🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Great video Ross. Nice to catch TnT 73s and unexpected Thameslink 700 from London Bridge
Thank you Arnold! Although a lot of focus was on the 313s disappearing, Thameslink also withdrew its only two 700 services from Littlehampton in May so my trip had a dual purpose. 😃
@@StarlifeStudios Yes is a shame to see the 313s go ☹️😞
Such fantastic machines, we still have a little while before the last PEP completely disappears (MerseyRail) but that day is approaching 😞
@@StarlifeStudios Yep 😢
A Minutes Silence for the Littlehampton Harvester❤
My condolences for everyone impacted by that, I'm not a resident of Littlehampton but I wish everyone the best in repairing their lives. 😔🧡
@@StarlifeStudios Same here! It was devistating, I used to go to Bognor Regis with my family for a day out and then go to Littlehampton Harvester to end the day :( ❤️
What happened ?
@@rajeshsen4219a fire burnt the harvester restaurant down
And for the 313s I went to that harvester last month
Great to see semiphores still action. Excellent footage, thanks for sharing.
Thanks SR 👍🏻 This station has hardly changed since the steam era and its awesome 😃
Awesome video
On the Hurstbridge Line as of 2018, the level crossing at Lower Plenty Road, Rosanna was removed by building a skyrail with a new elevated Rosanna Station, which also included track duplication between Rosanna and Heidelberg and the level crossing removal at Grange Road, Alphington by lowering the rail corridor beneath the road into a rail trench.
And as of 2023, the Hurstbridge Line Duplication was completed which included around 3 kms of duplicated tracks between Greensborough and Eltham and around 1.5 kms between Diamond Creek and Wattle Glen. Around 4.5 kms of track duplication in total between Greensborough and Hurstbridge. Diamond Creek Station got upgraded and Montmorency and Greensborough Stations got completely rebuilt.
Now they are planning to remove the level crossing at Ruthven Street, Macleod by 2027 by building a skyrail over the road.
Also the rail tunnel under Greensborough Highway in Watsonia will be extended a few hundred metres longer by 2028 and there will be a multi-deck car park built at Watsonia Station also by 2028 as part of the North East Link.
make sure to watch to the end for a treat!
Indeed! Thameslink withdrew their only two class 700 services to here in May. Unfortunately, this station only sees Class 377s now.. 😔
Going to miss the 313s
But this time, it has been already withdrawn from service
Good video as usual
Thanks Johnny, I haven't filmed the 313s too much so I made an effort to make sure I picked some up before they went. Some of them were in bad shape though 😔
Amazing video as usual! 👍
Once again, been looking forward to a new video on a Sunday at 12!
Thanks Zeeblox 😃
@@StarlifeStudiosNo worries
The Metro Tunnel is on track to be completed by 2025 and it will have the Sunbury, Cranbourne and East Pakenham Lines running through it. Also it will have direct airport connection via the Melbourne Airport Rail Link by 2029.
There is also the Suburban Rail Loop which is a 90 km rail line from Cheltenham to Werribee via Melbourne Airport. It’s still 3 decades away from completion, but half of it from Cheltenham to Melbourne Airport will be underground with SRL driverless trains.
This is the UK not Australia
Noice one pal 👌🏻
Thanks David 👍🏻
Great video.
Great Video you made there Starlife Please Upload more I love you're Videos! 👍
Nice video i filmed a 377 depart VIC to this station
Love the atmosphere at this station, the staff are awesome too, just a shame theres no tea shop nearby! 🤣
@@StarlifeStudios 😂
Nice video Ross. 73s and 313s what more can you ask for 😊
So sad the 313s have gone 😢
Afternoon Ben, Can I request if you know 5Q10 will run on Tues (26th) next week? Thanks 😊
@StarlifeStudios yes I can confirm 5Q10 09:13 Derby Litchurch Lane to Eastleigh TMD is running. Do you want to know the loco booked for it?
@benGBRf Awesome 👍🏻 Thank you. I’d love to know the booked loco. I don’t suppose you know if this also timed for a 701/0 or 701/5 drag?
@@StarlifeStudios 47749 booked with a class 701
@benGBRf many thanks :)
I love your videos keep it up I enjoy it
Many thanks Martin, I really appreciate your support!
Great Video, Watch You All The Time... But How Are You Filming The 313's Aren't They Scrapped??
Half of those 313’s are now scrapped in Eastleigh
Nice video!
Thanks Martin, glad you enjoyed. The 313s are gone from Southern now so this was my last chance 😞
That's sad. 🫤
Love the vid! What camera/camcorder do you use and you think you'd be able to film at Orpington or St Mary Cray?
Great video! I wish I were able to make videos like this :( What equipment do you use btw?
Littlehampton railway station is in Littlehampton in the county of West Sussex, England. The station and the trains serving it are operated by Southern.
The station is a terminus at the end of a short branch off the West Coastway line. It currently has 4 platforms, two of which are of twelve carriage length, one of eight carriage length and one of seven carriage length. It is served by and Class 377 "Electrostar" trains.
Long live those semaphores!
Their going soon I heard
The Class 313 that Southern had before are now long gone and replaced by the Class 377. Southern could inherit the Class 377/5 from Southeastern that would be used on the East Coastway Line and West Coastway Line routes and on the suburban services in and around South London.
Or Southern might of ordered new trains to replace the Class 313 just like Great Northern replaced the Class 313 on the Northern City Line with the Class 717 Desiro City.
Interesting thoughts, I hate the way the media has spun the withdrawal of the 313s into 'the coast is getting better trains' whilst the 377s fleet is stretched just to cover all of the Southern network.
Whilst I agree that the 377s are an upgrade on the old 313s.. this is at the detriment of the South London lines which are in desperate need of lengthened trains, especially on Saturdays!
I'll stand by what I've said before, Southern is going to need more stock, I guarantee.
Nice! Great To See 313’S, what equipment do you use to record the videos?
Those 313 are all scrapped now taken to Eastleigh
Pls I would love to see trains at truro
RIP class 313
This isnt the last 313 video 😃 Some 313s still exist at Eastleigh but are being cut up everyday (www.carlswatson.com/trains.html)
What is the app you use to check the trwin where it came from
I think he said he uses a website called RealTime Trains if I remember correctly
As @@Ro99 said, I use Realtimetrains and Traksy.uk. Thanks 😃
@StarlifeStudios can you download the app
@@everythingmymixyt1-q8tnope they are websites
@PGATProductions so how does he put where there going in the video at the same time video checking thr website then putting it down
Can you do Deptford Next Please
I love your videos from bulgaria and ukraine 🇧🇬🇺🇦💖✌️
Hello from the United Kingdom Zaporizhzhiaball! 🇬🇧
On the South Morang Line as of 2018, the Mernda Rail Extension from South Morang to Mernda was completed and it included 3 new stations at Middle Gorge, Hawkstowe and Mernda. Middle Gorge Station was built on ground level and Hawkstowe and Mernda Stations were built above ground with skyrail. And that train line is now called the Mernda Line.
And as of 2019, the level crossing at High Street, Reservoir was removed by building a 1 km skyrail with a new elevated Reservoir Station.
Then as of 2022, the 4 level crossings at Murray Road, Cramer Street, Bell Street and Oakover Road in Preston were removed by building a 2 km skyrail with 2 new elevated stations at Bell and Preston.
Now under construction, is the level crossing removal at Keon Parade, Keon Park which will be removed by 2025 by building a 750 m skyrail with a new elevated Keon Park Station.
