It’s time to go to a very quaint End of the Line! In this episode, we’re all the way out in Zone 9 in the far top left corner of the Tube Map. Say hello to Chesham …

Kept waiting for an Alex Horne/Taskmaster reference as he lives in Chesham and various bits of the show have been filmed there.
we found the same with our oysters too a few months ago.
That was a very,very nice one!!! 😊
I like Chesham and I like Amersham, there's only one solution . . . .
I hope you hit Heathrow 5 last, and you then get on a plane and head back to the states for a vacation. Great series
OK, Chesham is one of those places I will go to this January, as I live only a few stations down on the Met line, and I will do exsct what Geoff did in the 1980s journey.
It’s such a London thing one Tube ride can go to a quaint station like Chesham and then into the maze at Kings X St Pancras.
Off topic but did you get to ride the Overground between Camden Road and South Hampstead when it was diverted over the xmas/new year period? I've always wanted to go over the Camden Lock bridge but only had chance at night when it was dark. I wish some of the Watford trains went that way and carried on to Highbury And Islington and beyond instead of Euston.
This whole series has been excellent. Geoff's infectious manner makes them so enjoyable.
At the behest of this video I travelled up yo Rickmansworth this morning and took the beautiful Chess Valley walking trail up to Chesham, which is wonderfully peaceful. Thank you Geoff, I think that makes you an influencer now?
Hmm I had estimated you being younger, but now we know… Great video, very nice station, although only 1 track, and 1 platform, all this features! Only a shame you also started sponsored videos. 😞 But I guess that is inevitable these days…
Now that we have Cross-Liz-Purp and ThamesLink operating, TfL stations should have their distance and direction from Farringdon Station listed.
I bet it'll be at least 10 years before anyone checks that suggestion box and reads your suggestion, lol.
That answers one of my questions
I thought the shuttle was ceased in 2000 not 2010 I could of ridden the last service
I would of only been at most 1 year old
3:23 OMG THAT GRAFFITI SPELLS MY NAME!
My favourite End of the Line video yet. I love Chesham, the place and the station. It has so much character and that old worldly feel with the station features. Also beautiful countryside on the branch line from Chalfont & Latimer and around Chesham itself. Another great video Geoff. 🙂
Why is 1 of 270 so much smaller
Can anyone help me please? I have a YouTube Premium subscription which is meant to have no advertisements, but there was an advertisement for a VPN part way through this video. Did anyone else have the same problem?
Another superb “End of the Line “ Series Geoff .. and the second one in my home county of Buckinghamshire. For your things to do in Chesham .. The Amersham & District Motorbus Society has an annual Classic Bus Running Day on 1st Sunday in October .. based at Chesham Broadway .. you can catch (for free!) beautifully restored 1950’s/60’s/70’s former London Transport Country Area (& London Country examples too) on routes out into the beautiful Chiltern Hills Countryside just when all the leaves are turning gold, red & brown .. they operate from 10am to 4pm .. a timetable & programme is produced .. funds from which help pay for the fuel of the RT’s; RF’s; GS; RML’s etc that provide the services.
I had my first acid trip sat at the top of jacobs ladder 🤣🤣
Yes, but what crisps and drink did you buy on your 1988 visit? Tizer? Vimto? Panda pops? Square crisps?
We need to know!
Good to see you in my area again. Regarding the Signal Box, I was at Chorleywood today and there was a poster saying there's plans to build a working model railway of Chorleywood Station in the old Signal Box. I'm looking forward to seeing that up and running.
Still awesome too see a fair amount of history at this station and It's been a joy to watch as always! Looking forward to Episode 11
Excellent series Geoff 👍
1:35 Even the Sainsburys Homebase branding is a thing of the past now.
I want that moquett (sp?)
The planes you can hear are on approach to Heathrow, probably looping round from the east to land on runway 09 Left….. Interesting fact about no Starter signal here, Ongar also worked with the 'one train in steam' principle, either from Epping, or North Weald (when the box was still open there) but Ongar had a Starter…… I wonder if Aldwych had one or was also worked from the timetable only?…..
I've lived in Chesham my whole life until about 2 years ago. I still go back every so often to see family. I'll always love that town. Great history and fond memories on the trains.
I’ll be spending 7 days in London this summer and I’m definitely adding chesham to that list
Suggestion box inception
I went to school in Chesham. Took many trips to and fro on the shuttle service and occassionally having to leg it through the underpass to make my Chiltern Railways Connection. The new integrated met line service is definitely better for getting into London there used to be a fair wait for a main met line train.
Excellent video and a great series, Geoff! I'll need to find my way to Chesham at some point in the future.
Thanks for continuing to subtitle your videos! On this one, the subtitles get stuck for about ninety seconds starting at 3:35 on the subtitle about the station building being lovely (which should start around 4:58)
What a lovely video. In particular it was great to hear your memories of visitibg as a child. Chesham will always have a special place in my heart as it was of course where we finished our Walk the Tube challenge together!
Geoff, have you ever heard of the Wuppertal suspension railway in Germany? I think it would be an interesting railway to do a video from.
I think Stanmore should be the next station on the series! My local station when I was younger and lots of memories of watching the jubilee line come and go from the end of my grandmas garden
8:22 just going to pick my no…oh wait there is a camera there….I'll pretend I'm musing.
