So true😂😂😂

Well that is kind of the point, if you only go 20-25 mph through the tunnels instead of about 40, it's going to be a slow service and they don't stop TOO harshly. They come into a station at about 35-40 mph, then they gradualy slow down to about 25 mph and then they start braking harder at the end of the platform.

Time is money bro

The tube isn't all that dirty compared to the NY subway and the Paris Metro

@@StunnedByWrestling shut yer hole, you've never been past your front door.. international man of bollocks lol..

@@livelongandprosper70 What are you on about? We're not all wasting our lives sat around playing video games like you mate

💗💗

Could you see if there is a Northern line?? Its the one i take

@@jack.b4981 there isn’t a northern line built in, but you could probs find a mod for it but I can’t find any DLCs

Wow that's really cool

Yep

dont know how about depots, but on track i never heard tube train using horn here in London :)

@@TheMrakic That's because there aren't many whistle boards around so you rarely hear them whistle. Also, it just generally doesn't happen a lot. If you do want to hear it though, it would be better sticking your head outside a broken window lol

They blow the whistle if they see workers on the track (being close to the track is classed as being on the track) to let themselves be known. The best place to hear that happen would be if you stood on the bridge at Queen's Park.

You are right. It is on the number 3 and it is only when you are on the tunnels.

I’m pretty sure it’s in the game before this one

@@Bombinmybag010 I’m pretty sure that’s the lirr

@@duckworth_75 yeah sry

greetings from current train driver from Hong Kong !

David Hui greetings!

TorontoGraeham I drive on the central line and my gf drives on the bakerloo line and you’re exactly right about the whistle use. I thought the kids only waved at me because I’m their favourite driver... I’d love to make a switch and drive in Toronto

@@badmilk1735 That's amazing! Seems the rules about the horn and whistle are universal. And I'm sure the kids wave at you because you are indeed their favorite! Toronto is great but it's a relatively small system, especially when compared to the London Underground. I was there about 11 years ago and I loved it!

TorontoGraeham well if you’re ever back in London feel free to whistle and you can ride up front with me. We also whistle when coming out of certain tunnels (just remembered) there’s a few more times you would when doing specific manoeuvres etc but I feel like I’m started to write out the rules and procedures book. Toronto/Canada is a great place. I’d go tomorrow if they’d let me stay. But I can’t support the maple leafs...sorry lol

KOOTHA KOOTHA Ok?

@KOOTHA KOOTHA This was a really random comment...

It may have felt that way, but it's not quite true. Did you drive a tube train?

Max Edison no he’s right, I work for the underground and although I’m not a driver, I’ve been in the front several times

Wrighty_Boyy, I was a driver on the Central & Northern lines, so we were taught about train equipment. You cannot slam the brakes on in 'service mode' (as in when the train is in passenger service.) because trains are fitted with 'retarders', a device, or devices, fitted which release the brakes to a certain lower level when they sense the train is being braked to harshly. The Bakerloo line trains are fitted with old style retarders so, if you listen to a train as it stops normally, there isn't much sound as it comes to a halt. However, a fast approach and late braking will result in the retarders kicking in and releasing a set amount of air from the brake cylinders, so allowing the train to come to a smoother stop. Without the retarders, standing passengers will fall over. So, the only time a train will brake hard to that point, is in the 'Emergency Position', because that is the only time you would need to brake in that way. In the cab, it always seems fast on the approach, but you have to be in control of the train at all times, which means killing the main momentum of the train around the halfway point of the platform, and bringing speed down from around 20mph and reducing it to 0 on the stopping mark. Like I said, it might seem fast in the cab, but it's down to perception. The speed and braking is controlled by the driver, and some drivers may take a few seconds more to stop a train, but it all sits within the timetable. However, automatic train operation, where the braking control is undertaken by on board equipment which interacts with the line signalling, is a very different beast. Because the approach is not under your control, as a Train Operator, it does seem faster, but you still have to be ready to hit the Emergency plunger if the situation arises. All the best.

REALLY? That's fascinating! Thank you for sharing that!

If you visited Central London, and you were only in tube tunnels, you won't hear any whistles unless the tube tunnel ends. This is where the whistle is sounded, as the train is now entering an open section of track where maintenance workers may be present. (Use of a whistle in a tunnel is limited to certain procedures which are rarely required.)

From what I remember in the MTA, two long horns is to alert the workers a train is coming. The train operator gives two short horns when they see the acknowledging signal from the flagman.

Oh, and GLORY TO RAPTORIA.

@@tomcorwine3091 you totally could be correct, my knowledge is a bit dated at this point. Glory to RAPTORIA!

I used to catch the Northern Line from Hemel Hempstead or Watford Junction into London for day trips.

The Might One After 20 years daily use it loses its novelty value but I’d like to see @Raptor’s impressions of the Metropolitan line on TS2020, it has extended overground regions with longer gaps between stations which adds interest.

People from Harrow often tend to pronounce it, "Arra".

I've never seen this happen!

From my experience on the tube, I don’t remember the horn ever being done

@@codybowman803 It isn't although they do blow the low whistle when entering a depot shed. But never in a station other than for exceptional circumstances.

Imagine if they added lines and connected them so you could connect from one line to the next

Part of the reason why they are EMUs.

Where is the button cos I've been looking everywhere

@@harry_1527 The button is at the other desk, on the right side of the door. Check the red and black buttons.

@@____-ku3cd yeah I found it earlier after ages of looking

@@harry_1527 lol

Tunnel lights have one main function split into two parts, but they also have one indication. At the end of Passenger train traffic, they are usually switched on by Station Staff, although the option to remotely switch them is also a possibility. So, function 1 is to illuminate tunnel sections for Track Patrol teams and Maintenance Workers. Function 2 is to illuminate the tunnels should trains need to be evacuated between stations. Indication Only: When the lights are off, most commonly during passenger traffic, and they suddenly illuminate, it indicates the power to the trains in that particular section of track has been switched off. (This is a separate automatic function, not a manual one.)

KOOTHA KOOTHA thank you sir.

@Cameron Savage that's who i learned it from :) love his videos of the underground.
