Even better the second time round! Fantastic work everyone. Btw, I'm not saying you have to do more of these Geoff, but I can't help noticing that the controversial "Metropolitan Line" purple would be perfect for Line 14 of the Paris Metro... 👀
@kendalldalstock8900: “Busses” is correct as well. Particularly in the UK. “Buses” is an Americanism. This is a video about the London Underground. Do the math(s).
Now you need to make the infinitely more complicated Glasgow Subway. Or if you want something more simple, you could try to do the Paris Metro!!!! (Yes, this is a repost due to a re-upload)

Acton Depot is a brilliant place, the last visit was the first time I met Geoff as well. Do remember that pretty well as it was for a book signing and I was in the queue, when it was my turn walked up to the table and Geoff was looking down, he looked up, saw me and said 'YOU!' and after that had a quick chat, was quick as there was a long queue which is understandable. Really enjoyed the video and was fun to watch and love to see more projects like this in the future. Maybe the DLR as a suggestion?
This is the ultimate Lego Tube Nerd model. But if you can get even more people, more tracks, and a soccer field or similar, it would be even more amazing to do the ENTIRE tube network, plus the Elizabeth Line, Overground, and DLR.
I mean, if they cpuld make it dual track and get the full network running, I'm surprised if somebody like lego wouldn't want to sponsor the pieces at least
For a moment, I thought this was a fun Part 2 to yesterday’s video lmao All I want to say is that this video is definition of immaculate vibes and what a fun team to work on this with. Big shoutout to Chris because they’re awesome!
I'm rewatching this video just because I enjoyed it so much the first time. My original comment was about how much this reminds me of the series that James May used to make, when he used to gather a group of people and build something with things such as lego.
I recall he built a hornby type model railway that ran along the path of a disused line down in Devon, even crossing the road where a level crossing once stood.
Emily that was excited because she just had to make and take care of the Waterloo & City line is hilarious. (Yeah I rewrote the same content, shame that Geoff has been copyrighted for no reason !)
I enjoyed the video just as much the 2nd time around. It still looks like a lot of time, and effort went into production of the line. You can really see just how much fun the project was. But spending the evenings cutting out all those colored papers is either pure devotion or maybe a little madness, but then maybe a project like that requires a little of both, lol. I promise I will reopen my Lego London box from Christmas and actually finish building my Lego London. It is a must finish project now. I can hardly ignore it after you built the whole tube map. But I draw the line at all the brown paper to represent the River Thames separating the Tower of London, Big Ben, and the London Eye. Lol
Excellent! (Reminiscent of that time we all joined you for the Human Tube Map!) . Do you think in 50 years time people will be asking, "Where is that Lego tube map?" and the answer will be, "Oh it was just taken apart afterwards and returned to its owners." Funny how that is true of so many things!
Just Wow! *To see the intention you had, to make it by a 3D layout, rightfully and logically so, and without too much image complexity makes it feel so satisfyingly raw, simple, and fun to observe.* FYI, I do have the yellow (2018) passenger train [half]. It's great [controlled by phone too]
absolute joy filled get together. I have yet to get into the depot on open days, I am keeping up hope for the future. I wish they would do winter open. Stay tuned for a future episode where Geoff and Jen set up Tunnel Boring Network to create a 3D model in the depot floor
This whole exercise has the feel of a corporate team building exercise only it’s great fun and ultimately successful. Well done team. What’s your next task?
Instead of raising a complete line you could have raised and lowered them in the actual what goes over or under which and where. Just had a thought, repeat it inside clear plastic tubes then it will be a tube map.
They could have if they weren't going to runs trains. The tracks could have lain just over (or just under) others, as the Bakerloo, Piccadilly and Jubilee lines do in what they built. However, raising and lowering tracks by the height of the trains would make some slopes impossibly steep.
A rare moment for the Waterloo & City line to shine! As for the London Transport Depot, it’s an absolute must! I don’t understand why that isn’t the ‘main’ museum as it’s much more grander & exciting than Covent Garden.
OMKC3! Geoff Marshall, Tom Scott and Half-Asleep Chris collaborating on a video!!!??? Just throw in Jay Foreman and few others at that’s like the Dream Team of British RUclipsrs!!!!!!!
Slight poetic license with the Circle Line being a complete circle but hey it looks brilliant!!! All the hard work was definitely worth the overall result!!!! 👍👍😃😃👏👏
We should have a Lego version of an Underground train on Lego Ideas. I have to admit that despite visiting all 272 London Underground stations, I have still not travelled on the Waterloo & City line
Oh well commenting again! Well done Geoff, Chris, and everyone involved! Brilliant idea and brilliant execution of it! This is the one I've enjoyed the most in a long time love it 😊 😊
Nice one Jeff. Enjoyed it even better the second time around as I watched it from the comfort of my lounge instead of on the bus. Question, why were some of you wearing covers on your shoes?

Good job Geoff love you man! ❤
does it come with a lego frog?
Fingers crossed, this doesn't get copyright claimed
That's why I stopped using Storyblocks for music, they regularly 'split up' with their artists and then a month later you get a copyright issue
Even better the second time round! Fantastic work everyone. Btw, I'm not saying you have to do more of these Geoff, but I can't help noticing that the controversial "Metropolitan Line" purple would be perfect for Line 14 of the Paris Metro... 👀
he even used the word guillotine.
Y E S.
Do the full map, but let Jay Foreman finish the Northern Line!!
what he didnt do in his songs🤣🤣
Brick men brick men brick brick brick men men
That'd be brilliant - especially if you add the old Metropolitan Line when it went to Brill and Verney Junction and the District Line to Windsor bits.
Have you seen the London Tube Map?
I gather elevating the circle line was easier than excavating the depot & kept the LTM happy
Videos about building the tube map in Lego, are like busses. You wait forever for one, and then two comes at once.
😂😝
Haha
*buses
@kendalldalstock8900: “Busses” is correct as well. Particularly in the UK. “Buses” is an Americanism. This is a video about the London Underground. Do the math(s).
Shame about the copyright claim, let’s watch it all over again I guess! 😅
Since Half Asleep Chris was involved, I have to ask; Does it come with a Lego Frog?
Ah, I wondered if it was Half Asleep Chris! Hard to see on my phone without my glasses, but the voice was familiar
I was really expecting one in his car.
Yup or in huis garden
I just know that Tom Scott is going to recommend this video in his weekly newsletter.
that would be lovely if he did!

I would be up for that...
Lego and London Underground. Two of my favourite things together.
This!
I would call the London Underground a warm-up.
Now you got to build the network rail map! :D
Love the replacement bus service.

Best game of 'Mornington Crescent' ever!! 🙌😁
I love how everyone is outraged by raising the Circle line 😂
It makes sense doesn't it?
Loved this video. You should definitely do more Lego themed London Underground videos. Perhaps try and recreate famous station models?
Lovely to see both Jen and Geoff together. Two of my three favourite railway RUclipsrs.

Btw: How is Ralph, Bella and Maisie doing?
9:46 In my opinion the best part of the video

I appreciate it. Also - the Waterloo and City line was the hardest work and I only derailed it once!
@@EmilyTakesTheBus you're having the noble work of derailment team from Network Lego 😂

6:59 I love how confident Dominic is in placing the Battersea station paper. There, boom, next! 😂😂😂
Same comment as last time - where do we apply to hang out in the garden with Geoff and Chris?! 😅
This was so fun! Waterloo & City supremacy!!!

Brilliant.
Especially love the cardboard idea - creates a super visual
Wouldn’t expect Chris to collaborate with Geoff, while Geoff works on trains and Chris works on Lego. What a really great colab dynamic! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! :-)
Thanks Geoff! I love the group project aspect of this, and the lines and trains too of course
This is so cool! Also a big shout out to Emily, who was one of the amazing guides when I did the Hidden London Tour of Baker St back in January! :)
Train and lego Nerds meeting so cool
Awesome idea, that LEGO tube train looks great!
Just Wow!

Don't worry Paul, there is no grey line. The Jubilee is silver

Didn't know you and Half Asleep Chris collabed. Nice to see this map with the custom trains and figures, absolutely crazy
This whole exercise has the feel of a corporate team building exercise only it’s great fun and ultimately successful. Well done team. What’s your next task?
Well done geoff and half asleep chris and all the people who helped🎉

With all the elevated tracks, this feels more like the Chicago El Trains
(Again!) Thanks for not showing me drive my train off the end of the Central Line! 🤣
Thanks for having me... twas a fun day!
Looks like a fun day and loving the outfit….. you look like a Minion, that’s awesome!! ❤
Can we please use this as a Prototype for a running Lego Tube Map permanently displayed at the Transport Museum?
A rare moment for the Waterloo & City line to shine! As for the London Transport Depot, it’s an absolute must! I don’t understand why that isn’t the ‘main’ museum as it’s much more grander & exciting than Covent Garden.
I was thinking I getting déjà vu with this video - well done all on this project
Jen on the move dressed as a minion. Great cameo!
Such an amazing idea, great job everyone involved
Loved this video (before the copyright issues😂) , combining two of my nerdy interests
I love a good cross-over of interests and this Lego x Underground is unreal. Great execution in an amazing place!
Playing with Lego professionally. That’s the life!
Geoff so Paul does Lego as well as Heritage Trains and Tours for the Museum what ever next - love the fun
Please consider doing the whole thing!
Everyone drink for the mention of Charles Tyson Yerkes.
And that the piece of track collapsed at the point of name check. The hazard of being a tube-you-tuber
I got distracted by the A60 Met Line in the background - a throwback to my childhood!
Chris’ Tube carts are so cool.
Great video and amazing to the whole team! The music sounds great too 🎉
I really really really love this video, it’s like my childhood and one of my favorite RUclipsrs comes together
I feel like Tom Scott would have enjoyed this project
OMKC3! Geoff Marshall, Tom Scott and Half-Asleep Chris collaborating on a video!!!???
Just throw in Jay Foreman and few others at that’s like the Dream Team of British RUclipsrs!!!!!!!
Just brilliant! Lots of fun you all had.
This needs to be an exhibit at the museum...or at the very least they need a working tube replica
This is pretty cool. Great job by you and your team!
Thsi was fantastic to watch, thank you all!
3:05 Surely Charles Tyson Yerkes _did_ use wooden supports in the construction. Somebody put all those put all those jarrah posts under the rails.
I see the Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines were part suspended on this day!
What a huge amount of fun! Sat here like a kid with a huge grin on my face. Great video. :)
Absolutely amazing project, and you have awesome friends who turn out to support your crazy ideas. The most fun video in London transport history!
An awesome build there. Nice to see everyone chipping in. Great video Geoff.
Loved the first video, now loving this one 😂
Do the New York Subway as there are so many lines (it might take up the whole depot though)
Epic video, really great idea. The shots from above of all the trains going round the lines was wonderful. Congrats on a great fun concept.
Lovely without all that sly muzak. The open access stuff is So much more ..... open 👍
I love the tube and Lego!!! This looks like so much fun was had by all. Love the mini Lego Geoff!!x
I like how this video is nerdy, cute and informative
This looks amazing, I would like to see what this would be like if this was done with the whole map
Slight poetic license with the Circle Line being a complete circle but hey it looks brilliant!!! All the hard work was definitely worth the overall result!!!! 👍👍😃😃👏👏
This looks like ssooooo much fun.
Please tell me it's going to be on display somewhere....
Absolutely BRILLIANT!🤩🔝💥
Loved this video, Geoff - trains and Lego - an unbeatable combination!
well all i can say is WOW what a great idea of something fun to do for you and your friends, you all must have had so much fun.
Most of your videos make me smile, but this one especially! Thanks!
This was like everyone on my dinner guest list in one video. You guys are the best. ❤
This is awesome, thanks for this mega collab of a video

Oh well commenting again! Well done Geoff, Chris, and everyone involved! Brilliant idea and brilliant execution of it! This is the one I've enjoyed the most in a long time love it 😊 😊
The models look great especially for it also being motorised.
Once opening this video from my notifications - I fully expected this to be a Half Asleep Chris video 😆 Thanks for the video as always, Geoff!
That’s looking great. I have been a LEGO fans before. And I haven’t thought of doing this.
This is so cool! I’d love to do a random fun project like this with friends, amazing job :D
Nice one Jeff. Enjoyed it even better the second time around as I watched it from the comfort of my lounge instead of on the bus.
Question, why were some of you wearing covers on your shoes?
Geoff Marshall + Half-asleep Chris… this video was destined to be nothing but superb!
Now I want a Lego tube network with live train location data in my secret Lego for London lair.
“Waterloo & City Line is partly suspended” love that lol
Apperently there was a flooding on one platform, so the trains were only carrying passengers in one direction
Lego is an underrated form of Train modeling. It never ends.
If the world ever went into lockdown, you have something to film for youtube
3:10 That was perfectly timed!
Also this is really cute!
Not unlike those paranormal videos though, where everything happens just out of frame...
We need UK Dept Boards to do some magic here… Imagine real time trains moving!
I liked it the first time; liked it more the second time!
:-)
Great video Geoff, you and Jen should do a tube race video.
