The double header class 91 was absolutely insane with those tones and speed!
Wow... these are some speedsome catches! Keep the good work up mate!
That class 43 was amazingly fast! Awesome collection of trains. 🤗
i love this video especially the LNER AZUMA train with 10 coaches from york to King's cross departure sound, the class 91 from king's cross to leeds with it's amazing horn and the connection of class 387 king's cross to ely and class 800 Aberdeen
to king's cross

You forgot about the final HST 😅
@@RF_765 I will edit.
@@transitimprover Good 😁
I really like the Class 700s/717s, they look nice
I don't. They replaced arguably better trains ( 319 and 365) at least in terms of passenger comfort, good sounding traction motors and BR Nostalgia. Imo they should of kept the 365s and either modernised the 319s or they should of given the 700 better seats.
@@haroldotrotter9148 That is true, i do feel the only thing letting the 700s down is the seats and interior, as it looks more metro like while they are used on the intercity services. Though i do really miss the 365s, i will never miss the319s.
@@171trains I will definitely miss the 319s
@@haroldotrotter9148 I probably won't, as I used to have them on thameslink services and hearing them screech past my house, and then always breaking down, don't get me wrong they sound nice but I will always nickname them heinz beans because they are tin cans
Wait, do 700's have two types of traction motors? I've heard them make typical Desiro UFO sounds (like the 350, 444 and 450), but here it sounds more like a Hitachi.
Hi Still_Guns, since the 700s operate on both AC and DC, the under carriage electronics have to convert the DC to AC and as a result, the frequency of the sine wave converted is different to the 50Hz Overheads thus generating a slightly different sound. Another great question 😃
yeah. when they have no electrification they start to sound like class350,
450 and 444
@@OldShabzleaving When on third rail you mean.
I love this video.
Hi Harry, thanks for your kind words!
Awesome Video mate, big like from me
Thanks Wheels In Motion Media, I really appreciate your kind comments :)
Me too
I thought the York trains stopped there but the first train of the day was one bypassing
Hi N1TH, this was videoed on a weekend, maybe that’s the reason why there were no York stoppers?
@@StarlifeStudios Well All the other York/Lincoln trains stopped, its like that 700 at the end we already discussed, its the only one which doesn't stop
Good video
Hi Sam, Thanks for your kind comments. Im glad you enjoyed.
What happened with 700151 (9S37) at 11:30?
Why Did A Thameslink Class 700 Pass Through
I thought the Harrogate diagrams were supposed to be 10-cars that split at Leeds?
I’m not 100% about that Cactus. All I can say is that I know a lot of IEPs are short formed on LNER as well as it being a Saturday may have come into it. Thanks for your comment!
Stevenage
19:58 why did that 91 have a double loco on the front I saw that at hitchin I was really curious
Hi Rob, From what I got on the platform, 91111 had recently been repaired and was on test with 91106 for this day as insurance in case something went wrong.
@@StarlifeStudios ah ok now i know thanks
@@MrRobertecas It is at 9:58 not 19:58. Just pointing out an error.
9:15 Let's go round again
Hi Tesla404, Its the one and only!
What does timed to stop mean, it was scheduled to stop in Stevenage wasn't it
Hello N1TH Music. I assume your talking about the 700 at the end? Yes this should have stopped but ran fast for some reason. This is quite common on Thameslink to make up lost time. Thanks for watching :)
@@StarlifeStudios no problem I subscribed because this is high quality content and this is the first thing I've seen from you
I personally think it's wrong to skip stops to make up lost time because if I wanted to plan a journey and I wanted to take that train and it slipped my station because it was late I wouldn't be happy would I. And Stevenage is a big place maybe it could have skipped somewhere smaller instead
Thanks for subscribing! I’m really pleased you highlighted my content as high quality. I am striving to provide information on my videos so that my subscribers can look back at previous years and remember how things were. I think it’s wrong to skip stops as well, especially considering that that Thameslink service wasn’t that late.
@@n1thmusic229 also the services that run south of kings Cross ( Horsham to Peterborough or Brighton to Cambridge) don't stop in between stevenage and Finsbury Park. So it's not like if you wanted to go there but the train ran fast it would be quick to get back to Stevenage
