Oh I get it now! The circular wedge piece is the bit that was "cut off" by the floor! Combine the wall with that wedge piece and you get the "full circle"!
modern art feels a little unsatsifying to me in that sense. like is that all there is to this artwork? is there more meaning behind it? if analyzing this were a homework assignment how would i hit the minimum word count?
These are great! I've seen 3d models of tube stations before but just still images and monochrome, it can be hard to figure out what's going on. The way you colour them and then move around really helps to show what's going on down there. More please!
@@distractionbucket7454 3D animations of big tube interchange stations are gold - well done. I watched the Northern Line / Bank vid after this too. I'd love to see an animation video that shows a tube line following the streets that are above it. The streets could be a trace outline that you can 'see through' from an angle above to the tube tunnels underneath. Just a few stations would be cool. Don't know if it exists or how hard that is to create.
Full circle sculpture - the 'extra' section is the "missing" section 'hidden' under the floor - making a full circle... but where is the "missing" roof section for the ventilation and lights - perhaps they were installed after the sculpture was made?
Maybe the artist wanted to have the sculpture straight forward. So you have the part under the floor and the visible part. And despite of the stuff under the roof you can still see that it's a round tube.
I work within St Pancras International station, since watching this video its saved me more than five minutes walking every morning. I come in from South London (aka via the Victoria Line) and the offices are right outside the entrance to entrance from SPI to the old ticket hall. Avoiding the tunnels not only saves me the best part of 4 minutes walking below ground, it also saves me 3 or so minutes of walking above ground through the station past Eurostar! Incredible really.
Don’t forget the fire. The old ticket hall was the only way out of the station, other than the Midland Road exit, that on the night of the fire was locked - The Thameslink station closed early because it only really existed for rush hour commuters. It is sensible that the new entrance is completely separate for the reason that the only other means of escape was to get on the trains, which were not stopping because people were gettting out and barbecuing themselves in spite of being warned not to go upstairs.
This is definitely a consideration. Toronto is adding additional entrances to a bunch of subway stations, precisely to provide a redundant exit. The fact that they also reduce the distances people need to walk to the nearest subway entrance is just a bonus.
Good point, I did think about mentioning the fire, but I thought it might make the video too drawn out. If I did mention it, I also wanted to make sure I'd done enough research to talk about it properly.
I've never been to King's Cross station. I've never yet visited Britain. But the algorithm recommended this to me, and I inexplicably enjoyed it thoroughly. I shall now be prepared to enjoy this shortcut when I finally do visit the United Kingdom, thank you!
I know in some stations the arrows on the signage changes to control overcrowding. It would be cool to see a 3d model of the different routes through the underground stations that are used (and maybe some shortcuts :p)
When traveling from Tottenham Hale to Earl's Court, I changed from the Vic to the Picc here because the Vic is a lot faster but they're really far away at Green Park. I found that if you ride in the quieter front of the train and go right to the end of the platform at King's Cross, there's a staircase down to the Piccadilly Line platforms which spits you out at the front again
I really appreciate the brevity and information density in this video. Short videos for the win! As someone with a short attention span, I've never understood why there are 30 minute videos to explain a 3 minute concept.
A simple rule of thumb is to follow the signs to 'Euston Road', i.e. the old ticket hall, instead of 'Regent's Canal' which goes to the new one. It's a darned shame they've closed the Pentonville Road exit though, that was fabulously quick for the Victoria line.
i think these channel could really grow with insights into the layouts of stations like this. ive always found it fascinating to think of how the infrastructure beneath our is laid out. the fact there is a whole other world below us is mind boggling
This is great stuff. I also liked your other videos on the changes to bank. Any chance you could tackle the whole bank/monument complex? It's a total maze of entrances and crossovers etc. It'd be amazing to see it all laid out in colour coded 3d
It's very rarely efficient to take a train to an adjacent station, if that's what you mean. If it's two stations or more, then yes, but the next station is normally the same amount of time away as walking, so only do that if the weather is terrible! Same goes for interchanges, if your interchange / connection is one station away, consider walking to the next station, rather than enter > find platform > wait for train > board > alight next station > find next platform > wait > board... just walk to the next station and enter at your interchange station unless the weather outside is madness and you're not prepared for it. As you move away from central London, that changes, as the stations are spaced further apart.
Regarding 'Full Circle', isn't it just that that bit of the circle is what would be under the floor - therefore, by placing it up here, the total area of the art piece is, indeed, a full circle?
Great description. When I was in London in March 2018, my hotel station was Mornington Crescent. There was a planned protest at King's Cross and we had to get off the Northern line (coming from London Bridge) and they directed us through the long passageway to get out. I wish I'd known about the shortcut because it would have massively decreased our travel time to get back to our hotel.
An excellent move you win, the game! (See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mornington_Crescent_(game) for those that have no idea what I'm on about!) But yeah, that must have been a very annoying walk!
I travelled from Old St(N. Line) to Victoria station (changing from the Northern to Victoria line and Kings Cross) for 15 years. The info this video is 100% spot on..well done
Was recommended this video recently, can definitely feel that your channel is set to bloom soon to join the ranks of other tube nerds, keep up the good work 👍
My heart sinks at these super long connections. Back in the day I used to get the Thameslink from time to time. True, you were beached some way from the rest of the connections but you were still in King's Cross. Now, it's like you get almost half way to Kentish Town and have to walk back to King's Cross. Without getting in to the full story, this excellent video would benefit from a line or two dropped to give a nod to the fire. Because the underground was a service used virtually by everyone in the city at one time or another, one couldn't help but feel affected by that tragedy.
A video showing the whole history of the station, including plans like Crossrail2, would be amazing to see. Same for the other main stations & interchanges.
Excellent, keep up the good work. Maybe Leicester Square next. Changing between the Northern and Piccadilly Lines, at one end of the train it's a relatively short walk. At the other end it's a walk of similar length to the Kings Cross long walk.
Interestingly I didn't know this, not because I didn't know about the old layout, but because I've always just gone the way I know which is the old way to and from St Pancras which now goes through the sub surface ticket hall and the old ticket hall. One time I did get caught in a crowd (back when the 2012 Olympics were on) and ended up going the long way to the northern ticket hall, but I assumed I'd just gone the wrong way and didn't realise that I'd actually gone the "right" way.
I used to use KX quite frequently before the new route was put in. On my less frequent visits since I just used my old route on autopilot. It was quite some time before I realised I was going the "wrong" way.
@2:49, I watched 'Secrets of the London Underground' with Tim Dunn and Siddi Holloway yesterday. One of the places they visited was King's Cross station and there is actually an access door in the sculpture to a disused area.
a simple trick for King’s Cross tube station will be no matter where you’re going, always look for the Euston Road exit 😂 (except going to St Pancras from the Northern line, changing between subsurface and deep-level lines, or looking for lifts)
I've worked out the trick to King's Cross St Pancras: it's to always go at the south end of the train. Your diagram also misses out the little stairway from the Piccadilly line up to the Victoria line by the escalators.
Thank goodness for that last line: "No, I don't get it either". I know for a fact I would have felt five times worse* if you hadn't said that! * it doesn't really make sense to say "five times worse" because I felt good after the video ended. I guess that feeling is a mixture though - positive feelings from understanding the reasons for the long walk, mixed with negative feelings from not getting that art piece. Those negative feelings were shrunk to a fifth of their size when you said that line, and were now also accompanied by new positive feelings of belonging. By the way, this is the very first video of yours I come across and I have a feeling I'll be subscribing real soon
Having worked on this project, I'd say this is fair enough. It's easier to think of the 'long walk' as a bypass going around a town. Would you rather take the bypass, or go through the town centre? Not only that, but it allows you to traverse a whole city block in the dry, and away from traffic
@@picobyte of course. The 'long walk', or 'hub level passage' as it was known in the design stage, links the Picc and Vic lines with the North Ticket Hall, all of which are clearly signed
I think the answer in both cases is "it depends". There are quite a few places where the bypass is great if traffic is heavy, but at quieter times it's faster to go through the town centre. Local knowledge and knowledge of alternative routes can often lead to faster journey times either driving or on foot compared to the "official" routes, even if sometimes it relies on most people using the "proper" route leaving the unofficial route quiet.
I would love to find this kind of model for more stations around the world, even just the passenger areas. Do you make them yourself and if yes where do you find the plans?
It seems to me that a lot of tube stations are like that. I think the reason for the long walks is that a crowd will naturally thin out, meaning not everyone arrives at the ticket barrier (or the next train) at once.
Excellent explanation. I don't suppose you could do Tottenham Court Road next? There used to be a shortcut between the Northern and Central lines, but I can't figure out where it's gone in the rebuild for Crossrail.
Maybe because the Underground station is shared with St. Pancras International and King’s Cross and can handle millions of people passing through to interchange between tube and train.
This is excellent, and the first video I've seen of yours. New subscriber! Great voiceover, but there was a tapping noise in the background at first, that made me stop the video to check if someone was knocking at my front door.

2:53 "Full Circle"": It looks like if you add the bit of a circle to the wall behuind it, you get a complete circle - hence "Full Circle" as the artwork's title.
The only thing I get about that 'sculpture' is that if you take the crescent in front and sink it into the floor you'd have a circular panel, a full circle if you will
The reason it's called "full circle" is because the added curve would be the amount of the circle cut away by the floor, so with it there, the circle is complete?
Is there is some other obstruction above what the model kind of implies is an escalator/stair shaft that is no longer in use, it looks like that is already most of what would be needed for anther entry/exit.
If you mean the link to the old Metropolitan/Thameslink- that is still in use in peak times, but it comes out miles away from the rail stations, so isn't heavily used. I might include more detail on that in a future video at some point.
Great video old king's cross 3D Model of the station Are you use Victorian line quite a lot I do not like kings cross walkway to get out of the ticket way I find a walkway Costa phobic And the sidewaysOn not very good I give you need help there's not enough staff to help you that in the station If you can avoid king's cross do not use their Tube station
2.15 the short cut highlighted in pink ie up escalators to old ticket hall. It would have been EXTREMELY helpful to have paid attention to what you were watching. You muppet.
Probably for the same reason already mentioned. They were building underneath a very big rail station, and probably had to avoid a ton of things while digging.
I can totally understand that- in this case it was a result of still figuring out how I feel about respecting people's privacy while filming in public and deciding to err on the side of caution.
Put Simple....Possible: To put in place safety measures as a result of the 18 November 1987 fatal FIRE/31 Deaths [RIP]/100 injured...'THE LONG WALK IS [A] GOOD EXERCISE'. 👍🏿I hope those injured are now fully recovered etc✍🏿

I remember my joy when I rediscovered the old ticket hall on the way from Kings Cross to the Piccadilly Line by following my nose and not the signs

Using the Euston Rd exit is the quick way out and will connect with St Pancras.

You're just being piccy.
It seems to me that a lot of tube stations are like that. I think the reason for the long walks is that a crowd will naturally thin out, meaning not everyone arrives at the ticket barrier (or the next train) at once.

Really interesting but was hoping for some advice on how to follow the shorter route described. Another video :-)
Pink higlights at 2:15 is all the advice you need, no? Though he could indeed have used more concrete wording than "if you know what you're doing"
FYI originally the connection to the piccadilly was the other way round, essentially a continuation of the route from the old escalators \m/

I take the lifts, if you come from Green Park, you just need to take two lifts and you've saved about 20 minutes walk
I have a suggestion to do stations like Liverpool Street & Paddington with Crossrail
The only thing I get about that 'sculpture' is that if you take the crescent in front and sink it into the floor you'd have a circular panel, a full circle if you will

You should call this video series "The Tube Explained with Tubes."
Can you do Stockholm Tunnelbana-Centralen? It can take you ages from to get out from some platforms if you take the wrong route.
If you think that's long, try Hong Kong at Causeway bay! (namedropper)
Very interesting even I’m not gon visit London nor kings cross any time soon.
there's something very fishy about kings crustacean.
What about the Hammersmith and City Line?
Enjoy the walk
I would like to see where the lift shafts are as the Kings X St. Panc lifts confuse me every time I use them.
Might do that sometime, it does amuse me how the lift system is so complicated it comes with it's own maps!

Depends what exit you use on platform, walk to the far end and no long walk...
Great video but the sound seems to have been recorded in the bathroom.
The long walks discouraged my mother from using the Tube when she was in London.
Ace! Do some more 😃👍
I noticed "full circle". I remember just staring at it and thinking "WHYYYYYY????" but never saw the sign where it showed its name and who made it
I do get the art. The tunnel is round.
The bit of material in front is the 'missing floor part' of that circle.
Simple and probably quite expensive 🤔😎

Great video old king's cross 3D Model of the station Are you use Victorian line quite a lot I do not like kings cross walkway to get out of the ticket way I find a walkway Costa phobic And the sidewaysOn not very good I give you need help there's not enough staff to help you that in the station If you can avoid king's cross do not use their Tube station
Interchange, more like a workout!
All that info and you didn't explain the shortcut? Dude!?
Would have been EXTREMELY helpful if you actually showed us the shortcut instead of some weird abstract 3D diagram
2.15 the short cut highlighted in pink ie up escalators to old ticket hall. It would have been EXTREMELY helpful to have paid attention to what you were watching.
You muppet.
Why on earth would they build a tunnel that long without making it wide enough to have moving walkways?
Probably for the same reason already mentioned. They were building underneath a very big rail station, and probably had to avoid a ton of things while digging.
i think i should've done that at Bank
This interchange gives me road rage
I do wish people wouldn't use blurred images in their videos. It causes eye strain and adds nothing to the presentation.
I can totally understand that- in this case it was a result of still figuring out how I feel about respecting people's privacy while filming in public and deciding to err on the side of caution.
on the screen, you spelt *Piccadilly* wrong!
Fab model
Now do Green Park!!!
Hear, hear! Never could understand why that interchange had to involve such a bloody long trek.
I might have to look into doing that one in future- it is one of the other infamous "long walks"
Wld be useful to have a walk through video showing us actually where to go in real life ...
You really did not get full circle? I think it’s funny.
I Always thought it was the nudge unit delivering healthy living by promoting walking. #alwaystrustthegovernment
Put Simple....Possible: To put in place safety measures as a result of the 18 November 1987 fatal FIRE/31 Deaths [RIP]/100 injured...'THE LONG WALK IS [A] GOOD EXERCISE'. 👍🏿I hope those injured are now fully recovered etc✍🏿
take a long walk off a short pier - it's good for you.
