A cracking example of just how difficult renewals and upgrades are on the existing network, and yet some think such work would provide the same new capacity as HS2.
Exactly this. What we have today are some of the oldest railway lines in the world pushed to their very limits. There's only so many upgrades we can make to the existing network before the inevitable conclusion that a new line is needed.

Its great how drones can just give so much better perspective of the scale of these jobs. Thanks for posting
Wow, so much going on here. Love love LOVE the shot of the Eurostar heading into St. Pancras. Thanks so much for the video!
I wasn’t expecting to see the Eurostar at that time! 👍
Proper Railway work… proud to be apart of the works to improve the services up at Elstree …
Fun Christmas game! Start the video at 2.30 and see who can spot the most "Notwork Rail" workers not working. Festive greetings everyone! JP
where is this, somewhere in Camden?
Camden I think though Islington border is close by.
Agar Grove and Murray st.with Camden Sq behind it.
Is it safe to fly a drone over a live track and a construction site?
Drone operators will argue that they are free to fly their sub-250g drones wherever they feel..!
Yes…with the mainline suspended it was an opportunity to send up the drone! Thanks for watching!
So where's the new bridge???
It’s stored in a side street, ready to go!
Where are the trains taking the old material away? Oh it's Christmas, let's use a bunch of lorries in those residential streets...
perhaps if all those seen doing nothing actually worked then it wouldnt take so long
amusing and wrong at the same time!
Lots of people doing nothing. It’s so British.
Wrong. Each person has a job to do. Just because you see someone standing still doesn’t mean he’s not engaged with the process.
progress ! thank you for covering this infrastructure upgrade.
It was interesting to see what was going on and looking at the old deck its clear why replacement was needed!
