*@6:22 - 12-car sets, not 10 car sets! Can't count 👍
One of the easiest facts you forgot to mention is the whole line is a loop with many more mini loops in between. I believe SE HS operate full loop down to Ramsgate via Ashford and Dover Priory and then come up back via the Chatham Mainline
This video is absolutely amazing and too underrated, you just earned yourself a subscriber
Thanks very much Angry Bird! Great to have you aboard and thank you for the love comment!
Straight to the point and some very interesting facts. Great video!
Thank you very much good sir 👍
Informative video well put together,thanks for this one !👍👍
Thanks Paul! A much tough edit to pull together than I thought hence the slight delay, so comments like yours are much appreciated 👍
Absolute brilliant video. Looking forward to more.
Thanks very much BPMR! All the best to you and your channel 👊

This is a brilliant Video congrats on 100 Subscribers I just hit 300 Yesterday!
Hi TYT! Don’t think I ever replied to this - was stuck in a “Held for review” section for some reason. Thanks for your support as always and hope you’re keeping well!
Great video as always :)
Legend, thanks Harry.
Very nice fact file video with some very good quality footage featured! I found this very interesting to watch, and have subscribed. 👍👍
Thank you very much pal - your channel is a real favourite of mine so this is a very special sub for me indeed. Take care and have a good rest of your week 🥂
@@trainsonthebrain No problem! Thanks for the nice reply 🙂
What amazes me about your channel is that you started your channel one month ago and you are already to 100 subscribers
Thanks pal - it’s actually been three months now I think, but it’s still flown by! Lots of work still to do but getting there slowly 😃
Just found your channel - can't believe you don't have more subs! Learnt a lot from this video, great stuff! 👍
Thanks very much CMG, very kind and have subbed in return! Glad you enjoyed it - this video has blown up out of nowhere recently so there’s been a brig surge in subscribers since, hopefully that continues but I’m just enjoying the journey for now 😃
@@trainsonthebrain thanks a lot mate, appreciated. i’m sure if you keep making videos of that quality and originality you’ll be getting those kind of views consistently! :)
Awesome video!
Thanks pal!
Fact #102, Southeastern just got nationalised.
Indeed! Going to need to do an updated version of this at some point I fear.
Great video! Congrats on 100 subs! Could you do a video on GWR?
Thanks Jacob! That’s definitely in the pipeline. Hopefully once the pandemic calms down I can get back out on the road and shoot more footage - currently using working with photos and my own shot-footage, but GWR is definitely one I want to work on!
Great video never knew some of these facts about SouthEastern
Thanks pal - was a lot a fun to research. Definitely a unique TOC. Looking forward to the pandemic calming down so I can get out and grab some more of them - would love to tick off all 29 Javelin sets!
Southeastern is now owned by Department for Transport .
Great video!
Thanks Caimano!
Fantastic video of my local TOC! 😊

straight to the point i like it very interesting brilliant video
Thanks Adam, hope you’re keeping well!
@@trainsonthebrain aye no worries pal , I’m doing well mate , how about you everything alright your end
A local to me, nice video!
Cheers Matt. This video slowly seems to be blowing up - viewership has shot up in the last few days! Glad you enjoyed it 🍻
Another fact: On the class 395's if you require the disabled facilities and they have not made an announcement on which end of the train this is located, as the train is approaching if you look at the nose of the train and see what looks like yellow headlights they are on the front of the train if not then start walking to the back as it will be on the last car.
Great tip Cy, thanks for the head’s up and thanks for checking out the video!
@@trainsonthebrain No problem was told by a SE platform staff member if you look at the video thumb nail and at 0:04 into the video you can see them, at 0:04 they are next to the mask sticker on the nose. Makes is so much easier rather then watching the train go by looking for an orange sticker then having to run to the ether end of the train with some one in a wheel chair
@@Cyborgdelta1 Oh cool! Didn’t know SE staff had watched the video, that’s great. Agree on those other bits too 👍
6:00 yeah, not the isle of sheppey version, that's the ramsgate version, isle of sheppey version of minster don't have a train station
I like the High speed
10:59 sounds like the class 395's
amazing
Thanks pal
2:20 my station :D
Nice area!
Here is another: the bridge at Gravesend station was removed and put into a large museum as it was so old.
Great facts👍. When is the Thameslink episode coming out❓
Tonight 😃 Had to cover a shift last minute and want to make some quick amends and then it will go out to the masses 💪
Cool, I can’t wait😄
Do you have an estimated time❓
@@BoomTrainspots 10pm!
my local operator lol. It’s weird how govia owns southern and southeastern, yet southeastern is so much better
Cheers NK! Indeed, Govia’s portfolio is quite varied in terms of different brands and services and also in terms of passenger satisfaction it seems. I’ve nothing against them personally, but I don’t think the rebrand to ‘Southern’ to hark back to the old days has worked as well as the gWr rebrand for instance. Interesting. You’ll enjoy the next video in this series by the way, watch this space.
@@trainsonthebrain just did! love the Thames link video and thx for the explanation
I hear GTR has some of the worst ratings on google reviews...
The Southern Railway next please!!
Thanks Jake, on my to do list!
At 3.46 was it my ears or did you say Dartmouth instead of Dartford ?!!!. Might just be me, getting old ha ha. Thoroughly enjoyed this video about trains in my part of the UK. 👍
Think you might be right, good spot. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
3:35 dartmouth? i had no idea they ran that far 😂
Hadn't you heard? New long distance excursions 😂 ...
Correction the 508s weren't scrapped, they went back to Liverpool
my island got 3 cart units of the class 375's
Southeastern is definitely my favourite TOC
Thanks pal, rapidly becoming mine too!
Same
Reason: Because it has the Class 465 and your local station is operated by Southeastern xD
CORRECTIONS 2*
*9:37 - for 27 years, 10% of their life has been used for their construction and 90% of it is for their service
Thanks Hyperhero. Lots of corrections/amendments to add to this one!
i love how theyre called classmates, also bombardier is pronounced bom-bard-ee-yay jjst to let you know
Well I just heard 101 “pingggs”
Love a good ping!
Nice
👍
@@trainsonthebrain your welcome
Bonus fact: The first few 707s have entered test runs on Southeastern.
The 'City Bean' train is a name, (plus with metro lines).
I personally think that Southeastern is the best train operator. With their trains being maintained properly and such great services.
Big fan 👍
Nice 😊
The two car BR Class 466 Networker can now only run coupled to the BR Class 465 Networker as they do not come up to the new disability standard of January 2021
Interesting, didn't know that. Thanks Ian!
I call the NSE livery "the toothpaste livery"
😂 Never thought of that, strong shout!
2:18 what about Ore station isn’t there one Southeastern train a day?
You might be right!

Quick question for you - How did you find this video? It has been exploding with new viewers recently so just curious 😃
I thought Southeastern is now owned by the government instead of Govia?
That’s right, Sean - this video was first put together in 2021 👍
Can you do southern or swr
On the to do list 🤗
Thank you
6:22
12-car*
Thanks Ben, will amend in the description!
6:24 12 Car Trains. Not 10
You’re quite correct Owen, thanks for flagging that. Moment of madness from me there! I’ll add this as a correction in the description. Thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed the rest of the video 👍
@@trainsonthebrain You're welcome. Cheers XD.
Southeastern would correct you in the first 30 secs xD They prefer "South-Eastern High-Speed" xD
Nevermind! Thanks for watching 👍
420 likes😳😳😳
Can't grumble at that.
It’s lasted to 2021
May need to do a follow up to this video - lots has changed!
@@trainsonthebrainmaybe do it in 2023
I know the prices are going up yet again nothing new there then
Southeastern is dying :(
Worst run and most arrogant rail operator in Britain.
…Great video though at least! 😅
