I just love how well-designed and beautiful these trains are... Most metro systems have this ungodly wait between when the train stops/moves and when the doors open/close.
+emptyangel Yeah, although in Berlin for example, the doors often open even before the train has come to a halt, and people start getting off while the train still moves.
Boston has to be the worst example of when the train stops/moves and when the doors open/close. Each train waits four seconds after stopping to open the doors, and waits upwards of seven seconds to get going after the doors close.
I seen these trains being built in bombardier Derby with the S stock and the class 378s. I had the privilege to drive these trains on the test track and I love the 2009 tube stock
Those new trains and upgraded train control makes station arrival-stop-depart process really efficient. Notice how the stop dead on the spot... no lining up required. In fact, they could only make it more efficient by allowing the doors to open below 2mph, similar to (I believe) Berlin's system which allows faster alighting.
I love the Victoria line! It's very fast and has the nicest sounding voice announcer. "The next station is Pimlico. Doors will open on the right hand side."
The Piccadilly Line opened in 1906 and it was operated as a 1973 tube stock. Also, the Victoria Line has opened in 1968 and it was operated as a 2009 stock which came in June 30, 2011. Before it was a 2009 stock, it was a 1967 stock train.
I have probably watched this video over a million times! Love these trains even though I don’t live in London. Great work, I can’t stop watching your amazing videos! :D
Londoner here, these trains run every 1-2 mins in the peak, so overcrowding isnt usually too much of an issue, although the train does always get a bit full every now and then... Personally i think they are the best trains on the network, its the quickest way to get north/south very quickly, although there isnt much of a fast east/west route, central line the fastest but thats always absolutely packed. This is why london has the best tube system ok ive made my point and this proves it :P
@Sxlsty Not a Londoner But in NYC we have some terminus stations (Like Pelham Bay for the (6) 8 Aveune-14th Street for the (L) and 96-2nd Aveune for the (Q)) Trains can run at the same frequency just they have to leave almost immediately if one platform is already used It’s showed on the 7 Line however that might not be a good example since at Hudson yards there are several Miles of storage tracks with trains and a junction right before the station
Andrew Pau Sawm Sian Piang they do. I found Londoner's complained about the tube all the time, from how long they had to wait (even if it was only 5 minute delay) to how dirty it is (it's one of the cleanest subways I've been on) to how it can't get you to where you need to go as if it's a small system (even tho it's one of the largest in the world).
Andrew Pau Sawm Sian Piang Its not true. maybe the service in the south isn't as good as the North, but with so many overground rails and DLR and tram links exc. London has a hell of a system. I lived in the south west end in London for over 2 years, it was amazing compared to Toronto's transit system where I live, which actually is better then most cities in America/Canada and it's crap compared to what London has. Even tho South is a bunch of different networks.
Very good indeed. We love the underground but very rarely visit London now due to age and ''wobbly legs. Love the Glasgow underground as well. Thanks a lot
born and bred in SW9....This is the line that I took for many years and still using to go house of hoops oxford street before we actually got footlocker in Brixton to get them fresh Jays....quick and fast from South to West London. salute to the quickest tube line in the country...💙 💙 💙 🔵 🔵💙🔵🔵💙🔵💙🔵💙🔵💙🔵💙💙
I use the Victoria Line regularly and the trains can be every 30 seconds sometimes and the Metropolitan, Hammersmith & City, Circle and District Line trains have air conditioning by the way
that is not true for the 30 seconds, that is literally impossible and very dangerous, the trains have to be an appropriate distance apart. The shortest time is around 80 to 90 seconds which is one of the fastest in the world, and definitely the fastest in london!
If there were a 30-second headway between trains, it would mean that there are 120 trains per hour running on the line. Currently it only barely manages 36 trains per hour at peak times so it’s still a long way from being a 30-second line 😂
The trains stay at the station neearly for 30 seconds and if a train passes a red light because theres no train at the station it will turn yellow andnit causes crashes
Brixton looks weird now since it's refurbishment; the green and cream tiles on the platforms look rather nice, but you've still got the old two-tone grey on the far side, with blue relief. Good to see the "ton of bricks" motifs are still there..
yes, new trains are much smoother, but I prefer riding on the jubilee line which has the 1996 stock, and the northern line which has 1995 stock, but I also like these stocks from the piccadily line which is nice and classic, and 2009 which is a new stock.
London Underground has always been the fastest way to travel Same for other countries like USA they have their Subway we have TFL US have MTA They're both the same but just different Features And us Londoners we say that London Underground is the fastest way to travel in the whole Country
Whatever happened to the piccadilly line? I can remember a time when these trains absolutely flew, with headways of 1-2 minutes. Now you wait all day for something that goes at walking speed
I'm going back to London on the 19th and i'll be travelling on the underground between King's Cross and Victoria, which is another nice visit to the underground :)
@@Great_WesternTVFan Yes, The stations on the Victoria Line that have sidings where trains can be parked are Walthamstow Central, Victoria, King's Cross St. Pancras, Brixton and some are parked during the night on the tracks out of Seven Sisters that lead to the depot.
The Victoria Line is entirely underground on a public train, but if you are a driver and you head to the Northumberland Park depot you are going overground
wl03bu but in Toronto its common, well it's actually the norm that trains come every 1-3 minutes throughout the day, it's not as if they are far apart. maybe every 4-6 minutes later at night. They are doing many signal construction (have been closing sections of the subway on weekends for seems like ages now) to squeeze more trains in to have trains running even closer to each other. If there was any complaint about Toronto's system it would just be that it's to small of a system for the size of the city.
Yeah I remember going on these from walthamstow central. When I first heard the bang I was literally shitting bricks then I realised it was just the speed it was going at was causing it.
Do you miss the 1967 Tube Stock? I was on it for the last day of service from Finsbury Park to Victoria when I was on holidays for a London visit. I like the 2009 stock as well, very fast, clean, modern and motor noises are perfect. I am from Sydney, Australia though.
Well the 2009 stock is faster and airconditioned so that's what makes it better than 1967 Tube Stock. I am from Sydney so I went to London for holidays and did research on London Underground. Once I found out the 67 stock was being withdrawn leaving 8 on the line I decided to catch the last one on its last day of service.
The 2009 is not airconditioned. The S Stock trains on the Metropolitan, Hammersmith & City, Circle and District Line are the first ever London Underground trains with air-conditioning.
Nice video and from 1:28 to 2:19 you got a 1967 stock which is 3 years younger than the MTA's R32 C J, & Z trains which first ran in 1964 regarding the 2009 stock they would be a cross of WMATA 5000 series and MTA's R142,142A & R188 R143,R160A R160B Siemens due to their acceleration and deceleration. Perhaps the MTA should use a British English style announcement by testing Sienna Miller on the 4,5, & 6 trains
+EpicThe112 That isn't a 1967 stock I'm afraid. It is a 1973 stock that runs on the Picadilly line and doesn't utilize ATO. The 1967 stock had ATO and was used on the Victoria line before they were replaced by the 2009 stocks you see here. They are no longer in service on any Underground line, but the 1972 is an almost exact replica of the 67 stock and is still used on the Bakerloo line to this day.
+Harley Mann thanks for the information and for me I got myself mixed up between the 1967 and 1973 stock since their external appearance looks like each other and for the New York City Subway the R188 & R142A are duplicates just like the 1972 stock on the Bakerloo line
Alle deep-tube Linien haben Einzelwaggons. Vielleicht ist es nicht so einfach durchgehende Übergänge zu bauen weil die Wagen niederflurig und sehr flach sind. Ich weiß es nicht.
It is a channel run by a non-profit organization. We are making an interview video about metro in Tao-Yuan, Taiwan. However, the interviewee mentioned about Victoria Line, and we want to add 9sec from 06:23 to 06:32 of this clip. Is it possible for us to use it?
Depots count the line network. So if every single thing is underground, every single bit of the line network, including the depot, then it's totally underground

Glad they are of help. Yeah, I sometimes edit the departure and arrival to either change the camera angle or to cut a few seconds out for striking a better balance with respect to the pace of the video.
The old Victoria lines are made in 1966 and they updated the staition in 1968. The end of the old Victoria line was in June 15 2012. The new Victoria lines were made in January 1st 2012.
They were made in 2009 you dumb face. If they are made in 2012, they why were there some in 2010?? You stupid face. And the 1967 trains were gone in June 2011, then from August 2011, all trains are 2009 stocks
London underground (on some lines) operates the fastest trains of any 'subway/metro' network. also LU are investing their money on payment methods and stations rather than noisy tracks
TheRenaissanceman65 thy need it for sidings. If trains are going through sidings, then they should. Otherwise you will not know where is the train going or coming.
the design of the trains are one of my favorites, the colors, the shape, the doors, windows, is so amazing
The sound of the trains slowing down just makes me miss pre-lockdown so much 😂😔. Seeing the Piccadilly Line hit hard as well as I used it the most.
We are kind of in pre lockdown levels, until we have a vaccine
I just love how well-designed and beautiful these trains are...

Very nice sound. I listen through headphones. Amazing how sounds good.
i love that warm slightly sweet scent that comes from the train i think. and the warm breeze too!
Nicely shot mini film, when I use the Victoria line I shall now always note how quickly the doors open compared to other lines.
Thank you takes me back so many years. keep safe in these troubled times from a walthamstow lad circa 1968 👍👍
That traction motor sound of these older stocks is so great and deep :D
Those new trains and upgraded train control makes station arrival-stop-depart process really efficient. Notice how the stop dead on the spot... no lining up required.
In fact, they could only make it more efficient by allowing the doors to open below 2mph, similar to (I believe) Berlin's system which allows faster alighting.
These new trains are better than the rubbish bakerloo line trains

Why does the Piccadilly line make a hissing sound when it’s about to leave the station? It also does it while stopping🤔
Victoria line problems:
When you wanna go to Walthamstow Central but two trains in a row is headed for Seven Sisters...
This is fixed now after they did work at Walthamstow Central. All trains go there now
@Sxlsty they literally closed Walthamstow for 3 weeks in august to fix this. It used to be 3/5 of trains went to Walthamstow and now it is almost all
@Sxlsty and also Victoria line manages to turn all 36 trains around at Brixton
@Sxlsty Not a Londoner
But in NYC we have some terminus stations (Like Pelham Bay for the (6) 8 Aveune-14th Street for the (L) and 96-2nd Aveune for the (Q))
Trains can run at the same frequency just they have to leave almost immediately if one platform is already used
It’s showed on the 7 Line however that might not be a good example since at Hudson yards there are several Miles of storage tracks with trains and a junction right before the station
often later in the day trains terminate at seven sisters heading south only going from walthamstow to seven sisters to turn back to the depot
the traction motors on the 2009 stock trains sound awesome

I like the noise when they come into the station
So do I.

The old Victoria lines are made in 1966 and they updated the staition in 1968. The end of the old Victoria line was in June 15 2012. The new Victoria lines were made in January 1st 2012.
They were made in 2009 you dumb face. If they are made in 2012, they why were there some in 2010?? You stupid face. And the 1967 trains were gone in June 2011, then from August 2011, all trains are 2009 stocks
Abel stop spreading false information 🤦🏿♂️
Why do these trains make such a loud sound on the track?
Atleast one factor is that there is no ballast on the track, so it vibrates and doesn't quiet the sound.
London underground (on some lines) operates the fastest trains of any 'subway/metro' network. also LU are investing their money on payment methods and stations rather than noisy tracks
The junctions. It happens with the central line if you head East from Bethnal green
Victoria and Jubilee line are my favorite London Underground lines!
Same
👍
Awesome video :)
Now *this* is efficient!
you showed the piccadilly line too
The Victoria Line opened in 1968 and it was built for speed.
from asia subway video to london underground...i feel the different. lol
Eropa punya bro jelas beda kualitasnya
the tunnels got no lighting? All LU tunnels have no lights?
TheRenaissanceman65 thy need it for sidings. If trains are going through sidings, then they should. Otherwise you will not know where is the train going or coming.
And also for engineer works
They switch them on during engineering works but in normal service they don't
How about for reversing sidings? Because if the lights are off when passing the sidings or leaving the sidings with another train, you can see.
Lubdhak Das They have headlights for that. Nobody leaves the train and the signalling system prevents trains from hitting each other
