London Underground Piccadilly Line Exposed! Drivers Eye View Part 1 | Hammersmith to Cockfosters

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Hey everyone, I should’ve really put this comment when this video uploaded. Just for your information I was on an official cab ride which was all authorised by a TfL manager.

[@NextSound170]

I love how neat the stations look from Manor House, the tunnel equipment in a neat arrangement end of the platforms. Brilliant. And don’t need to explain yourself; you’re doing a good job and keep up the info. Although you missed the disused York Road after Caledonian Road, thats why its a long fast straight

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

@@NextSound170 Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@wirksworthsrailway]

A fascinating video.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Thanks, I really appreciate it

[@fuzzynutter8344]

I like how the on-board announcement for Earls Court still says ‘Alight for Earls Court Exhibition Centre’, even though it was demolished in 2015. Great video though, excellent quality!

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Thank you! It means a lot to me as I have put a lot of effort into making this video

[@Fedderchini]

@@AdventuresOnLondonTransportlove this bravo

[@TefiTheWaterGipsy]

I know it's gone, but they should have been made to keep the frontage of the Exhibition Centre. I'm glad it currently still says to alight at Earls Court for it, having been born and raised there, it's just not the same without it.

[@hangermanj1252]

Unfathomable quality here keep it up 👍🔥🥶😎

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Thanks 🔥

Amazing quality and editing, keep it up! 👍

Brilliant video cheers pal

How you were able to film this and they stopped Dale Charman a few months ago?

[@NarunPardeshi]

He filmed it before the ban on drivers having recording equipment in the cab was implemented.

[@naomisfunandtransportchann4376]

If my friend dale can't film the pic line why are you filming it! It doesn't seem to be fair on him not to film and you can

[@kriswarren2469]

​@@naomisfunandtransportchann4376 Did you even read the comments?

[@flightsimmer9809]

He isnt a member of staff has clearly asked for a cab ride and been giving one and recorded this he does say in the description this was recorded a while back

[@naomisfunandtransportchann4376]

@@flightsimmer9809 staff at cockfosters doesn't like passengers in the cabs! I should know as I asked a question and I got told off! It's not far on my friend Dale Charman! I stand by my friend

[@NapierNimbus]

Excellent

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Thank you!

[@markdonovan6810]

I for one preferred Dale charman travels, he was stopped from filming on the picc line so how you are doing this I'd like to know, bring back Dale we miss him so much.

[@Fedderchini]

If you LOOK IT SAYS EARLY DAYS OF 2024 !!!! Don’t be so nasty shows contempt

[@seniornomadsusa4224]

Dale Charman talked too much.

[@legitibitmaster3264]

What day was this filmed on if it’s recent then ion see why my pal shouldn’t be allowed anymore

[@chrish3472]

Odd that this one has been allowed even though it was filmed before the ban, i remember Dale saying that he had another one ready for YT but that would not be uploaded due to the ban, maybe that was his decision not to do that but it does seem a bit at odds with this new one here. Just for the record i don't agree with the decision made by TFL, i think they could have set some guidelines and come up with a workable set of rules regarding these videos so they did not compromise any safety rules regarding London Underground.

[@Ryanp194]

It’s only been up a day you silly sausage. Give it time and old TfL will try to bring it down

[@deanmrakpor8176]

Earl's Court was the station with several platforms.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Indeed, especially on the district platforms

[@annemaloney8273]

Good job. The bright headlights are fantastic. What time of day is this run? There are few passengers in the stations.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Glad you enjoyed it mate. This was filmed in the morning and on a weekend

[@progamingderash4566]

Great video. Why did tfl stop cab rides?

[@tango6nf477]

I love these drivers eye videos of the London lines but there is one thing I can never fathom and that is the graffiti caused by spray paint on walls and all sorts of other equipment. I cant understand how the "artists" can get to the lineside as to do so in many cases they must have either cross the live lines or at least walk along the sides which is obviously dangerous, one false step and goodbye. There appears to be little or nothing done to prevent it either, we get the same up here in the midlands but our vandals are no way as suicidal.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Indeed, the graffiti isn’t great and it’s very dangerous

[@jess.hawkins]

Overheight stock detector at 0:56! :D

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Didn’t mention that as the district can’t run on the eastbound or westbound fast lines anymore

[@smhorse]

I do enjoy seeing the traditional LU signalling in operation, although I see your signal simulator more or less gave up on numbering and correct indication once the train descended after Barons Court 😂 All this will disappear once CBTC is introduced, making the Underground much less interesting to travel on.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

@@smhorse It will, we have to enjoy while it lasts

[@Gary-1203]

Very enjoyable video. On the subject of a certain other person whose videos were stopped……end of the day, the vast majority put videos on YT with the intention of making money sooner or later, not to pretend they like you. They really are not bothered what you think, they ultimately just want the ££££. Anyone who says otherwise, i strongly suspect is lying. Some do it subtly, others go to the stupid extremes of having members and tiers of membership and stupid products to buy (yeah I am really going to buy a cup for £20 off some random YT creator!). So bottom line, that’s life, get on with it. Not exactly a third world issue is it. It’s all about ££££, that’s it.

[@danielpiggins8429]

Giving what happened to dale charmon recently I think posting this is disrespectful to say the least regardless of when filmed

[@nedseagoon5101]

Disrespectful how? This bloke doesn’t owe Dale, or anyone else anything! He’s doing his thing, Dale has been stopped doing his. That’s life. I knew Dale wouldn’t last long & I doubt this will either. Just enjoy it while you can, or don’t. Simple. ‘Disrespectful’ is a very strange word to use in this instance.

[@Fedderchini]

OH GROW UP’ disrespectful’ 💤💤💤💤

[@Firefly414]

The Underground should be ideally Automated. Huge cost savings,Increased reliability,24 hour 7 day a week service and even increased frequency. Tl

[@memediatek]

​@@Firefly414why you posting that here, but also most of the tube is automated already, with the driver being there for safety. Think how often people get trapped in the doors!

[@Firefly414]

@@memediatek you don't get any of the advantages under ATC, the underground needs to be fully automated to see the benefits such as 24 hour service,increased reliability,frequency

[@rickdeckard4213]

Your signal and speed icons on the left of your video are far too big and off-putting, please make them smaller for more comfortable viewing. Thanks.

[@AdventuresOnLondonTransport]

Thanks for the feedback, will take on board this when making part 2
