Now that is a proper electric motor sound! People complain about electric cars, but they sound like this, manufacturers won't be getting any complaints from me! Great capture, put a smile on my face! 👍
They aren't cool (obviously the accelerating/decelerating is cool) but the noises between canary wharf and Waterloo are horrific and would give you ear damage if you used that section every day
I remember being in London in 2009 (I was ~5) and hearing this sound while travelling on the line. Hearing Wilbur Soot's song made me think of it, and I just had to check. Thank you for posting this video! I wonder why the Calgary C-Train motors don't make that noise, but it seems like so many other lines in the world do.
The nearest station to Buckingham Palace meant that Prince Philip had many evenings of being shoved into someone else's armpit while fighting his way home from royal engagements in rush hour.
0:01 The next station is Green Park, doors will open on the right hand side. Change for the Piccadilly and Victoria lines. Exit for Buckingham Palace. 0:31 This station is Green Park. Change here for the Piccadilly and Victoria lines. Exit here for Buckingham Palace. 0:43 This train terminates at Stanmore.
I'm so sorry that you only have 1 subscriber. I hope you reach bigger goals in the future. Anyway, I love the jubilee line and this is my favourite station on the Stamnore branch
Loudest things in the world: 3. Nuclear bomb 2. my dad's snores 1. THE LLOOOUD NOISE THAT HAPPENS WHEN THE JUBILEE LINE IS RACING THROUGH A TUNNEL (Like in north greenwich to canary wharf)
Too many of the Underground trains are so noisy. I don't know whether it's cost cutting on the trains front, or whether it's the actual tunnels themselves where cost cutting is apparent - through use of low grade or poorer quality tunnel insulation. Either way it's cost cutting rearing its head. It's the story of rail transport in the UK..... Whether sub surface or trains above ground. Bad decision making and overuse of poor quality materials has blighted Britain's trains for at least 40 years. Nevermind moving towards 'driverless' tube trains, what is more urgent in 2021 is that all new stock in the Underground has air conditioning as standard - this is what Londoners REALLY want, and rightly expect. And the noise levels in tunnels to be reduced - maybe by using better quality materials and insulation. Something that should have been done in the first place. The noise levels on Jubilee, and Victoria line trains are unacceptable. Perhaps TfL could or rather should address this.....aswell as fitting air conditioning to trains, which given our increasingly hotter summers, makes sense - it's a 'no brainer'; and it's time that air conditioning was no longer considered a 'luxury' on Underground trains. Regardless of the shortfall in revenue, it's something TfL need to give proper thought to. It's bus usage that is declining and shows little indication of going up again over the next decade. People are using taxis, trains or their own transport (car, bicycle, motorbike, e-scooter). All these mostly empty buses travelling around and clogging the roads. TfL need to divert more money away from buses and towards the London Underground.
I can see your argument. I agree with all your points (other than the noise the trains make - the tunnel noise is annoying but the actual sounds of the trains are satisfying in my humble opinion). I don’t think the points you have made make the underground unbearable, but they can certainly be improved.
All the new sub-surface trains have A/C. It’s the deep lines that can’t have it. The trains are too small for A/C to fit anywhere. The only place for equipment is the space under the centre bank of seating on each side. And that’s full of traction and control gear. The end bank space is filled with running gear, the bogies, motors, wheels/axles. There is no tunnel insulation. Never was, and there’s no room for it. Some of the loading gauge clearances are tiny. Plus, the tunnels get very hot on their own - add the heat of the train’s traction gear, and the tunnel’s hotter than the inside of the trains. A/C won’t work in those conditions. It removes the heat from the air you want to cool, and expels it. When the space you’re going to expel it to is already even hotter, it won’t work. The trains would end up drawing heat in from outside. Basic physics.
Its the tunnels themselves. Back in the day it was private companies who ran and bulit the tube. They built the tunnels smaller because thats cheaper and the tunnels echo the trains sounds which makes the situation far worse.

A tear comes to my eye every time I hear that noise. Amazing!
Get over yourself
a bit excessive

electric cars are bad and should be banned
If you wish to hear a real proper electric motor, look up acceleration of the Soviet ЭР1 and ЭР2 3KV DC EMU's
Love this! Thanks for making a video specially about the cool Jubilee Line noises!
No problem!

@@joejolliffe I go to Waterloo on that side, earphones go a long way to prevent the noise from hurting
I maybe a steam locomotive fanatic, but I LOVE the Jubilee line, and this is by far the most beautiful sound of any electric powered train.
Go to Vancouver and ride the MK1 Skytrain cars. Beautiful sounds 😊
I love the 1996 stocks epic motor sounds
Ditto!
I like the motor sound a lot, I keep rewatching this video again and again

I remember watching this a month ago when you only had 2 subs, I remember being ur 3rd subscriber, I come back and now you have 55! Keep it up!
Thank you so much!
No problem!
Up to 148 in a month, you're going to surge anytime soon!
@@FarmYardGaming This channel is an archive to show my kids-to-be, but if it blows up, that’s a bonus!
@@UndergroundEnthusiast make that 156. keep it up!

that’s very sad to hear!
I very much doubt Prince Philip ever took the tube.
He may have every once in a while
He is now sadly, permanently underground.

WTF
I was expecting it to say “Stratford”
Yeah when I ride it it normally is going toward Stratford!
@@UndergroundEnthusiastso you got on a train going the other way
Best sounding motors in the world
Yay, I got off there every day on my way from Stratford to Battersea. For about a year.
Those trains look so clean tho
That is the cleanest 1996 stock I’ve ever seen
Shanghai Trains such as 03A01 or 01A05 also have simillar sound because they are alstom motors
I'm so sorry that you only have 1 subscriber. I hope you reach bigger goals in the future. Anyway, I love the jubilee line and this is my favourite station on the Stamnore branch

Bro ride the central line
I hope I get to go to London some day just to ride the Jubilee Line...
The sound of the GTO thyristors...
Great video.☺️
Edit: I just subscribed to ur UA-cam channel.
Thanks!
@@UndergroundEnthusiast Ur welcome .☺
Iconic
I have been on the Jubilee Line and the 1996 Stock.
DAMN THESE DOORS OPEN AND CLOSE FAST
Best underground video ever
jubilee line - sound of the f1!
Is the famous sound the acceleration and deceleration noise?
Yes
If you have time listen to the Siemens C651 motor. My personal favourite
I find it funny that tourists on the train always keep their ears covered when we are turning. It's not really that loud tbf
The interior looks like the Victoria Line one
Good
wow jubilee
The train sound looks like singapore SMRT kawasaki nippon syron C151B
The 1996 stock was built before it.
what happened with green park walls
Not sure

@@Twittler1 I agree, most of the Underground’s heat is a build up for driver breaking anyway.
Its the tunnels themselves. Back in the day it was private companies who ran and bulit the tube. They built the tunnels smaller because thats cheaper and the tunnels echo the trains sounds which makes the situation far worse.
Like why is it famous I live in London and I still don't even know
People who hate the sound in the train👇
