Excellent film - the best there is of the WCML from Euston to Rugby, post the PUG1 upgrade completed in 2008 which involved new ladder connections and modernisation of the catenary, which was installed in 1964-65. The Class 350/1 emus operate at 110 mph so now use the fast tracks. Topical comparison: Johanna Konta's first serves at Wimbledon this month (July 2019) are recorded typically at 110 mph. Imagine a hitting a tennis ball coming at you at the speed of this train.
I grew up in Rugby and my family are from Kilsby. spent many happy times at Rugby watching the trains roll in and out and spent happy times at the Kilsby Tunnel. Thanks for uploading a great video.
Used to live nr. Rugby station - spent the first night with the window open listening to the trains till 2 am! Seen lots of changes since '78. Thanks, super quality ride.
Used to live in Rugby too. It was 1968 when I last did this journey. The countryside near Rugby reminds me of Southern Victoria, AU where I live now......................
@@davidrichardson376 just came across this video some how and i live i Rugby. Its a shame the station is getting very modern. The old building is now used as storage and degrading!!
My first great love was riding the BR blue express trains to Euston, but mostly the ride between Kilsby tunnel and home, Rugby. Thank you for this video.
Cracking spot of a 86 and a 37 at Willesden :) I have always preferred the WCML over the ECML for travelling, a few weeks back I came down from Glasgow on a 390 and what a pleasant comfortable journey it was. OK I missed the good ol' slam door where you could have your head angled out the window a bit with your camera and it always catches me not to see the ol' EPB type stock running on the 4th rail zipping in and out of Euston or the express EMU's up to the midlands or standing at platform end watching the old 85 shuffling coaches to and fro from the stables and the incoming howls of the 86's and 87's as they sneaked in. Happy days :)
I love cab views on quadrupled main lines when we're on the fast line (down fast in this case). I end up watching the signals on the down slow line predicting when we will catch up and overtake a stopper. Cheers.
Great. Years ago I used to go London to Birmingham every week. I remember once for some reason the train had to stop in the long tunnel (Kilsney Tunnel?) before Rugby. We stopped right under one of the ventilation shafts. It seemed very ghostly!
shlomzion can you please identify all stations and junctions on your videos, it would be a big help to this old yank in learning the rail system in England. Very good video
Me too. I've been waiting for something like this. Before, my dad showed me this and persuaded me it, on video, can as good as seeing it on the actual fast train. However, I wasn't keen on it - it wasn't the same for me at that time.
GREAT VIDEO that would be a joy to drive that line signals clearly visible long before you get to them no risk of a SPAD I wish I lived in England so I could drive that line instead of here in New South Wales Australia like some get all the luck,
14:50 At this point you're more or less underneath the Harry Potter film studios, so if you come out of the tunnel and see flying cars you'll know why. That or there's been a major pile up on the M25.
I Did work on the GWR Paddington area in the 80's. Always wanted to be a Train driver though. I , finished up working as a shunter in Acton West yard. No not quite the same I know. Not sure what happened there, but never followed my dream I guess. Hated the shunting job though, finished up working in a station booking office in the end.
would have been better with a few captions as to stations passed through and names of tunnels and junctions. for those who dont know the route, otherwise excellent video
Me too, I dont envy the drivers trying to stay awake, as the rhythm of passing.under the masts is hypnotic. With the TPMS beeps I suppose it keeps the driver alert.
Finally! This is something I wanted to see! (The sound of the clickety-click clackety-clack when gliding on the track is enough to make me fall asleep, but not the beeping with it, sounds very annoying.) Also, this makes me realise how long this journey is going to be. 32:06 at Milton Keynes Central, "Please make sure that you have all your personal belongings with you at all times. And please take care when stepping from the train onto the platform. Thank you for travelling with London Midland." 33:08 "Welcome aboard this London Midland service to Crewe. We will be calling at: Rugby, Alley, Atherstone, Tamworth, Litchfield Trent Valley, Rugeley Trent Valley, Stafford, Stoke on Trent and Crewe. The next stop will be Rugby." 34:50 "Please do not leave any belongings unattended. They may be removed without notice. Please familiarise yourself of the safety notices displayed around the train."
Me too. BR never did fully sort out the high unsprung mass of the 86s, so the punishment they meted out on the track meant pretty bad ride quality on the WCML fast lines until the 90s took over!
Around Blisworth (42.40) - a Civil Engineers siding appears on the down side. That is all that it is left of a junction and a once extensive array of sidings here. The wide span OHLE masts are a clue, so other lines no longer in existence, were wired too.
Hi David, that looks like Kenton to me. The second to last stop before the northern Bakerloo line terminus of Harrow & Wealdstone. The track is shared with London Overground stock which surpasses H&W up to Watford Junction

32 minutes for 80 kilometers from London - Milton Keynes?! I call that very fast, because also as the first 5 minutes were a bit slow. I mean Watford - MKC is 19 minutes. The stoppingservice takes from 34 to 40 minutes!

AWS (Advance Warning System) and/or TPS (Train Protection System). The driver has to respond within a pre-determined time frame (of the order of a few seconds) otherwise the train brakes are automatically applied.
Yes. And the continuous tone means the light is not green - in that case the driver has to acknowledge this sound by pressing a button, otherwise the train will make an emergency stop.
@@glitch4465 Yup. Slow line platforms were taken out of use c1920 when the DC lines were opened. The station was renamed from Loudoun Road at the same time.
Its a measure introduced to mitigate the risk of "read across". You are approaching a signal gantry on a curve its all to easy to read across and sight the wrong signal, especially in darkness! If you are allocated a letter, in this case 'D', you then look for the next D and so on. The entrance to Leeds is another example and has multiple tracks on a long curve- uses the same system!
Track circuits sense the position of the train and automatically set the signals to red when they enter a section. After that, signals are slowly released through single yellow, double yellow and green as the train passes subsequent signals unless the signallers hold them at another setting for safety or other train movement reasons. About 30% of the UK signalling is completely automated BUT everything has a fail-safe system and virtually all accidents are caused by a SPAD (Signal Passed At Danger). UK train crews are incredibly professional and even small mistakes (minor speeding etc) can result in suspensions, retraining and dismissals. If you really interested in how basic signalling works there is a great example in this video starting at 52:25 where the driver approaching Rugby is 'given' a double-yellow which causes them to slow down, this is followed by a single yellow where the driver slows more because the next signal could be at danger/red. When the train actually approaches it you can see that it is red at 53:25, but watch carefully as it 'steps up' to green and the junction indicator 'feather' (additional white lights) show the driver that the route ahead is actually clear, but the train will be passing through a turnout and heading off the mainline to the right.
Yeah as kim says...the red aspeect ensures no train after is in same block as ours.and will turn to green proceed aspect when we leave the block ...the subsequent trains are held at yellow aspect or two yellows depending on where our train is in block..same goes for our train in regards to the train ahead of us in next block...the signals are self controlled by the sensors,unless the controller sees something the signals miss...and he can then overide them and set signals accordingly.
russell morgan thx for that, but how would the lights change if the sensors are covered in deep snow and the snow as been frozen from frost, is that where a signaller would earn his money as the saying goes,
@@tonyp011 if there is a climatic issue it has to be rectified by Network Rail, but in the short term there is usually a signaller controlled movement until NR can diagnose and clean up the problem. There are many such events every year, but most can be predicted and delays minimised on this. Frost on railheads really isn't an issue because the weight of the train quickly clears the problem and snow doesn't usually conduct to the point that it becomes a problem.
Im a big fan of our railways but the tracksides in towns etc is a fkin disgrace...rubbish everywhere,apart from work stuffs,which is needed,or network is sometimes embarrasing,...watch vids of german or french railways...neat and clean...people take pride in their country...we dont...well a lot dont...its a shame.

There's something oddly therapeutic about watching these cab ride videos
Tony Merrett i agree, satisfying to watch.
ya true, the noise and vision is kinda addictive, once you start watching you continue. dont know why..

Some of the very best cab ride videos on RUclips.. The WCML approach to Rugby isn't the same now the birdcage has gone.
Rugby was one of the last Victorian mainline stations on the WC network. Now wrecked, of course.
I love cab ride videos always interesting and curious

They don't do DOO, but at a few stations including Euston and Bham New St the 'right away' (RA) indicators are used to despatch all trains.

Barely ⅒ of Brit videos feature more than 2 minutes' worth of sunshine..must drive them islanders crazy!!
Meaning there's not much sunshine being filmed on camera of the British atmosphere.
I love the island! I can just walk from lands end to John o groates in one day with no sweat! And the sun only comes out for deserving natives so nerrrr..

@@jondoglegs7124 837 miles walking in a day? I'd like to see you do it!!!
Wonder what the Victorians would make of the lineside garbage,graffiti and vegetation?.Woeful lack of respect for our environment in todays world.
The graffiti plague is tragically everywhere. In any major city you'll find it, and I just don't understand the mentality of those who do it. I used to love the city of Athens, but in recent years the place is just covered in these mindless splurges.
Hi! Me again. I had asked 5 days ago if you were planning any new videos or not. I'd appreciate a reply! Regards, Dana Mack

No named stations...pathetic!
Follow it on a map if you're that concerned.
Obviously preferred not to, just check yourself then
