Nice video :) So many non-stopping empty stock Javelins, and one double unit that stop at the former International platform for letting the very delayed passenger service for St Pancras passing through :) Thus, lot of these Eurostars are passing slowly through the middle lines :) Cool the TMST in his original livery, though :)

Bro choo choo plane I’ve been subscribed to you for a year and you just can’t stop making these wonderful videos. Also I subscribed from the video when you went spotting at tgv haute picardie

I have a few questions about the station: 1) what is security like with people filming here? 2) do you need a ticket to get on the platform? 3) which is the best platform to spot at?

@CHOO-CHOOPlane

Security is very hit-and-miss with spotters, this happened to be my luckiest spot there. And yes you have to buy a platform ticket (and let them know if you stay longer than an hour), and because the Eurostar depot flyover cuts the island platform in two, you are better off staying at the top end of platforms 2 & 3.

would have needed a completely new set of tunnels, canal tunnels are thameslink and run at at least 8tph. Would have had a very low speed if those were used, a more sensible option for HS2 in general would have been tunneling from stratford and old oak to euston, and building euston as a through station. Would have required more dedicated planning in the mid 2000's, but would have provided a more integrated high speed network.

Even if a battery was large enough to power a train, it would eat up way too much charge for a high-speed train to use. This is why the only real successful battery electrics are switch engines. Between their effective range and the amount of time needed to recharge, it'd be even less efficient than running a diesel-powered train.
