Hey friend, I'm from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I've had the dream of becoming a machinist since I was a child, and watching your videos this dream only increases.... Congratulations for the video..
Gee whizz,,thanks for releasing this video,normally i am not a lover of third rail routes,but that is one amazing stretch,,,,the London Rail System,,once again Thanks
What a hub!!! Train activity is "massive" in the beginning. Love this route to Brighton at an 80 mph clip on 3rd rails. Enjoyed the video very much, filmed in HD no less. Thanks a bunch. Nice train car designs btw..... Question: when the train gets the signal to move, notice that there are only 2 tracks leading into the hub, but also note that their appears to be construction to the right. Is that to be a 3rd track into the hub, for it seems that the 2 tracks are clearly inadequate given the amount of track activity leading into the hub?
...you can actually hear the driver comment on it as the train goes over the bridge, having been moaning about the extended (5+ minute) wait and how late the train is going to arrive. "Be so much better when they've put this second viaduct in here". So with any luck, it'll be at least 4 tracks total. Edit: In fact, here you go: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thameslink_Programme#Borough_Market_Viaduct
Well, good news, the construction of the second viaduct is finished now! And the train movement between Blackfriars and London Bridge is much smoother too :-)

what is wrong with the third-rail routes, just curious?
Thanks for the video, I used to live in Horley so this brings back memories of many years past. Enjoyed the video thanks.
There's a bit missing no East Croydon ? Although you see the train approaching with the tower blocks clearly visible then jump!

TahreyUK Thank you for that tidbit and the cite for reference. It's a logical action for expansion given the heavy train traffic into the hub.

très belle video, merci!
10mins waiting at a signal just outside Blackfriers but for some reason Croydon was cut?
Thanks a lot for this.
Do you have any of this kind of video for Southeastern mainline?
Greenting is from México
What was the red signal about?
Bedford to Brighton,
Via Gatwick Airport.
1:09:19 does anyone live in the castle above the tunnel?
They do
Not in the castle itself, but in that pink cottage above it, yes.
What's that abomination of a building ahead at 3':10"? 😳
Is you`re 319 in First Capitol Connect or Southern Livery?
What's with the 377 sat outside Blackfriars?
It's a 375 I think, since its southeasterns
Hi 🙏
Eevery time tjhe signals go to green the driver seems a bit slow off the mark. Normal ?
Wtf... BFR-LBG took 15 mins.........
BFK?
@@KasabianFan44 station code for London Blackfriars
@@TheWestAnglian
That’s BFR mate
@@KasabianFan44 I stand corrected
"London To Brighton in 78 minutes" ?
there is a cut in the footage
I assume this is on a class 317 or a 377
Pair of 319's (you can see in the platform mirrors) Ex-southern FCC
The video is jerky, keeps stopping and the download indicator reads 5 hours. I won't bother with this.
I had no problems with the video, did you report the jerkiness to youtube?
