Refurbished Central Line train on Ruislip branch 

Lots of moaners in the comment section I see. I can’t see anything but a 1000% improvement on the dingy original interiors. They’ve done a great job.

Goodbye Unrefurbished 1992 stock, we will miss you, I always rode it

I really like the new announcements. They don't sound nearly as robotic to me as the sub-surface fleet. Now get these on the Northern line. The butchered Celia announcements have had their day.

Although everything looks orange here, it’s actually red. Poles, moquette, front of the train and doors.

They have gone lazy on the exterior, First it could do with LED head lights like the 2009 stock to make the train more crisp and modern, Larger and more clear destination display and perhaps a red stripe below the windows like they done with the new piccdilly line. Other than that, They have executed the refurbishment pretty well

it will be a long time before we see more refurbished trains on the Central Line

Great vid, I feel the new announcements are a bit too verbose but probably quite useful for those with additional ailments. I was wondering, how do you track which train is gojng to be where? Is there an equivalent to RealTimeTrains for the tube that allows you to search the diagrams or is it just special insider knowledge?

Hopefully the refurbished 1992 stock trains don’t break down as much as the old ones

im gonna miss the old washing machines

1:45 i thought i was the only one that makes 3 tone noises

Great video! you did an amazing job of showcasing the tarin in the video. But i think it's a bit odd that there's bareley anybody on your carriage.

Nice video. Do you know when this unit be entering full passenger service, not just as a shuttle?

Great video. Maybe you could’ve added some clips of the unrefurbished stock for comparison.

Nice! When was this filmed?

Great video I really enjoyed watching this one😊👍👍🩷🩷🩷

I used to use the previous 1962 stock to and from work. From what I remember they were much better than the 1992 have ever been. At least you could open the Windows.

How did u get on the new one and what time you need to be there

Will new Central Line cover from Epping to West R.?

So excited to sit in these new trains

the new motor albeit not as fascinating as the old seems so far sounding quite reliable and can go stably 60mph!

this train is it bit sound like S7 stock

Are they not doing anything with the outside? Some of the roundels need to be replaced on the side of the trains

I added these paths to the emergency timetable - surprised to see them operating !

the announcmeents 'central line train to' 'doors open right side' and 'mind the gap' all have better versions already in use on the hainault shuttle. i dont see why they downgraded it. some things you didnt mention: - the moquette is apparently inspired by bogies and train wheels - the destination display on the front is now readable (omg) - the PRM area and new announcements were actually a requirement, and i dont think the announcements would have changed if otherwise (PRM would probably be there even if it wasnt required) - they converted to AC because its quieter and more importantly, the new AC motors are more reliable they should jave changed the open door button to the flashing light thing you find on 95 stock trains

How do you know when this was coming

Like the announcements

What a pity the opportunity was not taken to raise the height of the seats.

One thing I noticed is the screens don't show anything unless there is an announcement, hope they change that.

Imagine when the announcements of Adrian highest was saying *This is Hanger Lane, Change for Piccadilly Line at Park Royal, This is a Central Line train to Ruislip Gardens.* He’s like a fast robot, dude it had me laughing!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 LOL!!!

The motors sound nice 🙂

Hey brother i think we met on the train nearer watford jnc? On the electrostar. If so then good to meet you

These announcements are not temporary, they are the permanent new announcements replacing Emma Clarke and Sarah Parnell

I thought they kept the Old Central Line Announcer on this New Train

neat .. the only fast stock around there had been the aluminum A stock

When the announcement says will open it should say "The doors will open on the Right(or Left)In the direction of travel"

So they've got open/close buttons on the doors? I thought they did away with the buttons yrs ago

oh no there goes my childhood then

Can’t be love the open and close buttons are still there

tfl should have replaced the entire Central Line train properly insted of refurbishing it . these trians are too old 1992 class if iam not mistaken the technology is from the 1990s they should get new state of the art trains in line with these times. to resplce the old run down ones. make sure they are quiet as well as the old trains where too noisy and loud.

why does the motor sound like the Victoria line at 1:04

The new one sounds like a NYC subway stay away from the platform edge announcement.

Still sounds like the old motor when braking?

The train 91001 and 91201 will get DC sound motors will be much better than the AC.❤🎉

Nice youtube channel

Wait what?!

I wish someone could give me the diagrams of this train because I've tried twice to get a ride on it and I have been unsuccessful!

At the start, when the train is departing, it sounds like the Victoria line.

This refurbished train is rare who agrees?

It sounds like a mixture of the Victoria line and the circle/district/hammersmith&city/metropolitan line.

I hate the Motors and announcements it's sounds so off the current ones are so much better

When Are they going to get usable non-emrgency gangways

TBH This feels a little out of the ordinary for me, but i and many simply must experience in person I will say in the last few months, and year, I have been using the Central line frequently, but as much as TFL have addressed ongoing distruption & family who live close by Perivale Station say the service hasn't been good, for me it's been more about the ride comfortability i.e. battery operation related. I will admit, I am not a fan of the new announcement system, yet the reality is the line has needed a refurbishment of stock (at least to some extent), while anotheer line gets entirely new stock!

Why is it orange?

dang those unrefurbished trains were my childhood that and the hammeremith and city line trains forgot its name

It sounded like 2009 stock when leaving the station

hopefully they dont put these motors on the 96 >:(

my mum is in your video lol

the central line sounds like the s stock and when its at full speed, it sounds like a high speed diesel train.

im sure that door closing alarm wont get unbearable really quickly

Why are they orange?

why the tfl does refurbish train instead of buying new trains?

Ridiculous half hearted refurbishment. Completely new trains with air conditioning are needed.

What happened to the old announcement?

Am i the only one who kinda likes the announcements?

The motor traction is more similar S stock train, I prefer the original motor trains that sounds like jazz machine.

90km/h

The new announcements are awful

sounds like a heavy jet to me..

None of those seats is big enough for me. Assuming I even get one. I guess I'll just stagger about and tread on everyone's feet.

Same thing is gonna happen on the bakerloo line in the future

Another place to be subjected to the "see it, say it, sorted" noise pollution.

3 times buzzer cause more delays

The interior design and perhaps the announcers are the only good things about these refurbished trains, the AC motors sound Crap, I prefer the old Traction Motors

Gone the charm that was even motor's are awful

Fr

Still no AC and also its the central line so I'll try and avoid that horrid line and its trains :)

All that time, money and effort and they still couldn't be bothered to remove the non-functional open/close door buttons.

Why will the voice be replaced? Because it's a man?
