So close yet so far.

[EASYTIGER10]

Obviously a Yorkshire Train. Once it's got south of York: "I aint stoppin at any nancy southern towns tha knows"

[Jonnyriffic]

@EASYTIGER10 Grand Central first started in Sunderland, so it's a North-Eastern train - the company was just bought by Arriva.

[rickindinglebutt1000]

[Jonnyriffic]

@rickindinglebutt1000 Grand Central.

[rickindinglebutt1000]

@Jonnyriffic i meant is it an hst or aldenit what every its called

[Jonnyriffic]

@rickindinglebutt1000 It was an HST. It says in the description:

"Filmed in the cab of a High Speed Train (Intercity 125) built in the late 1970s"

[billocici]

[Jonnyriffic]

The music sounds like a piece from the Sims game.

Compulsive viewing

[yorksteam]

The music is called mecurial flight!

[hmvmanuk]

@yorksteam Thanks, is the music available commercially do you know?

[mackem49000]

That was great.

[hmvmanuk]

What's the title of the music, please? Sounds like it's in the style of classic British light orchestral music. I like it, thanks.

[elaineysays]

Does not do justice to this journey - you get beautiful views of the coastline

[EdMcF1]

Peterborough at 4' 14".

[stuartmason100]

@hstscotsman - the signal changed to green a second or two before the train left

[boff737]

Looks like The Marauder, would have lost his headboard on this one!

[stuartmoss]

Great video, please get some more done, I'd be happy to do one for you myself if needed.

[jmcomms]

On the final approach to King's Cross, I'd be rather worried to see a train straight ahead of me - even if the points would divert me away safely!

[rlough1980]

Absolutely great. Well done. Can't wait to try the real thing.

[uhegbu]

Great video there and I cannot wait to board on this route launched in late 2007 on the East Coast Main Line.

[mickpickering48]

Excellent. Thanks for sharing this- although I can foresee accidents with the tea and coffee!!!!

[Felixjaz]

Great stuff!

[analogueman123456787]

Not quite in the same league as the original London to Brighton, and BTF's Let's Go To Birmingham I'm afraid...

[nferguso]

Absolutely first class - pardon the pun! Beautiful music too.
