My gran raised me in edgware . near north London and all the time in the 1960s and 70s those 1938 stock tube trains were everywhere . Your video is bringing back the memories . Those trains of course were in their time Bakerloo line , Piccadilly line and Northern line trains and Judging by the map inserts just above the windows the carriage you were in was an ex northern line train . If you look at an RT type bus that of was running on the roads at the time that train ran in London
When they were going downhill from Hendon Central through the tunnel into Colindale those trains used to bounce around like nobodys business . As a child it was like a funfair ride.
Wow, just discovered your channel and subscribed immediately. Geoff Marshall better watch out! 😀 The Piccadilly line was my stamping ground back when I lived in Heston/Hounslow in the 1960s - back then it was a mix of 1938 and 59/62 stock with the occasional Standard stock to surprise us.
Love these trains, remember riding on them when I was a child back in the 1970's, they used to run on the Piccadilly Line; that was long time ago, happy memories. Great to see it again!
I detect a future member of Hidden London. ^^ Brilliant video, and I'm incredibly envious you've managed to do something that's been on my bucket list forever!
Nice video Riku, keep it up! I was really sick and couldn't see it but I did catch it at Acton Town due to the King's Coronation. Nice to see you there too! At 2:31, I stood at the exact place hehe
Id love to go do these 1938 stock railtours, but alas, living in the northern edges of Gloucestershire makes getting to london painful sometimes. At least i can make it to the acton depot
Once again, what an amazing video, thank you very much for putting in all this effort into your videos to cure my boredom (on some days 😂) I actually tried getting this train myself but got sidetracked so missed it 😭, can’t wait to see what your next video is about!
I'm glad that you enjoy watching my videos- I'm very passionate about making my videos, and I love when amazing people like you make such kind comments! They warm my heart :)
The sounds of this train accelerating are so much like the old Berlin S-Bahn trains from the late 20's and 30's that kept running well into the 90's (some examples made it to mid-2000!). Only the characteristic noise of the brake compressor is missing.
I remember those trains from as far back as the late 1950s, when I think they were running on all the deep level lines (the Waterloo & City was part of British Rail until 1994). All the Underground trains were red then, and they were later replaced with unpainted 'silver' trains. The 1938 stock trains were in service on the Northern line until 1988, just under 50 years after they were first introduced on the Tube. The terrible 1975 accident at Moorgate, at the terminus of the Northern City line, shortly before it was due to be transferred to British Rail and run beyond Finsbury Park, involved a 1938 stock train. The line was considered part of the Northern line at the time, despite not being connected to it (by rail).
1938 Stock - back out on Sunday 9th July - Acton Town - Oakwood - found out late but trains will be running through central London pic stations - looks of strange reactions from normal passengers
@@rikufryderyk Thanks a lot for answering, I was curious because I do basically the same stuff as you (I just don't have a youtube) and a lot people think that I am werid for travelling london by tube everything at a age around you. Your a big inspiration too me and keep doing what your doing!
Lovely video. Remember the 1938 when I was young in the 1970's..
Aha so it was you with the hat! I was on the 4th carriage of the 1938 stock
Brought a tear to my eye Young lady, late for work, don't stop in the tunnel 😱🧐
Very nice 😊

That's incredible how they used those stocks till 2021 on the Isle Of Wight railway
Hey , you’re really good. Well done. G loves trains has competition. 😂. 🚂🚴♂️👣🇺🇦

I’m sure it was amazing to ride those trains back in the day when they were in service- I was stunned by this stock’s beauty ❤❤❤
If i remember correct they also had a life on the northern line.
I- I'm speechless. You need a BBC interview for your amazing editing.

It must be amazing to see them back running after having ridden on them while they were still in service on the Underground. They are stunning.

I have ridden the 1938 stock in the 21 century Mutiple times in regular passenger service.
the 483s that used to be on the Isle of Wight, then.
Dude what do you use to edit youre just as smart as Geoff, you're an intelligent young man you are! Better at editing than me! 😀
Are you going to ride the Amersham-Watford ones or no?
I'd say the Picc Resignaling won't happen for a year or two. Or at least won't go live before tgar time. As the 73 stock will still be in swrvice
If u dont mind, how old are u?
I don't mind at all- I'm twelve years old. I film the video, make the thumbnail and edit on my own, though.

@@rikufryderyk thank you so much!!
Your mother and your grandmother spoke about this train, did they not?
Sorry I don't understand?
@@rikufryderyk Did they tell you about their experience?
Before you had open the doors yourself. Elizaveta
No, they were automatic I’m pretty sure for a long time
