The huge sparks that come from the rails are amazing, I love how they create the huge bright arks of electricity.
To really see how amazing London Underground Tube trains are, you have to see them battling and fighting through the heavy rain at night.
The drivers and the trains just keep on going are awesome.
Whatever the weather, they just keep going.
These Metropolitan and Jubilee Line trains are going through Wembley Park station.

The Jubilee Line has the best sounding traction motor of any tube train. That’s a fact, and to see them battling with the rain at night, even more beautiful.
@LondonUndergroundTubetrains
Very good point about the traction motor and I like your thinking!

it also sounds like the C751A (from Singapore)

@skullgeezer7174 Год назад
@@WarFigureSunlight Yeah! I’ve been to Singapore before and taken the MRT. The C751A sounds insane, though I can’t really tell any differences between the Alstom Metropolis (1996 stock) and the C751A’s traction motor, they sound so similar. I honestly prefer most traction motors in Singapore compared to London. Singapore has such a wide range of traction motors.
@LondonUndergroundTubetrains
@@WarFigureSunlight even that comparison is a huge compliment to London underground trains as the Singapore system is so well done.

When I was working on the tube years ago we were sat in our portacabin when the sandite train was running. It pulled in next to Hainault sheds but one of the shoes must have had a tiny gap at the end of a length of rail as it just continually arc’d. Not good for your eyes but quite impressive the noise and the constant arc!

@kellyholley6585
@kellyholley6585 2 года назад
The sparks are called ARCING. The collector shoes are getting a bad connection in certain areas of the 3rd and 4th rails. This is the reason it ARCS.

why dont they just use over head wires?? i lot safer! the way they have done it is very dangerous!!!
@LondonUndergroundTubetrains
That's a very good point and a very good idea. I'm guessing that the design challenge is there would not be much room for them when the trains go into the tight underground tunnels. Also the cost of doing this extra work.

@LondonUndergroundTubetrains
That's a very good point, do you mean when it makes a bit of a weird noise? If so, I'm guessing that the wheels slipped on the track and put a different amount of pressure on the motor. Does that sound sensible or do you think it's something else?

That’s exactly it, wheel slip and motor surge. The class 450/444/455 I sign as a driver are just the same in the wet (and even on leaf contaminated rail heads, especially after a bit of drizzle). Drizzle it the worst for slip and slide (when braking). A fine bead of damp just sits on the rail head, whereas heavy rain doesn’t.
