10:33 "Do you want to have an argument now or later?" The light hearted snarky banter between those two is brilliant.

@@Dave_Sisson In all fairness, Vicky was in a cheeky mood this trip wasn't she ?

Vicky - Show him where the kitchen is.

@@Dave_Sisson The explanation for arguments and Peterborough is found in kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZpdxfaSIrbTIZaM.html and for mention of what went wrong see kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aLqAZqhhuMndmKc.html I think that two things happened that day in Peterborough and the second (BBC) video gets the order wrong. Firstly, there was a missed connection due to a late incoming train, which was the departing train that you saw. They then decided to do a Vicki explores Peterborough, but perhaps she was late back for plan B leading to a further delay and the need to switch to plan C. Frankly, how well Geoff and Vicki got on is a testament to the strength of what they have together. There must have been many times when they were tired and things went wrong, but it seems they took so much in their strides.

-And here we have the antique series 800 passenger trains of London and North Eastern Railway, which have been famous over the century, for giving a newtrain experience to the passenger. -Excuseme, what's "newtrain"? -Newtrain is a term, brought to public in summer of 2019 by an old chap, called Geoff Marshall. Basically it means "excited beyound belief". -Geoff Marshall, you mean the HSXL lines president? -Yes, the same fellow, that brought us the famous HMU network.

I know what you mean. I'm a non train spotter too, but I love Geoff and Vicki's videos.

Joanne Gray Exactly I am not a train spotter either, but Geoff and Vicky’s video are just great!

I'm a bit like Pete Waterman, not the famous music producer bit, being a fan of railways not just locomotives, trains and multiple units...

lmfao.

Eeeeyuoopppppgvvcccxxxz

It’s still just a downgraded Shinkansen though. But compared to the GWRs 800/1 these are a lot better in build quality and comfort so that’s nice

Don't forget legnth in vickyfeet as we need to know if it'll fit the platforms.

Yes, every train I go on I'm going to do it

I cracked up at the #fistofquality 👏🏾🤣👏🏾

How much did you pay for the train, Ted? Ah Jaysus, I could have got you a better one for half that!

Something wrong gone now. They both divorced

It’s not beautiful it replaced the intercity 125

@@envirommc7059 this is true, they are also largely assembled in the UK like the HST. We sold our ability to design trains in the 1980s so our friends in the far east come to fill the gap

@Peter Mitchell I've heard that there are a lot of both internal and external discussions ongoing to bring the buffet carriages back into service on GWR on the new Intercity Express Trains. There is also a public petition at you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/great-western-railway-bring-back-the-buffet which may help with this decision...? The buffet carriages do exist and are sitting in a siding somewhere apparently....

@@davidmilne5122 i go on the new gwr 800s quite a lot (live in Bath) and when he said they had a buffet car my jaw sort of dropped because recognising this train and then having the luxury of a buffet car in the middle is sort of perfect. it cant get better. it shows too that it takes so little space and we all know how annoying it is to get stuck behind the trolley. not only that but most of the time there is only a trolley on one half and ive been on one where they claimed that and still didnt serve even though i got on at paddington. (sorry about that rant) just bring back the buffet. its better in every way

Baggage car with an actual decent number of bike and oversized luggage spaces would be more useful.

@@cjeam9199 they have load of space for bikes and luggage. the old ones did have the guards car but i think they have reasonable space for bikes and luggage

Buses in Bath & Bristol They have a decent amount of luggage space for normal luggage yes. But there are 4 bike spaces on the 10 & 9 car layouts, which is poor.

We destroy our own railway engineering capacity then import what we once made. There is no honour in that.

MirVids 僕は英語が解らないので日本語で返します。何事にも繁栄と衰退が有ります。イギリスは電車並みの性能を持った蒸気機関車を極めましたが、それが今に至る衰退の大きな原因だと思います。でもその事にあなた方は気付くことができました。恥を忍んでフランスやドイツ、イタリア、そして日本の鉄道技術を受け入れました。それはとても勇気がいる事です。ですが、あなた方は解っているのです。それが50年後、100年後には世界に誇る鉄道王国がイギリスに帰ってくる事を。確かにあなた方は失敗をしました。蒸気機関車から電車への変換を。ですが、あなた方は知っているのです。失敗をした時の打開策を知っているのです。それが世界随一の頭脳を持つイギリスが選んだ道です。間違っているわけが有りません！あなた方イギリスは世界で最も優れた頭脳を持っているのです！

@@user-xy3xt9fm6c I do not understand English, so I will return it in Japanese. There is prosperity and decline in everything. The United Kingdom has made excellent use of a steam locomotive with train-like performance, which I think is a major cause of the decline so far. But you could notice that. She embraced shame and accepted railway technology in France, Germany, Italy, and Japan. That's a very courageous thing. But you know. That 50 years later, 100 years later that the world of railway kingdom will return to England. Certainly you have failed. Convert from a steam locomotive to a train. But you know. You know the solution when you make a mistake. That's the path England chose with the world's best brains. There is no reason to be wrong! You Britain has the best brains in the world!

thanks Jill, we work so hard to make them fun, entertaining and yet also informative. appreciate the comment!

It can only fit with asian elbow like mine haha 😅

I know, sometimes I have to swivel and pack my coat up behind my head so I get a cushion against the window.

Thank you Paul, very kind! We do work hard to do these. Appreciated.

In theory, the HST was replaced in the '90s by the Mk4 sets.

The HST has had an incredible career. It deserves a good retirement.

@@Nimmo1492 im going on the last gwr one tomorrow. cant have been on one for nearly 2 years because of the new trains. going to bring back memories

Chris Bell Only partially. The HSTs that the IC225s replaced were obviously moved to other operators.

Oscair Brady it's funny, but when I moved to the UK in 87, I used to sit on the IC225, thinking that they were like the most modern thing ever. Not realising that they had been in service since the 70s.

Nah they replaced the god damn intercity 125’s and most trainspotters hate this train because the intercity had been in service since 1976 because Britain wanted a new train different to a diesel but still one.

Well, the operating companies definitely love them; LNER, GWR and TransPennine have all ordered variants. I doubt I'll ever ride on one, I'll be stuck with CAF's trains, but I'm delighted that we're finally getting modern rolling stock.

I love them and I,m British.

I_like Jintys10 They are definitely the most insufferable part of an otherwise fairly inclusive community. I like the HST too but Jesus Christ , they need to grow up and stop snivelling .

By the way, Javelin is my favorite. Great shape & color

Its done

You should ride Amtrak! The Southwest Chief stops in Victorville on its way between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, Denver, Kansas City, and Chicago

Not really Japanese, but they have a lot of Japanese technology, majority of the steel on this train is British.

that's the state of pretty much every station

No we don't want toilet reviews. Well done Geoff for not including one!!

Ian Mcclavin Why not? Of course we do.

There was no toilet review as there is no toilet on the Azuma. It's so fast, engineers felt you don't need one onboard!

I can't give it a positive review unless it has a strong flush.

Yes I know dude

Alastair Harding Yes funny that! It seem as if the government does not want a repeat of may last year timetable mess up! 😂😂

Major timetable changes must be a headache for the timetablers, as GTR found out, I wonder do they still use a time/ distance graph to do it manually or have computers taken over? Which might explain last years cock ups, at least with a graph a glance will tell one there is two trains on the same track section at the same time, rather than wait for trains backing up on reds. At least a human can allow variable variables, a computer only follows a programme.
