@@Powerflowertrainsandplanes I think nowadays they have the train management system on the newer trains, so they’re constantly reminded of this. I think the alarm was probably just an old fashioned way of doing the same thing
When I was travelling from Leeds to st Neots on Sunday it was a 225 but was cancelled due to a brake faliure but your staff were immensely helpful and brightened up my day. Please give them a big thank you it was the 17;16 to. St Neots
Absolutely brilliant day. Whenever I’m in the UK, I always head up to Leeds from KGX and then connect to Ilkley, to visit with a very dear friend of mine and his wife who live nearby. As an aside, I’ve regularly used LNER for some time and never had a negative experience with them to date.
I absolutely loved this trip and the presentation. Well done to the person whose idea it was to have an information 'box' rather than an irritating scroll of seemingly endless points of interest at the bottom of the screen! Loved the weather symbol, too. It’s a few years since I travelled by train in the UK and this was perfect.
For those who may not know the bleeping sound is the vigilance where it goes off randomly inside 90 seconds of no controls used, the driver pushes his Dead man's pedal or DSD pedal this is to ensure the driver is still awake/alive. Green signals go 'ping' no action required, any speed restriction permanent or temporary & Yellow or Red signals it's a ding or Bleeerrrp this must be cancelled with press on the AWS cancel button modern trains are yellow type but original BR locos had a metal doom like device with a silver button on top that has to be pressed to cancel the Bleerrp/Ding noise with AWS there is a visual 'Sunflower' dial green signals it goes all black any adverse AWS Bleeerps/Bings it goes Yellow and Black like a sunflower and has to be cancelled. Hope that helps in easy terms?
The Driver lifts their foot off the DSD, then replaces it, this is to ensure that if the Driver collapsed onto the DSD and didn't lift it again the Emergency Brakes would engage.
Wow, Grantham, me, and my family were born in Grantham. i grew up there until the age of 11 , and in 1997, we moved to pembrokeshire in South Wales. It brings back a lot of memories seeing Grantham 😊 thank you for sharing
the Intercity 225 is my favourite train of all time! Back in 2018 when it was Virgin Trains East Coast, I was invited on an experience day in the cab of a Class 91 Loco. I travelled from London to Peterborough in the cab of loco 91108 and then I was given free first class tickets up to York and back!!!! It was an incredible day for me and something I will never forget. I was driven to Peterborough by the Driver Manager of VTEC who told me lots of facts and made my dream come true of travelling up front of a 225 set, its an experience I would love to do again and again if I could. Please tell the Driver manager I said hi 😄 also please don't replace the 225's 😅
Brilliant, very much enjoy watching cab rides to unwind, it’s fantastic that LNER allow these cab rides. Hopefully other TOC will follow suit. If anyone from Avanti is reading give your gaffers a nudge would much love Pendo cab ride. Shout out to Don Coffey who’s a trailblazer for these cab rides. Well done LNER and to all involved.
I went to UK in June 1990 & had a 2 week 1st class Britrail pass. There was even a train going to Tilbury Dockside where I got on the original Royal Princess (christened by Diana) cruise ship to sail to Leningrad (St Petersburg). The Britrail printed timetable was more than 500 pages. I'm a "train-a-holic" & have traveled over 250,000 km by rail since 1955 mostly on "The Canadian" (51x) but also Australia (1 month rail pass May 1987). Cheers from Vancouver. BTW Peterborough, South Australia has triple-gauge track (4 rails), Narrow, standard & wide).
I remarked to someone recently whilst we were watching old film of a steam-hauled heavy goods on the West Coast Main Line in the mid-1950s, "I wonder what a young fireman would have said if, having just slogged over Shap with a heavy freight, you told him that within 30 years, he could be in charge of a class 1 passenger travelling at 90mph at the foot and still be doing 85 or more over the top?"
Very well done. I liked the graphics showing speeds and locations. Very informative! I've only seen videos of Kings Cross from the platform, so it was great to have the view of the approach through the tunnel.
From Australia, I travelled on one of these from Leeds to Peterburough last year. Most enjoyable. Thank you LNER. (Maximum speed in my Oz state is only 160kmh but not everywhere).
What a truly fantastic video. Looking forward to seeing more. And those onboard announcements and awesome. What a relaxing voice. Maybe a silly question but are drivers allowed to wear sunglasses look's very bright. Once again thanks to our driver and LNER for taking us along. Brilliant
Excellent video, thanks for posting LNER. Growing up in North London I spent many hours at Kgs X, Finsbury Park and New Barnet in steam days. On more recent visits from down under I’ve watched from St Neots and the Tallington footbridge - the latter when the 225s were fairly new. Great to see a TOC putting up driver’s eye views and I look forward to more. Cheers from NZ, Marty
Wonderful video. I especially like the on-screen info, location and speed. More like this please! (A far smoother ride than my poor son had yesterday evening on the reverse route. His train from Kings X was cancelled, everyone had to get a later train which only went as far as Doncaster, then a bus from there meaning he missed his last bus in Leeds, ended up getting home at nearly 2am, and he's working today!)
This is a route I'm pretty familiar with. Before the pandemic, I would travel from Leeds to London at least once a year as a tourist, and it's nice to see it from the driver's point of view.
Fantastic - INTERCITY 225s! Well done LNER. You keep them absolutely immaculate. I travel on them often; very comfortable trains and long may they continue.
Living in Lincolnshire, I've used LNER services a heck of a lot during the past thirteen years. Makes a change to observe the journey from a different angle 😊
LNER you are the hotspot for train enthusiasts. I used to have Boring 787 full flights as sleep sound but eventually I will listen to these beautiful Class 80x sounds!
A little bit of trivia, when they first ran 225s from Kings Cross to Harrogate (Leeds to Harrogate being diesel assisted as no overhead catenary) the train needed a repaint as the loading gauge was wider than the normal Leyland/Sprinters at the time.
I think you mean that the diesel locos used to haul the IC225s had a repaint to match the the INTERCITY livery of the new trains. Unrelated to the 'loading gauge', as the Harrogate line had previously been cleared for IC125 (HST) diesel sets which are within the same C3 dimensions.
This is the best British trainvideo from 2024. Point of "interest": when the voice says we are arriving in London; the station on the screen says Stevenage. That is not they annoucement in the station, but when the train had still some speed.
Thank you for this video. Nice cab ride In a beautiful day. More sunny at the begining and at this end. And thank you for all.infos given in this ride, very interesting.
Ahoj! UK signals are simple: Green - go Double Amber - next signal is amber Amber - next signal is red Red - Stop ..... Flashing amber(s) mean: speed restriction ahead (usually on junction) .... "White lines above" - how many "turns" on next junction(s) ahead (left or right) For left: / - one turn - - two \ - three .... And analogue for right These is more signs/signals but these are most important
@@stanley3647 @stanley3647 Thanks, very useful! I know the basic signals, but the "specials" are triangle junctions in the UK. We don't have many of those here... Also the Czech signalling system is very different, basically the main signals are split into 2 sections, the top shows what to expect at the next signal and the bottom shows what to do at this signal. We also have automatic blocks, they are between stations and the default aspect is Clear, inserted signals, repeater signals etc. There are many signals and combinations, but it has logic :D Thanks
@@Maty06686 Absolute block signalling/control is used in UK. Mean: only one train per section (block) of railway allowed. Sometimes blocks are short, sometimes long... In some arest drivers using tokens (electronic or manual keys)... It is a mix old and new world ;) But this is bit complicated in stations - sometimes on one platform 2 trains are booked. One train on section A, second on B, sometimes 2 short trains joins toghether (like in Machynlleth) and continue as one longer train. In this situation automatics not allow to show any other signal than red, so manually controller in signal box can display little 2 white lights under main semaphore. So, driver know in this situation: train ahead - proceed with caution. Worth to mention: It is mandatory in UK to every driver know route - this is becuse old stock has unsuifficient light, and with reduced visibility is almost like ride in darkness ;) So only "track markers" and some characteristic points give information to the driver where train is. In new stock - this is much easier, but route knowlege is a must.
@stanley3647 Oh, interesting. In the Czech Republic, on corridor routes, there are autoblock sections in about 1 km (0.6 mi I think). Interesting thing, the driver can legally pass the danger signal, but he has to follow 3 rules: it has to be an autoblock signal, the sign under the signal has to be white and the train can't be seen in front. We also have shunting signals, red or blue means shunting not allowed, white means shunting allowed
I started my driving career in 1970 at Kings Cross in those days lots of signal boxes and semaphore signals how it’s changed. Wish I could see the line from the cab again as now retired. (Transferred away in 1974 not been back to the Cross since) 2:11:20
125mph.... 150mph capable 4 motored axles and 13 coaches Jeepers! The French turned up at Willesden Traction Maintenance Depot for a demo of the Class 87 4 axles and 13 coaches 110mph! Mon Dieu! (The TMs sandpapered the relay contacts for best performance 🤣)
Gutted I couldn’t get on 225s far rather them and 125 over the Azuma anyday. Went on the azuma twice in 1 day was gutted but should be thankful trains were running even when train strikes were going on. Hope I can ride 225 soon love the ride & comfort🥰
Just like in Train Sim World 4! I was playing the video at 1.5 speed when I realised that’s about the speed Spain's high-speed trains typically run: 310 km/h (193 mph). If you play it at double speed, that would be almost exactly their maximum capability of 404 km/h (251 mph). I live in Spain and have never been on one of the AVEs-no excuse, really, especially with one-way tickets from Madrid to Valencia going for as little as €7.00. Best wishes.
Thanks for the great video lner i was wondering if you could answer this question please, is the station approach alarm unique to the class 91s? As others have said ive never heard it on a cab ride video before. Thanks for bringing us these videos anyway. I've enjoyed using train sim world to try out the azuma on the main line its great.
@9:31 Robin Hood Bridge. Just to the left is Outwood Grange (School as was, now Academy). Where me and a few mates with Ian Allan books used to congregate at break time and lunch. Waiting for those sexy HSTs to whoosh through! The trees were a bit more sparse then. Yes I know that's of interest to nobody, but its where my train history started 🤓
Im still so sad, I want 225s - class 91, to come back to Scotland because last time it went ( I don’t remember ) I think it was 2021 especially Edinburgh. Hope you make them go back to Scotland again 👍
Really looking forward to this video and is there any chance you could do York to Edinburgh Waverley Via Newcastle? You just got yourself a NEW SUBSCRIBER!!
Super ride but the ultra widescreen spoils it a bit with loss of definition. This is not a 4K video. The picture quality could have been so much better however the on screen graphics and sounds are perfect and all the information I need.
I’m already watching it and it’s great to get a good view. Very nice LNER. Also you be replacing the Class 91 Mk4s with the new CAF Civity Class 897 Tri-mode that is what you are getting and to enter service in few years time.
To LNER locomotives Stoke Bank at 1:200 may be a bank. GWR locomotives would scarcely have recognised it as other than level; they were used to real banks.
And needed banking engines on grades like Dainton. Stoke Bank is not all 1 in 200, also stretches of 1 in 264 and the last 3 1/2 mles from Corby Glen To Stoke summit 1 in 178.
When I was a fireman at eastfield traction depot Glasgow Glasgow Queen street to Edinburgh Waverley on the push & pulls two class 27 diesel locomotives one at the front and one at the back on most of the mainline the driver got the train up to 100 MPH 1974 we have really moved on since then I see not
No chance of the driver forgetting to stop at a station with that racket going off! Top video, thank you for sharing
You'd be surprised by the things that can cause drivers to fail to call at a booked stop!
if i heard that I would take cover
How long has the approach to stations alarms been a thing? Never heard it before on cab view videos?
But still late 😅

Excellent and the 91s + mk4s are much better than the replacements.

To LNER locomotives Stoke Bank at 1:200 may be a bank. GWR locomotives would scarcely have recognised it as other than level; they were used to real banks.
And needed banking engines on grades like Dainton. Stoke Bank is not all 1 in 200, also stretches of 1 in 264 and the last 3 1/2 mles from Corby Glen To Stoke summit 1 in 178.
I so enjoyed that. Thank you.
This looks really epic. Will you be introducing more new services in 2025 including Scarborough, Hartlepool, Grimsby Town, Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe.
🤣that was truly a long squirt !!
Love these cab rides!
Nice Vid LNER
Great birthday present 🎁
Happy birthday 🎂
This should be good. I see you've picked the superior of your trains to film from :)
I was intrigued by the varying speeds on a straight line. I wondered why?
Passes the Mallard Speed Record sign at 1:14.50 doing almost the same speed. !
I have known expresses on that stretch to do over 130mph. This was when the track was in better condition than now.
Lovely
When I was a fireman at eastfield traction depot Glasgow Glasgow Queen street to Edinburgh Waverley on the push & pulls two class 27 diesel locomotives one at the front and one at the back on most of the mainline the driver got the train up to 100 MPH 1974 we have really moved on since then I see not
Very interesting.
