London Underground 150th Anniversary - 13th January 2013

A video from 13th January 2013 which I filmed at Paddington and Great Portland Street during the occasion of the 150th Anniversary of the opening of the first London Underground Line.
Special trains were operated to commemorate the event with Metropolitan Electric Loco No. 12 'Sarah Siddons' (built 1922) and 0-4-4T 'E' Class steam loco Metropolitan No.1 (built 1898) hauling special passenger trains in a 'top n tail' formation.
Thanks for watching and please feel free to comment

Specially i loved the Electric locomotive gaining current from the third rail. And the steam loco was a spectacular sight it was beautiful to see Steam in Underground, & specially i loved the old victorian style wooden coaches of the first London underground Metro system or Tube Rail.😊😊😊😊 Nice video done Allan5919 Sir❤❤❤.
