actually the 3rd highest on the UK national rail network - Corrour (on the west Highland line) being about 35ft higher. And for everyone who took higher / A level English and got sick of Shakespeare, I'll tell you I always remember Kingswood tunnel because of its proximity to Dunkeld and Birnam and "When Birnam wood does march to Dunsinaine" 🤣🤣

[@amtrakharry]

Again WOW!!! :):):)

[@weepair2]

God Awful music. Spoiled the whole video.

[@TraineePilotJess]

What is the song?

[@cteasdale1979]

Train stay on train on all from Inverness to Newcastle

[@redboth]

Nice video,couldnt be doing with that music though..

[@busesandtrainsinthecounty684]

London crew sign Inverness

[@QwertyScream]

What's the song?

[@transitcaptain]

5:27 electrification

[@Andrewjg_89]

Well electrification in the North of Scotland isn’t needed because the Class 800 are Bi-mode.

[@transitcaptain]

@@Andrewjg_89 Yes it is. The Class 385s! They run there.

[@Andrewjg_89]

@@transitcaptain Only as far as Dunblane.

[@transitcaptain]

@@Andrewjg_89 I want it to extend to Perth or Inverness

[@Andrewjg_89]

@@transitcaptain Possibly to Perth but not to Inverness. We just have to wait and see.

[@LondonNorthEasternRailway]

Class 800 trains are bi-mode, able to run on diesel or overhead electric power. ^AB

Nice video... but the terrible too LOUD and cheap synthetic crappy 'music' was constantly invading my ears. It was like a awful KZbin ad that cannot be skipped.
