As a frequent Picadilly line user, it's gonna be wild to see the 73 stock for the last time, and then seeing these for the first time at my local station
I'll bet she does clean, conscientious installs. You've got to be good to get a position in that shop. Always great to see more women in engineering, especially in high end shops.
Geoff, you are always so enthusiastic in all your videos but this one especially. It is transmitted to the builders you speak to at the factory and what’s ready Important is the enthusiasm show by those employed by Siemens to build the trains in Goole.
"here at siemens, we like to do things properly" made me laugh, after the new siemens trains we got at my company in germany last year, with screens in the drivers cab installed upside down and switches installed the wrong way around 😅
Siemens built over 100 class 700 trainsets (up to 12 cars long) for Thameslink in the UK and, even though their seats aren't very comfy, they are very reliable trains!
The Siemens units have incredibly uncomfortable seats - a bed of nails would have more give in it. The interior decor is more drab and depressing than a 1960s kitchen sink drama, and they also have to be operated as 12 car units all the time, which is incredibly inefficient. Apart from that they’re great.
I’m well happy they are going. Absolutely hate the boiling ugly and uncomfortable trains they use. I commute on the older ones too much and I’m happy they will be gone.
I didn't realise how worn out the current picadilly line trains were until recently, couldn't believe it when I saw how yellowed the white paint on the trains had become. These new trains are much needed, lets get them on the bakerloo as well!
@@AshBashSneakers Exactly this. There's no point in TFL spending huge money on the 73s now. They'll be on bare minimum maintenance from now until they're withdrawn. Which will be sad to see, as they do polish up nicely. But that's how things are. And by juxtaposition, It also makes the new trains look even shinier!
@@AshBashSneakersthat’s exactly what’s happened. I saw an article the other week outlining how often each stock gets cleaned, and the Piccadilly ‘73 stock was the least frequently cleaned taking place only every 43 days
Taking a moment to appreciate your video work. It's looking very good, I like all the little additions to the interviews to break them up. All the years I've watched your videos I've not been back to the UK, so it's lovely to see the change through them.
I have always enjoyed learning how things are made. But what really made this video was seeing just how much you were enjoying seeing there!!!! When one truly loves what they do it shows!! Thank you!
As someone who works on Engineering and Manufacturing apprenticeships, it was great to see an apprenticeship working on this project, and im sure there are more there.
Great video! As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, I grew up very near Goole. Many of my friends live nearby. It’s always been somewhere with loads of potential and sadly a negative reputation. The boost this factory has given the local economy as a whole is wonderful and will continue to have a ripple effect for years to come. The trains look great too, as does the suit!
Walk through bodies on such a small train is going to be interesting. Glad these are at least being assembled mainly in the UK, and the apprenticeships on offer 🙌
Geoff, the recent series of behind-the-scenes videos (dispatching, West Highlands inspections, et al.) have been absolutely fascinating. Thanks for sharing this rare access with us!
Great to see these trains being built in Yorkshire! Hopefully we secure more orders for other stock that needs replacing soon! The Central line could really use that Aircon haha
@@harrygraves6870 Had to lookup a number of videos, and the intermediate cars are truly suspended by the adjacent cars instead of being deposited on jacobs bogies (shared between cars). I assume there is some dort of sting articulated joint. Siemenes pres srelease mentiosn that it was inspied by light rail vehicles/trams that often use such configs.
Even though the 1973 Stock trains are my childhood and have enjoyed growing up riding them for many years, like they say all good things at some point must come to an end and I cannot wait to try out the new Piccadilly Line trains when they hit the tracks. It’s also my favourite Tube line which is more reason for me to be excited 🙂
Great video Jeff! Love to see the passion is high as always and you can really feel the good energy in the air Siemens have for making these Piccadilly line trains. It’s been 50 years since the last trains were made so it’s well needed 👌
This is an exceptional vlog Geoff. Goosepimple inducing! That's a model of what UK manufacturing could be and, perhaps, should be in the 21st Century. The "Village" fills me with pride and hope for the future. Each member of staff, from the apprentice to the bosses, exuded confidence and pride. The Best of Britain on show. Bless you all.
It just makes sense - if they can put the order in before they're finished with the Piccadilly Line, then they don't need to fire anyone at the end of the project and later rehire & retrain people, lowering the costs.
Ideally central government would greenlight the Bakerloo Line extension, as well as new Bakerloo Line trains. If the line is extended one or two extra trains might be needed.
Thanks so much for posting a most insightful, yet fun but above all most uplifting story about how the London Underground is investing a significant sum of money building a fleet of brand spanking new Piccadilly Line trains. And that that significant investment has led to a significant investment in a new train manufacturing plant at the East Yorkshire town of Goole! I really do hope that the plant and its new jobs for local people in Goole are secured by a further significant investment by London Underground to build a fleet of brand spanking new trains for the Bakerloo Line. A line in desperate need of new trains to replace the ageing current 72TS🙂
It has always been the case with metal bodied trains that once withdrawn from passenger service for scrapping, the interiors are stripped and the metal bodied cars are melted into liquid form for recycling.
I've got it! It's the industrial sector's version of the first time home owners' front room on a Saturday after they've returned from IKEA with a flat pack sofa, except here it's a tube train.
I actually saw one of these being moved by rail freight this morning at West Ealing. It was going from the Great Western Mainline to the Greenford branch, so I presume it was going to West Ruislip depot.
Here in NYC they just started running the new R211S trains in Staten Island, well one of them. Really just seeing how it does in real world use after months of test runs without passengers. (Staten Island Railroad being built by B&O and not the usual suspects wound up signaled/cab signaled like a railroad, not a subway, but the MTA wanted subway cars here, so these are customized versions of the R211).
@@julianbassett5172 Kawasaki, I think the Staten island cars are being assembled in Yonkers (likely from Japanese made parts). There's also a plant in Nebraska.
Geoff, Your video last year on the new DLR had much better large sized windows and its hands down brighter, letting the sunlight through, and the passengers can see the outside clearly through the large windows in the New DLRs 😀 👍
I be looking forward to seeing the new Piccadilly Line trains coming into service from next year. And I hope that Siemens do build and manufacture the new Bakerloo Line trains at Goole. Very nice factory in Goole, East Yorkshire.
I served in the Royal Corps of Signals at RAF Wildenrath, using radio equipment made by Siemens. Now, Siemens is using the old airfield as testing/proving ground for their new trains. (Tenuous connection, I know!)
The 2024 Tube stock looks amazing but I should say the number of times I came to London from Australia, the 1973 Tube stock always had a place in my mind since 2011 and will never be forgotten when they are fully replaced. Gonna miss them heaps, but at least they will have a few years left in them
Not only new, fresh trains for the Piccadilly and other future systems, but great jobs in Yorkshire. Promote the trades to create great jobs that can support a community
Once the new trains are in service, I will definitely look for 1896 every time I ride on the Piccadilly Line. Then I'll remember that I saw that unit under construction on Geoff's video. I only come to London occasionally, by way of Heathrow. I either go to Hounslow Central to stay in a hotel. Or even if I transfer terminals, if I have enough time, I do it landside on the Piccadilly line.
Fantastic Video Geoff! 👏🏻😄Looking forward to seeing the new 2024 Stock on the Piccadilly! 😄👍🏻 I didn’t know they were building them in Goole? 😱 New tube trains made in Britain! 🇬🇧 OMG British Engineering is making come back! 😄🎉
Cant wait to see these trains in action, as someone who lives at Finsbury park I always take the victoria line and pass on the piccadilly just out of convenience and change later on e.g green park, because the 09 stock is much faster, but when these trains roll out the 09s will look at bit older in comparison! No doubt there will be some competition there, with ATO the picc will be one of the new most reliable and efficient lines.
As a passenger, having cool air blowing on my head sounds pleasant. But a 'hot air rises' simplification suggests those floor vents aren't going to be pulling out the warmest air.
New trains since 2010 have been built with elements like grab poles in contrasting colours, usually yellow, for the benefit of people with visual impairments. It's part of the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations but old stocks are grandfathered in so don't need to be adapted outside of a major refurb.
Hi Geoff. I dare say I'm being a little dim here: how are the bogie-less cars supported. By being supported by the cars bogies, maybe, but then how do the connections/supports bend to get around curves?
I am loving the hard work and effort to get these new trains out into service. But can anyone let me know if the new piccadilly line trains will turn the line into a sauna like the New York Subway. (For context, in NYC, the subway system in the summer gets really hot on the platforms because of the hot air that is exhausted out of the train.) I hope that this won't happen and TFL has a way of dealing with this issue. thanks for reading a lengthy comment :D
The Siemens hat looks almost exactly like my Siemens baseball cap from when I worked for Siemens IT services. I'm also amused that some of the safety nets are Siemens teal
As a frequent Picadilly line user, it's gonna be wild to see the 73 stock for the last time, and then seeing these for the first time at my local station
As a driver it’s gonna be a crazy change.. can’t wait to see the passengers face when we finally get to drive these
@@AshBashSneakers interesting!!
I still remember the A-stocks on which I grew up. Its an awful shock but hopefully you get used to it eventually. 😢
Cant wait to see them at Arnos Grove
Can't wait to see the back of the old banger Bakerloo line stock when Siemens build those stock for that line.
Jade the Apprentice engineer showing the wiring; she was excellent, she was so professional and relaxed on camera and knows her stuff, good job Jade.
Great to see women in engineering too. An example to young girls of a career path they could take.
Please dont wear metallic jewellery on an electrical worksite.
I'll bet she does clean, conscientious installs. You've got to be good to get a position in that shop. Always great to see more women in engineering, especially in high end shops.

I’m well happy they are going. Absolutely hate the boiling ugly and uncomfortable trains they use. I commute on the older ones too much and I’m happy they will be gone.
Old trains are the best 😊
Gonna miss the classic brush traction motors & manual driven technology
This is what the museums in Covent Garden and Acton are for. I assume they'll preserve one or two.
@@caw25sha I think it's standard procedure to retain at least 1 unit of each thing as they decommission them for museum duty.
Tech details like the HVAC and body crash resistance are what make me watch a Geoff video. ❤

Because of the new trains maintenance for the 73 has probably slowed down considerably
