London Kings Cross to York (Drivers View)

This video was uploaded some 7 years ago by AWL57. I have tried to contact AWL57, in relation to putting captions on it, but comments are disabled on the channel. As a sort of thank you, I created a little trade mark at the start. If AWL57 wants me to delete it, contact me on here

57.29 is Essendine, not the B1176 Careby.

1:17:28 - Color me surprised that a level junction was left to stand. Subtitles for Junctions / Divergences would have been a nice touch. I Still call this a brilliant video.

What do you leave out or put in, if you put too much in, it ends up with endless text on the screen, not to mention the time doing it, I am pleased you like it tho'

[@paulefc1971]

The amount of footpath crossings on the southern part of the LNE is shocking, especially having to cross 4 lines at that linespeed, the decision point must be absolutely mad

[@AdamWebb1982]

the video is pretty old now and some have been removed i believe.

[@Flange-lw9sp]

All need to go, as do all the level crossings. Don’t think many other countries like running high speed trains over crossings.

[@ICB72]

@@Flange-lw9sp Well, I have just been on a train from Kiel to Hamburg for 40 euros for 3 of us, they had quite a few level crossings on route.

[@user-yt9st4li5u]

just about to say this is an old video. i was part of the team which remodelled the track at kings cross.

[@ICB72]

That must have been an experience, I noticed they opened the other tunnel, which had been closed for some time.

[@user-yt9st4li5u]

@@ICB72 yes they did. it memory serves its slabtracked with a crossover inside it. looks beautiful. but yes was a good experience. small team, brought together for a common goal.

[@ICB72]

@@user-yt9st4li5u Well you did a great job, it really smoothed out a few problems.

[@jwslijm7278]

Great video, but as a driver of train one could get nuts by the noiselevel. Even while standing still it hears like AC is working 100 %.

[@ICB72]

Yes, it is noisy, but I suppose you get used to it, like working in a mill or engineering works

[@Afc1987]

Nice to see my football club in the video 🔥 the Arsenal

[@rogerroger5255]

A suitably grim location.

[@Afc1987]

😂😂😂😂 I bet you are a spurs fan 😂😂😂

[@Oskarjlee]

@@Afc1987 Arsenal is grim to be fair.

What's with calling them 'overbridges'? They're just bridges!!! Enjoyable journey though.

[@Njb2510]

Just opposite to an underbridge

[@leonperry123]

2hrs? Where my speed button. 2x selected. That's better, whoosh

[@ICB72]

Well that is all well and good, but real time is what most rail people like. LNER did a couple of videos speeded up and silent, they were not well received. They might be still on YT

[@OfficialRyanx]

Was this a 91?

[@ICB72]

I think so, he didn't date the video, but it was after electrification of the line.

[@OfficialRyanx]

@@ICB72 Wasn’t sure if it could’ve been 373, but I think they were well out of the equation by the time NXEC came along.

[@ICB72]

Sorry you meant the loco, I think it could have been a 91

[@stephenbennett1989]

This is the same video from 7 years ago by AWL 57

[@ICB72]

Yes, it is
