Trains at Newbury (NBY) 28/08/2024 - Berks & Hants Line
zhlédnutí 110Před dnem
My first visit to Newbury. I wasn't expecting a great deal, but it turned out a nice little session. Just the one passenger company operating out of Newbury, GWR. Included is a little bit of freight including a double header. New for this video were some shots of the station, most of the train footage was taken from platform 1. My visit lasted just under two hours before heading back to Reading...

zhlédnutí 100Před 14 dny
In this video you will see class 37, 59, 66's, 68's & 70's locomotives. In my opinion, Leamington is the number 1 spot for filming freight and other loco moves on the Chiltern Main Line. Do you agree?

I don't often record on a Sunday, but this was well worth the effort as I rarely travel over to the East Coast mainline. Seven train operating companies in total, so plenty of variety. With two platforms, two through lines, and great lines of sight this is a great station for action. This is the highlights of a two hour session, all recorded from the southern end of platform 2.

I spent two hours at Longbridge, a station managed by West Midlands Railway (WMT) looking for Class 730 which have been in service for a few weeks. Only WMT trains stop here with the station being on the Cross City Line. Trains are currently terminating at Birmingham New Street due to rail engineering work in the Aston area. This means the Northern part of the Cross City line is out of action a...

Thanks

@Dawseylikestrains895, cheers.
Great video Andrew. Nice to catch two 59s at Newbury 👍👍
Thanks Arnold, it was good to see the 59's,there are some funky liveries around on these beasts. They seem very popular on this route and the Reading area.
@spectrumtrains True and the Acton Main Line area, too
Nice!
Thanks
@@spectrumtrains You are welcome! 😊🙂
Nice video!
Thank you 😊
I like it when you record the details on screen of where the train is from and where it`s going.5 stars

2:01 This Voyager Has Been Upgraded.
Didn't realised it had been upgraded. I thought it was just transferred from Avanti. Thanks for watching.
Top notch from this driver.
Hey Andrew, did you see a 390 119 on 1S45?
I sure did. 👍
Excellent video, Andrew. Nice to catch two 59s, the Caroline and 221114 (ex. Avanti West Coast). It looks like you had a good day at Oxford 👍. Well done, and keep up the good work! Take care, Arnold
Thank you, Arnold. Oxford always throws up quality spots. Have a great week.

I love this comment. Thanks for watching.
I love this video and it’s extremely excellent 😊
Thanks 😊
Nice one on catching the freight diversions (the ones that didnt go to quainton) and the diverted british pullman!
Thanks, it's always good to see some variety on the Chiltern line.
@@spectrumtrains indeed it is, if you were thinking of visiting again it has DCR and GBRf freight now too!
@ChilternRailPhotography Thanks for the heads up. I appreciate it 🙏
Excellent video!! 👍
Thank you 😊
Give your transport channel a shoutout below.
Nice video, my local station
Thank you 😊
It's weird to me that the 800s don't tilt... Isn't that going to increase travel times slightly on the WCML? I mean the trains they're replacing were able to tilt.
I am not sure about journey times, but the advantage is the change to bi mode to aide partial running on electric where overhead exsists instead of running class 221 on diesel the whole route.
@spectrumtrains of course, and that stuff is great, but it just seems like a small backwards step? Maybe I'm overthinking but the Voyagers weren't made to tilt just for decoration, it's just weird the replacement trains can't so the same
I once had a girlfriend who lived right next to this place and I used to lie in bed trying to sleep, considering taking a can of WD40 to those bloody rails.
Some reasons for not sleeping are exceptable, but living next to Clapham Junction would be a nightmare for some.🤣
Hey Andrew, did you see a 390 121 on 1A40?
I did 👍
Yes, that's beautiful.
👍
Nice catch Andrew. A class 59 would be better with the aggregates train cause they have more power than 66s
Thank you.

Hey Andrew, did you see a 444 002+019 on 1W25?
Yes, it is always nice to see different liveries, thanks for watching.
😳 Man, how fast do these yellow trains (avanti) go ? is this England ?
Very fast. Thanks for watching 👀
@@spectrumtrains how fast do these avanti trains go ? are they bullet trains ?

Love how that horn on the 66 and 69 went in rhythm with the music
Yes, tones of the year so far. Thanks for commenting.
Another super video, Thank you. Good catch of 69009 'Western Consort'!
Thank you, 69 009 was a pleasant surprise.
Nice video of varied TOCs. Appreciate that you identify the locomotive/train numbers. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much!
You did well , getting 4 of the new 805s in one session.
Hi David, yes it was good to see the 805's out in force, hopefully they will be in service soon!
Great action at Nuneaton Andrew 👍
Cheers, Arnold. I enjoyed filming the video. Thank you for supporting the channel.
@spectrumtrains No problem Andrew
Lovely ❤❤❤😊
Thanks James 😊
I was at Tamworth Station that day and seen most of these trains
Hopefully, you had extras on the high level.
Wow nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
@@spectrumtrains np!
Took me a second look to realise that the 805 was in diesel mode… wow it’s silent
It's very quiet. Thanks for watching.
I'm amazed at how quiet the class 800s are they're magnificent!
Agree 💯, thanks for commenting 👍
class 805's and 807's
@@fuzzyblueProductions4553 And then we have the 810's next year over at EMR.
@@spectrumtrains yes
A lot of people like to slag off the 800 series trains, but I think they are actually impressive Bi-mode trains and far better than vomiters being generally quieter even on Diesel. A lot negativity revolves around the seats but the 805's will have different seats, the livery is quite striking, better seating capacity than 221's and eliminate a lot of Diesel running.
Cheers Ian, let's hope the 805 is a success.
Great video…subscribed 😎👍🏽
Awesome thank you!
