The North London Line brings me joy in the mundane

[@JenOnTheMove]

If you’ve read my recent community post, I’ve just sat in front of a camera for a few minutes to give some context… I’ll put that out later this week ❤️

[@DanielMultipleUnit]

Hope you feel better soon, Jen!

[@jaybee1921]

Hi Jen, hope you will be well enough to get back to your Happy Self...find yourself a nice stretch of water to aid your recovery...x Take care, Jon B.

Jen trains usually help me

[@soton5teve]

07:30 - it doesn't annoy me 😊. What does, is that I just happen to have the stereotypical gammon looks 🤷‍♂️😅. 😘

I remember when the North London Line went to North Woolwich. It was a slow and dirty line at the time but there was a good railway museum at North Woolwich station and from there you could (and still can) walk under the Thames or take the Woolwich Ferry. The line is much better now the Overground have taken it over.

[@Keithbarber]

And the alternative docklands light railway route offers a much better service plus connections south of the river

[@johntauren]

Acton has seven stations. North, East, South, West, Central, Town and Main Line.

[@memediatek]

So glad youtube is showing me your video today! A Jen video brings me joy :)

[@jonhigginson4096]

The A41 goes all the way into Liverpool via the Birkenhead tunnel. You’re dead right, it travels some. Cracking film, really enjoyed seeing you sucking up the calm on your walk.

[@matthillmedia]

Such a gorgeous woke train, I absolutely love it. I feel a series coming on 😂 Great as always Jen. X

[@Alhana_E]

I absolutely love that dress!!

[@SchnitzelDaemon]

I love your dungaree dress! It's awesome 😁

o recently did Wilesden Junction its great for trainspotting trains on the WCML the North London Line & good for freight & its prob one of those places you need to spend hours there trainspotting & im loving the Pride train & it looks amazing & i recently had a ride on that train & loved every minute of riding it & even got a shot of it now brilliant vlog

[@jacobporrett]

Should have visited the Park in Acton Central. It's got love pary and mini golf as well.

[@Hollowtrees1]

I mean, I love trains...that's what I'm here for. But I can't say I'd be mad if you were also exploring nature preserves and all that jazz. I love all these little glimpses and it's all my cup of tea. :)

[@ReubenAshwell]

Brilliant video Jen, I've still not been on that aprt of the North London (soon to be Mildmay) line yet. The Overground Pride unit is awesome. :)

[@marthaanderson2656]

Thanks!

[@JenOnTheMove]

Thank you _so_ much... that is beyond generous!

[@Sim0nTrains]

North London Line is a good commuter route, great video Jen

[@-MapEnthusiastjj4eu]

I commute on that line it's great 👍👍

[@spacechannelfiver]

I did a few years shuttling between Hampstead and Richmond; generally pretty nice - although when it breaks it breaks pretty spectacularly.

[@rachyrach8286]

Back in the late 90s i used to go between Willesden Junction to North Woolwich quite frequently

[@johncrwarner]

There are surprisingly many green places in the great metropolis. Thanks for sharing these locations,

[@KEITHMU]

The Gunnersbury Triangle Nature Reserve looks great. Lovely solitude with passing trains. Couldn't be better! Hope you are doing ok x

[@SamsVlogstrainsmore]

Great vlog Jen. I’ve not been to any of these overground stations yet maybe I will do one day.

[@officialmcdeath]

All manner of crazy walkways and freight connector lines around Willesden Junction, almost worth a video in their own right - Hampstead Heath a good place for the next clip to start - thanks for the summer vibes \m/

[@jaybee1921]

Hi Jen, jyst watched your North Londin Line vlig, I assume it was made before you felt unwell? Be reassured that we're all hoping to see you back to your happy self soon... Take care, Jon B.

Willesden and Kensal are very handy for accessing our narroboat when it is moored in that part of That London

[@acfbrown1]

I've only been on it once when in 2014 when I was staying at a friend's flat in Tufnell Park. I got the train from Gospel Oak to Barking but I came back via Waterloo.

[@acfbrown1]

I might have been on the district line through gunnersbury in 2003. I can't really remember.

[@airfoxtrot2006]

Great video Jen, hopefully one day you do stations on the Sussex coast, Chichester has a canal i can show you it 😊

[@Thornaby37]

This used to be one of my local lines many years ago, back when the service was a two coach class 416 every 20 minutes. I've lost count of how many times West Hampstead station has been refurbished / rebuilt since then. It's a pity you were only on the Pride train for about 30 seconds, as West Hampstead and Finchley Road & Frognal are very close together

[@simonboulton4490]

Jen you can see voyagers at Wilsden junction.

[@aedanjmcghie]

I stayed in Brondesbury Rd, beside Queens Park station, for 3 years. It was pronounced the way the on train did it.

[@davejoey]

Great video as usual Jen! So many Actons!

I like to visit one randomly once in a while. I call it Acton on impulse 😂

I have been on the North London Line. And very soon the North London Line is to be renamed as Mildmay Line from Autumn this year.

[@chancerNW]

Loved your comment about annoying the Gamons!

[@ayestea]

I love this one as have travelled on the NLL many times but never seen outside many of the stations. Love the Pride train too , what’s not to like ?

[@anthonywarrener1881]

Thank you for this great video ! I also really like the colourful Overground trains. I use the East London line of the Overground daily, and the names that have been conjured up for the various lines making up the Overground system are absurd, and just political nonsense. The name coined for the East London line is the Windrush Line, which is daft. The Windrush refers to the ship Empire Windrush which used to dock at Tilbury - miles from any station on the East London line ! My fellow passengers and I will continue to refer and use “The Overground” ! Enjoy your walks and I look forward to your next video!

[@michaelmiller641]

Great video, Jen

[@MrGreatplum]

Great video, Jen - you know it wasn’t filmed recently as you were complaining about the heat 😜

[@robynrox]

I wonder if there are people who refuse to use those brightly-coloured trains. Can't say it would make me unhappy to learn that there are!

[@dazzlingdaz187]

Definitely better off travelling without those people 😂

[@ashleyjiscool]

Even if I don’t like the design, I would use it cause it’s unique and I need to get where I need to go.

[@rosiefay7283]

7:29 I like seeing the Pride flag too. And art that incorporates it. 🏳‍🌈🏳‍⚧

[@garybroadhurst3548]

Last time I was in the London I did the entire Overground in a day! Of course, I didn't get to see many of the stations like you did Jen - that's for another time. One that comes to mind is Crystal Palace. There's a lovely privately run cafe inside the grand old station building so, when you finally get down that way be sure to stop for refreshments. I found myself at Willesden Junction a LOT on that trip! It's not pretty but I finally came to appreciate it - like you appreciate your washing machine really - it's there, it does a job, then you ignore it for a while.

So, so many stations that are NOT wheelchair accessible, and even those that are, the trains are NOT! Heavens above, London, get your act together!

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

That nature reserve triangle was only lacking a proper water feature (lake/pond/canal) for it to be perfect, right, Jen?

[@IowaTrainGay]

Yay! Pride Train! ❤❤❤❤🎉

You could just make videos about nature reserves. I’d watch them!

[@thisisstuart7951]

Jen didn't the old network south east tiles at Willesden Junction made you at least like the station?

[@justwobert9850]

Is the Trainbow the "correct" colours, cause they've had the oppertunity to use the TFL colours for each of the lines but I'm not sure they have. and it'll be such a shame if they haven't used the TFL colours
