    Finally hugely impressed of dedication to the cause to fly all the way to the USA in order to be able to fly back overnight and be one of the first arrivals to be able to make first use of the service. Much more adventurous than those Londoners who got up at the crack of dawn to queue 😊😊😊

      We, the people of London need to show our respect and appreciation for the efforts shown for the timing, jet lag, dedication and useful content. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
      Anything could've gone wrong, from delayed flights ✈️ from NYC etc, to the false alarm at Paddington.
      Whilst I hate using Heathrow Airport coming from the South of London, the EL has provided an alternative option to driving/taking a cab. The video has helped to promote the ease of use from T5 to central London and beyond. 🙂👍

Now you descend into a giant hall the size of a cathedral; the train slides into the station in silence; doors glide open soundlessly; you get aboard the train and it smoothly departs so you can hardly notice its moving.

    I travelled on the EL for the first time today and was impressed by the new rolling stock but mostly by the new stations. They are spartan and utilitarian yet also warm and welcoming. I'm very happy that my journey to work from now on will include a stretch on the EL. BTW surely you missed the opportunity to compare the EL with the subway in NY... the EL might have cost £18 billion but they can't have spent much more than eighteen dollars on the NY network. It's like a ride in a Joker theme park. Anyway, nice video.

    Nice video illustration, from your arrival at LHR terminal 5 into central London 👍.
    The EL construction, bares some similarities to NYC's "2nd Avenue Tunnel."
    Both developments have been in the pipe lines since the 1970's, the costs are similar and future developments are rolled out in phases, subject to funding.
    I'm glad you mentioned that Tottenham Court Road is the most central part of London, because if Crossrail 2 does get the official go ahead, Tottenham Court Road will be the only station running directly from North London to South London that also runs from East London to West London and beyond the suburbs.
    This will mean that Tottenham Court Road would unofficially be known as "Tottenham Cross Road," for its interchange, meeting points and increased passenger capacity inevitably making it one of the busiest stations in London!

    Do check where your hotel or Airbnb is though as depending on where it is the Picadilly line might be much closer e.g if you're staying in Earls Court, S Kensington , Knightsbridge , the Picadilly line is direct and you can walk to your accommodation (unless you have mobility issues).

    Good video - I enjoyed it. I've watched loads of other '1st Day' videos, e.g. Geoff Marshall's, but they all concentrated on the first train on the central section (Paddington to Abbey Wood or vice-versa). Interesting to see the experience from Heathrow that day.

    The western section can get very crowded during peak times so the Hesthrow Express can be essential. It is a busy commuter stopping service to which was added Heathrow.
    Sometimes services to and from Paddington are considerably disrupted so it is best to check each time one travels. Paddington services occasionally have points failures, signal failures and damage to overhead line equipment that can take hours to resolve. Although this is rare, it could happen when you are travelling. Allow lots of extra time and if nothing is running take a taxi.
    At present there are only two trains per hour to Heathrow on the Liz Line. If one is cancelled there will be a long wait and in the peak it could get very crammed. It is good when it's good though.

    Not trying to be a hater or anything but it isn’t actually a new tube/London underground line but actually a national rail line. The name doesn’t help aswell. It’s a bit like a Paris RER line.
