- A quick succession of pendos, voyagers, and the pretendolino going full pelt through Berkhamstead, with the pendos displaying their tilt to the extreme!
Best seen in HD, unless you have a shit laptop (like me), in that case I would make do with what you get :) - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Wow you really see the tilt here.
If you inside you feel those body turning
personally I think turning the camera really captures the tilt even more but these are still some great shots

I love how in the distance, the train is going forwards, and after the virgin train passes, it runs the other way.
Hahaha different trains pal!
@@mixmam1 I was making a joke based on the coincidental timing of two trains

@@mixmam1 thats not the correct way to promote your channel. Also, wubbles was sarcastic, so you attacked the guy defending you, which is also kinda strange.
Lets just have a moment of silence for the pretendolino ...
Edit in 2021: boy that's alot of silence

It may be blind chance, but when they were overhauling the set and doing the repaint at Wabtec or Marcroft (can't remember because we used both for some of our work, and Marcroft did the Grand Central Mk 3's) I actually nicknamed it the Pretendolino and have heard that used many times since. To cap it all, I was on the first paying run to Euston and the set had a loco fail at MKC, so we ended up being detrained and sardined onto a Dusty-bin for the rest of the journey
Dude that tilt is crazy holy crap
0:09 I love the sound of the Voyager
Vomiters sound better from the outside than sitting inside.
Me ChangesOneTim I know it is fantastic. I could re-watch that clip over and over
@KK D WHY ?
Good to see British Rail 1980s technology at work !!
ALAN SAWYER *COUGH* pacers still there *COUGH*
ALAN SAWYER Well people complain that Mordern UK trains are bad. Including the flirt a european train that you can see over 10 countries. there just want old trains than new ones
If you mean the APT well yeah that's long gone. The pendolino was built in 2001
@@hi24x The tilting mechanism on the Pendolinos trace back to British Rails' APT...
@@SimulationNetwork created by brits. finished off by the italians
I caught the Pretendolino a few times during its stint on the GEML in 2015-2016. The declassified first class in the middle was its best kept secret
Why?
When you know you live in a train St that's not important.
Beautiful trains with terrific speed
no matter how many you see at 125 its still impressive. recall one hst at didcot..had butterfles at is got nearer...sucks the breathe out of you...amazing.
1080p in 2012 with a great quality camera - doing the impossible
Treni velocissimi complimenti per le riprese in curva fanno un bel effetto bravo
Very fast trains for the cornering shots make a good effect
Nice Catch With The Class 90 At The End.
You never notice how much it tilts until you SEE the tilt
I suppose thats the point! Goes to show they did their job well 👏
Ive been on the route to London Euston and you can barely feel it sometimes! I had a full English breakfast on there once and not a tad bit of movement from my plate! perfect train!
@@DanielJacksonMusicthat was the main objective
Sadly the reported foul smell of the cabin, coupled with motion sickness from many passengers doomed the tilting trains to the history books.
love the speed of the tilting train pendolino
Great footage, what a crazy tilt! Good spot.
Thanks mate!
Beautiful videos
Tilting trains are fantastic
Good, tight rapid-fire compilation (and with no zoom use, thankfully). This is how trains-at-speed videos ought to be done------"Hot Trains thru the City".
Thank you!
I remember reading they were going to look at the possibility of using some of the pendolino fleet on the ecml , but virgin refused the request , they'd have been perfect on the ecml
The voyagers sound amazing going past
Those trains are really going !
They do a reasonable job, and have cut 40 minutes on the journey time from Carlisle to London, but I find in standard class, the Pendolinos have a poor view out of the window and the seats are quite hard. First class looks quite nice with the lamps at each table and the deep tinted glass, but not rich enough or have a concessionary card to use it.
Cries of nostalgia
Amazing video!:) The class 390 is my favourite train and I love high soeed tilting shots!:D What camera do you use?
Thanks! This was a Canon Powershot digital camera (can't remember what type though) :)
Superb video
0:09 I think that's instant death

They could have made more of the tilting technology I think. But they never managed to get the high maintenance cost down. Really a great pity especially for the UK where there are (almost) no dedicated high speed lines without those sharp angled curves. In the meantime the new generation of high speed trains all all non-tilting and most of the class 221 tilting diesels got their tilting equipment removed. I still wonder if it wouldn't be worth it to invest in a new development program for a more economic type of tilting trains for the UK. Of course now that HS2 is on the horizon they will probably do away with tilting trains entirely. Just to be clear: Don't get me wrong, I'm all FOR HighSpeed2.
Deadly aggressive Actions
I used to work in the booking office there.

and Lord that tilt tho

In North Wales we have Super Voyagers operated by Avanti West Coast
amazing
Smooooooooooooth Swooshing!
I wish i can travel on the Pretendolino too :DDDDD
When you build the worlds first proper railway network unfortunately as technology progresses you find yourself in a tricky situation not being able to match the big speeds now available and not having the money to straighten things out.
We haven't really advanced much in rail transportation in the UK the InterCity125 could go 143mph and that was 46 years ago in 1973.
Carl Davies 148*
I mean we can get to Paris in 2h15 at 186mph I would call that progress
@@ala0284 the French have been enjoying 200mph train travel since 1981, the 186mph figure you mention is only on the French side of the water.
@@tommullen2958 Nonsense, HS1 is 186 mph.
@@garthhentley5957 not on the UK side of the water it doesn't, check your facts.
Ah the Pretenolino pretty sure that was after the Real pendolino that crashed up north.
What's the difference between the 9 car and 11 car (electric) ones? Do they use the longer ones on certain lines or routes?
Maxim Del Mar they intended to only extend half of the fleet.
Andrew Duffin no it just depends on whatever train is available.
The Birmingham and Manchester services are busier than the Liverpool and Glasgow services. Also peak hour trains tend to have more cars even on the latter.
So, that's 200km/h with grade crossings. Fingers crossed.
From inside one could watch the train twist and turn and lean like a motorbike, as it scorched up or down the Lune Gorge, past the Howgill Fells, Shap and Tebay.
Love that section passing through the lakes
Really comfy train to travel on... are they still in operation? and are they still tilting. not got on a train in years
They are very much still in operation and tilting as much as ever! Although not run by Virgin anymore. Avanti West Coast took over the franchise around 4 years ago, and are running the same fleet of trains, although they have heavily refurbished them. No plans to replace them anytime soon!
@@mixmam1 Nice1
The second one isn’t a pendo. It’s a pair of 221 voyagers.
I wrote "A quick succession of Pendos and Voyagers" in the description :)
Play it back a 2x speed, even more impressive ! What a train, what happened to them.
They’re still running at full tilt up and down this line every day :)
Nice 👌🏻
Not a patch on a Valenta
The railroad 🛤 is cross looks fear.
Nice!!!!
A quanto vanno in quella mega curva?
How long is that mega curve?
Treni Mister Jazz idk. Ask alstom about it. They've create pendolino
So fast! Aaarrrgghh!
0:17 Virgin Trains 208 km/h
Vicente Manns actually 200kmh for 125mph
@@itzroblox_games6262 I'm assume he did some maths, and that mathematically speaking it was doing 207kph instead of 200kph, maybe anyway
Rip his ears
I did see tilt virgin trains but I luke being on trains
storm speed
I swear it’s only 110mph through Berkhamstead?
You may be right! I think some restrictions may have come in since this was filmed... there's a definite speed restriction through Watford Junction now which I don't remember a decade ago when they used to gas it through!
Still not a big fan and while the old British Rail trains were at the end of their life by the turn of the century, the seats were very comfortable, the luggage space was better and they all carried a proper restaurant or buffet car. I know times have changed, but GWR have proved there is a market for a restaruant car and a chef preparing meals on a four hour journey.
That is fast
Alex P Ashton max speed of line is 135 sometimes
@@jackpez Nope doesn't exceed 125 anywhere in the UK, with the exception of HS1.
How fast is the 90 going around a 100?
Top speed for the 90 is 110 so I’d imagine close to that?
125mph
Virgin Trains a brand of Richard Branson.....
How fast are they?
Capable of 140mph but limited to 125mph.
@@mixmam1 i thougt it was faster
They should have just built more 220 series trains instead of 800 series trains. Change my mind.
Class 220 are absolute garbage and it’s ridiculous to run diesel trains under the wires.
ALL GONE NOW
The pendolino is still alive and well. Its the Voyagers that are going
@@hi24x he means virgin trains does not exist anymore
Producer _ . _
Ay umm...Pendos can do 140 mph so this ain't their max speed
Yes that is there top speed but in the uk they are restricted to 120 mph by law
Themystery 333 ll
DMHDTrains - Too the everywhere Without the safety speedlock it could do 165 mph
*125
RobotbeepTV no u r wrong
The pendoliino does 180
Nope, these trains’ max speed is 140.
Man! Shorten your dissolves between the 2 cuts. Long one's were a bit irritating.
Class 395 Max Speed 140 Mph
I’m aware of this, but they’re not allowed to go above 125mph so therefore this could be considered “full speed”.
Full Speed 140 MPH @@mixmam1
@@BestC30 I just said that they’re not allowed to go 140, as the Victorian signalling systems can’t cope with it, so therefore 125mph is the max speed for this line, therefore can be considered full speed!
Not comfortable and it feels weired when it tlits.
I love it when it tilts! You get a proper feel of speed when it does.
Bring Virgin Trains to NZ, pleeeeeaaaaassssssseeeeeeeeeee, our trains are shit
@MantisSZNYA2 buses take forever to go from a to b. 12 hours from Auckland to Wellington on the bus whereas if you have a fast train it will take you about 4hrs
Worse train service ever
