What an amazing gesture to someone who's so informative, positive and seems so popular in the train network. I'm not a massive train fan, but love your vids, all the hidden facts, different routes, and you're always happy and get on with the different rail companies employees! Congrats on the certificate, trophy and 100k subs - although as i type this it's on 103k lol. Would love to bump into you one day and shake your hand and say well done on your awesome knowledge! Congrats Geoff.
A well deserved 100k. Your videos are very clearly thought-out, creatively edited, very entertaining and very informative. You ARE the TH-cam UK rail guy!
So theres 99.999 others like me. Train nerds. I live in Northampton, I allwas go on British Rail, tubes, or the like, but I LOVE all your videoes, about abandoned stations, least passenger stops, the all stops on the tube challenge, and everything in between. I know more about the stations in all over Britain than in my country. Thank you, Geoff, for your marvelous content!
Been a fan since you had just over 2,000 subscribers. Your channel has become a place of gathering for transport nerds from the world all over, and I'm not sure you're aware of the massive positive influence you've had on people. Congratulations on 100K!
A huge congrats Geoff. I honestly got emotional watching you receive this award. I am a Canadian who fell in love with the Underground when I first visited London in 1987. When my mom was still alive she took me everywhere on the Underground and on NSE from Manor Park (my aunt's local stop). I havent visited since 2002, but your videos which I have watched (repeatedly) since 2013 are entertaining and informative. You are living one of my dreams and watching your channel grow shows what passion and persistence can do. Extremely proud of you. Many regards from your fanbase in Canada.
Congratulations, Geoff. You are certainly unique as a subject specialist. An expert deserving the attention. Love the last piece of editing to close up the film. 👍
Massive congratulations to you on 100k!!!!!! You have spent years working on youtube and you really deserve it for all the great content you deliver! Here is to another 100k!
Gosh, I don't think I'd be the same person I am today without you Geoff. I have been obsessed with railways ever since I was 10, and here we are 6 years later, still the same rail enthusiast I am. I live in Dubai, where all we have is the Dubai Metro & Tram, and I love it whenever I go to London and see a large network of railways with a long history. I now have a determined future which I wouldn't ever have thought of. Thank you Geoff for being the person you are. Congratulations on reaching a hundred thousand subscribers, it is a very big accomplishment to have such a huge fan base, and I hope to see you reach one million soon.
I legitimately cried when you got the trophy and certificate. So deserved in my opinion. Also great music in this video, really captured the sense of amazement created by new trains!!!
Your TH-cam channel is so fascinating and I've learnt quite a lot in the last year and a half from your TH-cam channels and Londonist videos. Congratulations on your 100k subscribers. Cheers and good luck for the future.
Great news that you reached the 100k mark. Thanks for providing your videos and insights into the workings of the railway system around the UK. Completed a return journey for the first time through The Canal Tunnels en-route to Alexandra Palace via Finsbury Park great addition to the Thamslink network
Thanks Geoff, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers. I always look forward to receiving a notification that you have posted something new.
Congratulations Geoff, you're an excellent spokesperson for our community and we're very lucky to have you! On a side note, I've always thought that part of Moorgate looks more like a Paris Metro station than a London Underground station
Well done & congratulations on achieving the 100,000 subscribers milestone. I've enjoyed every one of your videos, and feel well-informed on the workings of the Underground thanks to your time & effort.
Congratulations! Your channel is so great everyone should have subscribed long ago. You get to go where the lucky few do and share the experience, Thankyou and Congrats!
Congratulations! The Tube was still using these tunnels in the 1970's. I moved to London in 1973 and used that line until it closed before the link being made between Finsbury Park and Drayton Park for the new overhead/third rail service. I then used the new service from the day that it opened travelling from Harringey to Old Street daily. I last used this train yesterday, so I've used it for most of these 40 year old units lives. Looking forward to using the new rolling stock, though I doubt that I'll live to see the next incarnation in another 40 years time!
First view! Filmed on my birthday! Congrats Geoff! Hey Geoff, I'm fifteen and I'm doing tube challenge soon! Like this post of you want Geoff to do it with me! PLEASE!
I was on that train (I believe it was 707012), but it was around the afternoon, I was very lucky to catch that train as I had literally no idea that they were doing test trips. EDIT: CONGRATS ON 100K, WELL DONE!!!
Firstly, congrats Geoff on the 100k subs! However, I'll be very surprised if this switch from old to new stock goes without major hitches. After GTR's disastrous time table fiasco of last year, I'm afraid I wouldn't trust GTR as far as I could throw them - which is not very far! Be prepared for more of the "The next train has been cancelled due to a member of staff not being available" announcements!! (the lamest excuse in the history of lame excuses). I really really hope I'm proved wrong. On this line (I live in Hornsey) we deserve a franchise fit for purpose for the 20th century. Come on GTR - please get your act together! I'll stop ranting now.....
I was a late comer to the party and only found your channel recently. Brilliant videos that are most informative and presented in such a way that you dont get bored and eagerly anticipate the notification telling you a new vid has been uploaded.... congrats on your award. 😊
Brilliant video! I'm looking forward to my first trip on a class 717 but I'll be sad to see the class 313s go! Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers! :)
Congratulations Geoff with the certificate, trophy and the soon to be received 100k TH-cam award! I'm still amazed by the long train stopping at the platforms that are too short. That such a British thing! And it will never happen here in the Netherlands. The train and the platform have to match otherwise the train will not stop. I'm not even sure it's even possible to unlock the doors partially in any Dutch train series or than by hand.
5:18 "Part of the Northern Line until the 1950's". Isn't that supposed to be "common knowledge" (let alone professional knowledge) that it was part of the Northern until 1976 (as even the Moorgate tube crash occured there in 1975)
The Great Northern & City Line might have been run as part of the Northern Line, but the size of the tunnels are totally different. It's a real shame that the Northern Heights plan got scrapped: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_line#Great_Northern_&_City_Railway I'd like to see TfL have a *new* Northern Heights plan, with the underground stations on the Northern City Line all made longer and the Moorgate tunnels moved, so that the tunnels can extend south to Bank, Canon Street, across the Thames to London Bridge and off to somewhere useful in South East London.
It was always intended that Moorgate would be linked to Finsbury Park using tunnels that were bored to accommodate standard gauge trains. However, the branch was operated by London Underground using tube stock, instead and formed the City Branch of the Northern Line. As someone who lived in the Essex Road area, I was a frequent user of the tube from this station and can well remember the large stations from, what seemed, another era and the seemingly diminutive trains.The tunnels between Drayton Park and Finsbury Park were closed in the mid 60's as part of the Victorial Line works and the GN platforms were adopted for use by southbound Piccadilly/Victoria Line trains. The tunnel portals at Drayton Park were clearly visible from the station platforms for many years subsequently. The rest of the branch was temporarily closed in 1975 prior to intoduction of the Great Nothern Electric service in 1976. The re-opening of the branch and introduction of the new service finally brought about the original vision for the line - running trains from the City into the northern London suburbs.
When it was originally constructed in the 1900s, the rail company that built it wanted to build a rail line that would come right into the City of London from Hertfordshire. They had a partnership with the LNER, or it's predecessor, to run services beyond Finsbury Park. But after the City of London objected to the plan to bring a large, although underground, station into the heart of the Square Mile (so the route was truncated at Moorgate), the other rail company backed out and it just became a short line between Finsbury Park to Moorgate, which then got taken over by the Metropolitan Railway. It then became a Metropolitan Line branch after 1933, with Metropolitan Line rail stock. It then got transferred to the Northern Line with the Northern Heights extension plan, with Standard Tube stock and that got swapped for 1938 stock before the line was transferred over to British Rail.
Does that mean that the Seaford to Brighton line is now the most archaic rolling stock in Mainland England? They are still running 313's to the best of my knowledge (could be wrong as I'm running on third hand information)
Yes, they are still running on the Coastway service. They were refurbished so don't look nearly as shabby as the GN stock. No plans to replace them anytime soon.
I believe that you might be getting that 100,000 subscriber play button from TH-cam soon alongside the rewards that you have received from GTR to go with it. Such a stunning event to be invited in for the occasion and keep it up!
I don't really like the Siemens Desiro City trains. I prefer Bombardier Aventra Class 345 (#PurpleTrain), Stadler FLIRT Class 755 (new trains for Great Eastern Main Line) and CAF Civity Class 331 (new trains for the north)
New trains are on order, but in their usual way the RMT are protesting about the guard situation. If I recall rightly the Victoria line in London hasn't had guards from day one, causing no fatalities.
'Hardly used'? These are rammed in rush hour, when a minor problem leaves stations packed because trains cannot clear them fast enough, even when running as frequently as possible. I understand Pacers are awful & used more heavily than designed but these should be replaced soon too.
@@Sonic_emperor Northern Rail's new trains should have started to enter service by now, but like the 717s, they are late. Shouldn't be long now though.
Congrats on your 100.000 subscribers Geoff! I have been watching your videos since I came to the UK, and find them very fun and informative. Keep up the good work!
Hate these trains, currently on the Bedford - St Pancras line. Seats are the most uncomfortable on the network and the hardest. There is no ventilation, the air con is too cold or too hot. No tables. They sway and bump harshly and make me feel nauseaus.
Congratulations! And the certificate is well earned. Without you, i might never have visited London. But i have and can't wait to come back in the future.

Strudlfaust true. The 313s were the first and only (before these new 717s) standard trains to go in the Moorgate tunnels
The Great Northern & City Line might have been run as part of the Northern Line, but the size of the tunnels are totally different.
It's a real shame that the Northern Heights plan got scrapped:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_line#Great_Northern_&_City_Railway
I'd like to see TfL have a *new* Northern Heights plan, with the underground stations on the Northern City Line all made longer and the Moorgate tunnels moved, so that the tunnels can extend south to Bank, Canon Street, across the Thames to London Bridge and off to somewhere useful in South East London.
Torjuz1337 the driver was distressed that the northern heights plan was dropped 20 years earlier so crashed? I don’t get that one
It was always intended that Moorgate would be linked to Finsbury Park using tunnels that were bored to accommodate standard gauge trains. However, the branch was operated by London Underground using tube stock, instead and formed the City Branch of the Northern Line. As someone who lived in the Essex Road area, I was a frequent user of the tube from this station and can well remember the large stations from, what seemed, another era and the seemingly diminutive trains.The tunnels between Drayton Park and Finsbury Park were closed in the mid 60's as part of the Victorial Line works and the GN platforms were adopted for use by southbound Piccadilly/Victoria Line trains.

3:30 I love being in the back of a long train and just watching the train snack in front of me. The simple pleasures of commuting.

Yes, they are still running on the Coastway service. They were refurbished so don't look nearly as shabby as the GN stock. No plans to replace them anytime soon.
I also saw a 313 today at Fratton. I think it was on the Portsmouth to Brighton service, but it was in the old blue BR livery!
its apparently been painted ready to go to a museum!
Merseyrail 507 stock?
TfL overground Enfield Town to Liverpool Street is also class 313 rolling stock but refurbished.
