The Chiltern Turbo was the first train I EVER rode in the UK, from High Wycombe into Marylebone back in January 1992 when they were brand spanking new. Whilst I don't ride them all that often these days, I do see them a lot and fondly remember those times!
Came onto this video and channel from your most recent upload Jago, and a very good compilation! Having videos like this is actually really useful for me as just a backing video whilst I'm doing something like work! As my home operator being Chiltern this video caught my eye but Im certainly happy to have found this channel! Thank you Jago, and good luck with your future main channel videos (and that possible third channel)
I was at university in Birmingham for the past five years and whenever I needed/wanted to go down to London I would always take a Chiltern service when I could, the loco-hauled sets and the lovely stations at Moor Street and Marylebone make it generally more pleasant than LNW or Avanti.
Marylebone to Harrow on the Hill in 15 mins, boomtown. So quick and for the same price as the Met line train from Baker Street to Harrow. Sure I need to change at Harrow to the Met line but it also sales about 30 mins on a slow day
Only just found out this side-channel exists (thanks CZcams for removing the channels tab...). By the way, have you seen that new graph that details the passenger usage for all National Rail TOCs, TFL lines and Tram lines? It's a pretty insane graph.

I lived near Sudbury & Harrow Road station serviced by Chiltern Railways, so many memories watching them from my house

I quite like Chiltern Railways. Their services are very good and very punctual.
Thank you for this nice video, Jago. I wonder: is Marylebone station the only remaining terminus in central London which is not electrified?
I think so, but I hope the Chiltern line gets electrified eventually.
