A solid 10 minutes of useless train information, which I slowly gathered up over the last 3 months.. One of my favourite videos I've ever made so far!

Unsure if this is a hot take, but YouTube should remove the "X of 10" feature.

All it does is stress you out wondering what the number will be, and if it's like, 8 or 9 or 10 of 10 then all it does is demoralise you, even if, say, a while ago that number of views would have been considered great!

I explored the Mail Rail tunnels in London!

This was originally going to be a long-form video, however I decided it was actually probably best suited for a short. So that's what I've done!

Unfortunately due to an editing mistake in the sponsored segment, I had to reupload today's video! My bad!
But hey if you haven't seen it yet, (or you want to watch it again so it doesn't get tanked by the algorithm) then here it is!

I realised this morning that the thumbnail for my recent video may have accidentally been a bit misleading. I meant it as "the first nationalised *Greater Anglia* train"

Thought it made sense in my head, but then again, this is why getting lots of peoples' opinions is far better!
Fixed now! Sorry!
