Haymarket (Edinburgh) to Haymarket (Tyne & Wear Metro)

[@SimulationGuyOfficial]

for another one involving the Metro, you could do Monument (Tyne and Wear) to Monument (London Underground)

[@AndyTrainRock]

Or monument (tyne and wear) to Monumentale (Milan Metro) Via Monument (London Underground) + Plane or Interrail

[@dude90914]

That would be a good one.

[@pasqualbarczyk1925]

Pointless Journey Idea: Birmingham New Street to Moor Street Point to Point Idea: University (Birmingham) to University (Tyne & Wear)

[@andyt2510]

A few stops down the Cross City line and you can have Northfield (Birmingham) to Northfields (London Underground)

[@richardhuss]

This can in fact be done as a Point to Point to Point: University (Birmingham) to University (Tyne & Wear Metro) to University (Northern Ireland Railways). (Are there any other cases in the UK of three stations with the same name?)

[@drearyplane8259]

don't forget University on the Supertram (or do, since it's only a tram stop)

[@harrierjames7727]

​@@drearyplane8259university of Nottingham too on the NET??

[@richardhuss]

@@drearyplane8259 Good point, though isn't it called "University of Sheffield" rather than just "University"?

[@katrinabryce]

Temple to Temple involved a Paris Metro station, and an Underground station, so this wasn't the first.

[@billymcmedic4221]

Train probably stops at Morpeth because they have to slow down for the Morpeth curve anyway so it doesn’t really hurt them as much to stop there as it would say at Northallerton which they’d be able to blast through at 100mph+, also the line between Morpeth and Newcastle sees an hourly Northern service that continues on to Carlisle which would hold up trains behind it, so probably helps to stop and create some space to prevent the lumo from riding yellows and reds down to Newcastle

[@mrvwbug4423]

Kew Gardens (London) to Kew Gardens (New York) haha. Though I think Geoff Marshall has already done that one. I also don't think railcards work on British Airways hehe. Though in theory it could be quicker than some of the intra-UK point to points, London Kew Gardens is like a 15min uber ride from Heathrow, 6 hours for westbound flight to JFK, 15min on the JFK AirTrain to Jamaica station and New York Kew Gardens is like a 10min trip on LIRR from Jamaica station.

[@lopathetic2979]

Nick, thank you for these videos. I've never even thought about going and getting trains to random places. Gonna start soon. When I have the money.

[@tommarshall1660]

Nice to see the " dynamic duo" back on there own, bouncing of each other like Batman and Robin. Sort out between yourselves who is who.... Glad you enjoyed yourselves up north, well done, another Point to point completed.

[@dude90914]

Yay! Haymarket metro! my home rapid transit network!

[@paulharvey9149]

Well..... as it happens, Nick, there is a Berwick in East Sussex, as well that one in Northumberland....

[@j.mcallister6641]

And don't forget North Berwick in Scotland too

[@thetrainspotter43]

Another great video, it's interesting to hear that the ScotRail reliability is so high (at least in your case)! Well done!

[@NameReveal-yy7qb]

Lumo calls at Morpeth cause open access operators need to serve a station franchise operators dont serve

[@nathanw9770]

That doesn't make sense because all operators going through Morpeth stop there at least sometimes. Same with Stevenage except Grand Central.

[@CrazyEditorEll]

@@nathanw9770 Yeah but not much anyways, few trains a day

[@simonsv9449]

But Grand Central and Hull Trains stop at Doncaster and Grand Central Stops at York? Also every single station Lumo serves is also served by LNER. This doesn’t make sense.

[@gibbo9089]

Like an old married couple!

[@lilithhiddenvillain5086]

If youre looking for ideas for similar names: Cottingley and Knottingley, which I believe both go from the same platform in Leeds too.

[@simonsv9449]

7:32 Searced on the internet about this one and the reason is this: One of the conditions for open-access operators to be allowed to operate is that they are supposed to create new demand, not take passengers from already existing operators. Morpeth was poorly served by Virgin Trains East Coast at the time (Still only has 7 LNER trains per day, one of their least served stations on the East Coast Main Line). By having a stop at Morpeth, Lumo was planning to open up a new market in Northumberland which was currently underserved. Thats also the reason they stop at Stevenage. LNER services from there don’t go as far as Newcastle and Edinburgh, they terminate in the Leeds Area, York or Lincoln. Lumo aims to create new demand in the area.

[@LemoncloudGT]

Think they stop at Morpeth so they have somewhere that LNER don’t stop proberly due to them using the same line

[@callumgreen9317]

Can't be that Lner call at Morpeth multiple times a day

[@andywillis2650]

Great video guys, and glad you enjoyed Scotrail :)

[@jacobporrett]

Never done the Newcastle metro myself nor Lumo or ScotRail for that matter. Looks like you both had fun.

[@colin8958]

The stop at Morpeth is also an attempt to divert from people flying. Newcastle airport is only 12 miles from Morpeth for locals who know the back roads, as compared to 7.5 miles from Newcastle Central.

[@Nooticus]

Another video with the cutest couple on KZbin :) amazing work

[@TheGregcellent]

As someone who's been spamming Chichester to Chichester (Tyne and Wear Metro) for weeks, we're nearly there!

[@MiddayDolomite]

If you're back in Scotland, I have a suggestion to visit the following similarly-named Glasgow stations, which are all within a stone's throw of each other: • Pollokshaws East • Pollokshaws West • Pollokshields East • Pollokshields West

[@ReubenAshwell]

Brilliant video Nick, a reading light on the train sounds cool. :)

[@improperrunner]

Awesome video. You should do Queen Street in Glasgow to Queen Street in Cardiff :)

[@ADAMEDWARDS17]

Wallsend on the metro is worth a visit for the only bilingual in Latin station in the UK (as far as I know!).

[@duncanrathbone2658]

You are such a beautiful couple. Keep up the great work.

[@From_Keyboard_to_Journey]

Another great video Nick and Natt

[@mildertduck]

I mean, while you're on the metro... there's St James (at St James Park) to St James Park via St James's Park...

[@mudchute4dlr]

ive suggested this a lot but a pointless journey could be london kings cross > london st pancras, except you must start and end at high level and you are banned from thameslink trains (if you werent it would be really easy, just change at finsbury park from thameslink to another thameslink). an example route could be london kings cross > finsbury park (via great northern) > highbury (via victoria line) > whitechapel (via london overground ell) > stratford (via elizabeth line) > stratford int'l (via walk/dlr) > london st pancras (via southeastern)

[@gamercatslee9441]

i really wanted to see this i said yesterday it would be a good idea never thought it would happen

[@SB-km6fp]

I assume the next one involving the Metro (although maybe best saved for next year, when that platform on the Northumberland Line opens) is Northumberland Park (Tyne & Wear) to Northumberland Park (London) near Tottenham.

[@officialmcdeath]

If we're about multi-network point-to-points, try Alresford to Alresford - it'll fit with Natt's new job \m/

[@acfbrown1]

I must go on the Tyne and Wear Metro sometime I've never been on it. I've only used Newcastle Central and Metro Centre stations in Tyne and Wear.

[@Saint_Dan132]

what you up to now, glad you enjoyed your time in Scotland, come back soon and the tea is on me

[@Einveldi]

Next time, try Hötorget on the Stockholm Tunnelbana - translates as Haymarket too!

[@Boxersteavee]

Haymarket to Haymarket is probably the easiest point to point. ScotRail to Edinburgh, whatever to Newcastle. Newcastle 2 stops north to Haymarket

[@watsonwatt7984]

Another great point to point video from Nick and Natt & will you both be returning when the new metro stock is in service Newcastle has just been stated as the best place in the north for restaurants etc i will be purchasing some t shirts soon

As someone whos local station is berwick, it baffles me how many stop in morpeth or dunbar and reston if scotrail... berwick and alnmouth just get skipped

[@SB-km6fp]

Or here is something else that works , only on pronunciation- Cannon Street (London) to Buchanan Street (pronounced Bue-cannon i think, on the Glasgow Subway)

Point to Point Idea: Northumberland Park (London) To Northumberland Park (Newcastle)

[@walterfillingham]

So many ScotRail trains cancelled and an emergency timetable put in which they didn’t put on their website or app with industrial action… skeleton service in and around Inverness.

[@danieldabloxgamer9205]

Another haymarket can be Haymarket (Newcastle) to Haymarket bus station (Leicester)

Please tell me you were able to spend some time in the beautiful Northumberland countryside while up that way? :)

[@MrPaulFCockburn]

Have you done Charing Cross, Glasgow, to Charing Cross, London?

[@j.mcallister6641]

A pointless journey suggestion: try going from Edinburgh Haymarket to Edinburgh Waverley, but without ever passing through the tunnels linking the two. (p.s. - Tram from Haymarket to St Andrews Square is cheating) (p.p.s. - bonus points if you find a route with less than 2 changes)

[@garybroadhurst3548]

Wow that IS a long way round for tunnelophobes! I guess the shortest one-change route would be Avanti to Birmingham New Street then Cross Country back up to Edinburgh.

[@k1eranjames]
