How dare you interrupt my coffee!!!!
Soweeee mwhahahaha
Ooooh I do love a cappuccino. I watch both of you and am subbed to both
@@Sammyjane72x same
Hehehe
at least you got one, just at a different location ;)
I am speechless on the result on the race.... But it was a tough one as I'm on Team G and on Team Jen! Team Gen??? Congrats on the winner as I don't want to spoil the video but a epic video indeed.
I'd better add my commiserations to the loser then Cyber! Pete J.
To be honest thanks indeed 😁
Who'd have thought a train journey that literally starts off going almost half a mile in completely the wrong direction, then joins the second worst bottleneck in the UK rail system and ends with several hundred yards of walking would take longer than a direct cross city tram ride to well a located well located stop? Ken was always gonna win.
Wow. That is a shock. Does mean our constant journeys on these is a good idea
Yes we need to do more!
@@GLovesTrains we can do, and you can give me another Metrolink Massage on one hehe
i really enjoyed this one brilliant epic race between you and Jen n the Move keep up the awesome work
Thanks!
Congratulations on 10k baby xxxxx
Such good fun, and the editing certainly keeps things exciting! Great to see the both of you pair up and collaborate!
Thanks Gwen! Was really fun filming with Jen
You two put a smile in my morning. Thanks.
Thanks!
definitely because of the mile long trek from platform 13
Great video!
Also congrats on 10K too :)
Thanks!
Always a entertaining watch with whot ever idea u come up with yes a close well all most finish, who would of thought it a tram win!!! Here's to the next adventure. 👍🚋🙂
Thanks!!
Fantastic video as always
Great editing - kept the suspense all the way through - fantastic! 👍🏻
Thanks!!
Brilliant video legend I wish got meet you I am big fan and great race I think train will win
What a great video of you and Jen racing across Manchester, loved every minute of it. Kind regards Mark-Edwyn. 🚂
Thanks!
never intensly been botherd watching a video but this one and casually favoring with Gloves trains in winning just to not betray as a subscriber
Nice race G & Jen. Congratulations Jen for beating G to Piccadilly lol. Would love to see more transport races on your channel in future. I enjoyed watching as always.
Thanks Sam! Me and Jen deffo need a decider!
It was great meeting you that day! 👍 😁
Fantastic collaboration and a great video 🙂
Thanks!
Loved this G & Jen, especially the dramatic background music … more please. Looking forward to the next one, stay safe.
Thanks! I want more too haha
0:13 Oh G! Jen needed her coffee! ☕️
SHe did, we all need coffee!
Another great race, with no clue who would win until the very end! And racing to Canada would be impressive, so hope that's not just a throwaway idea ;)
Haha now there's no way Jen can beat me to Canada on a tram... but then again...
@@GLovesTrains Race your mate to Canada? - Wot were you thinking G? I woz thinking perhaps Canada Wharf on the DLR - And then it struck me: 🙂Go to Toronto and you'll be well set to tick the Niagara Falls off your bucket list (~and probably beat Jen in getting there)! 🙂
Already watched Jen's video and now we've got yours! wooo
This is the one I have been looking forward to since you two had your Twitter challenge 😜 This rematch is a real bonus
Thanks haha!
Love it! Great dramatic effect with the music. I was backing you all the way. Even in defeat you smile. Great fun, excellent, Ray
Aww thanks Ray haha!
@@GLovesTrainsamazing video
Really loved this race and the descriptions on what’s going on. It reminds me of the old school top gear races back in the day.
Oh what a brilliant idea to do this! It was so entertaining and kept me on the edge of my seat! (P.S. just watched it again. Still not sure how on Earth Jen got there first!)
I'm still not sure either haha! Shocking!
Brilliant video once again, I hope lunch was nice 😀
Thanks, lunch is always nice
That was a fun little vlog. Great editing, very professional 👍🏼
Thanks!
Awesome video G Love Trains
I like how you and Jen raced each other to beat who is the best. Very good video 😄
Thanks!
ooh, didnt expect that outcome, great video, Jen and G! :)
Haha me neither 😂
Now try Altrincham to Piccadilly! Train vs Tram!!! 😁
Thanks for the video girls totally enjoyed the race, really thought the train would win!!😎🚝🚝🚝🚝🇬🇧
Same here haha same here!
Train versus tram... Oh the suspense! I am partial to a nice tram, if I'm honest. Dramatic music too. Great fun, tram-filled, coffee-fueled video!
Thanks! I like trams too haha
Haha! A funny and entertaining video once again G!
A race to Canada train vs tram would be awesome 🤣🤣
Stay safe! 😀👍
We are still racing now haha
@@GLovesTrains Hahaha! The underwater SpongeBob express!
Fantastic racing G northern rail used to work over the ordsal cord but tp took over the workings i was very surprised by the result of this race😀😀looking forward to more of these races🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
Thanks Stuart! I'm still shocked haha
Great video and the suspense was better than the old Top Gear challenges!
Excellent video, G! The editing on this vlog kept me guessing the result right up until the end. I should have known you would volunteer for a route involving travelators somehow though!
Haha yep it was the travelators for sure! 😂
I always walk it to Piccadilly from crumpsall Manchester even in a blizzard 😍
Well done G on 10k subs fantastic.
Thanks!
This sort of thing could run and run. Smashing.
Thanks!
Another great vlog. Yesterday I caught the tram from Piccadilly to Media City. I could've walked/cycled it quicker. It was painfully slow. I love platforms 13 & 14, organised chaos 🤣
Haha permanently busy yep 😂
You make a dismal day seem bright and exciting your vlogs are so entertaining the station's look great there is a TV program just waiting for you to do,✅✅👌👌👍👍
I love you so much you have helped me so much with my anxiety thank you Xx
Thanks, glad to hear 😁
Great vlog G., I woz on the edge of my chair the whole way (wot a way to 'Picc' a winner eh!)
Cheers PJ, wuheyyy nice one 😂
That was edge of your seat stuff that…phew…well done Jen and better luck next time G. Brill video xx
Thanks xx
Jen has got powers man I tell ya! Also I saw you two filming outside Piccadilly.
🙋♂ Very exciting; although you were only the second winner, you will always be number one for me 😇😎
Aww thanks haha
When two RUclips legends meet.........
I must admit I was expecting you both to arrive at the bollards outside the station at exactly the same time, as it looked very close
If Canada is too far for your next race with Jen, maybe you could have a race to Euxton Balshaw Lane instead
Haha that is the ultimate race 😂
I guess I know what I’ll be on from Victoria to Piccadilly in the future 😂 excellente video from you ladies! 😄
You can walk it in under 20 minutes - I did on Wednesday - and use the money you save towards another coffee 😀
Train yeah? 😛😂
@@DonConstance that's a good point... I was on a Manch ticket so didn't have pay extra... whereas Jen... had to pay... so who is the real winner here? 😂
@@GLovesTrains One of the two 😜
@@DonConstance Tram is free if you have a rail ticket to Vic or Picc
Awesome video gloves trains from Alan in Lowestoft xx 😘
I felt so conflicted about who I wanted to win! Ultimately I had to go by mode of transport so obviously I ended up rooting for the train. Still pleased for Jen winning though!
Trains rule!
It is a Transpennine though, so obviously it wouldn't win even against a tortoise.
The tension was too much hahaha thanks G!😅
Haha thanks!
Very nice video
Yay.. Jen 's the winner..she's lovely! :)
A few minutes at Victoria, 9 minutes on the train, then the walk from Platform 13 (another few mins)...
...it only takes about 15-20 minutes to walk between the two. I walk it :)
Good race though :)
Walking is fun!
Great fun. I walked from Vic to Picc this afternoon, but I didn't know about this video, so I didn't time it. Exchange Square tram stop was full of Real Sociedad fans on the way to Old Trafford to beat Man United. Happy days.
Lol you pulled Jen out from getting her coffee. 😂 Brilliant collaboration between you and Jen. A tram is faster than a train? How is that possible? Guess HS2 needs trams to run on it now lol. Also I did visit Manchester twice last year and on one trip I did see the Odsall Chord and saw some Northern Filthy Buggers (trains I've loved since I was living in Brighton but I've said that plenty of times lol) working on there so it may be possible Northern do run on it but I haven't checked lately.
Thanks! Jen doesn't stop drinking coffee haha
I used to live there, while the Train has the speed and stop advantage, it has to take a long route around, where as the Tram cuts through the city. Also the platform the Train comes in on is quite far from the station entrance by a considerable amount whereas the Tram, despite coming in underground comes out in the middle of the station and is a much shorter route. Frankly, the train was always going to lose between those two stations, just simply because of the platform configuration.
looks like a race to Canada Water station or Canada in Wellow Hampshire then 😉 Great video
Haha thanks!
The Ordsall curve is woefully underutilised due to capacity constraints along the Oxford Road Corridor which were known about and ignored by the Government when the link was being built.
6:56 - 7:01 that smile suits you GlovesTrains the face reaction says it all
Jen left 90 seconds after and still beat a train!
Well done Gloves and Jen, Jen's win this time, you ought to do a best of 3...
Take care, Jon B. 🙂👍
We need a decider for sure!
Train loops round the city rather than tram can just go right through, dwell times per stop will probably be smaller too.
Hey G how are you darling ... Great little video this u gunna do anymore off this sort of videos please cheers x 😊💯
I live on moss bank opposite station road near crumpsall station these days it's mostly teams that go past my house 😍 sometimes a maintenance train goes past
Done the tram route Man Picc - Man Vic (and back) so many times
The free city bus takes a short eternity
Hey, Jen, i've got the blue dungarees version of your dress! 😊
Well done Jen. Tram wins
Train is definitely quicker
@Quantum Pulsar TT I know
Well done to Team Jen. 😀
I would not of thought the tram would of won as the train seemed quicker the tram was properly close to the finish point as you had to come from the train platform to the finish point.
Awesome.🙂
Thanks!
When you race to the actual country of Canada, first one should get a box of Coffee Crisp
Shows you the insanity of modern transport planning. TPE trains from the east used to go straight into Piccadilly, now they spend forever circling the west of the city, and it would probably be quicker to walk from Victoria than even taking the tram!!
Next race: Rotherham Central to some coffee shop in Meadowhall shopping centre, (A) by train to Meadowhall station and walk across the bridge and (B) tram-train to Meadowhall South tram stop and walk through the car park? There's a xx58 train and a xx02 tram most hours.
Fun fact, Northern was the first TOC to run over the chord
I'm guessing the train would win
Interesting race. It did seem that Gs route had lots more walking involved.
I would like to see races based on several factors
Time taken of course
Cost
and
this is rarely factored in Stress,ease
I wonder whether it could have been quicker to have caught one of the airport/East Didsbury trams to St Peter's Square and get a tram to Piccadilly from there as opposed to waiting for the Piccadilly tram at Victoria?
Love Manchester
You like 185s??? You are the only person I know of who does. They are universally loathed here in Huddersfield
What! I'm from Huddersfield and love 185's! Purpose built for the transpennine route, far better than the class 802's etc which are under-powered in diesel mode.
1-1, well done Jen. Who's gonna win the tie breaker?
Love me some LGBT+ railway colab.
We need one!
Got an idea, Manchester to Burnley Northern Train vs X43 Bus
Trains Station 🚉
Here in Prague trams are faster than the metro. Even if the trains go faster you lose time getting down to the platform and back up.
jen reminds me of bruno powroznik.
1-1 You can win them all, team Gloves Trains... Good try! Whilst I'm at it, how far are they with the OHLE post on the Stalyvegas route? Not had chance to get that way yet.. Muchio Thank you!
Thankssss!
When you race to Canada can you bring me some Greggs pies and sausage rolls? Will get the finish line set up with some Tim Hortons coffee and donuts!
That result did surprise me. I didn't know that you could get a train from Victoria to Piccadilly. It is about 15 years since I commuted through Manchester; is the direct train a new thing? I knew yo could get the tram, but the train is a new one on me.
Been several years now since you could! Only one service per hour 👍
@@GLovesTrains yeah links Victoria with Manchester Airport one way and Yorkshire the other
You should do it again but include walking this time and compare the times for all 3. Looks like you both had fun.
I would be even more shocked if walking won!
@@GLovesTrains I bet walking is quicker in-between both Manchester Stations?
You could do Lime Street to Chester. One via Merseyrail, the other via TFW. Or maybe Helsby, the previous stop, so the Merseyrail user has to change at Ellesmere Port.
The other part of this comment is on J's video.
Oh bollards!!! She's already there!!!
Race to Canada, one goes out of Manchester Airport and another goes out of Luton Luton Airport
Reminds me of an old Top Gear challenge ...... or should that be Top G!!
Hello what's the name of the tram company
Manchester retro link
The thing about taking a train between the two stations is that you have to time it because they’re half hourly
Hourly they are, was meant to say that in the vid lol
@@GLovesTrains I thought that it was 2 services that are hourly. The Manchester airport Middlesborough, and the Manchester airport to Newcastle. They combine to make a half hourly service. Am I wrong with this?
A very good Tuesday evening young lady how are you today hun xx from Alan in Lowestoft
Ahhhh but hang on...would on foot between the stations be a quicker option? G did it in 9 mins,i think i could run it quicker than that.Posably.In the middle of the night.
