- An excellent evening spent at the always brilliant station of Milton Keynes Central on the West Coast Mainline where we see plenty of services from Virgin Trains, London Northwestern Railway, Southern and freight from Royal Mail.
Milton Keynes is the busiest of the stations serving the city, there are actually six stations that can be found within the city but I really only count the three that are situated on the WCML.
Last year the station took in 6.851 million passengers.
The station was built in May 1982 so it really is one of the youngest stations on the West Coast Mainline, the station has seen a couple of redevelopments. Mostly this was throughout 2006 when platform 6 was introduced, this was to allow stopping express trains to use platform 5 in either direction. The other addition was to bring in a new bay platform with platform 2A. This was built for what extension of the Marston Vale Line, but subsequently this never happened and is now used mostly by Southern.
Milton Keynes has a bright future ahead with the introduction of the East West Rail Link in 2019.
You can now find me on Facebook through the group Tornado922, there you will find regular updates, videos and photos from all of my goings on throughout 2018

Great video love the west coast mainline
Thanks very much I'm glad you liked it
You can also see more Thameslink Class 700's on the Brighton Main Line between London Bridge and Brighton.
They are on the Thameslink network permanently now from Luton to Brighton
I loved it when you said the Next Train to depart is the bright light service to London Euston you are so funny and you make me laugh!
Well I just think adding humour into my videos makes them more enjoyable to watch :)
Tornado922 yes very enjoyable
Great video Tornado922
Fantastic Video Their As Always Tornado922 some great Viraty of Passenger And the Royal Mail 325s! :)
Once again thank you ever so much for saying so :)
Tornado922 That's ok No Worries :)
Your evil laugh sounds like someone is trick or treating you during Halloween hahaha. 😄😊
I've been told I can be quite an evil person haha
Awesome video and the speed though the Station was great as well 👍
Thanks very much I'm glad you enjoyed watching this :)
tornado922 i enjoy your videos they are excellent with the running commentary on each train that passes.
Thank you kindly for saying so :) I'm glad you like my commentary
@@Tornado922 fgh
I would also recommend for you to do some train spotting at Canley, Tile Hill, Berkswell, Hampton in Arden and Marston Green.
I have films on my channel from those stations
I just love your humour its absolutely brilliant lol
Well I do try hahaha, breaks it up a bit lol
No you have made princess holly cry 😢
The virgins just blaze through here, damn! Now that large building to your right houses the Car Park and Terminal, but is there more inside? I'd assume as it's quite large. By the by, great night work, awesome history and Play-by-Play with that LED Blue-light Special. Thanks! B.P.
I love the fact that the Virgin services are cleared to run through here at 125mph it really does show well at this station, the building adjacent to the station is in actual fact the main station building holding the concourse and several offices above. The Multi Story car park is located to the north of the station, I'm glad you enjoyed watching this I always enjoy coming to this station whenever I get the chance.
125mph, that's impressive! Offices, I knew there had to be something. She's a well built station so smooth flowing, great episode!! B.P.
Awesome video thanks for posting it
Thanks very much for saying so :)
Hey Stephen here’s a fact about Anne the train announcer she is not a real person she’s actually a recorder which is a type of machine .
My name isn't Stephen so I don't know where you got that name from. But either way I know that the person doing the announcements is a recording of a woman who had to read out the various station names across the network
Another great video
Thanks very much I'm glad you enjoyed watching this :)
Great video keep up the good work.
Thanks very much mate
Tornado922 No problem.
I have no idea what mare means but sometimes people find it hard to speak you know.
'having a mare' just means getting it wrong
great video as always
Thanks ever so much :)
I just love your humer it is funny I like it when you said she's of see you I just really make laugh I love it :)
If I can make people happy then in my eyes I've done a good job :)
Tornado922 yes you have done a great job :)

350 130: Birmingham New Street
221 020: Reading
390 008: London Euston
220 114 + 220 117: Shrewsbury
350 247: London Euston
220 115: Manchester Piccadilly

Seems like you ad a good time
I think for a future video you should think about Bescot in the West Midlands because you may well see double-headed DRS class 68s on the nuclear flask train.
I've been thinking about going there for a while now, I'll get it done this year
Avery enjoyable video.
TTPF
Thanks very much :)
Tornado, one thing that I noticed in your videos is that you say Wilsden is Wilsden junction I know it is a confusing one but Willesden junction is in Harlesden and is about a 2 mile drive from the actual Willesden I know, very confusing
To be honest I don't think the way in which it's pronounced makes any difference, if you listen to how the announcements say it on the LO and LU network it sounds very similar
I come from inverness. Yesterday I saw 158723 and 158724 and 170430 and 170429
Well you wont be seeing much of the 170's in due course as they are slowly being cascaded down to Northern if I'm not mistaken
Awesome Video Jarred :)
Thanks very much mate :)
And don't worry you will catch the new LNWR Class 350 livery when the time is right. 👍😃😊😀
I saw it last week at Cheddington
I would do Harrington because you will see more class 700 desiro citys there
Owenjedi5000 it's harlington
Sorry about that
Seems like I will be doing Harlington, everyone is voting for it
350370 continued to Birmingham I saw it that day
Righteo thanks for letting me know
What is your next station? Can you do St Pancras Int'l on the Thameslink Platforms on Platform B?
Uzair Khan rhe thamslink are not intresting
My next station is going to be Harlington
You mist the caldoner sleeper
I know
Why not go to Harlington on the Midland Mainline in the Video.
I'll be going there this week
Please go to Harlington on the MML and nice video
Well everyone seems to be voting for Harlington so I'll be going there this week
Have LNR Still got 319s
London Northwestern Railway has several 319's available to them, they have one set running on the Watford Junction to St Albans Abbey branch line and then I think they have 3 additional sets to work on the WCML from London to Milton Keynes and Northampton during the rush hour periods
will the voyagers get the new neutral livery?
Mason_H No only the Pendolinos will get the neutral livery
Trains at Harlington :)
I think that seems to be the crowd favourite :)

For something like that I will need to get planned months in advance, I can't just go to Aberdeen at the drop of a hat
