  • Amazing Street Performers & London Transport Museum - Covent Garden
    On my way to London Transport Museum - watching some amazing street performers along the way.
    London have some of the best street performers and today was no exception
    Once I arrived at the London Transport Museum, it was great to walk around and capture the entire history of transport in the city of London
    Enjoying a delicious gelato ice cream to finish off the day

    Yet another gem again Dazza... Great to see London opening up again, fingers crossed it stays that way. Brilliant coverage of the transport museum. Mindblowing workmanship that went into the making of the transportation vehicles and carriages in those days. I'd love to go back and see what it was like.. 👀 Till the next one matey. 👍👍👍🚂🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌

    I love Steam Trains they have a magic about them like no other form of private or public transport.
    Thank you Darren for showing us the Museum dedicated to them and the other forms of transport around London.

    Another great upload Darren, thanks for sharing. Spent a lot of my time in the '80's in London and have some fantastic memories. It's changed, but so has everywhere. It's so full of history and so vibrant, has a unique atmosphere. Mainly come down on business now, I'm in York which has history & culture but London is in a different league...I'm in my late 50's but still get a buzz when I get off the train at Kings Cross, my favourite City.

    In 2021 the population of London was 9.3 million. I remember the steam trains in the 1950s. My father would take me on them from Liverpool Street Station. We would go to Southend for the day and I would eat lots of sugary peppermint rock that had Southend written all the way through it.

    Hey there DJ! What an awesome Vlog! You bring something new and fresh each time. Love the street buskers though I’m always fascinated with the silver floating guy staying up there all day and still too. The museum is fabulous! Always brings lumps to throat looking back at history when and imagining it then for London folk. I get that just walking around our local Bury transport and Fusiliers museum too. So much nostalgia and facts in history. Love the music by the way. It’s so calming the playing while you wander around. OFF THE CHARTS as always Dazza. Keep em comin 😀👍🏻👍🏻

    Great update fella, blimey the last time I went up to London (from the West Sussex coast) and used a tube was in the early 80's and I remember the wooden floors. We have been to the smoke a few times since to see a few shows however that was by coach as driving up there and parking is not an option. 👍

    The population of London today from the government figures is about 9,5 million the true numbers is anyone’s guess. Compare that to the population of Paris at 2,2 million and that gives you a rough idea just how over populated we are .

    I'm into transport so what I did a few years ago was do a 2 day event and went to the transport museum in London one day then the next day I went up to York to see the railway museum, you need 2 days because you can easily spend a day in each, I'd love to do it again because like I said that was quite a few years ago now and things have changed at both of them now

    What a fascinating tour from the intrepid DJ..
    The Boy surprises everytime with the
    incredable content he brings to his subscribors,
    London has certainly changed since i worked at Liverpool st station hotel in 1976 on the renovations.
    Is Dirty Dicks still there Darren
    we used to frequent it most nights..
    Its also nice to see vlogs done in a calm manner which comes across in each vid, so Top Marks from Thailand and waiting my bell to sound for the next installment..
    The music in the background is just sublime in its simplicity and comes im sure with experience of a former crooner..
