I love Croydon! It's so amazing with the trams I love taking. And by the way, buses are also a reliable way but I think the Overground is the best service on the planet. Make more trams, TfL, I want your city to be very unique. Make tram stops in Central London.
I find it funny how the CR4000 trams have the line number to the right of the destination "Wimbledon 3", while the Variobahnen have it on the left "4 Therapia Lane". I visited London over Easter and our hotel was directly next to Wellesley Road tram stop, sadly it was closed when we were there
El viaje en tranvía de Alicante a Benidorm en España es un viaje muy boniito. En el centro de Alicante los tranvías son subterráneous. También parte del recorrído es al lado de la playa.
Comrade Charlotte they had double decker trams!?!?!??!?!?!?! That’s fucking awesome, nowadays theres fucking health and safety u have to pay like 30 quid for an open bus which used to be free and used daily
Articulated trams are far superior. Double decker models are largely a relic when trying to join different sections was more difficult. Articulated trams load and unload faster, don't have stairs to go up and down, and can carry more people (no standing on the top level), and are guided by the track anyway
@@brokenbritain1930 it has nothing to do with health and safety (after all, we have double decker buses) and all to do with practicality, and the reason you have to pay more for open top buses is because they're only used for tourist buses. Why are they not used for regular bus runs? Because rain exists. The rain means that the bus will fill with water which will corrode the bus, and no one will want to ride on the top when it's cold or raining, which means that half the time no one will want to go up there
And I thought I was the only person making films in Croydon. Someone will watch this when cars fly and their are colonies on Mars and say weren't they primitive
I wish are bus system was this efficient our bus system goes everywhere but yet it doesn't go anywhere inconvenient bus stops you have to walk a block or more to get to your destination.
stuart balchin It's not bad, it's just got a bad reputation. You can visit there many times and not have a single bad experience. Having been there myself many times I'd know haha.
Tanki Divide In central Croydon the trams are running in a "loop", so the trams are passing through different parts depending on which direction their going in. Check out the London Tube map and you will see how I mean.
The point is simple. Before the trams to get to Wimbledon by road took anything up to two hours at busy times. With the trams it became a guaranteed journey time (at any time) of 25 minutes. No the buses do not go faster than that.
Health and safety is pathetic, if I was gonna build a city it would have super high speed trams like roller coasters in the air going above the city, none of this slow rubbish
They built a light rail system not a city! Croydon is a bit older than Tramlink and given the topography, an overhead system would certainly have been like a roller coaster - not a lot of good for most passengers!
That's because of the law. This is a light rail system and is governed by the Railway Inspectorate - they do put a lot of store by Health and Safety. Those who do not are generally either reckless, or simply not the people who have to take the responsibility when things go horribly wrong.

Curves: Exist
Trams: EEEE EEE RE E EE
I remember when it was being built, caused all sorts of chaos, everyone thought it would be a white elephant, how wrong they were
Thanks for the word of the day
I'm in love with trams! Trams are the greatest invention of the 19-20 -eth century!

Nearly every European Capital has Trams
I used to get these all the time as a kid. The nestle building.. Fairfield Hall. Gah the good times. I nearly forgot about surrey street!
Nice video! Glad to hear the trams having actual bells instead on an electronic recording! It was also nice to see some Signle level buses!
am a big fan of train and tram videos. i really like this too. thx

Croydon and the Docklands are different!
Daredevil aaa
Daredevil A tram service in central London from Paddington to London Bridge
Unique? Many cities around the world have trams.
The streets are too small
Lovely shots from the bustling streets of Croydon.
Was in Croydon today... the trams have very large Pantographs!

Dope! Always round these ways. Remember them in the 90s and now, how times have changed!
Jacob Jesuthasan the trams began in may of 2000?
@@tobeytransport2802 there were more trams a long time ago. Not in Croydon only but like everywhere. Now its replaced by the buses.
Great video! I was in Croydon today.
These need to be around more of london
I really enjoyed this video. No bombastic music or comentary. Perfect!
Beautiful, I love Croydon’s trams
I remember seeing a video where a car slammed into a tram on Wellesley road, the tram literally derailed
That's evidence the rails are safe from any currents that may cause death though
These trams are amazing!
Like the sound of the first fleet😊
2:39 how small do you want the middle part to be? the tram: yes
always amazing !

SimonHellinger London buses all have destination then number on their forward blinds, but the other way round on their side-facing smartblinds
SimonHellinger It says that there are 27 replies when I see one.
Amazing video Luftschlange! Keep up the amazing work!
Really nice to take anyone around crydon
Thanks ..1984 ..i was east croydon ....from seoul
I like how it accelerates
Simplemente bello....
Schönes Video
Muy buen vídeo, debería hacer un vídeo de los autobuses de Londres
El viaje en tranvía de Alicante a Benidorm en España es un viaje muy boniito. En el centro de Alicante los tranvías son subterráneous. También parte del recorrído es al lado de la playa.
Haha, I got this video and a tram video from Melbourne in my subscriptions at the same time! I can't help but watch both and compare which is better.
The other video is from ThebusofdoomFSX
Tanki Divide lol I watch his vids
Which is better?
Melbourne is much bigger
These are the same trams that are used on line 22 and line 12 here in Stockholm the only difference being that they are in a different colour.
Nope
Riding a Variobahn in Croydon will be quite interesting. Helsinki are giving up theirs.
Croydon gave up theirs. Then they had Trolley buses until 1959, then gave those up too. Forty years later - Tramlink!
I love your videos!
I wish you still uploaded tho :I
Luftschlange needs to upload more videos
@@maimadha yes
nice trams
The only thing we will never have is a driverless tram. Even driverless vehicles are still very obviously rare right now.
DLR has been driverless since it was opened.
driverless vehicles are tested on motorways in Germany; They also have driverless subway trains already
@@paulanderson79 and the DLR is not a tram
I think they're a way off still, but I think it would be easier to make a tram driverless than a car or bus
You telling me they've restored tram service in London but not double decker trams?

I love trams
Nobody:
Me who watches London Trams: ‘Since when did trams have turn signals 🤨’
lovely shot
And I thought I was the only person making films in Croydon. Someone will watch this when cars fly and their are colonies on Mars and say weren't they primitive
Great video '
ive loved croydon since i was a kid im now 13
im 15 now lol
Very nice
There are from Germany (Köln and Nürnberg).
I wish are bus system was this efficient our bus system goes everywhere but yet it doesn't go anywhere inconvenient bus stops you have to walk a block or more to get to your destination.
I noticed the old whitgift hospital and the alms houses.
1:44 were they arguing
10:15 I guess that’s why they decided to build them in that area.
QuarioQuario54321 ha no
QuarioQuario54321 its goes through some of the worst parts of londkn
Unbothered. The good public transit is supposed to make bad areas better.
Does anyone else not have the CC for this video?
No CC on this one.
Same here
Nice 👍
Holy fucking shit I just saw myself on one of the trams on this vid
didnt know we have these in london
thought they were only in manchester
they're also in Birmingham Sheffield Edinburgh and Blackpool
@@malcolmgeorge1180 and Nottingham
I hope no one bothered you while in Croydon
why? s it a rough place?
+Camilo Ramirez the area is a bit of a high crime rate
What kind of crime? Is it primarily property crime, or is it largely violent crime?
+Eileen Sweeney violent crime with street gangs outside the station robbing people. Criminal damage shop lifting
stuart balchin
It's not bad, it's just got a bad reputation. You can visit there many times and not have a single bad experience. Having been there myself many times I'd know haha.
Why do they have one way tram lines? Where is the line that goes back the other way?
Tanki Divide In central Croydon the trams are running in a "loop", so the trams are passing through different parts depending on which direction their going in. Check out the London Tube map and you will see how I mean.
what I mean*
Tanki Divide the trams go to Wimbledon out of Croydon the other trams change routes so that there destination is complete
Tanki Divide theres a loop
it's just like oneway street.the one that goes back is another side of the blocks.
I live in Croydon
MERRY_RBLX So do I lol
I Love my CROYDON. For life.
is it cheap rate fare ?
£1.50 flat fare and can be used with the bus hopper woth oyster or contactless
Yes it’s only £1.50 single or £4.50 but you need to use oyster or contactless, they don’t take cash on the London tram
What happened to tabener House
Aston Martin Demolished a couple of years ago. New building on same spot called Bernard Weatherill House for the Council now.
Old tram don't end
Sometimes I take the trams to school
What's the point of it? A bus goes faster than that wtf
Its way longer and more efficient
The point is simple. Before the trams to get to Wimbledon by road took anything up to two hours at busy times. With the trams it became a guaranteed journey time (at any time) of 25 minutes. No the buses do not go faster than that.
as long as you don't choose the longest bus vs the shortest trams, a tram usually has a much greater passenger capacity
@@Alaois buses on seperate bus lanes or completly seperated bus roads can avoid traffic as well you know ...
Yeah but I wish that tram crash didn’t happened
Awesome video. By the eay, I am 11
sorry I meant way
Taishaun Lyons so?
I thought it would be unusual
11? I think a lot of people are 11 on this planet.
I thought it would be unusual for an 11 year old from America to be watching London tramspotting
Am Croydon tram user please don't use it only me I can use it lol
Buses
Health and safety is pathetic, if I was gonna build a city it would have super high speed trams like roller coasters in the air going above the city, none of this slow rubbish
Then know one would like your transportation and good luck on making something fast
Zohaib Jamal well other countries manage to do it
