Cheers Tiger! Been working on several ideas but work keeps getting in the way - lots of exciting stuff planned though. Thanks for watching, lots of fun seeing the line open and making this…I’m feeling it now after that early start though 😂
Lovely, exciting and so on...but am I being ignorant or has absolutely no-one even mentioned the Elizabeth Line journey onwards from Paddington to either Reading or Shenfield?? I am confused, this is supposed to be a major new line across London isn't it??
Ha, thanks Phil! So those two lines you mentioned were previously part of TFL Rail - they have been around for a while, and the Crossrail project effectively connects them. Once the full links are complete you’ll be able to a get a train right through the core section without changing platforms. I cover this briefly in my latest channel upload from yesterday. Definitely keen to do a video about the wider line! 👍
I'm so jealous!! This was an amazing documentation of the first day of service, I wished Iived in London to actually ride this train because it's world class. Also, I can't get over the views at 7:31 and 7:57! Awesome video, I've subbed!
Thanks Owen, lovely comments! It was definitely fun to document, even with the super early start 😂 Those two views you mentioned from Paddington - I wasn’t sure how those would come out and it’s hard to properly hear them because of the soundproofing, so pleased they came out well. Thanks for the sub too, great to have you aboard!
Cheers DP. I've been working on tons of content pieces in the background but work keeps getting in the way - this was too good an opportunity to pass up though! Hope you're keeping well 👍
First to comment! Thanks for making amazing content TOTB! We shall we remember the times we would laugh at when the Elizabeth line opened... sadly it's come to an end...
@@trainsonthebrain It’s a new era for Britain’s railway from now on… once HS2 is launched then it will completely destroy the old railways which will make the class 465 or other trains completely vanished… well just have to see how it goes…

More excitement eating a jam doughnut 🍩.
That appears to be a chocolate doughnut emoji and now I'm feeling peckish for both ingredients.

Excellent video! I tried the line today as well, although not on the first train.. Well done for that! :)
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed the ride - was certainly impressed myself. Proud of the video but my body is feeling the 4:00am alarm now 🥲
great video
Thanks David, much appreciated. Was a fun day of shooting...feeling it now though after an early start!
Elizabeth Line Class 345
After been delayed for what? More than 10 times, was it? It has finally opened!
Was beginning to wonder if we’d ever see the day! 💜
@@trainsonthebrain I guess it was well worth the wait than anything
Elizabeth LineIt looks like is Operated by the MTR
Greetings in Hong Kong!
Geoff Marshall this is the second video that I have seen him on that's not his. He's da man.
Legend!
Well I did a station announcement at Custom House at 16:26
Which time? That’s super though!
@@trainsonthebrain 4:26 or 4:51 I think.. I don't work for TFL btw, so that's one rare achievement. I have the picture of the man letting me do it.
@@dmitrieditor Yep think I got you, excellent! You’ll remember that for a long time!
Where's Lizzie?
😁
