Well done for surviving that heat Ian, I don't think I'd be able to manage it in that heat. Elmstead wood stations garden looks lovely. :)

Petts wood is a lovely station & i did that station last year & i also done St Johns New Cross Chisslehurst & Grove Park before & are great stations & def agree about St Johns i like that station & id love to do Elmstead Woods one day as the gardens there look lovely & i wouldnt mind sitting in the gardens while filming the trains anyway brilliant vlog

Nice video on the Southeastern network Ian. Good to catch two 747s (which is a bonus shot of the vlog), and Rail Grinding train at Petts Wood. Elmstead Woods is a nice station to visit. Glad you went there for the second time (first one being in 2016). Keep up the good work 👍

Great vlog Ian. I’ve travelled down this line a few years ago just not done any of the between stations.

Great vlog Ian. I completed the Chase Line back in 2022. Once you get beyond Walsall towards Rugeley the stations are quite boring lol.

Well done on making it to 300 vlogs Ian, thanks for answering my questions as well. LNWR messing up just so you'd get a ride on 390 104 was just brilliant lol. XD

I love the Beam livery! Great vlog Sir. I couldn't survive in that heat. You did good bringing plenty of water. Glad you survived! Nice to see the wide range of rolling stock on the SE network. Petts Wood looks a gorgeous station!

Here's a route suggestion which is quite a short but a really nice route which is the York - Scarborough line, especially the bit between York and Malton is lovely

first of all congratulations on 300 vlogs & second of all thankyou for answering my question & some good answers in there & def agree about South Kenton as i love that stretch on the WCML & you could spend hours on that stretch & def agree about Piccadilly as thats also one of my fav spots for buses in the Uk as you can spend hours at that same spot & i did Glasgow Bus station back in May its a great spot for buses & def agree about the 195s & ill say 331s aswell as i love those trains & they are quick & i know the 195s/331s better than the 196 & 197 & im loving all the stations brilliant vlog as always

A very well done 300th vlog. Also thank once again, for answering my questions. Also should’ve guessed the goose would’ve, added in street deck bit, plus that sight on the penultimate train to Rugley, I don’t even want to know want to know what the goose has been up to lmao

No-one in their right mind would get off a train at South Bank! Fortunately Northern don't stop too many trains there.......

sorry again for so many questions lol, but outstanding vlog, ian!

Is that your 300th vlog?

Thank you for all that you do,it truly is very much appreciated. Keep well.😊😊😊

You have Great Wyrley & Lower Landywood one side and Cheslyn Hay & Upper Landywood the other 😊 for those into buses Landywood has the X51 as mentioned just a 30 second walk, and outside the Rugeley platform is the 71 to Essington & Wolverhampton. Previously had number 2 sapphire service to Walsall.

Great vlog Ian, whenever I do the stations between Birmingham international and New Street something always goes wrong. But I do enjoy filming trains and planes at Marston Green and Birmingham international.

A great video Ian, I always enjoy visiting Merseyside. Thank you for uploading this video 😊😊

the West Kirby line is a lovely line to ride on the Merseyrail network as ive ridden that line in 2022 & all the stations on that stretch look lovely & nice shot of 507001 shame i prob wont have chance to see it now as ive heard that the Southport line will become fullly 777s from next Month anyway brilliant vlog

350/2's to Liverpool? Naah, I think I'd wait for the pendolino personally lol. Nice to see that certain induvidual has a good use now lol. I'm gonna miss the PEP's when they're eventually gone.

great showcase ian!

Good Morning Ian, Love your video

Vlog 400, Ride a Streetdeck and record it! Also I managed to somehow survive this video after taking 2 breaks! Lots of Vastly Superior Sprinters. You Ego getting battered by LNWR and Avanti AND I LOVE IT!!!! Thanks aswell for going through me questions

Sorry not sorry but West Midlands clearly recognises Streetdecks and Streetlights as Superior buses for the Shithole called Walsall!

Great vlog from the Chiltern Mainline with Tico Ian. Definitely love filming Leamington spa with some great variety. 2 hours at Cannock trying to get home good Jesus!

I believe the set units thing came in when the Saltburn - Bishop Auckland service went from 1 train every 2 hours to 1 train every hour

Great vlog

im loving all the stations & all the stations look beautiful especally Saltburn briliant vlog

Lol imagine getting copyrighted by an ice cream van. I've never been down the Tees valley line myself, it does look amazing. :)

A very interesting video Ian, Thank you for uploading this video 😊😊

The murals at Cannock do look nice, but it's the only thing I'd visit Cannock for lol.

i rode the Chase line back in March but only as far as Cannock but i only went for buses but saw streetlites there & i also did Walsall for buses & i was lucky to snap the heritage livery trident there & i also did trains there aswell as Walsall is prob the best station for trainspotting as you get more traffic there with the Wolverhampton services terminating there too brilliant vlog

Thank you for uploading this video 😊😊😊

great vlog, ian! ur local line seems interesting!

Great video on the chase line Ian. Thanks for sharing 👍

When you flew with Ryanair you thankfully avoided the infamous seat 11A which is a seat with no window view. Honestly once you start doing more plane rides you will want to get back on again and again and who knows where you will be going to next. I wanna build my executive club status with BA lol.

Honestly, they never get the weather forecast right lol. Birmingham airport shouldn't of lost the international suffix at all to be honest.

i did Birmingham International back in March & its a great station & i also did Marston Green a few days earlier & again its a great station & awesome shots of 390119 & 350104 shame 121 didnt show up one day will get a full house brilliant vlog

i love Leamington Spa def one of my favs & a lovely station & im loving all the other stations & nice shots of the 68s & the ex Avanti voyager brilliant vlog

That 68 sounded hellfire on full power 😍 at Hatton

NOOOOOO NO no no no!! I refuse to believe there's a station called 'Petts' Wood 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sarah! Get over here there's a garden at Chelmstead Wood! Ian you couldv'e sent me that clip of the 747 passing overhead i would have glorified it

I DON'T LIKE SEAGULLS FFS!!! ONLY GEESE AND PIGEONS DAMMIT!! SKILL ISSUE!!

Brilliant as always to have the mad goose join you, shame you didn't run into 172 217 and/or 345 though lol. It seriously takes them forever to install a lift into a railway station? I feel sorry for you having to be at Cannock after WMR messed things up at the end of the day.

Great video on the CML Ian and nice to meet up with Tico. Shame that WMT ruined at the end. Thanks for sharing 👍

Great vlog Ian. I hate filming trains in a heatwave last September I abandoned filming 2 stations because it was too hot and I also cancelled 2 stations this year for the same reason and because LNR delayed my train. I’ve passed through these stations you filmed on the train last year but never got out.
