Can't help but think about the people that laid these tracks, built the bridges, and forged through rock to make tunnels. Remarkable achievement!

@markedwards6147 Год назад

Hi Paul, totally agree. That is something we should all reflect on. It is sobering to think that some men probably died, too, because these were Nineteenth century and Victorian era times. No 'health and safety' or worker rights back then. Sacrifice to deliver the literal building blocks of a pre industrial society. I could watch this stunning video all day long. Unparalleled beauty.

Incredible. We are looking at millions of man-hours through cold, rain, wind and snow. Route planning, grading, embankments, tunnels, drainage, bridges and maintenance. This video is an eye-opening testimony to a magnificent engineering achievement. There is much to be proud of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

@philipgrieve394 2 года назад

Lovely scenery but can we please get rid of the music and have the sounds of the train instead. Captions giving station names would be helpful too. Note some comments regarding sun glare but we wouldn’t get the beautiful autumn colours if filmed in summer when the sun is higher in the sky.

Reading the comments, so many people don't enjoy the music.. I love the music that you picked, very relaxing and calming. I do agree about shooting the video into the sun, but you can't change mother nature. If the train was heading in the opposite direction, the video would be perfect. All in all I loved your creation here, and I really enjoyed the music you picked for it.. I would also like to hear the real train sounds, many do half music and half real train sound. That would keep some of the music haters happy. (and us music lovers also) I liked it a lot!! thank you!!!

@HU1212ICAN3 6 месяцев назад

I normally absolutely despise music with stuff like this. But this is the one time I felt it was proper. I do, however wish they found longer tracks lol. A new song every minute and 30 seems weird. I personally enjoyed the first one, and thought it was fitting, and it ended and it was kind of jarring.

@HU1212ICAN3 6 месяцев назад

For those complaining about the music: this is more than likely an intereor cam, and most modern trains are well soundproofed and the rails(especially the newer looking built ones in this video)dont make sounds like you think they do, because the trains are built to mitigate noise. It would just sound like an empty greyhound bus. Edit: @National Rail, thank you for not cutting the tunnel at 22:45 ! Even though we can't see much, it was neat seeing the light at the end!

@tango6nf477 Год назад

Personally I think this video is a breath of fresh air. The music is a perfectly appropriate accompaniment to the atmospheric lighting which shows up the beautiful Scottish highland scenery. There is no clickety clack of the rails as audio recording of cab conversations are not allowed. I too enjoy cab ride videos but cannot claim to be an "aficionado" and it makes a nice change to have a soothing musical background, which can always be muted of course.

Could have been an amazing video had it not been for the terrible lighting conditions, I gave up after 10 minutes. I've travelled over this line twice, once in poor weather and once in medium conditions. On both occasions it was an enormous experience, this for me doesn't cut it and detracts from the amazing engineering and awesome scenery....!

@kingrobert7246 Год назад

Lovely. Now only if public transport was affordable…

@alanmusicman3385 2 года назад

This looks lovely, but only intermittently! it's such a shame that so many of the videos in this series seem to be shot travelling into the setting sun or in deep shadow. The Exeter-Paignton video was the same. Surely it should be possible to get cab ride videos done at more suitable times of day for seeing these routes in their full glory?

@dear-sir 2 года назад

And worse, if thats possible, is the completely inappropriate, loud music soundtrack. Fans like me who are cab ride aficionados want to hear the mechanical sounds only.

@allanmason3201 2 года назад

It's a lovely part of the country and a very scenic line, but it's a pity that this was filmed in winter. The sun being so low in the sky resulted in the camera's automatic exposure adjustment making much of the scenery so underexposed it's just a mess of black silhouettes, particularly during the early part of the journey. Also, while bare trees do have a stark beauty, the Highlands in summer are stunning.

After watching 3 of these videos, I have realized that the beautiful haunting music is meant to give the journey an atmosphere that is different to the normal clacketly clack, throbbing Diesel engine sound of most of these type of vids. It gives the whole experience a magical quality, or is it just me? I am really impressed by it and the way the music was picked and added to the vid, someone has put a lot of thought into this.

@dennann5101 2 года назад

@GlassCabinet12 8 месяцев назад

The comments here are so strange. Why are people offering film technique tips when it's clear they just strapped a camera to the train and captured whatever it captured - sometimes the train will be travelling into the sun it's not like they can change that. personally love the music. It's relaxing!
