    When Geoff says he's never doing this again... Mate, since then you've held the record twice and visited every single NR station in the UK...
  • @Scott757300
    Wow that’s insane to see Geoff 16 years ago! Amazing to think what he’s managed to do since then. Hope he sees this video!
  • @aviatorx4563
    12:30. 2002, Geoff wishes Shoreditch was closed. 2006, Shoreditch closes. Lol.
  • Not that it is not an achievement these days, but seeing Geoff work his magic with purely the knowledge in his head and some maps and timetables, pen and paper is quite remarkable!
  • @OlanKenny
    Big respect to both station supervisors featured. Also the cameraman who chased Geoff down those stairs. That was impressive
  • @robk23oxf
    11:11 Geoff predicts the London Overground 5 years before it started.
  • @MJofLakelandX
    Confirmed Geoff is the GOD of TfL planning. When he says things should be closed or increase service, he means it.
  • Geoff Marshall!! i just gotta say it... vicki looks different in this 1... and 275 stations?? thats a 15 storey building!!
  • @Ramash440
    Oh damn, Geoff was such a skinny boi.
  • @mxg75
    Vicki looks different in this one.
  • This is just a magically and forgotten documentary. Thank you #Spark . Thank you to whoever made it. Geoff Marshall, proof passion and persistence can bring success. His very own set of Youtube channels: and how many times has he held the record for all Tube stations since?
  • @jakeavis4170
    Didn’t realise that Geoff had been around for so long! So young in this 👶🏻
  • @Utonian21
    8:37 This was filmed in 2002 and it shows, everyone is reading newspapers and books instead of looking at their phones and laptops
  • I watched this on telly years ago, I always hear Geoff's voice in my head reminding me to get on the first train that comes, which is true unless it's a Northfields terminating train. They go slow and can get leapfrogged by Heathrow trains.
