Real-time public transport journeys — exactly as they happen.
This channel documents full train rides, London Underground journeys, National Rail services, trams and other transport experiences across the UK and Europe. Videos are filmed silently in 8K 360° on an Insta360 X5 and reframed to 4K 16:9 for an immersive ultra-wide viewing experience.
My focus is on capturing the scenery and the natural flow of life onboard — no commentary, no music, no distractions. Using 360° filming, each journey shows both the interior atmosphere and outside views through both sides of the carriage.
Where possible, journeys begin with the train arriving at the platform, followed by boarding, the full journey, and disembarking at the destination.
🚇 Regular uploads feature London Underground, Overground and National Rail, with additional journeys from Berlin & Prague

Some bad news
I’ve spent most of the week in hospital, being released Thursday evening.
So i’ve had another bad health setback, the life and energy has been sucked out of me.
I’m currently not well enough to go out and film, I need to spend the next few weeks chilling out, but if and when I do I’ll have to stick to long runs, basically runs that have the very minimal walking, and I’ll probably need special assistance.
So scheduled for midnight is Paddington to Penzance, the return is still rendering so hopefully I can post that Sunday

A quick update regarding tonight’s upcoming upload:
🚆 Southeastern – Faversham to London Charing Cross | 3h49m
At 3 hours 49 minutes, this is currently the longest scheduled Southeastern passenger journey, travelling from Faversham to London Charing Cross via Ramsgate, Dover Priory, Ashford International and Tonbridge — covering a huge stretch of the Kent Coast before heading into central London.
While reviewing the final edit, I felt most of the onboard announcement chimes were excessively loud, which would become annoying during a nearly 4-hour real-time viewing experience — especially for headphone and TV viewers.
As a result, I’m currently re-rendering the video with adjusted audio hard limiting to improve overall viewer comfort while still preserving the authentic ambience of the journey, simply put, the general audio will be the same volume, just with a ceiling that loud sound will sound much lower.
The upload is still expected at midnight tonight.
I’d rather spend extra time refining the viewing experience than rush out a version I’m not fully happy with.
Thanks as always for the continued support.

I do love the whine these Greater Anglia trains make, is there anyone in the know that can tell me if that’s coming from below or above?
