Your professionalism, knowledge and skill are inspirational. I am so glad that the Piccadilly Line people have given you permission to make these videos. Today has been very difficult as the motor neurone disease with which I live progresses and your video has given me a great deal of pleasure, thank you.

Nice to see train drivers wave to each other. We did that when I was a bus driver.

I'm all the way in Las Vegas. I've stumbled across this channel not too long ago and it's been a godsend,. Seeing this fulfills my childhood dreams of being a train operator, and seeing how they do it across the pond is fascinating. Cheers, all the way from the USA.

Dale. Your knowledge, skill and experience make that look scarily simple, but it belies the responsibility you all have as train operators. Well done 👍🏼

Hi Dale, thank you for this superb bonus video!  It's great to see inside the cab and watch you driving the train - the Piccadilly is one of the lines on which I have not ridden in the cab as a part of my past role in signalling engineering for LU, yet I worked on Piccadilly line signalling design modifications for much of my career with LU (including the design of the extensive changes to the signalling at Heathrow T123 in order to extend the line to T5), so it's great to have seen it all now via your excellent videos.  I'm particularly glad to have found your channel and am truly appreciative of the time and trouble you take in making your content so very watchable - thank you!

You are a credit to your company. Thank you so much for sharing!

Yes! Thank you! This answered the biggest question I've been having, which is what the bigger thunk is whenever you stop. It's you taking your hand off the handle.

Dale is in a giving mood lately, another treat, thank you!

Just love this channel. Every kid my age wanted to be a train driver. Never happened for me, but this is the next best thing.

I love that you always share more knowledge and your own stories when you do these videos. Cheers

Thank you!  Reminded me of Physics lessons in the `1960's - how Electric Motor windings, parallel and series, on the Underground gave more torque for starting, and higher speed on moving.....

Very interesting to see how many things you have to take into consideration when deciding the power level/brakes

Thankyou, so nice to see a driver driving and explaining all the controls plus the nuances of safely operating the train. Brilliant.

Brilliant video this mate, i think the camera angle is spot on especially when your explaining everything aswell, Definitely going to like and subscribe

I find how these older trains operate so fascinating, thank you so much for sharing this angle!

Very interesting indeed, especially the braking and your excellent commentary. Thank you, Dale.

bro has the coolest job in the world

I love this content, have it on in the background when working from home. It's actually very soothing :)

Thanks for that video Dale, much appreciated, love your videos of my favourite line

So cool. Toot the whistle, drop the hammer, then sip the coffee. I love riding the Underground and always wondered what it's like up front. A++++ video.
