London Underground Bakerloo Line Exposed!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- A never before seen view of the Bakerloo line, starting from London Road depot, bringing a train into service northbound terminating at Queens Park.
I describe many different elements of the signals and track equipment for train or underground enthusiasts with enhanced visibility.
*DISCLAIMER* I have edited the footage of being on platforms to reduce the video length and to keep this content interesting. Each station has a different "dwell time" which is a suggested countdown for customers to exit or board the train.
If you enjoy this video please subscribe to my channel and you will be able to see the southbound journey plus many extra episodes soon.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please leave a comment.

The feedback I have had from everyone has been phenomenal!
I cannot express enough how your words of encouragement mean to me and this little project.
I do need some help in getting these videos out to more viewers, I am currently unable to explain why, but I really need to keep the views rising so that I can continue this series.
If you are able to share this video that would be perfect 👍
Thank you so much for your support! 😊
Please where is part 4
@@stevenharris4989 I am working on it 😊👍
Really enjoyed your video can't wait for the next one thank you
Really enjoyed your video thanks look forward to seeing next one😊
What an amazing film! Really makes you understand how much you're missing relying only on train headlights.
Thanks for doing this. It takes me back to my school days over 40 years ago. Tooting for primary school and then Milton Keynes until I was 15 when we moved to NZ. I was so into trains and the underground especially (British Rail from MK to Euston and then the Northern Line down to Tooting Bec to visit family once per month or so).
NZ has naff all trains. Auckland is about to get its first underground line. I see folks complaining it is a waste of money etc. I tell them how important the underground was to London's growth and is to its current functioning. London could not do without it. Aucklanders complain about the traffic and do not see how trains can help. I point out that London began getting underground lines when the population was 2 million. Auckland now has 2 million. Build it now, or regret it later.
P.S. I bet kids can not do it now, but back then I knew how to sneak on the tube for free. Bunking off school, seeing every point of interest in London. Arrested at Heathrow when I was nine thinking I could do the same and sneak on a jumbo jet.
Ah we still do, but the world and society has changed so much now and to be honest I don't think its for the best. If you knew what it was like to be a teen now, and compres it to your childhood, it would be very strange.
I also lived in Milton Keynes...well Bletchley...from 1970 until 2003...now I live in Ireland...what part of MK did you reside..I also spent 14 years on the railway.
fircroft?
Although its old i will forever have a soft spot in my heart for the bakerloo line and the 72 stock it takes me back to when life was simple and breezy Great video keep up the phonomenal work!
That's the 2nd time it's had the oldest stock on the system in recent years. It was the last to have a full run out of 1938 Stock in the 80's (but not the last line to operate them, as the Northern regained 5 previously withdrawn 1938 Stock trains for use in peak hours). With memories of 1959 Stock also running on the Bakerloo, it seems strange that the 1972 Stock is now the oldest.
This has got to be the best video of the underground ever. Thank you.
Thank you for a most enjoyable trip through the London Underground tunnels, it allowed me to experience something that would otherwise be impossible. For future videos please could you add the name of each station stop to the screen on approach to the station, otherwise an excellent production !
Thank you so much for your kind words Roger 😊
A few people have asked me to do the same, I'm currently working on episode 2 of 6 and I'll modify the format 😁👍
Was going to make the same comment. Great video though. Fascinating to get a driver's-eye view and makes me realise the amount of work which must be involved in maintaining all those miles of tunnels, etc. Thank you for uploading this.
Just watched the full series very informative for the Bakerloo line I will be back.
@@dippytoots369 thank you very much 😊
Thanks for making this series! Love that you have a torch so we can actually see the tunnels and the narration of where we are and what train movements are possible there 👍
What can I say but WOW!!! This is brilliant. Such great work. This was a real brilliant and fantastic watch. Please, Please, Please do some more!!! Best Drivers eye view on RUclips as u can see everything.
Thank you so much for this. I have a close friend who is a retired Piccadilly line driver (I/O) and has he told me many tales about his working life. Thanks to this video I have a much greater understanding of the working details he refers to.
Thank you very much for your kind message 😊
Really enjoying this. Will have to watch the others. Particularly like the fact you can see inside the tunnel instead of it being black. Like the way you switch the light off before entering the station. Excellent work - Thank You
Seen a couple of tube videos now but this is one of the best with the way you light up the tunnel and the information captions
Thanks very much Stephen 😊👍
Episode 3 will be up soon!
Would be really an intersting bit if before starting entering the cab was filmed & a little introduction to the controls in the cab. Really enjoyed seeing this form the drivers experience & I had traveled for so many years on the tube trains.
Thanks so much!
The gap in the tunnel approaching Edgware Road was for the crossover from when it was the terminus of the line from 1907-1913. Can't find when it was removed but it was removed prior to 2002.
That's great information, thank you!
I am very keen to learn the complete history of the Bakerloo line and document it in full 👍
Interesting to see the link to the Jubilee Line
Long long before 2002. It was almost certainly lifted with the extension of the line to Paddington, given the signal box closed 01/12/1913. It was certainly gone by 1940, which is the earliest diagram I have access to
Interesting.
Don't remember it being there in the 80s.
Thank you for a brilliant journey through London's tubes! And very educational too. Here in Stockholm we have bedrock underneath our feet so it's completely different! That means that the tunnels have been blasted out and thereby more spacious.
Thank you for your nice comment, I would love the opportunity to explore underground systems of other countries!
Stockholm is one of the world's most beautiful cities, and your subway is also! Watching this, it's shocking how tiny the tunnels are, in the deep-level tubes.
The best they could do in the mid-1800s, I guess, but they must regret not making them somewhat bigger, when they had the chance.
@@EElgar1857 most definitely, I guess because it was cutting edge at the time and they didn't think about "future proofing" too much.
And to imagine the first underground trains were steam!
It is a very old system now and there are so many layers upon layers of technology advancements throughout the network.
@@EElgar1857 i've heard Glasgow is Even smaller.
@@ivarnordlkken8082 Yes, indeed! I believe Glasgow has the smallest trains & tunnels of any underground system in the world.
And it's just one circular line.
Excellent 'Driver's Eye View' video!!
You get a much better sense of speed with the light on!!!
Even for me driving it was fascinating being able to see more in the tunnels. I had to turn it off coming into platforms for obvious reasons! 😂
@@awesomecreationschannel Really enjoyed the light for the tunnels. In other videos it's always dark and you can't see what's going on. I hope you do more videos I think they're the best on RUclips!
Paddington was my old stamping ground when I was a guard on the Hereford to London trains, great video.
Absolutely awesoome footage, especialy with the headlight / torchlight!. Thank you so much for revealing so much of the secrets of the underground. Well done!
I was offered the job as a tube driver at Golders green . I wanted morden But golders green was to far for me as I lived in Kingston . So then they offered me a job as a bus driver at Fullwell been driving busses since 30 odd years now . Keep up the good work .
Many thanks. Lots of questions built up over the decades using the UndergrounD finally answered.
Lovely video. To be honest, text's like this and teaching you things actually make these cab rides more fun to watch. Usually I don't watch cab rides unless the Driver part is filmed. But now I will watch cab rides like this! You've earned yourself a sub. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Joe, thanks very much for your kind words 😊
I'm taking all feedback on board and I'm hoping to provide even more comprehensive episodes in the future.
I have just invested in some professional recording equipment so I can provide good quality commentary to the video, please let me know your thoughts on how it turns out in the future, I will be keeping the on screen text though so don't worry about losing that 😊
@@awesomecreationschannel 🤪😊
Enjoyed riding along with you! Thanks for the cab ride video and commentary. In particular the details about signals and train operations.
Greetings from Portland, Oregon, United States of America.
I was born in Kingsbury, London NW9, grew up around there. Queensbury (Bakerloo line at the time) was our local station. Spent many a journey as a passenger on the old 1938 tube stock.
The Stanmore to Baker Street, when operated as the Bakerloo Line, brings back great memories for me. Now it's called the Jubilee Line (it was to be the Fleet Line in the late 1970s. Plans change...) The new (to me at least) Bakerloo line through Kenton and Harrow is interesting. My travels there were typically by double-decker bus.
Looking forward to more of your travels!
Thank you very much for your comment Peter 😊👍
Many thanks for this informative and entertaining video; from a long-retired HMRI officer.
Are you planning om doing this kind of 'Exposed Line' video with any other Tube lines (and your Uber-Torch!)?
Would be very interesting to actually be able to see all the abandoned and disused Stations on the Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines, for example.
Yes am planning on covering more lines in the future 😁👍
@@awesomecreationschannel Brilliant! The quality of your videos will no doubt give those old 'Video 125 - Driver's Eye View' VHS's a run for their money :D
Great vid. The torch makes the world of difference to the enjoyment - so much better then just travelling in the dark.
Brilliant. Lots of little details explained. I love the ’72 stock and always ride in the motor cars to hear their fantastic (Pst, CLUNK, tap-tap-tap-tap-tap) RPA control system.😊
They are a stock with a lot of character! I really want to try and get into the depot to see one stripped down, especially the TBC mechanism 👍
Recently came across these gems. Had watched the London Road stock moves some years ago and was surprised to learn about the bits of tunnel not in the public domain
@@peterlane354 interesting fact about the London Road depot, Number 1 road is the tightest turn on the entire network, it's only a short turn but the speed is less than 5mp due to the risk of derailment which is very challenging because we're also traveling uphill and we can stall the train if we're not careful!
Very interesting watch! I’ve only seen the Bakerloo line as it appears in TSW, so it’s really neat being able to watch part of the real journey with the explainers along the way.
Thank you for your nice comment 😊👍
Wow that tunnel at speed at 7:15 is like something out of Dr Who. Love the clip.
How awesome are you making this for us to see what its like from a drivers perspective. Love it
Thanks Craig, I think your flying videos are more awesome! 😂👍
Damn the wide angle lense is really trippy...
When you come in at around 30, it feels like you're entering at around 40 or 45, which is way too fast. I keep thinking you're about to overshoot 😂
I always enjoy videos like this, it's always interesting to see subways and such.
I've got 3 more episodes coming for the rest of the line, if you could be kind enough to subscribe to my channel, you won't miss them 😊👍
@@awesomecreationschannel I already did before making that comment
@@madmax2069 thank you very much 😊 👍
Great video, hope you will post more tube videos. Have subscribed!
Thanks very much I really appreciate it 😊👍
I've got 3 more episodes for the rest of the line ready for editing and then a couple more in depth driving.
I’ve been on the Bakerloo Line many times. Very good video as always. 😊
Also similar to CCTV drain inspection camera 😁
True
Love your torch… normally you cant see anything inside tube videos :O
@@FSim4ever thanks very much! I am confident that I have the best quality tunnel video of the Bakerloo line on the Internet! And it was a bit of a risk getting it 😅
So glad I stumbled onto this video today - excellent viewing and the drivers-eye view I’d always loved to see 🎉. Great insightful comments on the videos along side the best soundtrack (The motors, clunks and track squeals), make this an interesting, entertaining and informative series. Hope you will continue. Liked, subscribed and shared! 👍🏽
Thank you very much for your nice comment 😊👍
I just discovered this video. Great, very well done. The explanations and close ups are helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Great videos you make mate!! And I am in awe of them and could watch them 24/7 if I could!! Just some feedback, are you able to write up the station names?
Thanks Kris! I do in the next videos 😁
The speed you enter the station is way higher than I expected, I know the tube has impressive braking but damn! 😂😂
I think the camera makes it look faster than it actually is, but yeah we do come into the platform pretty quickly.
If you think this is fast, wait until you see the Victoria line when I get that recorded! 😂
@@awesomecreationschannel Yeah it probably does and I know it'll look faster from the front than it does as a passenger!
I used the victoria line last week so looking forward to that one! Cheers for sharing.
New subscriber. The views are awesome and your descriptors are educational. Thank you 👍
Great video, only just found it. A lot of very interesting information, well explained. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of your series soon. A couple of questions though. What is the gradient on the line from the London Road depot down to the running lines and how difficult is it getting traction to drive up, back to the depot?
@@simprove thanks very much! I hope you enjoy the rest of the episodes 👍
I don't know the gradient unfortunately but it is quite tricky coming back into the depot.
Stabling road number 1 is the tightest turn on the entire underground network and it has a less than 5mph speed limit uphill or risk derailing!
The other roads are a lot easier but you still have to be very careful not to stall the train.
The Bakerloo line is my favourite so I love this video
I found this fascinating to watch, especially as my grandad was a tube driver for most of his life
What line was he on? This is just episode 1 of 4 in this format, hopefully the other episodes will be as entertaining for you 😊 👍
@@awesomecreationschannel I'm not entirely sure, unfortunately he died when I was a young child. All I was ever told was that he was a driver on the underground. He lived in South Benfleet and didnt have to travel far to start work so I suspect it was the District line
Going along the tunnel with the torch on reminds me of the original opening credits of Dr Who.
Yes! Who's your favourite Dr?
@@awesomecreationschannel I really liked Patrick Troughton... but also Tom Baker... David Tennant has to perhaps be my favourite.
@@awesomecreationschannelI’m more fond with T. Baker or Davison, along with Smith.
I’m a mainline driver & we never fly into (sweep the platform) stations like that. You’ve gotta have confidence in the brake to drive like that. Tube driving is so different to us. All those signals all over the place would drive me mad! Ours are 1 mile or more apart usually. Don’t you blokes go from green to red too? We get bought down gradually. We also call ‘amber’ ‘yellow’.
Do you ever got bored? I think I would. My office window view changes every 2 minutes!
Anyway, nice video with interesting explanations. Thanks.
I'm not a fast driver by any means, especially berthing the train on a platform, the GoPro does make it look slightly faster than it really is, but we do come in faster than you guys.
Our trains weigh a lot less and although the bogie design is old, it still works pretty well on EP brake and Westinghouse.
We do have Green to Red signals because our signaling sections are much smaller than National Rail but half of the Bakerloo line is NR so we do follow those signals too.
We call the aspects Yellow too but I used the word Amber to make it more relatable to non train driving audiences. Yellow/Amber, they are both still the same colour which indicates caution, just like traffic lights 😊
@@awesomecreationschannel Nice one. Thanks for the reply & I hope you upload more tube stuff soon. You’ll probably find it’s quite popular! I’ll certainly watch it.
@@nedseagoon5101 thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 😊
I'm aiming to get an episode out every couple of weeks, I've got most of the footage, I just need to edit which takes time! 😂
What area do you work in? It can get a bit boring on the underground but at least we have a station to stop and focus on every few minutes 👍
@@awesomecreationschannel All over the (cross) country. *ahem
I get about a bit! Loads of route knowledge clogging up my brain!
Fast entry to platforms is essential on the Underground in order to run the necessary high service frequency. It used to be the same on the main line, particularly on suburban services.
Thanks! The explanations along the way were what made this.
Only just seen this mate, love it! 👍 looking forward to more!
Nice to have light in the tunnels!
Please put the station names on the screen. The video quality is too low to read them off the side wall signs.
Thanks for the feedback, I'll add the station names to the next 3 episodes 👍
Was going to suggest the names if no one else did. Other than that...awesome as promised 🙂
You're the best!!! Thanks for sharing with us 😍
Amazing video mate! Nice job! Congrats.!
More videos like these on the London Underground please
27:15 _Horizontal means don't move_
27:35 Let's go anyway!
We get a momentary glimpse of the very edge of the signal here, but it would have been less of a shock to be shown the altered aspect full on. ;)
Very interesting video, thank you.
Ah yes! That's a fair comment! 😂
Off camera the signal changed for me.
I do have better footage of this signal which I will highlight on the next video.
There is so much information going on at this station (Queens Park) that I wanted to explore in episode 2 😊👍
I think that station is the only one that is above ground on the Bakerloo line
@@samuelfellows6923 All of the stations after Queens Park are on the surface.
Thanks for this informative video. If I had the vision I would have loved to drive a tube train. Are you dedicated to the Bakerloo Line only or do you drive on other lines?
Thanks Mark, We stick to the one line we are on, there are a very small group of drivers called test train operators and they learn multiple lines.
Thanks for this. Nice to compare your tunnels with Prague, everything is very different. Also, why are there lights under the platform on some stations? Haven't seen that anywhere else but London.
That's an excellent question Tom! The stations with lights underneath the platform edge are extremely curved, this means when the train is berthed in the platform there are very big gaps between the platform and the train that people might fall into.
You will also notice thick white lines painted on the floor of the track area, this is to highlight any potential persons on the track before we pull away and an incident happens.
@@awesomecreationschannel Oh, interesting. Makes perfect sense.
Just wonderful! Enough said :)
I love the 72 stock trains on the Bakerloo. Such comfy and bouncy seats. Especially the sideways ones.
Hope they don't replace them for many years.
It's more comfortable for the passengers than it is the drivers! 😂
The 72 stock will remain in service until about 2030/35.
Good to fall asleep to until arriving at bloody queens park
Nice Job 🙂👌
@@Sagittarius182 thanks very much, I hope you enjoy the rest of the series 😊👍
That was amazing to see.
There is some old route learning videos of the Bakerloo in on RUclips which show all of the route including the depots.
Wow! What an excellent video, and excellent driving skill on your part! Beautiful lighting too...how did LUL give you permission to use that beast? :)
Thank you for your kind words 😊 👍
Hi and many thanks for this video, it was so interesting, I'm looking forward to watching the next ones!
I have a small question : at 26:10 there is a 15mph speed limit board but you seem to actually be speeding up, how come?
Thank you very much for comment, I hope you enjoy the rest of these episodes 😊
Good spot on the speed limit! Maybe it was the quality of the video, but just underneath the 15 is an arrow pointing right. That indicates the speed limit is 15mph when crossing the points into the South Bound platform 👍
@@awesomecreationschannel Many thanks for your comment! Ah yes I see it indeed! It makes sense, so you sometimes go directly to the southbound platform at Queen's Park? Do you warn the passengers in advance? Looking forward to watching the other episodes, many thanks for the great content!
@@pSAurOnq yes quite often we do to help regulate the service and the drivers should give plenty of notice 👍
Thanks for the interesting video's do drivers have to travel in the dark through tunnels and is it hard on your eyes when you emerge into the light or approach a station,👍
Hi Dave, yes in the tunnels of the Bakerloo line it is very dark and when we emerge from the tunnel northbound at Queens Park it is a bit of a strain, especially if the sun is out!
The platforms are well lit though so we don't spend all of the time in complete darkness 👍
I've watched a number of these videos now and not once have I heard the famous, "mind the gap"! I'm guessing that only occurs at certain stations, probably with prominent curvature.
@@alidycepaisley3829 there is an automated PA system that says mind the gap on certain stations, like Waterloo.
I edited out the station stopping time to keep the video interesting otherwise you would have heard it, sorry!
Going down the tunnels like that looks like some endoscopy thing down someones throat.
Brilliant video!
Great video👍 would you prefer some sort of lighting in the tunnels compared to the darkness seen when your torch is switched off?
(My father who is retired now worked his whole life on the Underground as a signalling engineer out of Earls Court. When I was young he use take me sometimes to the staff mess and canteen at Earls Court for lunch. Good memories 👌)
Thanks 😊 👍
Honestly no, I prefer it darker as it makes the signals easier to see.
Sometimes the tunnel lights are on though if there is a fault with them, which does make an occasional change.
Wait until he does a video on the DLR…. Those, despite being driverless, their tunnels are permanently lit with a string of bulkhead lights on one side.
Just another thought if the next episodes are still work in progress... A still shot of the Tube Map showing the route and stations at the beginning of the video would be really good.
Thanks for the suggestion Roger, I am planning on covering more of the line and its history in one of the later episodes 😊👍
Thank you for lighting the tunnel. Could you make videos on other lines?
I am working on it 😊
wow....awesome to watch as a SW4 player
nice content my friend
Awesome!
Neat video! I assume normally you don’t drive with the extra torchlight, is it not difficult therefore to see the speed limit signs and other boards in the tunnels or are they illuminated separately? Also they seem to fly past so quickly that it would be difficult to read them anyway!
Thanks very much 👍 the extra light is my own addition to help show the tunnels as the stock light isn't good for filming.
It looks faster than it actually is in the video and it is slightly brighter so we can see the signs, but we learn the line and are familiar with the correct speeds in certain areas.
The speed entering the station is so high, the stations appear out of nowhere!
Yes they need to deceklerate rapidliy in order to stop ij time, and make the times. Great stuiff, we love them
Brilliant mate
Absolutely amazing and working for Network Rail and formerly BR for the last 40 years it was an eye opener. Is the line that connects to the Jubilee line still used?
I think maintainance trains might use it occasionally, there are several crossovers of lines they can use.
Thanks for this. When do some signals appear to pulse?
That's just the led light frequency being picked up by the camera. To the naked eye they don't pulse.
Great video.
That's on powerful torch 🔦 you had there
THe title made me think this was one of those this thing EXPESED but it was and cab view video with fun facts of the of my faverate tube line
and with super cleen cuts
Nice! I remember inventing the tube but I never thought it would turn out quite like this.
look how much more you see in really life versus train sim - it's a shame that dovetail never got this right
ah, ok i just seen that there was a torch being used! i take it back haha
Well-played. The torch shows way more. The headlights on the lead car are only so something/someone can see the train coming, not so much for illumination of the tunnel.
Mm and currently the good old Bakerloo (brown) line uses THE oldest stock still in service on the London Tube (from 1972).
I prefer the old stock... though I daresay from a traincrew perspective not so good.
7:23 - PERFECT BRAKEING!
🤣 Thanks!
All of the trains operate differently in regards to the braking and how the driving handle moves, this one was a nice one to drive and record in luckily!
@@awesomecreationschannel do you recall what number it was? 35xx
I don't like the huge text disturbing the hi-res views. Good tech info, though, thanks.
Feedback duly noted. I was careful to position the text in a way not to obscure too much of the interesting elements but I wanted to keep it large enough for people with poor visibility to still be able to read.
I have made an episode with minimal editing and no text for a more ASMR experience 👍
I can't imagine what the conditions were like for the diggers when these tunnels were built. They must have been an exceptional type of people to endure the back breaking work needed to burrow through the ground, and doing it for mile upon mile of track.
Amazing what they achieved and no one gives it a second thought.
Absolutely, I doubt the working conditions were very good either. It is amazing what has been achieved but does anyone actually know the real cost?
How different is the maps the drivers use compared to the ones the public reads every day
Hi Mark, we don't use maps, we learn the different moves done on certain stations from detailed diagrams and the rest of the line we learn whilst driving and memorise it 👍
crikey! talk about 'tunnel vision' ! Great to see all this though.
Thank you for this very interesting video. Could you please answer a question? Do drivers always operate the same route or can you be asked to drive any route?
I'm glad you enjoyed it, there are 2 more episodes of the rest of the route and and another 3 coming.
If you are a drive, you operate the one train on that line. So a Bakerloo driver cannot go and drive on the Northern Line without full line route knowledge and stock training.
The exception to this is a position called Test Train Operator, there aren't many of these positions, but they can drive on different lines and are qualified to drive multiple stock.
@@awesomecreationschannel Thank you for the answer and thank you again for a great video.
That’s just a torch doing all that light??? Why doesn’t the TFL simply retrofit brighter lights onto the trains?
It was a little more than at torch 😁
@16:25 There is a blinking "2 dot Signal" between the tracks and further down a "20" sign. What´s that for ?
Thanks for the light in the tunnel and the explanations.
That was a temporary speed restriction of 20mph.
I thought I'd put that in the video, I do apologise!
@@awesomecreationschannel No need to apologize, you can´t explain every detail in a video.
You showed a yellow 20 speed limit sign with a pre-sign of it in the second part: Queens Park --> Harrow & Stonebridge Park
Interesting
11:07 It sounds like its saying "Time to close the doors".
I can hear : " Please, stand clear of the doors" and its repeated multiple times for some reason.
If it's a particularly busy platform I will either press the door close announcement twice or make a physical announcement.
A quiet time of dayas there are very few passengers on the platforms.
So through running at Q Park takes you down that left hand "road"? How does the south bound train get through/past the workshops? Is there a similar road through over on your right?
Nevermind: I can already see that I will get the answers by watching parts 2 to 5! Bakerloo is not a line I've ever used, from memory.
@@TheClunkingFist thanks for your question and reply 😂 I hope you enjoy the rest of the videos 😊👍
imagine watching that through VR goggles.
I Like The Bakerloo Line
From this view it looks like the Bakerloo Line isn't that slow as I always believed. Ok, I am not from London and the last time I was there in 2014. ^^
The camera does make it look faster than it is I think, but the front perspective is totally different than being a passenger 😊👍
T actually means Termination of Speed, making the driver be able to go whatever speed he/she wants
That's not quite true, I'm not sure why it's a T on the board, but it means normal running speed for that section.
Each section can have a speed limit difference, and then each section can have speed reductions for certain areas.
I don't even need this as I get these all the time
