That first one you referenced was indeed the most exciting uk train clip I've seen! Also the horn from that transpenine train is just disgusting imo xD
It’s strange seeing so many stations I’ve had to commute to and from in 1 video. Been to Doncaster, Cross Gates, Garforth, Kirkstall Forge and Mirfield specifically for work
That Grand Central paint scheme reminds me of the old Illinois Central streamlining passenger trains back when the railroad companies here in the U.S. ran passenger trains. The I.C.R.R. had a different shade of orange stripe and the coaches were chocolate brown. Of course those old passenger trains were before my time.
53:50 is it me or does that look too fast for that curve. I mean I know the tracks can handle way more than what the train can but to me it looks like it was a couple of miles an hour short of using the platform edge to make the cure without derailing.
Well it’s all about friction right. That curve might not be tight enough to exceed the force of friction meaning it can stay on the track. Also it might just be going at the max speed of the curve so it won’t derail. But I agree sure does look like it’s going to
I'm glad we finally have some electric power enabled locomotives for loco hauled services like freight and some passenger services because the toll on the environment is not needed.
In my opinion, despite most of British main Railways are now electrified with overhead catenary or third rail, there are more diesel multiple units than their electric mates. In a world that could be unliveable in the next few years we have to change a lot of things to something cleaner, even trains, which I consider one of the most eco-friendly transport system
taking into account factors such as the cost of keeping the network in proper use, the annual passenger numbers, the density of the network nationwide, the enormous amount of services on offer, the average speed of UK trains and the number of fatalities, does Britain have the best and more efficient railways in the world?
Diesel electric locos have diesel engines that are actually generating electricity which is then used to power electric traction motors that drive the wheels. This is a far more efficient and powerful way to run a loco. The diesel engines don't physically drive the wheels This is a very simplistic explanation. An electro diesel tends to be a dual power loco that can run off overhead or third rail electricity or it's own diesel engine. The British Rail Class 73 is an example.
doesnt feel right to see a train on british tracks without the yellow painted front. why dont a lot of the newer trains have that anymore? I thought it was pretty iconic
A lot of newer trains don’t have them because the yellow was first painted on diesel/electric trains to make them more visible to track workers back in the 50s and 60s. Now all the new trains have bright LED’s rather than conventional headlights. Also workers have trackside technology to let them know when a train is due
I've always found it odd, that as a Nation that has been hell bent on health and safety issues the last 20 years, we still allow trains to go by at eye level this fast.. xD
Love the intercity 125 roaring past. Still a beast after all these years.
The Eurostar passing by sound is so satisfying!

Javelin be chillin
You are not the only one who is more interested in the 395s. The new seimens trains look so ugly!
It's not even in there!
Fantastic!!! Living in South Carolina, brings back memories of home...cheers mate!!
I like the part when the train went by
Which one haha
Wdym the train
Me too
Ah yes
That describes most of this video bud.
A LNER. driver made my day today. He pictured me sitting in his drivers cab. Ace. Thank you that man
WOW
I love how you included our local boring EMU the class 333
And forgot the 395 which is also a high speed train that exists in the UK
Class 333s and 332s look futuristic
half a year later, they're out
@@thefatcontroller4094 What about 720?
@@tescotrain My opinion pls don't cancel me but I really loathe the shape of the 332/3's front.
36:18 guy enjoying the beat.
lol
Incredible! Lost for words to be honest. The best high speed rail video I’ve ever seen on TH-cam hands down. Great work, thanks...
Me who watched this again after 3 years,good vid
16:00 Heart Attack Moment 😨
😂
The class 91 inner-city 225 virgin is my favourite train :D
Great video!
Keeping me entertained during lockdown.
The old train spotting days comes to mind with 08s 40s 47s and most of all, the deltics....
Wow! This is amazing. Well done! 👍
yes
Why Indonesia build her 300Km train only spent Us 730 million dollars? And only takes 8 yrs to build?Is it a magic?
I love trains.My favourite one is:LNER AZUMA
It’s strange seeing so many stations I’ve had to commute to and from in 1 video. Been to Doncaster, Cross Gates, Garforth, Kirkstall Forge and Mirfield specifically for work
Great job! I love those 66 freight shots :)
Great! I've really enjoyed UK trains. Differences of each trains are clear for me living in Japan.
37:14 WOOWOOWOOWOOWOOWOOWOO!! :) The 374's don't WooWoo like the old 373's :(

2x eurostar crashes
The speed was: 400 miles per hour

If you do it on 2x its way more faster 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Like sonic boom

Very good collection of trains at speed. I really enjoyed it. :)
Man the 91 is so classic
Great to see some Class 91 Virgin's back. I live near Leeds so that's my local train! Great video!
No it is Virgan Trains East Coast not Virgin Trains
It is

that eurostar and the class 220 in northallerton is a monster!
and the class 390 too.

Great video a different kind of trains at speed UK
britain´s massive, dense railways are superb
Great video ! Keeping me Safe during Cornavirus 🦠 And Christmas 🎄
Superb shots ! 👍
4:42 great speed there
15:11 'For God's sake!' :)

Lol😂
Nobody
These trains: I am speed
*lightning McQueen intensifies*
Love those HSTs
Great video. I miss the Grand Central HSTs!
ME TOO
Very good....Regards.
the trains are cool maybe one day when the Coronavirus is over i can go see UK and see some trains and ima sub to you
POV you skipped to watch your favourite train go by
I remember when BR had a HST Nightrider from London to Edinburgh&onto Glasgow QSt.
Excellent video, can't wait to get back out there on the platforms!
57:33 Best moment ever!
Very nice video . 👋👋
Don’t mind me… just here for the class 373s
So satisfying 👍👌💐
Top video mate, big like from me,
Class 88 loco was simple superb 👍👌💐
Stratford International is like seeing a whale coming up from the depths to get some air before sliding into deep water again
Love this all transport should be electric 👍🏻
I could watch an hour of 373s whooping past just on their own.
Great video and a lot of different trains 😀
Awesome videoo....superb....love from indian❤️

Was it just me or did the 225 have 8 coaches and not the usual 9
yeah only 8, how odd?
Yeah I only saw 8..
Very nice video!! Greetings 🚋👍🙋♂️
So cool
Hoping for some HST action..
# wow I like the class 66 with the underground tube map on it

Nice Video !
The IC225 set at the start, was the wrong way round. Do you think it got turned at the loop at Newcastle?
45596 Bahamas I noticed that also!
0:52 when I play cricket and I'm running to the whatever that is and I'm like bye sucker ants alot of times
I like it in fast and slow motion
Fast!
Americans: why is this video at x2 speed?
Europeans: why is this video at x0’75/0’5 speed?
Both US and UK fastest passenger trains are slow tbf
the train at the start of the video is similar to the australian express from perth central to melbourne flinders streeet.
Damn speeders
Often amazed we can stand several feet from something passing at 100mph.
what a vid
thx
Fastest thing with Virgin written on side is my broadband bill
taking into account factors such as the cost of keeping the network in proper use, the annual passenger numbers, the density of the network nationwide, the enormous amount of services on offer, the average speed of UK trains and the number of fatalities, does Britain have the best and more efficient railways in the world?
I would think the answer is Japan. Isn't it?
Seen the old HST do this and still a damm good train
It's the prettiest train.
It is said that class 60 and class 66 are also diesel-electric powered on Wikipedia.
Diesel electric locos have diesel engines that are actually generating electricity which is then used to power electric traction motors that drive the wheels. This is a far more efficient and powerful way to run a loco.
The diesel engines don't physically drive the wheels
This is a very simplistic explanation.

14:53 I guess the driver got a bit too far from Paddington...
doesnt feel right to see a train on british tracks without the yellow painted front. why dont a lot of the newer trains have that anymore? I thought it was pretty iconic
Yeah it’s a shame. However GWR and LNER kept the signature yellow front on their new Class 800s which is pretty cool I think

Now all the new trains have bright LED’s rather than conventional headlights. Also workers have trackside technology to let them know when a train is due
