Trains Have Changed Over 200 Years

- How would old-school trains stand up against the ones we have today? You might be surprised: the grandpappies of locomotives have their own victories!
For example, in 1862, the Pullman company started producing luxury sleeper cars. The cars had upholstered seats, carpeting, and lacquered wood. Beds were concealed behind overhead panels and folded down like luggage compartments. The Pullman company even manufactured private luxury cars. Basically, hotel suites on wheels!

SUMMARY:
- Rail cars were used in some parts of England as far back as the early 1500s. They were mostly for carrying coal or unrefined metals out of mines or onto ships.
- Built almost a century after the Locomotion No.1, the engine car of the Flying Scotsman is nearly 80 ft long and weighs over 100 tons.
- Diesel trains date back to the late 1800s, but only really started to come into their own in the 1950s.
- Diesel trains are also much more efficient than their steam predecessors. Steam engines burn coal or wood to boil water.
- The excess steam also needed to be released when the train arrived, which meant so much built-up energy going to waste.
- In the 1930s, a typical steam train could spend as much as 65% of its time offline for maintenance.
- One of the fastest trains operating today is the SNCF TGV POS.
- Electric trains only need the motor that turns the wheels. Since they get all their power from the electrical grid, they also don’t need to worry about carrying the weight of fuel.
- Then there are maglev trains, which use magnets to hover (or levitate) above the tracks. Futuristic, fast, and quiet, they have all the benefits of conventional electric trains.
- As of 2019, the fastest train in the world is the SCMaglev, which can reach an incredible maximum speed of 375 mph.
- The problem is that maglev trains can't run on regular tracks. An entirely new rail system must be built for them, and that comes with a hefty price tag.
- Modern train cars are still much safer and more comfortable than anything from the 19th century.
- The seats on modern passenger trains are similar to the ones on many airliners. The difference is that they don't need seatbelts, and you're free to get up and walk around whenever you feel like it.

Which trains do you think look cooler, old or modern ones? :)
Old
Old, and steam engines also burned oil
Old
Modern
BRIGHT SIDE I think old steam trains.
It was not the Flying Scotsman used in Harry Potter for the Hogwarts Express. It was a GWR 4900 Class 5972 Olton Hall
Ikr
Your are so right for real!
And it was originally meant to be Taw Valley 34027 but it looked "too modern". It still hauled all the coaches for the interior scenes though.
DanH I heard that for the interiors were just one cabin and hall, with the window a green screen.
Yes they aren't even the same class
0:40 Locomotion No1 was indeed the first loco' to haul a passenger train on a public railway but steam had been in use on colliery wagonways for some years some of which were surprisingly extensive systems with over 100 miles of track.
1:00 Flying Scotsman is about 70' long including her tender. She was not the locomotive used in the Harry Potter films- that was GWR Hall class number 5972 Olton Hall.
1:35 Diesel trains were setting speed records in the inter war years. Both the Burlington Zephyr in the US and the Fleigender Hamburger in Germany (the Hamburg Flyer or, to the delight of English speaking children ever since, the Flying Hamburger) were successful high speed regular services run by streamlined Diesels. Sir Nigel Gresley who had designed the A1 (including Flying Scotsman) and A3 Pacific express passenger loco's seriously considered Diesel traction but decided it was not sufficiently developed (both the Zephyr and the Hamburger were lightweigh railcar units that couldn't carry even 100 passengers) and made the A4 Pacific instead- a streamlined development of the A3.
3:10 The TGV is only so fast because it runs on a network of new lines built as straight and level as possible. Not knocking it but it's a fairly conventional train which solves the problems inherent in higher speeds by burying them under a mountain of money. (Is that a TGV by the way? Doesn't look like one.)
4:25 Ha ha... The Shildon to Newport line near me (some of which follows the route of the Stockton and Darlington Railway) was electrified starting in 1914! Obviously this was quite experimental and, after the Great War, there was neither the money nor the will to extend and advance electrification. By the 1930 some of the infrastructure was falling to bits and the options were to replace it or removed it- it was removed and the Newport line became the only railway to be converted from electric to steam traction.
ty for corrrecting all this dribble
And the "tgv" in the video isn't a tgv as well
That "TGV" is actually a british class 395 with a spanish livery. This video is triggering me
I agree
@@Artomotive your telling me
3:28- that train looks more like a class 395, rather than a TGV.
It is a Class 395 in Renfe livery. Not 800.
No class 395
Vehicles With Jacob ok, I’ll edit my comment
Deffinatly
elms vale junction *definately
3:26 that’s British rail class 395 in Renfe livery
Yeah...
Yeah i agree
There not exactly br (British rail) as they were long gone before there introduction
And those things reached 157mph (140 in service). Not very blistering, I wouldn't say.
Agree lol
The Flying Scotsman LOCOMOTIVE didn't appear in Harry Potter.
it was a castle class
It was a Hall class.
It was a Castle Class that appeared
@@Admre hall class
I thought That too
When non railfans try to give a history lesson on trains. This was poorly researched. It's almost to the point of being clickbait.
F1RailFan 1995 calm down
@@textiles9562 Who says I wrote that while not calm? Tired maybe be but definitely calm.
Your right, this was poorly researched😂
I definitely agree!

There are so many inaccuracies in this video
Taiwan got the train design from the Japanese Shinkansen (bullet train), and now we can cross the whole island in a short time. The first time I rode that, I was looking around the train car thinking "How can you sleep? This is f..ing AWESOME!!!!" 290+ km/hr. The viaducts are designed so that in curves, you never feel any sideways force. It's awesome!!!! Most people sleep or play with their phones, but I want to look out the window. However, anything you see is gone in one second. Never a bump, it's the smoothest train experience ever! You will cross the freeway sometimes and look down and think those cars are slow like ants. (In Taiwan, it's called HSR or 'high speed rail'.) Never disappointed me ever!

*and italy
Flying Scotsman as the hogwarts express, might want to check that again considering the flying Scotsman was built on the near polar opposite of the great western railway, much less the class of olton hall 5972
Here's a corny joke.
A barber asked a train engineer how many times his train had derailed. He said, “I’m not sure, it’s hard to keep track.”
Actually the first steam locomotive that was ever built was in 1802, it was built by Richard Trevithick for a industrial railway in the United Kingdom, and the Flying Scotsman was not in the Harry Potter series that was Great Western No. 5972 “Olton Hall” which is a 4-6-0 not a 4-6-2 A3 pacific
There are oil fired steam engines and they are more common in America.
did you gust call it a "engine car?" i am triggered.
thomas the tank dank oh Boy i thought That too
Ikr
So am i
Same
Just**
This man didnt even mention that the Flying Scotsmon was the 1st locomotive to officially reach 100 MPH
He didnt even mention the A4 Mallard the fastest steam locomotive in the world with a top speed of 126 MPH.
DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED WITH THOMAS AND FRIENDS!!!! LOL!!!
Yeah but the flying scotsman is the first steam loco to reach 100 MPH but it would be better mention on of the A4s especially Mallard or Sir Nigel Gresly
The mallard it quicker than the class 43 HST normal service speed
SL D51 City of Truro has unofficially went at 102 mph, but it is unfair to count it to a few Scotsman fans. If you count locomotives, then count the ones that have official records.
Wasn’t City of Turo the first one? Correct me if I’m wrong
The title”Trains have changed for 200 years”
Literally skips 100 years in 1 minute
Incorrect facts; first train was in 1804, and traveled a couple miles. The top speed of it was 5 mph, and hauled iron from an ironworks inland to a canal.
The engine was made from wood and didn't have any brakes correct?
bombituico half of what you said was correct. It was made of iron, like most engines. It didn’t have brakes like you said, but if you look at the locomotive you’d think it was a set of clock gears!
@@jackhromadka6842 oh okay cause to me it looked like it had a metal boiler and wood exterior or something
Anyways thx for the info
bombituico no problem! Happy to help
@@bombituico It was actually metal (I think) but it did have no brakes!
3:14 THAT’S NOT AN SNCF TGV POS, THAT’S A BRITISH RAIL CLASS 395 “JAVELIN”!!!
The electric train is a mix of a British Rail class 395 javellin operated by Southeastern and a mix of a Spanish Renefe AVE talgo
spot on
Flying Scotsman are character in Thomas and friends and brother of Gordon 😂
Thats insane how much has changed in just such a short amount of time.. imagine the day that we can just teleport 😳

DID YOU JUST CALL IT A GARAGE
I’LL HAVE YOU KNOW IT’S CALLED A MOTIVE POWER DEPOT
I just called it an engine shed
Or just a depot.
...Old trains look MORE romantic : )
And travel was civilized as well.
Diesel engines may not break down as much but when they do its a pain. A worker on the NYMR (north Yorkshire moors railway) said that a steamer could withstand a problem and make it home. But even a small problem in a diesel engine would come back to bite you
Took a train last year to attend a fan-convention, you got it the seats are very comfortable, even in the cheap seats, but it still took 35 hours to get there, and the restaurants and other amenities were only if you felt like spending an arm and a leg extra. Still, I wouldn't mind taking a trip on one of the old steam locomotives that still get around for people who want to learn about/experience the past.
Everything has changed alot, but schools have been the same.
Same boring stuff has always been taught
French schools are the same stuff but it gets worse every year
I like trains. I like their rhythm, and I like the freedom of being suspended between two places, all anxieties of purpose taken care of: for this moment I know where I am going 🚄🚄🚅🚅
this video triggers me as a trainspotter
the "TGV POS" is literally a class 395 javelin but recoloured into RENFE livery
Yeah it is i realised that on the thumbnail because the things stick out at the side. Southeastern
that's the first thing you realised? Ok then
@@LP_LP_LP_LP Yeah thats how i know its a 395
Its a not even related to the TGV. Wouldve made a bit more sense if he said AVE S102 or something thats not a TGV bc thats french
Also hi
Have a good day
Thomas the train: chooo chooo yo fans say boo

What?
Dey have no face

The ‘InterCity 125s’ are BR class 43 motor cars, and Mark 3 coaching stock.
Brightside is the best :D
This video has so much false info regarding the trains not being the trains hes talking about and stuff
Such as Locomotion wasn’t the first train to run on a railway, Richard Trevithick’s “Tram Engine” was the actual one
Many wrong info and goofs in this video, hardcore trainfans should take it with a grain of salt
BrEdface we meet again
@@tescotrain what about
The Acela express for amtrack is the fastest and best train you can find in America. And mostly over British because there is one train that is in the UK that goes about 1 mph faster than Acela
1:51 as known as a class 43
But mostly known as 125
The fastest steam engine came up to 126 and it’s a mallard.
Talking about SNCF TGV POS and showing Renfe Talgo (╥﹏╥) That's something a Ferroequinologist can't ignore
This is the most incorrect thing I have ever seen.
Jtl (just to let) u know LE SIDE RODS DONT MOVE (tRiGeReD)
Yeah
The flying Scotsman in Harry potter?? Your having a laugh 😂😂
2:22 Trainz sound effect lol
Most powerful locomotive ever created was the Gas Turbines from Union Pacific rated at 8500 hp, that record has never been beaten to this day.
In this video you can see all of Thomas's old and new friends
In this comment, you can see someone completely ignorant on the railways.
@@ben.taylor ???
3:26
It is a British Rail Class 395 train for the company "Renfe" and the name means: National Network of Spanish Railways. It can go up to 139,809 mph / 225 Kmh, but normal only up to 99,419 mph / 160Kmh.
Edit: This train model looks a bit like the "Renfe Ave S-103" series but the front of this model is more rounded and not so "peaked".
Javelin operates up to 225 km/h on High Speed 1 between London and Ashford and it' normal operation
@@pelativeeeee190 It's normally on the route to St. Pancras on the SEML/HS1
Too many inaccuracies to count as usual. Put in more effort.
This is fantastic! I love old trains.

Flying Scotsman: “you got my appearance wrong I was in the railway series and Thomas the Tank engine the tv series”
Gordon: “Indeed brother, imagine being so uneducated that mistake the hog warts express for The Flying Scotsman”

@@nmuniz2 Duck: "ahem.... Do you mean......

1:05 The steam engine 4472 never appears in Harry Potter. The Flying Scotsman train can be seen briefly at King's Cross St. Pancras in the form as a modern day DMU. The red locomotive they all get on is a GWR Hall class.
Yep or the Jacobite!
Aka London kings Cross.
I Like Trains, *TRAIN HITS ME*
Still safer then cars or planes
Electric trains may be faster and more efficient, but nothing beats the classic sound of 180 pounds of pressure running through the cylinders of The Flying Scotsman.
In my country, it is full of limits. We cannot go even 130 km/h!

You ment “low quality”?
The locomotive used in the Harry potter films was 4-6-0 Hall class #5972 "Olton Hall" not the flying scotsman.
They’re too much alike then
The fact that he didn't mention the Famous A1 Pacific's was kind of for me
"Man In Black" Johny Cash loved trains, mostly steam locomotives. R.I.P. Johny.
I’ve seen the flying Scotsman and mallard even the tornado and I’m going on tornado in premium class

It’s the TGV that mostly having fully double decker cars.
And the train that people is seeing here is the British’s Class 395 javelin.
So Bright side u have been out smarted by a train fan
At least do your research brightside. I commute on those every day
Anyways I know our Indian Railways is one of the best public sector corporation and railway industry. Although we can't having so much of high speed trains, we still have luxury trains like Maharaja Express, Golden Chariot etc... Also, as far as Mumbai's local train services are concerned then they are best but the only problem is that more than 3 million people uses it and it's not enough for them. However just because of corruption the INDIAN RAILWAYS have not grown but they are still doing their best!!!!! ❤❤❤💞💞😉😉😉😍😍😍

British Rail Class 395 in Renfe livery is kinda cursed
first
COOL VIDEO!
Cool video
There’s a part you missed out on. In the 1960s, the double decker rail cars were introduced
The Chicago Metra still has and uses some Pullman Gallery cars built in the 1950s. They had sold some of those cars to commuter rails in Maryland and Virginia. These Gallery cars have upstairs seats which you can see below, hence the name gallery cars. But the Virginia Railway Express commuter train has bought brand new Gallery cars which are based on the same design as the old cars but are much nicer and comfortable with modern technology. These cars come with bathrooms.
Flying Scotsman is a Thomas and friends character
I LOVE TRAINS!😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ UK, Japan, France and more
They used the class 395 for the electric train
Dude, our country has the world's largest railway system

I like those light rails that are lifted off the ground
