I did that but I chucked in an extra "Waterloo International" but my rules were as followed "Leave by national rail or tube and arrive by national rail or tube".
72 Stock are well known for opening their doors before the train stops, I almost fell out of one a few times when I was a little kid on a crowded service.
This would be interesting if you visited all 18 of them in alphabetical order, which would give you Blackfriars, Cannon Street, Charing Cross, City Thameslink, Euston, Fenchurch Street, Kings Cross, Liverpool Street, London Bridge, Marylebone, Moorgate, Old Street, Paddington, St Pancras, Vauxhall, Victoria, Waterloo and Waterloo East.
Really enjoyed this video. I think this would definitely be a good ‘alternative tube challenge’ to try and complete in the fastest time, although possibly with the rule of having to arrive or depart on a train that terminates there to save disagreements over what counts as artwork. Would also make it a lot harder for stations like St Pancras where most trains are long-distance, or Blackfriars where terminating services aren’t that regular.
I believe that it is wrong for you to have excluded Moorgate. No rule states that a Terminus has to be above ground. Just because it isn't as busy as any of the others does not mean that it isn't a place in London where trains come from outside of London to terminate; making it definitionally a terminus.
@@joshuaritchie3836 I can find no information on a reclassification, other than perhaps on GN's website that states it as a disabled access category C.
@@GWVillager well title the video i visited all category a stations instead of i visited all terminus stations. moorgate is officially a london terminus
@@Ro99I believe those are the codes to point the user to a specific entrance, so being on the lintel is basically a necessity (or else on the floor?). There’ll be other ones at other heights on the walls. I saw a video of someone trying it out and her phone clicked and read things out 3 or 4 times every time she moved it just a little bit, indicating there were codes absolutely everywhere. Some will be smaller than others.
Vienna used to have 4 North South East and West stations now we have only 2 because the new main station project connected south and east stations together.

I’m amazed it’s still allowed in all honesty.
Wow! Brought back so many good memories. Thanks.

That's a good idea, though it would significantly increase the time required.
Shame Liverpool Street Was closed as the original station building is really nice however (In my opinion) the NSE section is a little plain.
Westminster is one of my favourite tube stations
Congratulations! It is interesting to see the variety of terminal stations
They certainly all have their own character.

I would agree with you, but it’s not counted as category A by the DfT, so I left it out.
@@GWVillager The DfT have given Moorgate the category of E in 2011 which was changed.
@@GWVillager Well the information you were using is very much outdated becuase Moorgate is now a Category A station.

The busker at London Bridge is an artist, playing music which is art
That was my logic in including it.
3:35 those are to assist those people who are partially sighted or blind I think
Yes it would be for the App NaviLens which scans the code and provides information for people with vision impairments
Makes sense, though surely that's oddly high for something like that?
@@GWVillager yeah almost as if they just put it anywhere and called it a day without thinking about where it might be easy to use

@@GWVillager every time i have seen them they are high, i guess you can see it from many parts of the station, over crowd heads
Doesn't Paris also have St-Lazare, Montparnasse, and Austerlitz? (bringing the number to 6)
I think Euston should have a statue of Sir William Stanier just like Kings Cross has a statue of Sir Nigel Gresley
I always liked the approach to Charing Cross
(Going over the river)
It’s lovely yeah.
My favourite London terminus station has to be Fenchurch Street. And Liverpool Street is my 2nd favourite.
This is something you don’t see everyday
Well done you. Very nice videos. Okay, the Christmas Haribos songs are gone now but by the end of 2023. It will return.
Vienna used to have 4 North South East and West stations now we have only 2 because the new main station project connected south and east stations together.
Two Words: Well Done
You missed quite a few London terminal stations, Greenford, West Ealing, Chessington South, Hampton Court, Grove Park, Bromley North, Hayes & etc.
I was relying, as mentioned elsewhere, on the DfT's classifications rather than where trains actually terminate.
very cool👍
From Waterloo could you not have gone through either Vauxhall or Clapham Junction to get to Victoria
In theory, though on the day I did this Victoria’s Southern platforms were closed for engineering works.
There always used to be a shuttle bus between the two as well?
I did it with a friend in 2 hours 10 minutes.
Impressive! Did you record it?
@@GWVillager we didn't record it but we timed it
What about Morgate at the end of the GN services?
It's not classified as category A by the DfT, so I omitted it for consistency.
@@GWVillager Understood, its aleays hard to know where to draw a line.
@@philipgay4878 Indeed, I think I was pushing it a little with even Blackfriars.
What about Moorgate?
Moorgate isn't classified as a Category A station by the DfT, which was the definition I was going by.
@@GWVillager oh, ok
