My video from the 22nd February, where I travelled on Chiltern Railway’s ‘Silver Service’ from Birmingham Moor Street to London Marylebone. Some impressive noise coming from this Class 68, 68010, named ‘The Oxford Flyer’. Accelerating and going through tunnels sounded incredible as we sped towards London. It was the first time I had ever ridden the Chiltern Mainline, and was impressed by the 68’s acceleration and speed.
