This is a reworked and reuploaded version of the original video.
Hello all! :D
Following the withdrawal of the last Class 483 in January 2021, I felt it only necessary to cover the history of these 83 year old trains, as well as go into the backstory of these pioneering units when they were first put to work on the London Underground, helping to revolutionise tube train design.
For a more in-depth look at the 1975 Moorgate disaster, I thoroughly recommend Jago Hazzard's video on the topic which can be found at the following link:
