I enjoyed this! I subscribed to you as well. One request... Could you Announce the Stations and where the Junctions head off to? That would be brilliant! Think we got A Mouse .... A (Circle) C train up ahead!" (I liked that!)
It may be inappropriate place to give questions like this, but, considering your knowledge in London tube... What do blue number signs after each platform mean?
Does anyone know whether one minute is long enough to change trains at Moor Park? I want to change from the southbound service from Amersham to Baker Street (which arrives at Moor Park at 6:34am) to the southbound service to North Harrow, (which is scheduled to depart at 6:35am). I'm a pretty fast walker and can run as well, so that wouldn't be a problem. It's not coming up as possible on the TFL journey planner, because I assume they think most people wouldn't be able to do it in one minute.
at first, I thought this train auto-pilot, then when you turn on light.. now I can see the driver, nice video btw.. somehow, this underground tunnel bit scary since no light on it. Here in RapidKL, Malaysia, its auto train and you can see in front of train just like cab view with light on inside the tunnel.
Zaihan J There should be flight in the tunnel but they don’t open during operation (some MTRs like Guangzhou Metro like dizzying passengers by opened tunnel lights and shoddy pmw cabin LEDs)
There has been a lot of expenditure on the basics - track, power and signalling. It’s around 20 years since this started. Beforehand, it was patch and mend as you go. Now it’s station upgrades and new stock.
Greatly enjoyed this as a born and raised New Yorker (NYC) and major subway fan (I'm building an HO-scale NYC inspired subway layout), I also love the London Underground and have a question, I know that the outer rail is the electrified third rail, what is the center rail for? GREAT video!
The lines are electrified with a four-rail DC system: a conductor rail between the rails is energised at −210 V and a rail outside the running rails at +420 V, giving a potential difference of 630 V, the isolated traction current return allowing a train's position to be detected using DC track circuits, and reduced any earth leakage currents that could affect service pipes and telephone cables.
@@73APhotography That's nonsense. It isn't either - AC isn't used. The outer rail is at +420V DC while the centre rail is at -210V DC, so that the train uses the 630V DC between the two. There is an exception on lines such as between East Putney and Wimbledon which are shared with trains that collect power only from the third rail, using the track for the return: here the outer rail is at +630V DC while the centre rail is bonded to the running lines at 0V; there are sections that switch automatically between the the two at places such as Putney Bridge.
LU Railway Enthusiast I’m really interested in an Eastbound jubilee cab ride to figure out the structure reserved for Thamesmead branch at North Greenwich Sta.
@Dan Coleman The modern clutter on the platforms, the bridge and second entrance are hideous and unnecessary, but I am grateful they preserved and restored the original station entrance. I am glad I am not the only one who detests the modern clutter and add ons on the platforms of Farringdon Station. However I wished they kept the old station name barriers where it mentions the lines they run and the little roundels on the side of the barrier.
26:25 I couldn't agree more. Especially the section you are on.
This was a fun ride. Thanks!

Interesting how busy the line out of Marylebone is compared with how it used to be.
9:10 abandoned station
[Electric_Vortex NoCopyrightUsers I’m sure that’s the old kings cross
Abandoned in 1940
EthanPlaysYT yes it is,to the left there’s the Also abandoned King’s Cross Thameslink station

What do blue number signs after each platform mean?
Telling you how many carriages have left the platform
@@BenTaylor. That makes sense

Zaihan J There are lights in the tunnel*
How do the signals change at the exact moment the train approaches it?
Thanks for your videos!
where are the tracks into the tunnel at 28:08 going?
This track comes from Neasden depot
At 5:20 -ish, there is a bracket that moves at the end of the juice rail, (centre, bottom). is that part of the trip-cock device?
That's called the trainstop. The tripcock is attached to the train itself.
Came here for world's oldest stretch of metro, was not disappointed.
Great video but shame windows weren't clean on inside!
Southmead Lad I know right
5:23 the trainstop arm thing lowering as signal clears
Ah yea
Hello. What is the use of middle track? Electricity?
Hello. Here is wikipedia article about third rail:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_rail
Hope this helps!
London Underground operates on a third and fourth rail system. 630 volts DC. One rail at 420 volts, the other at -210 volts.
@@paulanderson79 no LU only deals in 4th rail i think.
@@Tuukkohakee should be 4th rail
@@j2m3_raiden5 LUG is definitely uses two conductor rails.
Farrigton a ouvert ses portes en 1863 elle fut l'un des premiers terminus de la ligne
How are these trains so smooth and quiet compared to NYC's subway?
White Wolf Americas railways are shite end of story 😂
There has been a lot of expenditure on the basics - track, power and signalling. It’s around 20 years since this started. Beforehand, it was patch and mend as you go. Now it’s station upgrades and new stock.
And this line is the oldest one in the world
Because Londoners aren't obese like Americans so the trains sit lighter on the rails
I love Trains
Nice👍🏼

I love teains
Do u work on this line?

Mark 'BhigDaddyMark' Ferguson they are both electrified, outer is DC and the middle is AC (it may be the other way around, can't remember completely)

Fast or Semi Fast or all stn?
Whoever was driving shut the doors on a red signal at GPS WB.
Whatever you do, never, ever stop in a tunnel. That's when the NightStalkers reveal themselves
1863 mise en service entre Paddigton and Farrigton
9:10 is that an abandoned station?
It's the old original platforms for Kings Cross station
Londonist Kid Initially how many platforms were there
Yes it's King cross and Thameslink station a new station which is 500m away
Did you ever do a full cab ride between Stratford and Stanmore on the Jubilee line in real time? If so, would you consider posting it?

Speaking of cab rides, how do you do this? Do you ask the driver or something?
@@gabrielcolon8900 Just ride the DLR there's no driver and everyone can sit at the front
How did you took the video? Are you one of the drivers of tfl Underground?

Farringdon use to look lovely, now it looks hideous with all the modernisation, leave the old structures alone.
