North Woolwich to Richmond Cab Ride DVD

North Woolwich to Richmond DC and AC
This cab ride was filmed from the driver’s cab on a North
London Railways service with EMU No. 313005. The departure
from North Woolwich was at 12.45 with arrival at Richmond at
14.00. The single line route from North Woolwich was to Custom
House where we then take a double-track section alongside the
Docklands Light Railway system.
We pass by the new Jubilee line which was under construction at
the time of this filming. North of Stratford, we join the North
London line at Lea Junction and start our route around the
London ‘circular’ line to Richmond. At Camden Road the
pantograph is raised as the third rail ends. Our train now
proceeds on 25 KV AC as far as Acton Central where we return to
the third rail system.
At Gunnersbury Junction we join the District Line to Richmond,
The programme was made for crew training purposes with a
Traction Inspector present at all times.
Duration 1 hour 10 minutes
