Its so comforting to know that the government officials would all have been safely tucked up in safe locations while the “peasants” were all being fried alive.
Pullman didn’t operate in France; unless I am mistaken, I think it’s wrong to let viewers think passengers went all the way to Paris without changing carriages…”or cars” [😂!]…
THERE IS ALSO ONE UNDER BRISTOL AND LONDON. YOU GO TO LIBRARY, GET A KEY, AND THERE YOU WILL FIND MARVELLOUS PAINTINGS ROMAN TIMES ET AL. SMUGGLING WAS MOST IMPORTANT: BRANDY FROM FRANCE FOR EXAMPLE. HASTINGS GOOD EXAMPLE: EASIER PASSAGE TO FRANCE WHEN OUR SEA IS ROUGH. BIT 2 DO WITH GOOD OLD POLITICS AT TIME. SPANISH WORSE THAN US? BRITISH POLITICS MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS -V ELIZABETH 1ST.
Brilliant upload, thank you! I'm from Stockport, and we've still got 3 sets of Air Raid Shelter tunnel systems carved into the soft 'New Red Sandstone' that the town in built on. One of them is partially open as a museum, the other two used to be open (unofficially) to 'Urban explorers', and the homeless community, but they've now been cemented closed sadly. Got a couple of vids of them on my channel for anyone interested.
Interesting in about all the tunnels, even under our great building for the MPs and the pm , wonder if they’ve ever been down there. Love the little engine I can imagine it at work chugging away down there.
With Vladimir Putin, this facility needs to be put into readiness
Lovely…“The journey has its own lyrics A duet of balanced motion The rails and wheels in tune “🚂
At 42:33, the narrator mentions the purchase of a tunnel in 1954. Surely the war was over at that stage?
It's a shame something couldn't have been done about the sound balance. Sometimes the words were overwhelmed by the music.
In the early 2000 used to belong to Subterranea Britannica" , great site
Been to kelvdon hatch bunker 4 times, great place, kids loved it.
I wished mine teachers could have spared a single period in a month for documentaries I really like these but none of my friends watch these so they think I am to much when telling them what I had learned 🫣
This is better than any rail programme that's on today's TV
Great video, shame I had to endure 20 fucking ads to watch it though 😡
England is so historic its so much older as opposed to the us...
So I'm from the US and hoping to visit the UK this year, specifically London. I would love to check out some heritage railways while I'm there, but not sure how far away from the capital some of them are and what it would take to get to them since I'd be relying entirely on public transport.
What an amazing, wonderful and historical railway program. I enjoyed every minute, well done. 👍🚂🚃
Why Why The annoring music in the background, we are in the country on a waterway, I wan't to hear the water NOT damb awfull music. Please Please take it OFF.
Facinating. What is the music by the way?
How did they keep the country running if they were hiding under the ground shitting their pants can someone educate me , as I understand they didn’t put out any fires , they didn’t sort through rubble for injured kids , they don’t attend to the wounded pissing with blood, they didn’t go hungry either did they, and if shit did go off fishy ballsack would be the first down the whole keeping the dust off his greasy helmet head , boris couldn’t fit down the chute , they probably have their own personal bunkers with caviar and champagne for breakfast the cunning pilfering money grabbing lying control freaks, fuck the rest jack we’ve got food and a fifty foot thick door , all this government does is take our money to make arms to start more war as the have done for centuries attempting to control the world , no wonder we are now overrun with immigration it’s a lesson being taught for the previous shit the royals of this country caused invading everyone else’s peace dodgy deals lies and underhanded dealings to benefit their own pockets fucking scum .
Dispossessed means deprived of land and property. Possessed means controlled by an evil spirit
Why are so many interested in giving away all the secrets? War can come about in the future and such locations may again be needed
Back in 1910 the Stockton and Darlington had 4 tracks. The propellers for Titanic and Olympic were made in Darlington, and transported on all 4 tracks (spanning 4 trains) to Hartlepool docks, and shipped to Belfast. Look how crap the S & D is now compared to then. And running Pacer trains, the ultimate insult from Maggie Thatcher (spit).
Thank you - this was a fantastic video. As a child, I came across caves, tunnels and bomb sheltersin the UK, which I loved exploring
Aye boye tir somapti kor, sobai k khabar utpadon kora jorule. R sha ta amajon er diky.
as a kid in very early 1972 my best pals brother used to collect bits of ww11 stuff he dug up,on cannock chase and local sites that got bombed ,,at the back of a old bombed out factory site at the back he found a covered door way ,took him 5 days to dig it out and get in ,and what a find ,a set of 4 radios still inboxes a box of enfeilds 3 boxes of brens boxs of grenades stens other stuff all stored on metal rackes ,he called the police in ,he took photos of the find ,must have been a cash of weapons put there by local defence teams ,in 1939 /40 the factory made stens and enfield parts and other bits
I’ve heard that there’s an actual lake under the city centre in Liverpool .. by the Cavern Club .. wonder if this is true?
Pĺllp
30:39 that mannequin looks like he just had the hardest day of his life.
30:36 That mannequin is the saddest looking dude ever! It's as if someone just told him his mannequin wife cheated on him!
E still need a bunker mentality
Blimey were more likely to have a nuclear war now in 2023 than any Time during the cold war yet are nation shruggs off threats by Russia its a dangerous game we are playing.
I have heard, from my grandfather, a member of British secret services, of an amazing operation to secretly store enough oil to maintain shipping throughout the war. One extensive tank, set in hills above Glasgow, is identified by Guiness Book of world records, as possessing the longest sustained echo. Where and how many were established is secret, but it must be enormous. I assume previous excavations might have been exploited. Chasing red spies until 1924, into China, being a cousin of the US ambassador, Joseph P Kennedy, my grandfather worked at a high level.
I know that mfking tunnel, that first shot is from kelvendon hatch! Ha ha! (insert maniacal laugh here)
A most excellent vocal narration for an equally most excellent documentary: top marks for balanced and appropriate intonations to communicate empathy regarding the dearth of what we all cherish to an nth degree, and for which we are all sadly responsible, at least in part (we all like our cars that afforded us individual freedom to go wherever we wouldst, buy whatever we cared, and back to our hove doorsteps whenever and however late the hour…. But railways had their costs to cover and we couldn’t afford the tickets to cover, as for collectively paying through taxes collected…Maybe where we handed over so much to countries that scourged our very name…
As an American I must say that is is fortunate these historic sites have been preserved, unlike in America where so many historic buildings have been torn down to make way for parking lots. Nevertheless, we have come a long way since the 60's and 70's.
Well be slaves to carry on the project ,this what I think fallen gong and weigers been subjected to b4 all their body organs been sold
Not all the dead are under ground imagine whT goes on now with these tunneling machines chine could be under our feet waiting for the order to pop out with all their war machinery and in 1 day it could all be over
Great video, and very interesting, love it.
Thinking governments should suck up the benefits of what they cause well the innocent people hide in bunkers who cares if the government is around to run the country's after they mess it all up ..
World Class.
Great History.
The Swan a Creature of Beauty.
What a Beautiful Doco.
Labour shut more railway,s than Beeching ever did, a certain Babera Castle under Wilson Gov, fact.
Building underground structures is a good thing during WW2. Its safer and it gives the population something to do by digging. Maybe they were paid for their time too so they would have money to live on.
Congratulations, this video is amazing. I enjoyed every minute of it. It was 1st class from beginning to the end. Well done Sir.. 🙂👍
This is fascinating!!
Horse shit, meet documentary. Documentary, meet horse shit.
Never knew the origin of The Clink before. Thank you.
