GeoGuessr Decides My Train Journey..

[@AFCManUk]

"Do you want to come to Llanhilleth with me?"... Now THAT'S an unexpected chat-up line!

[@mattevans4377]

Does Nick actually want to chat her up though? Factually speaking.

[@LeightNightsAhead]

Nick: How do I chat-up a woman? Also nick: Drag her onto multiple long hour trains for the whole week

[@conallplatts5244]

@@LeightNightsAhead well, why not?

[@Nooticus]

You two are literally THE cutest couple (im pretty sure you’re a couple anyways? i guess i missed if there was an announcement!) on youtube, actually relationship goals to travel like this together 🥲 keep it up both of you !

[@InkItOut]

Aww thanks 😊 and you didn’t miss any announcement we didn’t really announce anything to be fair 😂

[@andyt2510]

Did Birmingham to Lincoln ourselves in 2019 - the last part from Sheffield was our one and only time on a Pacer.

[@LemoncloudGT]

OUCH Sheffield to Lincoln on a pacer

[@andyt2510]

@@LemoncloudGT it was a novelty for us to be on one - they didn't visit the West Midlands (our local area) much - though it was a 3 car 144 with high back seats if I recall so not the full Leyland National experience!

[@dave_h_8742]

​@@andyt2510You poor folks, well at least you can say you've been on one & survived a pacer

[@ReubenAshwell]

A brilliant video Nick, I like the idea of Geo Guessr finding stations for you to travel between. Really enjoyed this video. :)

[@paultidd9332]

They just get better, great original idea. So glad the trains were having a good day with all those changes and TPE weren’t involved 😂

[@Moothedog0]

“If I’m not mistaken” - nick said not realising at the time that he was in fact mistaken. Upon realising his error nick badley knew that he badly messed up. He then cried for a few seconds before correcting his error and resuming with his day

[@NickBadley]

Accurate description of me when editing

[@barryread423]

Nick Badley. The quintessential new voice of British Sat navs. “So there we go, So yeah, you have arrived at your destination, yes, but yes, Wooohoo! Goodbye (while saluting with eyebrow raised)”

[@improperrunner]

This was brilliant. Please do it again. Cardiff to Brum is a journey I do a fair bit. The views are pretty spectacular

[@simonro9168]

I love that both your and Geoff's video had a guest and both of you acted like you just happened to meet them on the train. Funny coincidence!

[@PhilHoughton-k7j]

Perhaps you should consider adding a third geoguess station as a “via”, so for example: Warrington to Kings Cross via Bournemouth.

[@simonsv9449]

Well, that would mean Avanti West Coast from Warrington to Birmingham, CrossCountry from Birmingham to Bournemouth, South Western Railway from Bournemouth to London Waterloo, London Underground from London Waterloo to Warren Street and then London Underground from Warren Street to King’s Cross.

[@quintuscrinis]

​@simonsv9449, why change at Warren Street? In fact, why use the tube at all? Walk up to Waterloo East and the change for Thameslink at London Bridge.

[@mcollier4566]

You both make a great double act and compliment each other so well. Glad all the connections worked out on your mammoth journey!

[@Sim0nTrains]

Nice journey and love the pointless Journeys gags in this one. But a nice journey that GeoGuessr decided

[@latido-ondulado]

i love the idea , great video nick hugs from portugal

[@peterdean8009]

Be honest... how many 'goes' on GeoGuessr did you take before it came up with Llanhilleth to Gainsborough Lea Road instead of, say, St Ives to Thurso?

[@Nooticus]

why do you think it wouldve picked close places? It’s completely random

[@Nooticus]

You honestly have some of the most original ideas ive seen on youtube in a long time! Legend!

[@FMP346]

Not original i created this idea

[@Nooticus]

@@FMP346 your videos look great, I just watched a few! but 1. your channel is much smaller than Nick's, so perhaps he hasn't seen your channel before? and 2. how do you know there wasn't an even smaller channel than yours doing this before you without you realising...

[@Eurobrasil550]

Another interesting well presented video Nick, Thanks. An idea for a journey that came to mind, a train journey on the National Rail Network that would require the most number of trains and changes to complete, That is using a recognised route that a 'normal' passenger would use, and the least number of trains to complete it, not sure what such a journey would be yet, are there any journeys that would require more than 5 trains to complete? I will have a look when time permits.

[@kr46428]

Excellent run, though I had visions of Geoguessr handing you a brutal 14 hour "Penzance" to "Inverness" combo. I think there is a single CrossCountry that gets you most of the way without changing, but I expect you'd need buttocks made of clouds to pull it off.

[@namenamename390]

What a brilliant idea. I want to do this myself, although I'll have to wait for the "German train stations" map to cover more than just over 100 stations.

[@IncidentBreakdowns]

Nice you got a video of my local train station "Chesterfield" in there!

[@LucasCraven-n6v]

you should do more this was really fun

[@AngelWedge]

I need to try this. But I think I'll be more likely to let it pick a destination in the morning, book a cheap room up there, then try to get there by the end of the day. Then off to somewhere new tomorrow :)

[@TransportJct]

Everyone thinks 2 hours on a 170 is bad but Scotrail operate 170’s between Glasgow queen street and Inverness via Aberdeen which takes 5hr 30

[@mudchute4dlr]

didnt hull trains have 170s when it was new?

[@Thornaby37]

That sounds like a very cool game to play I think it would have been more of a challenge if GeoGuesser had chosen Gainsborough Central as a destination

[@visi99n]

Oh yes I very much agree 😅, it's a great video regardless

[@terrymoore9388]

Great video and barmy as usual. Keep entertaining us.

[@Roblilley999]

Great Idea. Least it wasn't Penzance to Wick

[@minigamers1255]

It might actually be easier than you think The once a day 13hr cross country frim Penzance to Inverness or Aberdeen (I forgot) Then a Scot rail to wick

[@JessicaRainbow]

Llanhilleth is just down the road from me. I pass that station all the time. I'm surprised they put a nice train on for you - it's always a real surprise what train type they're runner each day! You could have been on a 150 if you were unlucky! But TFW are doing a lot of work to that line to increase capacity and also have brand new trains on the way, so yay!

[@nigelkthomas9501]

It’s about time you could get a direct train from Ebbw Vale to Newport instead of having to go all the way to Cardiff! It might even be quicker to jump off at Pye Corner and get a bus, or even walk! If I’d done this journey I think I’d have stayed with the XC turbostar to Nottingham and then gone via Newark Castle and Lincoln. Good video! 👍🏻

[@OlanKenny]

Yeah but who wants to travel on A) Cross-country and B. A TURBOSTAR for that length of time?

[@nigelkthomas9501]

@@OlanKenny I much prefer a turborstar instead of a crappy voyager! Prefer a 125 or loco-hauled even better! Why are nearly all new trains such utter crap these days?

[@DavidCollison]

Great concept and great facial expressions!

[@LucyMichela]

You just do this again and it suggests Penzance to Scotland 😂

[@Transpennine]

Brilliant video, love your videos mate 😊

[@RealTheBritishGamer]

hey nick, the reason the first class is declassified is because tfw are sending most of there 170s over to east midlands railway so its in preparation for the transfer

[@MichaelSebastianTodd]

this is a brilliant journey brilliant video

[@GaffGiff]

Lovely video, I watch all your vids, I even got asked if I was you by some Merseyrail staff 😂😂😂😂

[@NickBadley]

Wow so someone who looks like me gets recognised by Merseyrail staff before I, myself, do Brilliant 😂

[@davidspear9790]

Before I've watched, I'm guessing the simplest route is Llanllilleth to Cardiff, Cardiff to Nottingham, Nottingham to Gainsborough. Let's see...

Me as a train nerd asking my crush out: “Do you want to go to Llanhilleth with me?”

[@Andrewjg_89]

Have you done railway lines and railway stations in the Republic of Ireland such doing Limerick Junction to Limerick. And maybe you should do Windsor & Eton Central to Windsor & Eton Riverside via London Paddington and London Waterloo.

[@etiawneb]

Out of curiosity i just went on geoguessr, not sure the 25 minute journey from Enfield Town to Hackney Downs would make for an enthralling video......🤣

[@shymike]

New drinking game - drink a shot every time Nick says cool or goes woo

Probably take 6 hours to Cardiff when the ebbw vale service is replaced by a bus there has been a lot of work going on the line with new platforms at newbridge and llanhilleth some years ago took me 15 hours risca to Inverness
