The sequence at 1:25 has sublime timing. That was *so* close to having a video of the Royal Scot ruined by some EMU or other, but as it actually happened was a perfect sequence. Great video!!
The steam tour turned out few minutes earlier than planned; I was lucky I turned my camera on and started walking towards the middle of the platform, planning to film with the phone as well; some other guys on the other platform didn't catch it as they weren't ready for it to come early; I believe this station is cursed though 😂😂; last year another shot almost ruined, check this out ua-cam.com/video/FfIQkZMjju8/v-deo.html
That second clip, the 225... It's stayed with me for 40 odd years, the mix of emotions when a train thunders past. Admiration. Excitement. Terror. Anxiety. Intruige. Just epic.
These trains really put the American railroads to shame. Even steam, 50+ year old diesels, and boxy commuter trains are faster than a lot of the US services.
UK train services excluding the HS1 only go between 70 to 135 mph. In the US, the majority of all passenger rail hits 80 to 90mph max, with some hitting 100 to 110mph. The Northeast Corridor and Brightline in Florida is really the only places you'll see trains go 125 and above. Otherwise, both sides are basically the same speed wise. The Northeast corridor would just be the United States HS1 just with infrastructure issues.
@@blackking7512yeah thats true but if you think about it the uk has a much more dense population so its obvious that trains will stop more often, hence the lower avarage speeds. Jn america most cities/settlements are ages away from eachother
@@blackking7512not to mention that the uk has 5 mainlines wheres trains can and will reach 125 mph for vast stretches of the country where even regional trains reach 100-110 mph
Nothing beats the buzz of opening up my British Rail map in the morning and deciding where I'm going to go to today. I spend days on the trains in England when I'm there.
Just found this video. One thing strikes me quite forcefully as an ex BR man myself. The warning announcements are so slow the train is well along the platform before they are finished. Great show of just how dangerous high speed trains are today. Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍
I totally agree. They are always reminding me of good old British Rail in the 80s and 90s. Probably class 91 is the final characteristically British looking loco built.
Great video and storming action. Makes it obvious that station warnings are given too late often when the train is seconds away or even into to the station
Great compilation!. Excellent captures, very fast trains..... Impressive race between the old passenger train and the modern unit (1:30), awesome steam locomotive, wowwwww, explosive!!!!. Thanks RailwayVideos for sharing.
Ah, this brings me back. I loved watching those Intercity Class 91s thundering down the Great Eastern on their way to Liverpool Street. It's almost a shame they're being phased out now.
I was at Kidsgrove Station a few weeks ago. An Avanti sped through. And a minute later the announcement that the train was approaching sounded. A bit late...
I love to watch the trains speed through my local ECML station Grantham, it’s just a noise, wind & a splash of colour. By the way I managed to reckonise them all too, not bad for a beginner trainspotter😊
@RailwayVideos Cheers, had a look on maps myself and had a cycle down there yesterday - a bit of a tricky ride, but the location is good. Again quality video.
@@class43tom if you manage to stick your camera through the fence, you get great shots(myself I'm using a handyman so I'm not worried of it falling off my hand behind the fence 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽) there is good view also from the footbridge
For its infrastructure and technology, the UK's got some good trains. Hopefully the government will invest into some high speed rail and get it up in the competition next to Germany and France.
Thanks for watching; they are working on HS2 now,that is meant to have trains running at 360km/h but the cost went to almost double from the initial cost and expected to keep rising; they are actually thinking to pause the works
Haven't filmed anything at Stratford International yet; those are shots I got in the past 2 years and decided to put them together and it turned out to be ok; now I am working on another similar project ,more diverse, including the IC125 👍
It looks like the steam train was going faster, but I will say what i saw and that is that the steam train had a steady gap on the modern train and that the modern train didnt appear to be gaining on steam train
@@RailwayVideos. privatization of Canadian National railway trackage in the 1990's has resulted in a 10mph reduction in top speed on expresses (from 100 to 90 mph) mainly because of track deterioration and line congestion.I expect the planned 125 mph new lines to go as well as HS2
Commuter trains in rural areas can have less than 3 coaches due to the low ridership amount, but commuter and express trains serving major cities like London can be formed of over 8 coaches
Love trains, just wish to find person like me,who loves travelling.. trains are great/ Grantham.. everyone whole my life thinks, I am wired, because I love trains,travelling,…
Great to see these steam flying machines at full speed steaming away on the mainline + the blue intercity flying machine and other modern and old-school loco's great filming and video 🤩😍🥰😎
so something really funny happened when i was at vauxhall station. so a fast train was approaching and the announcer was a woman, she was saying "fast train approaching! stand back!!". like wow and she was screaming as well 😳
Why didn't you do Southern, South Western Railway, other Southeastern trains, C2C, West Midlands Trains(West Midlands area), Northern and Transpennine Express?
Some cool passes.Deltic looking train sound like a bomber coming in to destroy something. Rest a bit meh, add a god 50-100 on be more like it. Frigging gov, muppets, let’s do a project kerching say the contractors. Hence why we haven’t moved on a lot in rail, just the rolling stock in 30+ yrs.
To see steam at full speed is something else.
Thanks for watching 👍
👌👌👌👍👍👍
Basically every train in the Uk is fast, even freight trains.
@@guineapigworld.unionofguin3202 you've obviously never used the district line

The Royal Train belonged to The Queen Mother
It was perfect. One of the best train pass scenes I've seen on YT.
Perfect timing. I couldn’t believe my eyes seeing that second train.

Thanks for watching! We can still enjoy them until they decide to replace them
I will never get over how good the Eurostars sound....
Thanks for watching 👍
yes 373s are the pinnacle of international trains
These trains really put the American railroads to shame. Even steam, 50+ year old diesels, and boxy commuter trains are faster than a lot of the US services.
Many thanks for watching; you are right, however, nothing on Europe can compare to the American freight system

What a cavalcade! My favourite has to be the Stanier Duchess!
Thanks for watching; that bit is one of my favourites too
Ah, the beuaty of Class 91. My all time favourite loco, and with spacious carriages!

I’ve heard announcements to stand back around 10sec after the train passed on London’s c2c services
Great compilation!. Excellent captures, very fast trains..... Impressive race between the old passenger train and the modern unit (1:30), awesome steam locomotive, wowwwww, explosive!!!!. Thanks RailwayVideos for sharing.
Really appreciate your support,have a great day
These are one of the hidden horn compilations we never would've known about.
Lovely shots mate
Many thanks 🙏👍
Must be the best at 01:28 absolutely amazing!
Thanks a lot 👍
Woohoo, awesome my friend, greetings from Brazil.
Thanks a lot my friend 😊
Ah, this brings me back. I loved watching those Intercity Class 91s thundering down the Great Eastern on their way to Liverpool Street. It's almost a shame they're being phased out now.
It's so cool to see the steam trains still in working order
It is indeed
railways so quiet these days, i miss the old clackety clack sounds the rails used to have
Bestial video! Fain intro-ul. Tare urmarirea de la 01:38, goneste tare aburoasa. Superbe capturi! Good job! MEGA LIKE

Awesome train compilation!!
Thanks a lot my friend
Thank you very much for the upload please can we have more like this ? Thank you again.
Thanks a lot for watching,I will try😊
@@RailwayVideos. thank you.
Great video of eclectic electrics (mainly)!
Thanks a lot for watching
Absolutely excellent video 👍 thanks
Thank you very much
1:25 - 1:45 The Royal Scot really said "Try to keep up youngin" 😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks for watching 🙂
I was at Kidsgrove Station a few weeks ago. An Avanti sped through. And a minute later the announcement that the train was approaching sounded. A bit late...
So the train was faster than the sound 😂😂😂😂; happens a lot to me too to hear the announcement after the trains passed already
Had the same thing where I live. Greater anglia are known to do the same. By the time they announce it, the train is long gone.
Fantastic compilation 💥😃👍
Thank you very much my friend
Keep them coming!
Thanks for watching
Bro took the train speed to another level
Excellent Work!✨️
Thank you so much 😀
What a selection!
Many thanks 👍
I love to watch the trains speed through my local ECML station Grantham, it’s just a noise, wind & a splash of colour. By the way I managed to reckonise them all too, not bad for a beginner trainspotter😊
I love the ECML, diverse enough; thanks for watching
@@RailwayVideos. me to, I am every day in train station,watching trains going trough.. it’s amazing 😊
Me too, every day in Grantham station,it’s joy watching trains,passing trough…
@@RailwayVideos. diverse, but it’s mostly plastic
Absolutely brilliant footage. I loved watching these.
Glad you enjoyed it
I LOVE TRAINS
Great compilation, especially the 225 at 4:04 - very well filmed. Where's the location of that shot?

Good old class 90 I love trains
Thanks for watching
Was Royal Scott and the Azuma drag racing 😂
Drivers of both should've used their whistles and horns to make it the best shot hehe
Nice video lovely tp still see 91s running on the metwork
Thanks for watching 👍

Glad you enjoyed it
That fast steam train. where does it run ?
It was heading to York, on a special tour

Thanks for watching
3:48 is this the GWR (great western railway) night riviera?
Yes,it is; it was running empty towards the depot though
Excellent
Thanks
Do you know Stratford where I run at 225 km/h ? I'm a Eurostar driver . And no film of IC 125 ?

The EMU actually overtook it,got the video on my phone but not good enough to be shared
Amazing videos but you could squeeze even more awesomeness in without the long hold and zoom out at the end of each video! 🙏🙏
Thanks for the tip!
Very nice indeed! Well done
Thank you! Cheers!
I wish there was a place in Canada I could watch trains moving this fast
I know there are financial capabilities, I believe the problem lies in politics; thanks for watching

There are alot of trains that go faster in Japan such as the Maglevi believe it’s called

Thanks a lot for watching ☺️
Superb
Thanks 🤗

Many thanks!
YES LAD BIG UPS MY ABSOLUTE BOY
Thanks for watching
Amazing how many trains are not very long. Three or four coaches...
Commuter trains in rural areas can have less than 3 coaches due to the low ridership amount, but commuter and express trains serving major cities like London can be formed of over 8 coaches

Should he give signal (horn) before station?
Wow kereta yang sangat cepat
why do british trains always have new paint schemes?
The different Train Operating Companies each have their own liveries.
@@UKHeritageRailways well then there must be atleast 500 single liveries for one company then.
I was at Stone station and the sign said there was a fast train approaching, but then the train came past at like 20mph 💀
Wanted to ask about the location of 4:08. Thanks!
Location is Dropped pin

so something really funny happened when i was at vauxhall station. so a fast train was approaching and the announcer was a woman, she was saying "fast train approaching! stand back!!". like wow and she was screaming as well 😳
But they don't really go that fast at vauxhall 😅 ; she was probably having a good day or at least trying
Why can’t Ontario have this , even amtrack has there highspeed corridor
Huh! "City of Truro" (3440) would have beaten them all!
I ll have to add that in the next similar video 👍
The track is hella dipped at 4:08
I thought Eurostar was done?
They stopped running during the pandemic but came back to life 😊
Why didn't you do Southern, South Western Railway, other Southeastern trains, C2C, West Midlands Trains(West Midlands area), Northern and Transpennine Express?
Most of the Transpennine services had been cancelled!

can it be described as fast?
British amtrak

Thank you
British trains are so slow....
I didn't know 200km/h and 300km/h on HS1 were considered slow
8:14 is considered slow?
