  • Wonderful thank you I am from Perth western London on holidays every year before the loved going to Paris for the day, love to see more videos as I am now too old to make the 17 hour non stop flight from Perth to London.

    Hansons don't dispatch anything by train from that location, but receive almost daily trains of cement, sand and gravel for production of concrete, see all the trucks lined up awaiting loads....bringing in raw material by train load saves so much heavy traffic, whilst still having an almost central London source of ready mixed concrete. excellent video, would like to see many more

    As a boy in the late 1950s and 1960s I often used to travel into St Pancras from Luton. The gasworks were always the sign to get ready for our arrival.
  • Excellent views of London. Better than google. Please keep adding to the content. Thanks, and cheers.
  • @hiviolet007
    I love the drone footage of anywhere in London! More, please!
  • Fantastic video, so much detail and history here. Thankyou, keep them coming.

    Wonderful. Thanks you Nicholas. I for one would love to see some more presentations like this of existing rail (and maybe other) infrastructure in and around London. I can only watch in 2K at the moment but I really appreciate the high resolution. Does mean that I'm a tiny bit disappointed when the camera zooms in a lot and looses resolution though. Might get a 4K monitor just for things like this!

    Great shots of St Pancras and surrounding area. It also shows how easy it would be to connect HS2 to HS1!

    Hello Nicholas, wonderful video thank you. It might help when you compare the old station with the new to point out that the tracks remain at the same high level. This was in order to fly over the canal, unlike Kings Cross which tunnels below it. So the track deck was cut open to expose the earlier beer cellers, (which had received Ale from Burton on Trent), to expose a new shopping mall below. Hence the square brackets on the old cast iron columns.

    Brilliant. More please. I recently did a walk from Paddington to St Pancras along the canal passed the former gas holders. Thanks
