I loved this walk through of the whole complex and would definitely like to see more! I would also love to have the drone in the sky, fixed in a specific location and create a timelapse for the length of the battery life of the drone just so that I could watch the goings on at the station for a bit. π 30m compressed into a couple of minute timelapse would be great!
Great Video, can't wait to see more
Great video! Keep 'em coming, please!
A great video as others have said, a few minor errors in your narration, one of note was the portal of HS1 quoted as HS2. The gasholders are original but definitely not in their original place.
Very interesting.
I love the drone footage of anywhere in London! More, please!
More please!! Everything you can think of please!!
Is this drone footage legal?
Brilliant. More please. I recently did a walk from Paddington to St Pancras along the canal passed the former gas holders. Thanks
Excellent views of London. Better than google. Please keep adding to the content. Thanks, and cheers.
Excellent!!
st panc is 3 groups that you can see , local , Eurostar and mml … which is not dirty due to diesel engines.. its dirty cause they cant be bothered to clean it … for now this is still the start of the HS1 no link with HS2
Superb! πππ More please. Definitely.
Moot point: was Waterloo HS0?
The concrete yard may find itself moved to become London North once they start running HS trains straight through. There's a spur off HS2 planned behind Camden Stables to the North London Line.
This is awesome
Great video. BTW, I believe the old clock face was broken when it was taken down.
hm, its a tiny train station!
Leipzig train station got 24 platforms….and Leipzig isnt that of a big city!
Hansons don't dispatch anything by train from that location, but receive almost daily trains of cement, sand and gravel for production of concrete, see all the trucks lined up awaiting loads….bringing in raw material by train load saves so much heavy traffic, whilst still having an almost central London source of ready mixed concrete. excellent video, would like to see many more
This is AMAZING. It's like a giant model railway. Love the details and your knowledge is very impressive. I used to come down late 80,s early 90,s. The place is unrecognisable π
Fantastic video, so much detail and history here. Thankyou, keep them coming.
Great Video and I also would love more presentations about the railways In London. If its possible could you do one on the Royal Mail Depot at Willesden always wondered how the mail gets on to the rail network
As a boy in the late 1950s and 1960s I often used to travel into St Pancras from Luton. The gasworks were always the sign to get ready for our arrival.
Should check out the eurostar depot and greater anglia sidings at orient way
Great video, but you repeatedly refer to HS2 tracks and tunnels, which are actually HS1.
Such wonderful, high-quality arial views!! And informative commentary!! π As a new subscriber (Virginia, USA), I sincerely hope that you will do more videos on London railway landmarks! (β¦the triangular junction with the cement batching plant carefully tucked inside, along with the various intersecting and crossing lines, looks like a spectacular model railroad layout!π€©)
I'd love to see more of this
I am very interested about railways from above. Many thanks.
Hi Nicholas, Just found your very informative & enjoyable channel. Keep it up sir. Would have been great in the Kings Cross episode to have been given an idea of where the 3 tunnels emerge, a drawn in arrow or circle maybe. I also watch Secrets of the Motorway which covers that network nationwide, just a thought. Now subscibed. ππ
Wonderful video, love the videography and commentary. Would love to see you do Waterloo if possible.
Wonderful thank you I am from Perth western London on holidays every year before the loved going to Paris for the day, love to see more videos as I am now too old to make the 17 hour non stop flight from Perth to London.
