The new DLR b23 train

YouTube video by The TfL Three I rode America's NEW High-Speed Train! (Acela Review)

New Video! During a recent holiday, Hugh got to ride the new Acela trains on their first day in Service! He also compares them to their predecessors as well as giving his first impressions of American trains.

“Railways aren’t profitable, we shouldn’t invest”
If closing a line (temporarily) sees a 40% reduction in business, perhaps opening new lines and stations could see a similar effect? If growth is the name of the game, surely it’s a good start! ~ Daniel

YouTube video by The TfL Three Travel across Central Europe! - Interrail with Daniel

New Video: In part 3 of his Interrail series Daniel travels through 4 countries in central Europe within a day by train!

I for one much prefer the photo thumbnail at Shildon, it shows to me that you’re really there and makes it feel as though there’s more personality behind it. ~ Daniel

YouTube video by The TfL Three A History of London Underground Stocks

New Video! Hugh takes a look at the history of the different types of London Underground, going line by line!

I’ve heard other creators complain about YouTube’s restricted mode, so I checked it for our channel. For some reason it hides our old video on Essex Road and, randomly, c2c fleet review. What is so NSFW about a Class 357? ~ Daniel

YouTube video by The TfL Three Who knew Polish trains were THIS GOOD? - Interrail with Daniel

New Video! This week in the second part of his interrail series Daniel rides trains in Poland!

So I’ve just found out that the editing software I use for videos (Adobe Premiere Rush) will be discontinued in September 2026. So, I’ve got a year to find a new one, preferably free/as cheap as possible, and can edit on my phone (I just prefer doing it that way). Any suggestions? ~ Daniel

Reminds me of Gold Coast Airport in Australia which is split between Queensland and NSW! ~ Daniel

YouTube video by The TfL Three RACE from London to Cambridge: GREAT NORTHERN or GREATER ANGLIA?

NEW VIDEO! Hugh and Daniel race eachother from London to Cambridge, one takes Great Northern the other Greater Anglia

YouTube video by The TfL Three This train was DISAPPOINTING - Interrail with Daniel

New Video! In the first part of his Interrail series, Daniel rides the Jointly operated Nederlandse Spoorwegen/Deutsche Bahn train from Amsterdam to Berlin and it was rather disappointing.

Who doesn’t love PKP pierogi? ~ Daniel

YouTube video by The TfL Three An exclusive look into the Jubilee Line's SECRET TUNNEL!

We’re back! In this new video Hugh takes a look inside a tube tunnel nobody has been inside before.

Why do they have the flag of Timor-Leste? 🇹🇱 ~ Daniel

Getting serious FOMO from not being there (Hugh was there but we couldn’t make it). Oh well, maybe it’s for the best I couldn’t come because otherwise I’d have spent my life savings on 507 merch! 😅 ~ Daniel
