My YouTube Story 

I’m so happy that you started creating - you’ve inspired a lot of people to not only make content, but to advocate for better and more public transport and learn to appreciate the little things in life! Congrats on 250,000! 🎉

For years I scoured the barren wastelands of the Internet for forgotten London allotment videos. Finding none I despaired and was lost. And then the clouds parted, the trumpets sounded, golden light rained down from above, and the Geoff Marshall channel came forth, and it was good.

Great story, Geoff. Thanks for sharing that with us. Also, I can tell you're working on your editing. This video reminded me of the Casey Neistat vlogs. 👍🏼

Wherever Geoff is in the tube, we know he will have 15 stories to hand....

Geoff, the editing on this is absolutely stunning! (The story is also very, very cool.)

When I ask my son what have been his highlights of his life he always says the same things. Birth of his sister, first game of football for a team, and meeting Geoff. He might not watch your videos any longer, but back then you were his Tiger Wood or David Beckham. Great work Geoff keep it going.

Been watching you in one form or another since 2004. You were kind enough to send me a CD of "Tubeman" that you had done & good to see you around on YT. In 2007 I travelled through all Underground Stations at the time but over a few month period. Something I havent done since. Cheers Geoff & Congrats on the GOLD RU-vid Play Button.

Geoff, you're such a kind and genuine guy. I've been watching your channel for many years and really admire your passion and dedication. Wishing you all the very best and all the success on RU-vid and in real life.

I'm recovering from illness and watching a lot of RU-vid. So pleased to come across this channel: so wholesome.

I did a study abroad program in London over by Hyde Park back in 2005. When I moved back to finish school in NYC, I couldn’t stop thinking about the great memories I had over in London. On RU-vid there weren’t a lot of videos about London other than walking videos, then I stumbled upon the Londonist channel and been a fan of your videos. It’s truly amazing that one photograph led to your journey to where you are right now I am super proud of your growth.

You’ve been giving me geek-gasms for almost a decade. Thank you.

I really like the style/editing of this video Geoff, would love to see more like it. Congrats on 250k!!!

One of the reasons I started liking trains was because of Geoff. Thank you Geoff.

I must say, this was quite the video! Your story of how you gained a following is really interesting! In fact, the Londonist videos on the tube were the first videos about transport that I watched on RU-vid. And since 2020, I have gotten into your content! You have been a massive inspiration for my own channel, as your real life railway content really intrigues me and I wondered on how I could replicate it into Roblox games, hence some of the knockoff geoff-style content on there. 😂 Since then, I have gained a bit of a following myself and even after meeting you on that Autistic charity zoom call back in February last year, you've been a massive inspiration for what I do and I just wanted to say thanks! Keep up the great work!

.... I dont have any interest in trains, the underground or transport, I'm here for the infectiouss personna of Geoff and his presentation style, story telling and productions values. Great Stuff indeed.

Great channel. When I saw ‘secrets of the Tyne & Wear Metro’ dropped I thought, ‘he’s up on my patch and this will be a car crash’. Turns out, the next day on my commute I am telling the random bloke beside me about the old Felling signal box! Keep it up Geoff 👊

Gotta say a big thankyou for inspiring me to explore... I randomly decided last year to visit every station on Northern line, i took a pic of a roundel at each one and a photo of station. I then found your channel and decided I was going to do the same for all the other lines. So now I have visited every station on Underground, DLR, Croydon tramlink and recently the overground... So big thanks... Now maybe I should perhaps do the buses... 😁

As a Canadian, thanks for upping Margaret Atwood: 'a word after a word after a word is power'. your story is great

Those secrets of the tube videos were how I found you Geoff and you were the one that converted my into a train enthusiast! Congrats on 250k subscribers! Keep up the good work

Been a viewer since a child around 2013-2014. Proud of you Geoff 🙂

The editing in this video is ✨ U N R E A L ✨

Ah Geoff, such exquisite cruelty! Right at the end; the pool at Brockwell Park...1967, invited for a swim by a girl after whom I longed in my callow way as a naive 20 year old. Alas, nothing came of the afternoon but a brief aquatic cuddle. She was enamoured of another, The following year I sailed away to Australia (not because of her but because I was laterally dying of boredom in London). But I've never forgotten Hilary and her mischievous smile. I still have the souvenir photo she sent me after I got to Melbourne. Funny old life ain't it? Incidentally, one of my favourite DVD episodes is the one from the "Underground" series when you tried to beat the 'all stations' record. A heroic day and oh so close...

This is one of the videos ive always looked forward to! Thanks for making it!

What a beautiful video and congratulations on 250k!

thank you for all the amazing videos Geoff!

This is such a well produced video Geoff! Love all your content, may you continue for many years to come.

Lovely to see this. I've always loved watching your content and it's truly fantastic to see that you enjoy making it as much as you do. Keep on being wonderful.

Thank you Geoff for taking the time to upload such great content

I’ve been watching since 2017, and I’m so glad to see your story.

Congratulations on 250K Geoff!! I’ve been watching your videos for as long as I can remember. Keep them coming!

Congrats Geoff - and thanks for the hard work. Loved trains as a child and finding your channel in 2016 helped me re-kindle my love for it.

Congratulations on the 250k subscribers and thank you for the high quality videos you post.

Another brilliant video. Really enjoyed hearing about the beginnings of this journey. Please keep up the great work!

Been with you since the first Secrets of the Underground videos came out. I'm really so happy to see how far you've come Geoff! From a big fan all the way from Malaysia! :D

Thank you Geoff for all your amazing content,I truly love seeing when you have new updates and it was great to have a video focusing on you for a change Keep creating new stories :D

I’m so happy to see this video. I’m happy being a low-key OG Fan. Great work, Geoff!

Truly an inspiration to us all. Congrats Geoff! And may your channel expand and grow as long as you (and us) enjoy from it.

Great video Geoff. Been watching since secrets of the underground I was 9 then now almost 18. Time flies! Enjoyed all your videos. Keep up the great work.

Thank you Geoff for all the great stories you have told, watching your work is a joy.

Been watching Geoff since 2016 and ever time he uploads I watch. There are so many things I’ve seen on this channel that I want to go and see and try out 👍

Congratulations on the 250K mark. Thanks for sharing your story.

cograts on your 250.000 subscribers and thanks for sharing you incredible story. It was inspiring and I love it when you tell other railway workers about their story. Also if it wasn't for your tube map collection video, I wouldn't be a massive train fan. Thank you

What a great video Geoff! It was brilliant to hear your story and uplifting too. Thanks for brightening up our weeks with your content

Thank you Geoff for continuing to produce such amazing and informative videos. You have a great way of presenting and I look forward to your next one!!😁

Fantastic insight into how it all started. Well Done Geoff and looking forward to seeing 1 Million subs one day !

well done Geoff, loved seeing all your uploads they were all very well made.. also loved the all the station series, that was really well done 👌 keep up the good work 😊 Ben

Ayy! Congrats on your quarter mil! Glad I found your channel here and in the Londonist channel since the Secrets of the Underground series. And big respect in what you do here allowing us to support you content all the way! :)

What a great story. Thanks for sharing that Geoff. Congrats on 250k subcribers

Great story Geoff, absolutely love every single video of yours as your one of the few the puts the effort in. keep it up and look forward to the future uploads!!!!!

the type of video i have been wanting! im proud to be a subscriber, good journey geoff!

A great story Geoff, been watching your videos since the Londonist days ,hope you continue to make such interesting videos for many years to come.

Congrats on the 250k subs. I found your channel in late 2018 or early 2019 while getting ready to make my first trip to Europe and the UK and wanted info on the Tube. Honestly don't remember what video(s) I found (probably one of the Secrets series) but found them useful and have been watching ever since. Really want to get back to the UK and Europe soon. Probably won't be able to this summer but things are looking good for '23!

Loved it, Geoff. Thanks so much for sharing, and for all of your incredible videos over the years. You are a brilliant, brilliant storyteller. Here's to many more videos and subscribers!

Congrats on the Milestone mate, I'll be watching your videos for the last 6 years, I find the history of the London underground very interesting and how different it is to the rest of the world.

I’ve followed your channel and londonist for over 5 1/2 years and I have seen your remarkable rise and I hope you get to 1 million subscribers soon. Keep it up!

Thank you Geoff! Avid watcher and fan! I've introduced others to your channel and was so happy when I came across your US video, that was just fantastic! Having spent a lot of time traveling the US myself, it really struck a chord.

You are doing a great job recording videos with some interesting topics on the underground and railways. Keep up the good work

Thank you Geoff for sharing your story. Your videos are enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work. :)

Geoff - what previously might seem very unexciting for many, you have presented the London Underground, in the same way as David Bellamy did for his study of plants, in the 1972 TV Series, 'Bellamy on Botany' - extremely interesting and very watchable ! Excellent editing, timing and soundtrack . . . 'where to next' I wonder - underground stations around the world !

Nice Geoff!! Thank you very much for all your lovely videos with lots of information tech and history!

love your content. Hope your channel continues to grow.

Wow! Loved that story. I have watched you since you uploaded secrets of the victoria line. Thanks Geoff for all the amazing content

Very interesting I remember your old videos that's why my son and I got into trains . We thank you for all you have done . Keep up the good work.

Always a pleasure to watch your videos, Geoff!

The thanks belongs to you for creating and sharing your content. Been watching your vids for a few years now and they are quite entertaining and you present very well. Cheers from down under

Thank you for all your content Geoff! I started watching you in 2019 and I become a huge train nerd thanks to you haha

Been here for a while now, I remember subscribing for the bonus All the stations content! Also was here for the SotT as well, when i was just 12. Now im going onto 20, so 8 years of your voice. How time flies, Geoff, your way of commentary is iconic.

Geoff, I love your videos. In terms of the transitions, you've gone to an absolute pro!

It was a pleasure to watch your story. Keep the videos coming matey!

If I'm not mistaken, some of Geoff's videos mysteriously disappeared from Londonist and they reuploaded all they could find, but there still are some missing. Now that you found the tapes, perhaps there's the possibility to bring the lost episodes back? Love how you did this story as an immersive retrospective. Looking forward to more of your story... much more!

thank you Geoff for all the journeys and adventures you have carried me on

Thank you for making us the viewers part of your wonderful story!

What a BRIALLIANT video, Geoff! 🤩 It answers so many questions I had and you very clearly had LOTS of fun editing it 😄 Thank YOU for sharing your interests, knowledge, and abilities with such passion! May your own story continue for a long time 🤞🏻

Thank you Geoff for providing me with hours and hours of viewing pleasure. I was one of the people that found you through Londonist years ago. I remember finding Londonist after watching Jay Foreman's "Unifinished London" videos.

Thank you for the amazing videos you have made Geoff. A brilliant story.

It was through the Secrets videos I discovered your channel around 2015. Thank you for the all the wonderful videos

Been a joy to watch your channel over the years. Been here since the Newhaven Marine video, looking forward to the future!

Been following along since All The Stations, which was a real credit to you guys, id had the ambition to travel all UK rail lines at one point in my life, not quite there but it was fun in the late eighties with better trains, you show what is possible with the desire to create good content and just polish up a little bit beyond the general upload format

Great video Geoff you were the sole reason that I became interested in the underground and made my videos. Thank you

As a newbie to London and as someone who works in transport planning, I'm so glad I found your channel! Congrats on the subscriber milestone, I hope to see it hit 1 million some day :)

Thank you Geoff for the many years of entertainment! I too started with your "Secrets" videos on Londonist and then moved over to this channel once it became your main focus. It's great that public transport channels like yours can grow to such sizes, and in your case it's extremely well deserved! The editing, the shots, the pacing throughout, and of course the subjects make each video engaging, lively and very much worth watching. With your tube challenges and "All the Stations" you have definitely written a unique story for yourself already. All the best and here is onwards to 300K and beyond!

Always love your content Geoff . Nice to know where it started well done 👏 👏.

All the Stations brought me to you in 2020 and I spent so much of lockdown going though all your videos. I love it when a video pops up and I can spend 10 minutes learning things I never knew I needed to know. Keep them coming 👍

Great to know you have kept your old video and the old camera. Loved the personal history of your dive into video, and the underground.

It was secrets of the undergroud that got me hooked on your content, I hadn't realised this but I must have been following you almost from the start. Nice work mate!

A masterclass in video making and storytelling! Thank you Geoff

Tremendous Geoff well done mate, and many congratulations on not only your terrific content but for the joy that you bring to all of us 😀😀 have a good week and keep on doing what you do and stay safe David 👍👍

Hi Geoff have really enjoyed your content over the years and I'm sure the best is yet to come in your journey. All the best.

Been watching you since the start, been loving your stuff since the start!

Perfect storytelling and perfect editing - what's not to like? Bravo. A lot of time and effort went into this, I can tell.

Thank you Geoff, what a fantastic video. It was well worth the wait! I was late to your party, discovering your channel while in the first lockdown of 2020, having arrived in the UK only three days before. Your vids are so enjoyable, friendly, and easy to watch. I’ve almost caught up, but will then have to watch your Londonist episodes…….

Can't remember when I first found your channel but I'm so glad I have. There's just something about your presenting style and personality that really draws you into the stories that you tell, often around a transport network I visit perhaps once a year! Proud to have been just a small part of this journey representing the Bakerloo line on the human tube map video. Here's to the next 250,000 subscribers and many more years of wonderful content.

Thank you Geoff, you’re an inspiration. You inspired me to become interested in trains and even email Londonist with my ideas for films. I’ve lived in London 2 years now and your videos prepared me for life here.

This was a great video to watch, as I find all of your videos to be. I was first drawn to your work through All the Stations, and then watched every single video on that channel and (nearly) every single video on this. They're my little mental health breaks. A strong cup of tea and a few of your videos and I often feel a lot better. I find your content utterly enjoyable and I'm happy this wasn't a "I'm quitting youtube" style video, which a part of me had worried it could be. Thanks for giving me a calming place to escape to and keeping so many of us entertained - and educated!

I started watching your videos back in the Londonist days as well, and then moved on to your channel when you began regularly uploading new content. Shows how persistence and following your interests can lead you places you'd never have thought possible. I've learned a lot more about the Underground and UK rail in general from your RU-vid channel, and that in turn has led me to subscribe to other transit channels on top of it. Thanks Geoff for all the work you put in making these, even while navigating a pandemic, and here's to more in the future!

Your channel brings me so much joy! I love how most people see trains as just part of the "Daily Grind" But you always manage to share stories and info about all things trains with a different view...Fun, Interesting and joyful. Never stop Geoff! You're amazing. Maybe in the future you'll do some more traveling to other countries to make videos. I live in Sydney and I think we need some Geoff magic on our trains. :)

Very interesting video, thank you. I have been watching your videos for quit a few years and have enjoyed them all from the other side of the pond! Keep up the good work.

Great video Geoff so much fun to watch. Your videos always entertan me.

Well done Geoff. every day I look forward to your next video and it certainly got me through the lockdowns when I was isolated for months. Great stuff sir!
