God the world was so different back then, it’s almost like looking at another planet.
What struck me is the mannerism of the men folk helping the ladies from the carriages. Taking hats off in greeting it wasn't a perfect world by any measure but it is refreshing to witness the courtesy.
But strangely, not one lady takes her gentleman’s arm.
good old times
It might have something to do with the big dresses. Maybe getting in the way. If they had jeans on maybe they wouldn’t have needed help and the culture would be different ?
Blame third wave feminists
1st and 2nd wave got to these social norms long before 3rd, 3rd wave I doubt are even very aware of what those social norms were.
For anybody wondering, the two locomotives seen are (1) a London & North Western Railway “Teutonic” class, and (2) a class “DX”.
The class in what people were wearing back then is truly amazing.
The people from back then would be horrified to see what everyone dresses like nowadays.
Most people were in a lower "CLASS" ...
@@coldsnap999 I thought about that, but even today's higher class is dressed with no style comparing to that era
I think practicality won out for the better. Can you imagine waking up on a bad day and having to spend 40 minutes getting dressed in order to go outside?
@@octap79 modern day fashiom got no drip
I love historical fashion, seeing everyone burst on to the platform in the beautiful dresses and suits, makes this particular clip one of my favourites I've seen :) 🖤
It's the present... On a different moment... I will go insane...
Nowadays, let me put my onesie on XD
Thank you for bringing these pieces of history back to life!
Lots of comments here about the clothes of the passengers at Henley, but hardly anything about the first part of the video, which is quite fascinating for those with a historical interest in railways. I've never before seen such remarkably high quality footage of moving trains from so long ago.
This is the old London and North Western Railway (the Premier Line, as it liked to style itself), at the time the largest railway in Britain, and the location is the Britannia Bridge over the Menai Strait between North Wales and Anglesey.
The claim that the first train is the Irish Mail (which ran between Euston and Holyhead) is borne out by the location, and by the fact that the train's eighth vehicle is a travelling post office van with its net for collecting mail bags on the move plainly visible. The locomotive is one of F W Webb's notorious Dreadnought class 3-cylinder compounds, though it seems to be coping adequately with its load in this shot: the safety valves are blowing off, showing that the crew are having no trouble keeping up a good head of steam. Notice the driver (LNWR locomotives were left-hand drive) staring back at the cameraman. He'd probably never seen a movie camera before.
The second train appears to be a local passenger service. While the Irish Mail has some bogie carriages this train is composed entirely of older rigid-wheelbase vehicles, mostly six-wheelers with a few four-wheel vans. The locomotive is a Special DX, one of a class originally designed by Webb's predecessor John Ramsbottom and later rebuilt by Webb. This was the most numerous class ever to run in Britain, with 943 of them built between 1858 and 1872.
Finally, note how clean the engines are, almost unbelievably so for those of us who are old enough to remember the filthy, run-down condition of British locomotives in the final years of steam. Even the Special DX, a workaday locomotive originally intended for freight traffic, is spotless and gleaming. This was nothing unusual in Victorian times. Labour was cheap, and there was no shortage of people willing to do the job. The engine driver was known as 'the king of the working classes,' and the first step on the ladder to this prestigious (and normally secure) job was as an engine cleaner.
Thank you very much for the great information!
I think you’re spot on. Whilst I’ll admit the fashion of the passengers is great and it complements the train, the footage of LNWR locos at work is the most interesting part.
How beautifully dressed the passengers are!
This is an absolutely amazing video clip! The colorized and slowed-down-to-normal film segments make you realize that all the people you see in them were all real and alive once! These film clips are truly time machines!
It’s honestly amazing that we have footage of LNWR trains in action, and footage of the people travelling on them.
A more civilized and elegant time comes back to life.
People dressed so much better back then - with class and elegance. Yes, we are more comfortable today, but something is lost.
We need to bring back elegant clothing like this!
You can just wear it if you like
People wouldn't fit in them.
I will say I am a bit tired of seeing women in yoga pants and baseball caps.
@@erebus79 ok? Lol
Choice is one of the best invention since these times.
Beethoven`s Piano Sonata No.21 "Waldstein" fits in this footage very well, and women`s clothes look very elegant. When this film was shot in 1898, British Empire reached pinnacle of prosperity. At that time, Great Britain was a roll model for Japan. Anglo-Japanese Alliance was signed in 1902 in order to deter Russia`s aggression into East Asia.
Wish they used a better recording 🤷🏼♂️
Thats nice to know bro!
Yeah but they didn’t have Nando’s back then.
They should’ve used a recording of someone who can actually play it
and I noticed a Japanese gentleman entering centre-screen, sort of from the left, starting at 0:57 until 1;06
(and then there is a man that looks like George Bernard Shaw from 1:07 until 1;16, but that's another story)
The colors are so vivid - I think you have invented a time machine!
and this is only the beginning!
Astonishing, I literally rubbed my eyes in disbelief at the opening footage of the pedestrians in full contemporary garb.
This footage is nearer in time to Beethoven writing the soundtrack (Piano Sonata No.21) than it is to the present day... Mind bending indeed!🤯
The old Brittania bridge across the Menai strait with its ornament lions and 6 wheeler coaches.
Much better than the new bridge built after the fire and Diesel multiple units.
The ornamental lions still exist on the rebuilt bridge! They're bit hard to see unless you take a pedestrian path up to their level.
Uploaded on Christmas. What a nice gift and Happy Christmas to all of you :)
These trains are so freaking cool and beautiful!! I wish I was born in that time period!! 👍🏻
I think the novelty would wear off pretty quick!
Right up until you had to visit the dentist...
So beautiful. I wish it lasted longer.
Absolutely Astonishing work!
The way we dress today is simply inexcusable.
14 years before the Titanic sank.
Merry Christmas y'all!
Merry christmas!
thanks y'all
they look so elegant and classy!, oh what I'd give to bring clothes like this back into fashion along with any other 19th century fashion era (except the 30s)
Even the peasants dressed better than most people do today.
Depends what taste you have and what you compare with. Quite a few of my ancestors from this period was really poor farmers, those who were technically forced to work. They were not dressed fashionable (they had one good outfit worn for photos and church) and lived really tough lives. Got whipped by the farm owners and such. This was Late 19th century Sweden.
It also depends what type of fashion and what countries you are looking at. Also the type of farmer and where they were. A lot of farmers could barely afford proper clothing at this time period. They usually had few possession and food could be scarce, so fashion was obviously not a priority.
Depends on countries, if you are in Japan even the poorest will dress cleanly.
@psoravior What do you mean, it’s a question of taste? You are comparing these elegant people to modern casual clothing, jeans and t shirt, there’s no comparison……the victorians dressed like beautiful swans, today we look like common pigeons……even the poor made an effort, even though they looked like they had been chimney sweeping
Sagte ich schon lange.....t Hemden. Schlabberhosen. Ungebugelt. And kappen.....please. bisschen viel?
Have you seen footage from this time period in Japan...? You might be surprised - I know I was! Difference is incredible over just 100 years.
Every video on this channel is so uncanny. Insane this was so long ago, brings it back to life today ❤️🙏
Simply beautiful to watch ❤️. Thank you for sharing these videos
I love this so much. Thanks for your work on this.
Look how how good the trains are. The system getting to its peak here.
And one of my favourite pieces of music! And that's from a rock guitarist.
Such elegance ! 👏
They all look fabulous.
This train really brought a time travel!
A real time machine, almost!
the best we'll ever live to see
Sometimes I wish I could just step through the screen and into the time and place being shown.
Amazing. Colour makes such a diff to old black and white footage. Love all the gentlemanly conduct going on.
Really amazing to see these sort of videos
Back when you didn’t have to wait for a complete stop.
¡Que imágenes tan bonitas y que gentes de tan alto criterio estético!
Wow the style is just beautiful!!! How elegant were everyone!!!!
it's cool to see my favorite pre-grouping railway company (LNWR) in colour. it means a lot thank you Laddie!!😉
Another amazing video restored from the past. Love it. Thank you for bringing to life old movies of people who lived their lives long ago.
If you're looking for videos of men wearing hats, you've hit the jackpot.
Something I’ve noticed is how tall many of the women are. Thank you for sharing these moments.
This film takes place on the London & North Western Railway (L&NWR) and here are the locomotives featured:
1. L&NWR "Improved President" Class 2-4-0. These were built from 1887 to 1901 at the L&NWR's works in Crewe and Designed by Francis W. Webb. In 1923 when the Grouping Act was passed the L&NWR was absorbed into the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) they became part of their fleet. Withdrawal of the class began in 1905 and ended with the final one in 1933. 1 has been preserved, No. 790 "Hardwicke" and is now Preserved at the Locomotion Mueseum in Shildon, County Durham.
2. L&NWR 18" Goods (often Nicknamed "Cauliflowers") Class 0-6-0. These were built from 1880 to 1902 at the L&NWR's works in Crewe and Designed by Francis W. Webb. In 1923 they became part of the LMS. In 1948 they became part of British Railways (BR) when nationalisation took place. Withdrawal of the class began in 1922 and ended with the final one in 1955. All have been scrapped.
If someone can provide me the names and numbers of the engines that would be very helpful.
Thank you very much Nice video
Interesting that the train tracks are angled at sharp turns. They knew their physics well.
It’s known as canting, and yes it was to prevent the trains from having to slow down to take the bend.
How i would love to visit back then
They probably just came from the Dublin to Holyhead ferry. That was the main passenger-liner route between Ireland and Britain in the 1890s.
My grandfather was 8 years old at this time, living in northeast Wales.... (he died when Mum was 13 - so I never met him 😔)
Amazing quality!!
I recognise the bridge at the beginning - it's the Britannia bridge across the Menai straits between Anglesey and Bangor, Wales 🏴👍😊
I remember going it through on the train years ago going to London. IIRC it was burnt down and its not the route any longer. Anyway its cheaper & quicker by air these days from Dublin to London I believe.
It's fascinating, yet depressing when I realise this level of civility will never return.
That’s exactly what I’ve thought for years.
Amen
Lol civility haha you need to do more research about that time and stop romanticizing images.
they only had few dresses or suits sewn for them, sometimes worn for years due to the lack of money (clothes were made manually and tailored to each individual, using natural materials, hence the cost was a bit high), but they were so elegant and put together even if they were wearing the same outfit over and over again. Each wardrobe would include at least a dress for walks/trips, one for cocktails or parties, one for receiving at home, and one for private indoors, but all made to perfection, according to each lady's taste. Today we have access to millions of options in clothing (many of them in plastic and weird taste) and people prefer to have a full closet of low end clothes that are not elegant, instead of a few ones that create a signature wardrobe and make you feel and look classy. The clip made me feel sad to watch those beautiful lost times and to know that only 15 years later, many of the men would be thrown into the war (WWI). Lost, lost beautiful times.
The corrected speed and clarity is marvelous. These are people one can recognize. Truly brings the past to life.
I think this is the only channel where i watch the ads to the Ende. Happy xmas!
124 anni fa,..e sorprendente vedere delle persone che guardano la macchina da presa,e nn sanno che noi li stiamo guardando dopo un secolo,con il pc,.....
Amazing work as always!
Super video quality and this music well done
The unlikely choice of Beethoven is in fact perfect for the action in your video. Colour is truly amazing.
so beautiful!
Marvellous opening sequence of Stephenson's famous Britannia Bridge over the Menai Strait to Anglesey as it used ro be!
Just like sering a painting in motion 😀
This is superb!
Wow! Beautiful clerestory carriages lnwr and gwr and the costumes!
Wow! Its so alive with colors!
Maravilloso!!!
The title is a bit mistaken. 1895 instead of 1898. It was filmed in the summer of 1895.
It was filmed by Hepworth & Co in July 1899.
Ah, to be an umbrella salesman back in those times.
Fantastic
Amazing!
Perfect!
Awesome!
Dudes just had to be dare devils. Jumping across the track knowing the other-direction train was coming.
Some things never change!
Those were the golden days for milliners.
WOW! So COOL!!
Hi Ken, Nice one....Dave
Ah, the day when graffiti did not cover trains. Sigh.
Yeah what terrible days no color
Wonderful! Thank you. Where on earth do you find all these treasures? Amazing.
Most of these people have passed away.
I'm sure all of them have passed away...
Great. Now I want a fancy dress. LOVE IT
Amazing work. Thanks for share!! Im just a little bit histeric with velocity. Since 1:00 to forward, setting velocity (personalize) to 1.1x works perfect to me. ;)
Sublime!
Wow. Interesting.
Merry Christmas
The old dude that comes into frame at about 1:10 on the left was probably born in the 1820s or 30s, damn
I find the train footage amazing. How do they do it? Apart from the colour, the clarity.
Nice! :)
Wow those ladies wore an absurd amount of clothing.
They had modesty, class, and elegance something women in general do not have today .
@@juliaannegrider5734 you mean rich people? Lol
Nous sommes vraiment peu de chose dans la vie, quand on remonte dans le passé.
Notice how no one acted stupidly and complained that the cameram didn't have their "permission" to photograph or record them.
And the Coaches at the beginning of the video appear in the 2000s when Thomas & Friends aired Emily’s first day
Everyone dress so well
Qué imágenes pensar que antes éramos así
Y esto hace poco 🤦🥵
Great!
UNA SENSACION EXTRANA DE QUE VIVI ESA EPOCA.
It was so much more classy back then.
That sounds quite misinformed and depends what you mean by classy. Poverty was wide and deep, civil rights where just at its infancy, so there was all around a lot of injustices.
There was a lot of nice fashion from this era from around the world. But to imagine it to be classy, or more classy than today, based on this is pretty shallow.
@@WiffGiff people don’t care, they look back with “nostalgia” for periods of time they haven’t even lived through. Nice clothes but was it more classy? I don’t think so. People were savages back then, very racist homophobic and overtly religious to the point if you weren’t of the faith you would be demonized. They had to dress so “classy” to put a mask on all of the hatred phobias and racism they all probably felt. Strange times for strange people… nice clothes though
@@wordssmit6667 I think so, Better a world wherein your country was your own, that your nation represented your people, than for it be some zip code devoid of pride of its own mother culture, wherein the public space is foreign to the people who live in that land, and more and more they are being shunted out from the very places they built up.
Notice how everyone is wearing either black or white even though this has been colourised lol. I guess since the original film was in black and white the restorer didn't think they were wearing any colour. But I can guarantee it would have been such a vibrant scene
Probably not, people at the time complained about the predominance of dark colours in men's fashion.
Nice 😁😁
