Ha, love how up & down the country you get lots of different trains in lots of different liveries. Hit Kent & HS1, same old rubbish, back & forth all day.
1:05 is an awesome clip! That horn was perfectly timed with the announcement and it sounded nice too; the high tone was reminiscent of a steam loco whistle, lol!
nice horns and nice lights on east midlands at 09:40 and nice javelins I sore those today at Wednesday 2nd May 2012 and Eurostars too and super fast trains too!
Pretendolino is what spotters call the mk3 and DVT set, painted in the new Virgin livery (the colour of pendolinos) so we call it the pretendolino, because it acts in the place of pendolino's! :) haha
Some excellent camerawork there - congratulations! I particularly enjoyed the shots taken during the snowy weather. Excellent panning too - it makes a real difference to see the train approach and then disappear into the distance. I was particularly struck with the HS1 shots - to quote an often used (and mis-used) term - they were awesome! Thanks for an enjoyable 12 minutes or so. Rob.
btw the 350 (green) was only a 100mph unit whereas the 390 (red) is a 140mph capable unit limited to 125mph line speed. since this video (in 2012) the 350/1 subclass was modified to 110mph and the subsequently built 350/3 and 350/4 subclasses were built as 110mph from new. the 350/2s remain 100mph
kinda, GWR was the original name before British Rail. The current trend is the re-use of the original names like SWR, LNWR, LNER etc whereas when this video was filmed it was all about the corporate names e.g. First
if you use earphones and have your volume about half way the voyagers , Great Eastern trains , MTU hst's s and Eurostars sound nice I use earphones all the time while watching train video's
The Caledonian sleeper is never a set number of coaches. Whoever told you its always 16 is wrong. The amount of coaches depends on the amount of demand for the service at the time. The maximum number of MK3 sleeper coaches being 18. This doesn't include the MK2f's which are randomly added and removed dureing the service. Its entirely possible for the train, dureing a very busy night, to be 24 coaches long at some stages of the trip. Oh and that eurostar coaches are shorter than BR MK2f's
Great selection:) i like the class 90s with mk3s - i see them regulary on great eastern ml at ingatestone or shenfield and class 90s with containers for ipswich
that caledonar sleeper train was so long there was about 16 cars and 1 locomotive but why was there a red light at the front and no lights at the back.Oh! and that train passed a train on the other side going his way!
I once saw a MMT up here in Chester-le-street near Newcastle on the east coast Mainline it was quite confusing and has anyone else seen the 007 east coast train??
Do you see many deutch bahn diesel trains about in the uk. I swear i saw one in westbury station a few months back. I have seen a few of them in munich station when i was there used for shutting or goods trains.
I wonder how much more energy is required to propel the flat-fronted trains at speed? Or does the sheer weight/inertia overcome the issue of aerodynamics?
the problem with this video isn't over use of the zoom feature of your camcorder. the real problem is the video shows ringo pretending to play the drums , yet George and Paul are quite clearly plugged into amplifiers (though I doubt the socket was even switched on). to cap it all, John Lennon never learnt to play the harp, he had to rely on buddy holly for that.
1:11, wow, amazing 2 tone
Who is here a decade later?
I've watched them all and I'm reliving memories
@@theblobmaster332 me too, I could watch this all day ahaha
me in 2024 getting very nostalgic right now
This my favourite vid of them all so far. Because I like trains and I like snow and here I get both! I am a happy girl!!
Fantastic to see the trains at speed
Ha, love how up & down the country you get lots of different trains in lots of different liveries. Hit Kent & HS1, same old rubbish, back & forth all day.
When you see a freight train going that fast you know that technology here is much more advanced than anywhere you’ve ever see before.
Hey jay town I watch you,
Nope their just powered by diesel
This makes me want to go to my nearest train station and just observe.
1:12 I just love that Horn!!!
Me to
My toddler loves your videos. Thankyou for providing me with peace and quiet whilst he watches, transfixed!
Looks like the train horn at 4:13 made you jump a bit
Cool compilation of fast freight and passenger trains. Thumbs up! :)
Greetings

Well done mate, this vid really kept me watching right to the very end. Absolutely love the HS1 clips, very cool indeed !!!
Love the whooshing noises these trains make :)
Loved that Midlands train at about 2 minutes - so much snow! It ripped it up like sand!
i love those 390s and the 350s
nice horns and nice lights on east midlands at 09:40 and nice javelins I sore those today at Wednesday 2nd May 2012 and Eurostars too and super fast trains too!

I liked the part at 0:49 because both of those high speed trains were overtaking. LOL.

mmmmmm a 350 and a 390 racing :-D
btw the 350 (green) was only a 100mph unit whereas the 390 (red) is a 140mph capable unit limited to 125mph line speed. since this video (in 2012) the 350/1 subclass was modified to 110mph and the subsequently built 350/3 and 350/4 subclasses were built as 110mph from new. the 350/2s remain 100mph
This train is so absolutely beautiful!! 😀
That snow just goes everywhere!!!
thanks for the greate shots there you should come here to Ireland and see the trains here
Very nice...
5:27 Train_PlaneHub predicted the future (GWR is actually Great Western Railway)

wow! At 1 minute 10 seconds at predendlino made a very loud noise but at 2 minutes 50 seconds a pendolino horn sounded and bit loud!
i liked the part of 4:12 who says ''platform 3 does not stop here. pleasestand well clear from the edge of platform ''TRAIN HORN''
I love the pretendolinos horn
The good old days of snow the UK has nothing now
if you use earphones and have your volume about half way the voyagers , Great Eastern trains , MTU hst's s and Eurostars sound nice I use earphones all the time while watching train video's
Very swift ! , In india there are only a few trains that run on 70-90miles an hour. Each train is atleast a kilometre long :D
Love the Pendolino leaning at 01:27

It's nice to see even in these modern times that the DVTs and HSTs are still running... Maybe we just can't afford new rolling stock
The Pretendlino's horn is awesome!
Is that at 1:10
Great selection:) i like the class 90s with mk3s - i see them regulary on great eastern ml at ingatestone or shenfield and class 90s with containers for ipswich
Excellent video.....thank you!
3:38 OMG THERE IS A EAST MIDLANDS ON THE LOOSE
thanks for the great train videos.
hehe careful you don't stand too close dude :) nice vid
10:57 most beautiful train in the world
Like the snow vids. Thanks
Taking some shots from Slough!...I live like 200 meters from where you were filming lol
1:10 my favorite moment
those trains sure go fast past the stations.and you could get blown of your feet if you are not careful.
john fontana that is why you have to stand behind the yellow line. There is a real danger of being sucked off the platform.
Enjoyed the snow clips
First one is at Milton Keynes and so is the first pretendolino
I love fast trains they are amazing
1:05 Prendilio Screams LOL LOL
Nirailways Belfast to Dublin it is spelt Pretendolino
"spelt"
0:30 That pendelino has a beard!
HASHT#G Its Santa XD
On the GWR route I think the best place to spot is didcot because you get steam trains and hardly anything stops there
nice, prefer the lighter liveried rakes, especially the white coloured rakes!!
some great shots of Pendos in the snow. I wonder what they'll look like in First livery.
2:22 Don’t ask me how that train manages to go from London - Scotland within 11 hours at that speed.
I believe because it hits very slow areas on the northern end
I LIKE TRAINS
Brilliant vid!
Thunder Storm! That train was fast on 09:53
9:53
i did sa the train of Virgin near too ikea when i go far and i did saw one angila trains too and a train on 9:12 too!
70m/h=112km/h very fast and advanced.
awsome
Greet stuff, I’ve just started my own channel having been inspired by yours and others content ❤
I wanna do the Caledonian sleeper xx
0:32
Does that pendolino have a snow-shield or something?
Excellent!
that caledonar sleeper train was so long there was about 16 cars and 1 locomotive but why was there a red light at the front and no lights at the back.Oh! and that train passed a train on the other side going his way!
Why is there an MML High Speed Train on the ECML section?
It was on hire at the time :)
thomsonfly645k Expliqué a
That DVt horn at 1:10
Very fast and speeding trains
Love the horn at 2:50
Hey nice train Bro!
@Ozzy788 the caledonian sleeper is longest passenger train Europe.
Eurostar 373:ahem
woooo hooooooo... too fast for me.... I feel dizzzy
I see, thnx.
i loved that :)
6:26 I love this bit.
Awesome!
Really enjoyed this :)
They were racing at the beginning of the video well probably passed only just passed the beginning
I once saw a MMT up here in Chester-le-street near Newcastle on the east coast Mainline it was quite confusing and has anyone else seen the 007 east coast train??
Do you see many deutch bahn diesel trains about in the uk. I swear i saw one in westbury station a few months back. I have seen a few of them in munich station when i was there used for shutting or goods trains.
Caledonian sleeper is not long enough but eurostar and tgv is the longest! Are you sure that is long?
In germany we call this "bummelzug"
Exciting!
@trainmad77 The pretendolino. Its Virgin btw not Vurgin ;)
1:11 This great service train horn, train horn is train is so fast
Because Train to the London
Yes I don't now where my bloody jobs going I will try and get one with cross country
What´s the top speed of Virgin Pendolino? (km´s)
Thnx for a great video :D
Cheers
I've tested it before and it can go at speeds of up to 170Mph
The tenth virgin train on the west coast mainline the ten car one
I wonder how much more energy is required to propel the flat-fronted trains at speed? Or does the sheer weight/inertia overcome the issue of aerodynamics?
Haven't been on euro star because I get nervous go in tunnel because I don't know how long in tunnel to get to Europe
amazing video man! :)
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh cheer uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup
nice vid but it would be nice if you told us the name of the location on the screen
rangelso It is at Wolverton

My FB App is back. I did nothing when it disappeared. I did nothing and it's back, there's really a bug on its new update.
