- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.ค. 2024
- Take the driver's seat in an LNER Class 801 #Azuma train for a journey on the UK's East Coast Main Line from London King's Cross to Newark Northgate, with full sound and a HUD showing:
• Progress bar with station stop points
• Weather conditions
• Speed in mph (an approximation not recorded on this journey)
• Location (stations and landmarks)
• Fun facts
• Unit number and recording date
We've got just what you need whether you want to feel the speed or take it slow for those British ASMR ambience vibes, and don't forget to book your tickets to travel with us for real at bit.ly/LNERonYT
LNER stations on this route include:
00:00:00 KGX-SVG
00:18:57 SVG-PBO
00:49:33 PBO-GRA
01:06:10 GRA-NNG
Thank you for not having music over the journey, and just the sounds of the train. There are plenty of TH-camrs like Don Coffey who do this and get substantial interest, so I sincerely hope their success bleeds off a little into your channel 😃👍👍
Thank you
What Joseph said…couldn’t agree more.
I love that you included the announcements, and sounds from the ride rather than put music over the whole thing. The facts are great too. This is so relaxing!
The only thing it missed was the 'See it, say it, sorted'
Inside Class 801
However length of some tunnels is missing.
Great to see the actual speed of the loco and the information given.
It's an EMU, there is no loco.
@@Neezabja Thanks for your reply, I should have known better.
Even though I don’t live in the uk let alone Europe it’s amazing seeing a real time trip on the railway and more interesting than the goods trains we see here in Canada
Nice to see England from a train. 1973 I travel by train from Grimsby to King's Cross in London. Greetings from Sweden!
Hej! 🇸🇪
Awesome! I hope more operators do the same!
Don Coffey.Also on TH-cam. Some long frieght hauls as well as passenger services.
Wow, I haven't visited the Cross for a while. I can't believe all the new buildings. The new track layout looks much simpler. Best view in the house. It should be piped into screens down the train for enthusiastic customers.
Amazing work on the video, and I learned a few things that Train Simulator doesn't teach. Please keep them coming!
Thank you
Yeah as did I. Dovetail should really update this route with Azumas and the 3rd Gasworks tunnel etc etc
Very good. Great to have a cab ride without music and real sound. More please. 😊
This is probably the best presentation of any cab ride, I've seen. Well done!
what with filthy window cab screen ?it was terrible picture quality .could have used the wipers.
@@terry-wc9sw A blind person would love to see it...
@@Jack_Warner you have just proved your mental state of mind ,a lot of blind people can actually feel and sense as well as see partial images but you are too thick to realise that ,I actually made a valid point about this video ,as a photographer /film maker myself, I check these things .and besides is it not practicable to make sure everything is set up correctly camera ,lense, and window its pointing out of. try looking at many other cab rides etc on youtube ie uk/euro/international ,most are nice and clean and clear .had the driver of this one used the wipers ,the view would have been a lot better. obvious JACK WARNER you have not seen many cab ride video,s at all .yes other then points I made it was a good video .
by the way did, you reply to the other comments of the same thing, dirty window to other viewers on here ?
Love the video and Hub, great effort, thank you!
Brilliant! Loved very minute of this video! Well done!
More of these please!!! Thanks for a brilliant cab ride and captions/info on journey.
That was excellent. In the style of Ben Elias or Don Coffey.
Great journey love it
This video is great cheers for sharing i hope to see more like this
This is cool, more like this please!! Great sounds to fall asleep to. 😊
Love love love these brilliant
Nice to see you include sound that makes the video lot more enjoyable and realistic.
Excellent video, love the new style & the editing
Loving we have sound this time and location updates.
That's fantastic! Now if only somebody could do it from an Intercity 225... :)
You mean a comfortable, quiet train that doesn't suffer frame cracks LOL!
@@paulcaswell2813 Absolutely Lol
Magnificent, it’s like a NewYears Gift. Absolutely Loved it LNER ❤❤❤
Happy 2024 🎉
Thank you, happy new year
Amazing touch adding in announcements as well.
This has to be my favourite cab ride video. I have saved it to my playlist. The Azuma trains are my favourite and I have model of that train.
The detail and work which went into editing this video with all the facts and information at every moment is what maks LNER the best operator in the UK. you all clearly care so much. amazing work.
PS: oh wow!! the google 'groundscaper' has had some of its scaffolding removed. it looks INCREDIBLE, wow. so impressive
This is brilliant
What a relaxing voice the lady has (brilliant) fantastic video
Enjoying the ride from New York City! 🗽🇺🇸
Thank you for your video. Mick
Thank you
A very interesting video, thanks. Great respect to the drivers on these routes - the level of concentration needed so as to note every signal flashing by must be considerable.
Thank you very much for your comments. We hope you enjoy our future content :)
love this i recently done a trip in firstclass from peterbough to stirling change edinburgh sadly conecting train was canciled but managed to get a scot rail but i must say it was absalutly wonderfull. keep up the good work!!!
What a find - a trip back to my home town (I left in 1969 but haven’t been back since ‘84.) It’s smaller but I always preferred Newark Castle station. Thanks for the ride, and the included info. Am now a new subscriber. 👍🇦🇺
This is amazing
Ooh, following in the footsteps of Don Coffey 😁
Wow, this is awesome!
Nice One Thank You 👍
For fans of this, have a look at don coffey's channel here on TH-cam. He does cab rides with facts scattered through. No telemetry though.
There are also plenty of other cab rides from the UK and other countries, best search term is: train cab ride
Love this, please do more 🚂
Thanks for an interesting video. Things have changed a bit since I last travelled this route (Class 55's were "the new kids on the block" then.)
I love these cab rides and only goes to prove why I should have followed my childhood ambition…
Great video. You have to do more. Ideally London to Scotland would be brilliant, with thanks Matt
that windscreen could do with a clean
Exactly my thoughts all the way through the trip.👍
@@dapto234Amateur footage will always have screenwash/wipers in action occasionally to keep the view clear. And yet here we have the company itself, the 'LNER", not doing this on a basically promotional video!
I live in the Philippines. I wish that we had a train service like this😊😊😊😊😊
Totally enjoyed it. Thank you hope you do another cab ride video. One on a 225 be great too.
Maybe of interest if you want 225.

Love the speed caption, I wish the others would do that
Great video certainly nice to see from the drivers perspective. Would love to see a view from your, class 91 and mk4 set in heritage intercity livery.
Hopefully in a few years will be me in the drivers seat driving for my local area in East Suffolk 👍
Made that journey a few times . Firstly for basic training at ,RAF Swinderby , a short bus journey from Newark Northgate . Then later for Scampton and Waddington . Also the hospital at ,Nocton Hall . Love the format with the info on screen .
It was a nice and interesting cab ride in a day with the sky well cloudy. Thank you for this video and for all your comments given in this video.
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed :)
Really enjoyed the video along with all the “Did you know” information. Only critique is an occasional swipe with the wiper/washer would be appreciated to clear the windshield.
Waow AMAZING
omg i love it
it's great!
brilliant
Absolutely amazing. As I`m a railway lover it's a dream to be a part of your professional team. But it`s imposible, because i`m not from the UK... Thanks for the video.
Pity the windscreen wasn't clean first.A quick dose of the screen washer and wipers would do the job.
As a ex Steam Fireman/Driver I enjoyed your video very much, very informative especially the did you know items.Kind Regards 🚂🚂🚂🚂
I like it, definitely do more.
If you could, mix it up with the occassional 91 and maybe the new trains you will be getting soon!!!
Recommend the Harrogate to Leeds video. Lovely scenery and includes the fantastic entrance to the Bramhope Tunnel, which runs directly under our house!
Inverness in good weather would be my top one to see if doing more in future.
I like your video 👍
Excellent Feature video of a route I've travelled many many times, could possibly have been even better with a clean windscreen, but that's nit-picking. can't wait for the next one.
Thanks, Allan! Sadly didn't notice the windscreen at the time of filming
what the windscreen wipers for then?@@LondonNorthEasternRailway
@@terry-wc9sw wiper doesn’t cover that part of the windscreen
oh yes it does ,as wiper has extended arm .@@DownTheLineASMR
@@terry-wc9sw you can see the wipers coverage area as the train is coming out of tunnels soooo…
Great to see a realtime decent quality video of this. Really enjoyed watching. 😊
I’d love to see some information on the screen about some of the landmarks passed too.
Very good , Would be better in 4k with a clean windscreen
I agree , but It wouldn’t stay clean for long doing 120 through the country side
did they forget to fit wipers on that class?@@kevjaybee3234
@@kevjaybee3234These have wipers. Take a look at the lovely 225 KX-York run to see how this stuff SHOULD be done...
love it
first comment club 🏅
@@LondonNorthEasternRailway you know it
@@LondonNorthEasternRailway hopefully my future workplace
A cracking little route learner giving the important basics. A good idea may have been to have an indicator showing the mileage covered from leaving LKX as the journey progresses.
Great ride, shame about the dirty windscreen.
Five star coverage
Newark, nice little town, pubs look good although traffic can be dreadful round there.
Nasty siege there during the Civil War (note the castle). Celebrated in a work for viols by Jenkins.
I've applied for driver at LNER and just hope I get the call
Thank you so much for doing this it was very interesting. I would love to see more cab rides but please could you clean the windscreen next time? 😀
I loved this route up to Stevenage (as I use to visit my brother who use to live there) shame journey only lasted less than 20 mins
For the speed, I'd also like to see limit too. I miss that from other videos. Also, clean the window please 🤣
This feels like a small channel even though this is owned by one of the largest operators in the UK.
Based on the stopping pattern of Peterborough then Newark, this train must've been one of the xx:30 ones to Edinburgh
I agree. The "train announcements" were I guess dubbed on afterwards, as this train clearly did not terminate at Newark.
How cool 🆒 and how magnificent it must be to be a train 🚆 driver?!
Was going to travel with you tomorrow and do this in real life.
Unfortunately plans changed.
Next time though!
I'm surprised the UK allows level crossings on high-speed lines. The U. S. Federal Railroad Administration requires grade separation for any line with a maximum allowable speed of 110 mph or more.
New level crossings aren’t permitted and the number is gradually reducing across the network but this line dates back to the Great Northern Railway of 1850! Thanks for watching 🇺🇸🇬🇧
When on the train I haven't noticed the tunnels going from Doncaster to King's Cross must of been to busy doing stuff
Nice 👍 good beautiful 👌 so beautiful its is high speed train 😢 😢😢 i comment from Pakistan
Great to even hear the on board announcements voiced by Justine Harris, I'm just curious how she recorded them, i.e. did she record the first part then separately record the destinations for use on the relevant train
A very good video , spoilt only by the. Constant ad breaks . But enjoyed overall. . Looking forward to seeing some more of your videos .
WOW!....Am watching this in full screen on my desktop pc, this is almost like i am in this cab for real👍🚝
Glad you enjoyed!
Could feel the acceleration out of Peterborough!
Excellent. I like the real time speed read out. Am I rright in sayng I didn't see any/many speed boards trackside on some of the 4-track sections? I won't mention the dirty screen since others have - oops, I have mentioned it! More please. [Just seen in the notes that the speed isn't real time but an approximation. Disappointing]
Excellent video, shame the windscreen wasn't cleaned though. Can someone please clarify the flashing green lights on a section after the stop at Peterborough. As far as I was aware, this went back to the days when you were permitted to travel at 140mph on certain sections of the route. As the maximum line speed is now 125mph, why are they flashing?
Fascinating! A trip I have taken frequently (to Grantham) these past 25 years. I had no idea the second tunnel out of London was called Copenhagen - and had always assumed the tunnel before Grantham was the Grantham tunnel - I now learn it is called the Stoke tunnel (after Stoke Rockford, I assume). I’m lucky enough to go first class these days and always find the train crew charming and helpful (which is why I didn’t get stroppy turning the recent days of industrial action!).Nothing, though, beats the fantastic team at Grantham station!
Thank you very much for sharing, this is great to hear!
I love Cab ride videos. Travelled on the LNER from Edinburgh to Kings Cross in March '24. The UK train network is far superior to here in Australia.
A great video, will we see the rest of your Network?
If it's popular we can definitely do more!
A very interesting and worthwhile enterprise in my view, especially showing actual speeds. I noticed that most of the signals on the stretch north from Peterborough towards Stoke Tunnel seemed to be showing a flashing Green aspect. What does this signify please?
From Wikipedia: flashing green aspects are employed on the East Coast Main Line north of Peterborough. They were installed for 140 mph (225 km/h) running in connection with the testing of the new InterCity 225 electric trains, with a steady green limiting test trains to the normal speed limit of 125 mph (200 km/h). They no longer have official meaning, but remain in place and there are a couple of locations where the presence or absence of flashing provides useful information to drivers.
Thanks LNER. I enjoy 'travelling' along a line that I was very familiar with pre-electrification, pre-Hitchin flyover, and most definitely pre-Werrington dive-under.
Was that GWR rolling stock on the left just North of Finsbury Park?
As a child living in Aylesbury, North West of London, I used to get told off whenever we went there for saying "We're going up to London," instead of down.
Since finding out that all railway lines going towards London are designated as 'UP' lines, I feel somewhat vindicated :D
Can i suggest as well as the speed the train is doing, also add the line speed and line name too.
Oh on another note, if the drivers could clean the windscreen more offen
im visiting newark northgate for my first ever time next saturday im doing my honking and getting some train reviews for my channel
Sounds like the driver had forgotten to do the brake reset during cab set-up, hence why the alarm sounded at 0:17 when they moved the master switch to forward 🙂
Putting the brake into emergency and back again will fix the problem,
I gotta ask, what do all the little dings and beeps mean? Also this video is phenomenal! As an American who loved traveling on the train in England, I'm glad that you guys post this because it brings so many good memories for me, and it's also somewhat helpful in planning my next trip this summer!
Single beeps are from AWS (automatic warning system) if the train is approaching a green signal you hear a higher pitched beep, if it’s approaching a yellow or red signal you hear a lower pitched beep, if the tone isn’t acknowledged within a few seconds the emergency brakes will come on, the repeated beep is the dsd (drivers safety device) if acts as a deadman’s pedal, if the controls aren’t moved for 60 seconds the beeping starts and again if not acknowledged the emergency brakes come on
My advice to you all is not to go back to The Cross.......it will make you cry! But imagine the Pacifics at full regulator hammering through both long tunnels, otherwise they will not make it up Holloway Bank!
There's a story of an L1 slipping to a standstill on that bank whilst hauling the (luckily empty) Royal Train!
Can you do an intercity 225 cab ride?
Can you do London King’s Cross to Leeds please
