I enjoy cab point-of-view videos. Here is one that was posted recently, covering a trip from Sunderland to Kings Cross, London. Its interesting to see the stations, tunnels and old bridges along the way, as well as the trackage and signals. The music is pleasant, also. Enjoy!

Wow...it bothers my eyes. I bailed after about 10 seconds.

Yes, it is a bit frenetic. I suppose you can slow down the speed...don't know how the music would sound, though.

Interesting to me that the first stop is where my grandfather was originally from, Hartlepool!

Here's a remake of the all time classic (In the UK anyway.) cab-ride. And it's 3-rail electric all the way too.

Wait a minute! I left my stomach at the last stop!

The stediness is testimony to the quality of UK trackage.
