Don - I’ve been watching your videos from Australia for months now - and have to say they are the best cab view vids on YT. Your added comments on the drivers’ skills and processes and meticulous historical research are what sets them apart. I love local hauled trains - I used to love the 50s and 47s that dragged the Hereford-London route which was my local line - and so this brought back happy memories. Thanks for all your efforts in making such quality experiences - like many I’m very impressed - and grateful.

The acoustic insulation on the class 68 is amazing considering there is a V-16 CAT purring and sometimes growling away just a few feet behind the cab. Fantastic video.

I love the response time on this Diesel engine Don. You can hear the clicks on the notches on the throttle and the instant speed at which the motor responds. What a ride.

Beautifully filmed and highly informative. A real delight to watch. Thank you very much.

Fantastic video on a mostly familiar line. Glad the Class 68/Mk5A sets are keeping the loco hauled action alive. Like the 125 HST's, what I consider 'proper trains', it makes the journey that bit more special in my humble opinion. Thanks for the informative videos. 👍

Thanks again Don for all the time and effort you put in when producing these fantastic videos .

Really nice to see the 68 in active service. That is one good looking machine. Your on-screen comments/information are as good as gold as always. Gives usa wider view of the work of a train driver, and he has the best view of any office in the world. Prove me wrong!

I was once on a 5-coach train behind a Deltic with a sporty driver. It seems the good old days are coming back again! Thanks for the great video.

Excellent video, it's the first one of these ""cab ride videos I've had the patience to watch from beginning to end, the comments pointing out the various track infrastructure and the adjacent buildings &etc. make it almost as good as the real thing, keep 'em coming 👍👍👍

Hi Don. Loved the video and appreciate all the time you took to caption it with your route and area knowledge. I was born, raised and still live in Scarborough so I know the station and it's surrounding area very well, but it has changed so much since my childhood days sat on Westwood wall opposite Falsgrave signal box watching the excursion trains come in and the daily goods coming out of Falsgrave tunnel...now long gone.

Very interesting indeed and relaxing too.I travel this route regularly Scarborough to York but good to see the front view for once.

Another very interesting journey, thank you for all the hard work you put into making it so good.

Fantastic content and information Don a true insight in to one of the things that make this country great, our amazing railway network. Keep it up Don.

That was a super fine video, I thoroughly enjoyed it and thank you to everyone involved in the making of it. Cheers.

Always relaxing, always informative. Thank you for uploading Mr. C.

I really enjoyed this journey many thanks for providing it

Once again Don great video and information. Really enjoyed and thanks for all the hard work putting it together. Love the class 68.

That was one of the informative videos i have watched latley and thank you . I used to live iv Leeds but now live in Macduff N/E Scotland, yes i enjoyed that.

I saw one of these units in Scarborough in April. Beautiful things! Looking forward to travelling on one.

Another great production. My number one station York.Many thanks.

Great trip Don. Thanks for producing this video and the information you gave us along the way. Most enjoyable.

Thanks for the video. A very enjoyable watch and sound

Great video with explanations - Brilliant Don... Keep up the good work..

Thank you Don for this. Great that you are sharing with annotations - very interesting. Those class 68 locomotives are beasts from the sound of it. They hardly break a sweat!

Another excellent edition Don, ever more informative. What a fabulous station York is!

Thanks for this. Scarborough to York line is one of my favourites

Love it. Nice to see my neighbour hood from this perspective. Thank you, especially for the accompanying text/Markers

Thanks for a great video & I find the commentary very informative, keep up the great work, also pass on thanks to the guys that help you achieve these 🚄🚆🚄🚆

Thanks Don, another super video with fantastic information on the whole route also a big thanks to Steve for his driving. Glad to see you over came the camera problem with the sloping screen. Thanks again.

Looking forward to this one, Don!!👍🏼

Awesome train videos that you provide and producing fantastic views on the front of the train cab !👍😎

First class video again Don very enjoyable, that class 68 engine sound gives you every confidence of its capabilities, loved the line about bold drivers and old drivers, that took me back somewhat, stay well in these difficult times.

Absolutely brilliant video top class! 🙂 Lots of interesting facts about the route some i knew some I'd forgotten, live between Strensall and York can hear the 68s in my lounge that's with good double glazing! Once again thank you for the journey

A journey I would otherwise have never seen or enjoyed! Really glad I found this! Good work! And thank you!

Had the pleasure traveling on the 68 from Manchester to Leeds yesterday, a very comfortable journey!

Another super enjoyble video Don. I must say I was surprised at how quite the 68 is in the cab. Many thanks for your efforts and sharing. Cheers, Bob

Another hit. Don! Thanks to your tireless work , we (of a certain age!) can all vicariously live our dreams of becoming an engine driver!

Another great video Don, really appreciate your work in making these available.

Another great vid Don. I see these new sets go past my house at Church Fenton. They sound fantastic!

Great video again Don, your efforts are appreciated. 👍🙂

Great video don I love how you have the real sounds unlike other cab view videos

What a trip down memory lane, I at one time lived 5mins walk from Cross Gates station,I now live in OZ lol..Keep up the good work.......Thank you !!!!!!!

Very enjoyable you always go the extra mile with your added information

Terrific video & Steve is a great driver. New equipment's a real step up. Thanks!

Thanks Don for another very informative video. Very interesting as usual.

Great video thanks for making it so interesting.

Don; only recently found your channel but must say I love it. As someone that no longer lives in the UK I love traveling the countryside via your cab visiting both old haunts and new. Plus you include so much information of the areas, track, procedure and stations that as a train buff I find most interesting. I am avidly watching all your vids. Both you and the channel of HinduCowGirl over on the Norwegian railways are equally as great in my books. Keep up the good work.

Brilliant Don. great videos and looking forward to the next trip :)

Not only good, fabulous! Thank you so much. thank you for the video but also for your descriptions and information.

Thank you for these videos. You take me to places I can't go to in person.

As usual, Don, another interesting and informative video. It is a privilege to be able to sit in the cab and see so much. It is good that people all over the world can see parts of my beautiful native county of Yorkshire. You mentioned the word “riding”, it simply means a third, hence the three tidings. (Not counting Winifred Holtby’s South Riding!)

I love an engine that sounds just as powerful as it is, a true leviathan. Thanks for the video once again Don, looking forward to more :)

Another great video. Thanks very much and keep 'em coming please!

Nice video, Leeds is such a cool station

I love your vids! Wish we had passenger service here in Canada as good as yours "over there." Def won't be in my lifetime! All the best to you!

Excellent video as always, thank you. Please pass on my thanks to the rest of the team and management who help you to make it all happen.

Wonderful video. Love the countryside .the driver gets to see the four season of the year .better than stuck on a motorway .

Awesome power. Thank you for the upload Don.

What a superb video. Thank you for your efforts.

Another great video! Thanks again Don

Enjoyed this very much. Splitting the screen, I followed it on Google Earth. Thankyou Don for doing these excellent videos.

Love the sound of the engine.

Great video. Love the sound of the 68.

Nice one Don, just love the sound of the engine.

Superb thanks,i go from Malton-Scarboro ret often but haven`t yet been on the 68,great video

Found memories off that town with family holidays . Used to travel down from Edinburgh in the 70s Behring a class 40 and a rake off MK1s. Great to see loco hauled traffic back

I really enjoyed this ride, Thankyou Don :)

Been looking forward to this all day, another great video Don really enjoyed it.

Another excellent cab ride video thanks. Spent a few days in York during summer doing the 68's to Scarborough. As a Merseysider I look forward to the day they become regular visitors to Liverpool again instead of just one departure at 6.54am.

Don I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work, and be careful out there !!

This is my favorite British cab video channel on KZfaq ! Thanks for your work :)

What a great video, thanks. You pass Scarborough Terrace on the approach to York where we had our first house. Our cat used to walk up and down the line there, and sometimes go to sleep between the tracks! The trees have grown enormously since the mid 1990s too.

Another great run, many thanks Don. As Peter says, those big V16's sound wonderful. I'd imagine with a 5 carriage train, the 68's are quite under-stressed. Thanks again.

Excellent ,as always ! Nice one Don !!

Great for you to mention the Railcam Cameras at Holgate. I am a member of Railcam. Thanks for yet another great cab ride, may you keep doing them.

Wow , nothing like a new train , the sound of that engine , music to the ears . One thing that seems to be forgotten is the signalling technology , without it ,no railway can run . If you have a look at signalling at Waterloo at it's busiest , mind boggling stuff . They deserve a bloody medal that lot ! Great vid, Don.

Fantastic - and so very informative. Thank you. I saw this loco being trialled out as I waited on my bicycle at Howsham crossing, I think it was last summer? The signalman told me all about it. I cycle around the area a lot, but today I followed your video on my indoor bike.

Great Video Mate, Love The Class 68s

Thanks to Steve and you for yet another great video Don. I live in York and my home overlook the Holgte aea of ECML so expect to hear some good sounds soon ! So far only seen the 68's stabled in York station.

Another top video Don, thank you. I eagerly await your next one. Cheers :)

A classic, Don. Thanks a lot. I'd never done Scarborough-York, and York-Leeds the other way, in the dark behind Duchess of Hamilton in January 1984, on the return from a special Settle-Carlisle day excursion. York-London was diesel-hauled. I was intrigued to see that, apart from different trees and house shape, I could have been travelling through my home state of Victoria, Australia, especially with all the level-crossings.. A video to watch again!

Thank you for putting on yet another supremely visually stunning video, I shall be waiting for the next one, I do however have a query though (or more like a request really) which is I would love to watch a video (from the drivers eye view) of the journey from Manchester Piccadilly to London Euston (or vice-versa). Anyway big thanks to both you and the drivers whom share these journeys.

A great experience..love your wry sense of humour..

Such a beautiful run Don, and I must admit I think I am partial to the ride coming into Leed's Station, such a wonderful mix of old, middle and modern architecture. Cant wait for the next new one. BTW the Class 68 is an awesome unit(s), love the fact it can be driven from either end.

Very nice film of the Scarborough to Leeds on a class 68 Loco you did a nice job Don Coffey congratulations from MARTIN HOLMES in Whitby Ontario Canada.....

Another good video Don and goes through Haxby where I live, thank you.

Great video as always thank you

Lovely video, and thanks for taking us along for the ride. Very informative too, with your commenting. The miscellaneous bits and pieces of metal railway track along the line are just in case track needs to be replaced at some future time, I guess. Stay safe and cheers from me in Australia

WOW, best one yet Don. Truly exceptional. Got to love those CATS 😁

Thanks again for a great video.

Many Thank's yet again Don and all those that helped make this excellent Video

Another great video. The trip is like two lines in one with equally lovely scenery. The first half has a completely different character to the second half. The loco looks tough and sounds it too. Cheers.

many thanks for this wonderful video went many times to scarbrough born in guiseley regards john

Yet another fantastic video, thank you Don.

Great to see the eyeview! Love Class68's

I have travelled the York Leeds section behind steam many times and have always wondered what a drivers eye view of the route would be like. Thank you very much for posting such a fantastic video. What did surprise me was the time from York to Leeds. Unless I worked it out incorrectly it was 31 mins. The best run I ever had was behind Leander in 31 mins and that had 11 coaches. I would have thought a 68 with 5 coaches would have been much faster.

Thanks Don another masterpiece.

Another great video Don, thank you.

The National Railway Museum at York is an absolute must visit for all rail enthusiasts and everyone else.

great film..thx for all the info...i did not know the class 68 could go 200 kmh what a diesel!!!
