Manchester Metrolink Driver's Eye. Etihad Campus - Altrincham [Line B]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- In this Manchester Metrolink driver's eye video. We ride on Line B (The lovely red one) from Etihad Campus to Altrincham. I managed to record Etihad Campus - Brooklands in one whole piece. When we departed Brooklands I dropped my phone whilst recording, meaning I had to get off at Timperley. Get a tram BACK to Brooklands. And start recording from Brooklands again. You may notice the change of driver at Brooklands. But the video turned out pretty well in my opinion. Let me know what you think and subscribe for more!
PLEASE NOTE: Stations will be in annotations in the top right, unfortunatley this will not work on mobile devices.
Coming soon: Line C Bury - Piccadilly.

These nice stable views where the camera seems to be properly mounted are fantastic. It's also great to have a partial view of the driver and some of the train controls. Looking forward to more of these great videos, many thanks for taking the time to shoot them.
John Thompson It’s a Tram not a train. Although it does act like a train.
This tram route is back after 5 years, as of 2 Jan 2024
Very nice slightly wet ride through the streets of Manchester.
I remember travelling on the tram from Altrincham on the first day over 30 years ago.😊
Not having been to Manchester for about 40 years it would have been better to print the names of the stops, or old stations as they were !!!
Good afternoon, from Argentina I greet and comment ....
Expectacular video, I really like the videos filmed from booth and I really like the METROLINK MANCHESTER line. I would like to be able to perform this and all its lines in simulator either TRAIN SIMULATOR or TRAINZ ....
ARIEL MOSCHINI expectacular, that is the word of the day. when you expect something spectacular, that's what is called expectacular, especially for this great light rail ride thru centre of Manchester and out onto suburbs, and all this hard work of filming whilst moving.
Good video, could be made better with a few captions,ie, tram stops.
We on the Line b From Etihad Campus to Altrincham
If I had a job in Manchester this wud be it
very nice in viedo cab!
Best to watch your title captions. All very well identifying the stops that the tram makes but the white lettering against a grey sky does not show up at all well. Best to use yellow lettering with black border(trim) around the letters so they show up much better.
I know it's quite randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream new tv shows online ?
@Major Rhys i use flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
@Major Rhys Try Flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Morgan Colton yup, I've been using flixzone for years myself :D
@Morgan Colton yea, have been watching on Flixzone for since march myself :D
Poor sharpness..could not read a single station sign on whole route...signage poor anyway, but camera angle did not help..would have been truly lost on this route...
Why didn't the doors open at New Islington?
They also didn't open at Piccadilly
Hi,
The doors opened at every station along the route. I paused the video at stations therefore there is a jump between stopping and accelerating.
The doors are passenger controlled so the passenger has to press a button for the door to open
West Point Hotel
How do you pronounce Etihad??
How do Point changes work for different destinations.
The route is entered into the box you can see on the left. The system picks up where the tram is using sensors in the ground. It knows what tram it is and where it's going. The points change based on the information the driver puts into the box so it goes the right way.
Is Etihad furthest line goes that side of Manchester?
Nah its Ashton-Under-Lyne
Matthew BURRELL yep I know
Suspend the camera. Driver blocked over 50% of the view.
thank you for ruin my x-mas firstmanchester135
What happens if the driver needs to go to the loo?
I’m not sure lol, but they do usually switch drivers after a few stops
Greetings, and thanx - enjoyed the ride. (especially, with some music in the background ruclips.net/video/zcKYUVSDVOg/видео.html ).
u kicked me outof stepford county
The Metrolink is slooow. So many slow sections across the whole network. It's either poor design/quality, or poor maintenance.
Altrucham to navigations the worst
Andrew Williams It’s an absolute joke. Even the off-road sections operate at a crawl.
@@owviralavenger5915 This is because there is a transfer from KeolisAmey Metrolink Ltd.'s rails and Network Rails'. If the trams go too fast during this transition, the tram doesn't show up on either Metrolink or Network Rails' systems and it becomes a ghost tram.
@@nativenewlondoner Have your watched some of the other cab view train videos? Some of the freight train ones are so slow that even the man doing the video speeds up the footage in places! This is HST by comparison!
