The reason for the whole exodus of movements was because of the strike action over that weekend so everything was out of place and being moved back around. Love the video aswell 😁
thanks so much! there was a few more, like a couple more class 90s and another colas tamper but didn’t manage to capture them, but i’m so glad you liked it!
Wow! The on-board footage of the train you're on was absolutely superb looking! Oh how trains have sunk to such a miserable degree of 'comfort' in The Netherlands compared to the British... Horrible seats, hardly any space for your legs (considering we are the tallest people on the planet, that's ridiculous), no compartments whatsoever anymore on almost any train we have so any screaming child or whatever nuisance is heard throughout the whole unit, tables that can't be called a table anymore as they are just unusably small... I do know traintickets are a 'thing' to grasp in the UK and (from what I hear) usually are very expensive, but darn, if that is the train you get...
I’ll be honest, what you’re seeing there is Avanti West Coast’s First Class section, which is pretty nice. But truth be told most, if not all modern British trains are hideously uncomfortable in standard class, with seats that can easily be compared with ironing boards 😂 It seems railways all across Europe are being ruined by safety regulations and greedy rich people 😔🤦♂️
Nice video thanks for sharing. There was a class 90 departing light engine under its own power that was shown as going to Chaddesden Sidings yet that's at Derby and not electrified so was the caption wrong?
i’ll be honest, i wasn’t sure with that one. i couldn’t find the working for the life of me on RTT so i assumed it must have been a prior cancelled working that has been re-pathed.. but i was wrong haha, thanks for letting me know anyway, glad you liked it :)
@@CalderTrains yes I've noticed that before. My daughter was at Weston super Mare station on Sunday last and saw a pair of 37s in between two snowploughs. On my TRAKSY app it showed up as 7Z21 and departed towards Taunton but there was no schedule information and when I checked RTT the moved wasn't shown.
@@andyadams3788 ahhhh no, common mistype 😅 thanks for letting me know. yeah you really should visit crewe, you’re always guaranteed a pleasant surprise!
Strange that as with the modern emergency alarms, the driver can override the application of the emergency brake application. Wonder if it was actually an emergency door release handle that got pulled
yeah that’s what i had thought, but my main thinking was that staff needed time to inspect the train to make sure it wasn’t a real emergency before the driver was given the all clear to set off again.. however i saw some people on the platform taking a photo of a particular part of the train so maybe it was because a door had opened 🤔
In terms of the odd sounds. I think the fast Hi-Low sound was Emergency Door Release / Passenger Alarm. And the slow 3-tone alarm tends to be Guard - Driver or Driver - Guard requesting communication. I have heard a fast 2 tone alarm a lot, tends to mean a call to the catering crew. You can see an example of the driver - guard request here: czcams.com/video/24uaIwr3kdk/video.html
Haha it was a very quickly planned day but we got incredibly lucky! there was even more than on the video too but i wouldn’t have been able to fit them all in 😂🙏
SIGNALS, I have seen some but are there any that show a NUMBER, 12inches square, black background with Leds, if so could you measure them if possible, I have seen some elsewhere, with 6 leds across and 7 Leds down - INDICATOR or SIGNAL - THANKS
@@NorthWestRailways OH, I have never noticed that, trying to remember just where online I had seem them, I thought they were somewhere else ahead, but I am sure some were out along the tracks, I notice there is some already made with one number only, I am planing for more to be setup with the points, do you have a picture please
trying to look deeper, other platform, 2 tracks, SIGNALs and "square box on top" 3 more tracks then #47 tail, :) trying to workout the SHADOW your platform, too hard
Where was the king of the rails steam is what I meant is what crew is famous for more steam less electric /deisels please steam reins Supreme ok and do not forget it steam is king and will all ways be.
I’ll be honest, i’m not huge on using tripods on stations as it could possibly cause disruption, especially at stations as large and important as Crewe, but I may use one at a smaller station if i use my camera to film 😊
Someone else commented with an idea that it happened in coach D Area 2, as it says D 2 on the PIS displays above, but it possibly might’ve been in the toilets 🤷🏻♂️🙂
thanks! this is really great 🚄
It's not often I could make it through an entire trainspotting video without getting bored. 😂
fantastic to hear! glad you enjoyed 😊
Lovely video I love how well designed and detailed the WCML is.
The three toned signal is a driver call to the guard.
Great footage/filming and spot on level with the captions, being informative but not obtrusive👍🏼
Aww thanks, glad you like them! 😊
Magnificent catches of the trains coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars, keep up the great work, my friend, Greetings from Portugal to the UK.
A big station where trains come one after another. wonderful.
I am subscribing to your channel. 😄🎵
Certainly is big and busy! Thanks so much for the sub! ❤
What a day! Thanks for sharing
No problem! Best day i’ve had spotting since the beginning 😁

Love the video aswell 😁
i thought that on the day, guess it was the right way of thinking things.. glad you liked it! 😊
Excellent video look forward to the next
thanks sm 😊
Really enjoyed your video, I am a new subscriber, I like all the detail you put on the screen.
thank you so much! 😊
I saw 47712 at Crewe on the way home from the Battle of Nantwich re-enactment; she looks splendid!
she certainly does! they really did a fantastic job of restoring her 😊
@@NorthWestRailways Yes a fine tribute to the late Princess Diana (RIP). I believe 47712 has worked the Royal Train in Scotland.
Bro this guy replies to all of his comments ❤
lmfao
Nice footage. 😊
Thanks, glad you liked it! 😊
What a video!
3 class 37s
A Class 56
A Class 47
2 Class 68s
And a class 67!!!! Wow!
Not to mention a tamper as well
thanks so much! there was a few more, like a couple more class 90s and another colas tamper but didn’t manage to capture them, but i’m so glad you liked it!
Salutări din România👋👋 iubesc aceste mărci adevărate fabricate în ENGLAND💞💞🚅🚂🚃🚃🚃🚦🛤🚧🇬🇧🇬🇧😃
Mulțumesc! Trenurile sunt fantastice aici și trenurile românești sunt de asemenea drăguțe! ❤
@@NorthWestRailways vă mulțumesc Domnul!!!!😃👍
great
😊
One of the few benefits of the strike. Information you show is good too.
thanks 😊 yeah the only thing i like about strikes is the mad rush of rolling stock when trains are back to running 😂
FELICITĂRI Prietene👏👏
Mulțumesc ❤

It was probably one of the trains that are not on RTT, there's a few at Crewe where trains are just moving yard.

Also not nitpicking but was 90039 not 90029 as in caption, great video with plenty of variety have to take a trip to Crewe soon

Such a lot of variety of different classes of train's, can't believe you managed to get all those in one day, you must have been very lucky!?🤔
Haha it was a very quickly planned day but we got incredibly lucky! there was even more than on the video too but i wouldn’t have been able to fit them all in 😂🙏
Notice it says D 2 on the display screen, It must mean it was pulled Coach D Area 2
ahh I see, that makes a lot of sense. Good spot!
Very good video, but for me the red colour on the sub titles are nearly unreadable.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll trial some new colours for future videos 😊
@@NorthWestRailways the green coloured subtitles at the end were clearer. Cheers

I had no idea that c2c runs a service from Nuneaton to Crewe. Is that a regular service?
it’s not a service, they’re testing their new fleet on this stretch of WCML to build up the mileage :)
@@NorthWestRailways Ah, that makes much more sense, thanks. Great video!

like, the ones which signal the trains platform allocation?

isthat one on other platform @8:44 of this video
trying to look deeper, other platform, 2 tracks, SIGNALs and "square box on top" 3 more tracks then #47 tail, :) trying to workout the SHADOW your platform, too hard
What has happened to Rachel and shaun Angel of crewe they seem to have gone i cant find them very 😢
Where was the king of the rails steam is what I meant is what crew is famous for more steam less electric /deisels please steam reins
Supreme ok and do not forget it steam is king and will all ways be.
Sorry, what about a tripod?
I’ll be honest, i’m not huge on using tripods on stations as it could possibly cause disruption, especially at stations as large and important as Crewe, but I may use one at a smaller station if i use my camera to film 😊
Probably happened in the toilet that is why it stopped..
Someone else commented with an idea that it happened in coach D Area 2, as it says D 2 on the PIS displays above, but it possibly might’ve been in the toilets 🤷🏻♂️🙂
C2C who are they?
C2C operate around the Essex Thameside area.. they’re not a huge operator but they were testing their new fleet on the WCML :)
Their London terminus is Fenchurch Street
