A solo locomotive moving at speed always seems rather strange, and faintly alarming. It judders about from side to side more rapidly without the dampening effect of a heavy load being hauled behind, and betrays an impression that it might be considering taking leave of the track. And there's something incomplete and ill-proportioned about an engine without its rake of coaches, like a peacock without its long tail feathers.
I love seeing fast trains! I'm super shocked when I see Avanti West coast trains going SO FAST in sharp curves (2:00) because in Spain (I'm spanish) we have high speed lines and I'm not used it see a train faster than 60 km/h in a mainline in a sharp curve. Absolutely amazing!
I suppose it's one of the advantages of British railroads that they can go so fast on curves! And I am very happy to see that some trains are using Japanese-made cars. Great video👍
I suppose advantage is one way to explain it! If we never had the curves in the first place, the entire network would be a lot faster. Hitachi trains are now common on the UK Rail network but there are sadly less of our own UK designed trains. Thanks for watching! 😃
@@StarlifeStudiosJapan actually uses air controlled active suspension to tilt their high speed trains but it only does very little and it only on the new N700 series but the tracks on the Shinkansen are banked heavily up to 5degrees so when you go on a Shinkansen many you might notice the bank especially on the Tokaido Shinkansen at hamamatsu station. In Japan we do have narrow gauge low speed ltexp trains that are tilting like in the uk too
Much appreciated Inky Squid! I wish I could just make these video for you but they are the result of months of filming, video selection and editing. The speed tab is 95% accurate, using me as the reference point, I worked out the speed based on the time from the front to the rear using the video frames and the length of the train. Its a time consuming process but I think the effect is worth it!
Yesss! Trains at speed 2022 edition is here! I love seeing the 390s tilt on the corners of the WCML! Great video, certainly will be looking forward for the 2023 edition!
That shot at 5:45 was epic! You must have been giddy when you saw not one, not two, but 3 at once! Was that pre-planned or by pure accident? Either way, I had to rewatch several times!
Thanks Pigur, I was certainly lucky to catch that! I think I knew that they were coming (from what I remember, the distant headlight caught my eye at 05:40) but I had no idea that a crossover like this was about to happen. I'm usually aware of 95% of what I record but some of it is luck/skill that I face the right way for the one that passes me first. If you want to see good planning, have a look at this moment of my most recent video: ruclips.net/video/avhWwnhZWmY/видео.html 😃
ITS BACK, Welcome to the 2022 Edition of - Trains at Speed UK. I've put a lot of hard work into making this and I hope you will all agree with me that its the BEST yet! CHALLENGE: Post below, what's your favourite train AND which train was the FASTEST ⬇
Woooooo!!! Another banging trains at speed year! Loved this video as usual, and love the new approximate speed, that's cool! Also some great tones to go with it! Loved it!
As a journalist working overseas, I was one of the few lucky ones to board the maglev between Tokyo and Nagoya. It's quiet and stable, and when I closed my eyes, I really could forget that I was moving at 500km per hour.
I'm spannish, and when i was come to UK, i was to do videos on Wembey Central, but i don't go to statford, but when i see it, i will be go to statford for the next time, i vill be go to statford, thanks!
Just found this great channel.. The WCML is in my humble opinion Britain’s flagship route. Can I ask what camera was used as it’s amazing footage? Thanks.
oh my god thats me in the striped shirt at 2:26, was waving to some friends that were on that 319. (also me again at the far end of the platform at 3:13) certainly didnt expect to see myself in this vid aha
@@StarlifeStudios enjoyed it, is an understatement. The timing and positioning, captured the sound beautifully, hard work and getting there, is your skill, and knowing what to photograph. The sounds bring back the youth of another era. Many thanks
May be just me transitioning from watching videos of the Keisei Skyliner in Japan but I find it really interesting how conventional box-shape rolling stock (350 class as an example) are able to hit 110mph//180kmh
This particular run was to accumulate miles before being transferred to the operator - Abellio Greater Anglia. I believe this is fairly standard practice for Alstom products manufactured at Derby. Hope this helps 😃
You were lucky to catch the rainbow livery on the javelin. Apparently it's rare! Can't wait to see the rest of this! (Also I miss the 373, not many in service now)
I actually caught it several times so I guess you could say I'm lucky! The 373s are not as rare as they seem, at least a quarter of all Eurostars are 373s and apprently, theyre the most reliable of the fleet.

Even the rake of mk3s and dvt doesn't stop the chiltern 68s from seriously wobbling about. Although it's unfailingly impressive at the same time.
they are designed to do that they most likely wont fall of the reack because they are not going to go over 200 and then fall of the track
It looks scary 😨 to me.

I love the 373s, such a classic sound. There are few other fast 373 clips in this video too and I'm sure you'll love them too.
The 373s are also known as Eurostars.

@@Daniel718S It's an old technique from the British Rail days, back when we were innovative
germany has faster ones
Why does the Avanti trains seem to be going soo fast even when their doing the same speed as other high speed trains?

What is about trains, especially fast ones, that is so fascinating! I could spend all day watching them, but I could never explain why!
1:39 did anyone else see the camera jolt a bit, i think he got a bit frightened 😂
Fr?
Yeah,a little bit jump attack 😂😂😂🇨🇦
Well filmed! Great video. That shot at 2:03 is epic!
ITS BACK, Welcome to the 2022 Edition of - Trains at Speed UK.
I've put a lot of hard work into making this and I hope you will all agree with me that its the BEST yet!
CHALLENGE: Post below, what's your favourite train AND which train was the FASTEST ⬇
Swallow class 90 or 325 were my favourite this year, and the pendolinos and azumas were going pretty fast
My favourites were the 800s and I think the Eurostars and 390s were the fastest👍
The fastest were the eurostars but my favourites are the 91, 390 and 395
I’m a big fan of your channel 🚂🚂!
Amazing work man. Love watching these lovely trains haul through England
Woooooo!!! Another banging trains at speed year! Loved this video as usual, and love the new approximate speed, that's cool! Also some great tones to go with it! Loved it!
Thanks Tiger Trainz, it took some serious time to make those speed approximations but I think it’ll be worth it. Hopefully this is the best one yet!!
Shooting spots, angles, best shots. That's great!
Glad you enjoyed :)
What a time to be a train, who wouldn't want to ride the screaming rails with these Goliaths of maddening modernity and doplar tooting fun.
0:23 oh wow that was a fast UK 🇬🇧 train l remember.
As a journalist working overseas, I was one of the few lucky ones to board the maglev between Tokyo and Nagoya. It's quiet and stable, and when I closed my eyes, I really could forget that I was moving at 500km per hour.
That's sick
I really appreciate the fact many teens are interested about filming passing train at high speed
I like that they repainted some of the IC 225's in their original livery. They look fantastic
Where?
Good to see so many trains still sporting the Intercity Swallow Livery (the best livery to grace British Railways)
Absolutely! 🙂
Great video. This video inspired my technique taking videos of trains in N Ireland.
Great to hear! 😃
I love your video I watch every single day
What microphone do u use it sounds so FIRE 🔥🔥🔥
Love these ❤. Brilliant video and glad to see these back!
Glad you like them! I wish I could make them more reguarly but my work and hobby don't match very well :(

great Videos!
You got some excellent shots in this, love the speed limits too!
5:52
1 Freight and 2 transport trains at once
That was once in a life time 🤯🤯
Agreed
Have to say, out of all those high speed runs! It has to go to the High speed one! Phenomenal
Yh
I've been waiting for this! Very nice
Number 3, lets gooooo! 😃
@@StarlifeStudios nice to have some different lines as well. Let's see if it gets 150k views like the other ones!
Or even 450k views, lol
