Train Enthusiast/Rail Vlogger from the Midlands posting Railway related content on RU-vid
I've been passionate with Railways all my life ever since I was a child and set the RU-vid account to share the footage that I've filmed but then started vlogging which I have been doing that for 10 years!
The waiting furniture is all about being uncomfortable for sleeping. You couldn’t lie on those bevelled long seats, the three chairs in a row have arms to stop sleeping and all the shelters have gaps at the bottom to cause windchill if a person tries to sleep.
My apologies to say that class 150 trains 🚆 🚊 🚂 were last with LM - London Midland is dated back in November 2011, not November 2007. I feel like 👍 ❤️ calling myself a failure 😞 😣 😨. Never 👎 mind. Silly 😛 🤪 😜 me. DMU - Diesel ⛽️ Multiple Unit trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 are likely to stay in GB 🇬🇧 - Great Britain 🇬🇧 is England 🏴 , Wales 🏴 and Scotland 🏴 until around perhaps 🤔 the deadline date 📅 📆 is late ⏰ 2040 at the latest is the date 📅 📆 Monday 31st December 2040 (New 🆕 Year’s Eve) 🎉 🎈 🥳 🧨 🎆 🎇 💥 ❗️ ‼️ . 👍
Bye 🙋♂️ 👋 ✋ both of the 3 car class 150001 and the 2 car class 150106 on its final day with LM - London Midland in November 2007. They went to the southwest of England 🏴 that most of others were a 3 car class 150002 and the 2 car class 150/101/102/104/122/124-126 that stayed in the southwest of England 🏴 until December 2018 at the latest and went to the north of England 🏴 with class 150001/106. Class 150202/216 went to the southwest of England 🏴 and has been in the area for around 12 years since perhaps 🤔 late ⏰ 2011 to replace the crappy 💩 7 x 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚆 🚊 🚂 are 142001/009/029/030/063/064/068 were subleased from NT - Northern to FGW - First Great Western from late ⏰ 2007 until late ⏰ 2011 were on a long term loan 💵 💸. The short term loan 💵 💸 crappy 💩 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 were from NT - Northern to FGW - First Great Western happened from December 2007 until December 2008 were a short term loan 💵 💸 are class 142004/028/062/067/070. It was all phased out. Class 150 trains 🚆 🚊 🚂 are much better than the class 140-144 pacer trains 🚊 🚆 🚂 however are in the middle and might not be as good 👍 as the class 158 and 159 trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 because class 150 trains 🚊 🚆 🚂 perhaps 🤔 could feel cold 🥶 inside the train 🚂 🚆 🚊. Most of the crappy 💩 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚊 🚆 🚂 has previously been scrapped at the scrapyard. Good 👍. It serves the class 142 pacer trains 🚆 🚊 🚂 right for being scrapped at the scrapyard. Middle finger 🖕 to the crappy 💩 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 that are already scrapped at the scrapyard. At present 💝 in August 2024, it’s called GWR - Great Western Railway 🚃 since September 2015 is ten 🔟 previous years ago next September in 2025. I honestly like 👍 ❤️ the 2 and 3 car class 150 trains 🚂 🚆 🚊 because they are quite comfortable. Now in August 2024, it’s called LNWR - London Northwestern Railway 🚃 WMR - West Midlands Railway 🚃 since around November 2017 for almost 😅 7 years this November. In the present 💝 days, there are 3 x 2 car class 150/1 are with LNWR - London Northwestern Railway 🚃 are class 150137/139/141 that were cascaded from NT - Northern in July 2023. Class 150 trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 has bins 🗑️ 🚮 provided, no smoking 🚭 accommodation, comfortable seats 💺, toilet 🚻 🚾 🚽 in the DMSL - Driving Motor Standard Lavatory 🚻 🚾 🚽 , open windows 🪟, automatic operating doors 🚪, luggage 🧳 rack, second generation DMU - Diesel ⛽️ Multiple Unit trains 🚊 🚆 🚂 , standard class accommodation only and are used for provincial services in the southwest, northern, West Midlands in England 🏴 and finally Wales 🏴. LNWR - London Northwestern Railway 🚃 runs its services everyday and public holidays except Christmas 🎄🎅 🧑🎄 🤶 Day and Boxing 🥊 Day. 👍
It's great to see you visiting my old commuting route from the 1980s and most of the stations have changed little since those days. But it's a tad worrying that you seem to be the only person travelling. These services could be ripe for cuts!
Nice to see so many trains on the West Coast Main Line with the Class 805 Evero Bi-mode in service and the Class 807 Evero electric to enter service next year.
I think that ScotRail should hold on to the Class 318 and Class 320 for little bit longer despite they too are due to be replaced by new trains in the next few years. And to keep the Class 334 Junipers.
So what did you miss... when you depart Partick Station on the Underground you immediately pass through the widened section of the tunnel that marks the site of Merkland St station on the way under the river to Govan - also immediately you leave Partick Station on the way to Hyndland you pass the platforms of the original Partick Hill station, and also at Hyndland Station you are very close to the site of the original Hyndland Station, which was a terminus with trains to Edinburgh and which later became an EMU depot and was situated on Hyndland Road. There are many interesting abandoned station sites in the Glasgow area, which of course was noted for its locomotive building amongst other things. By the way, there's an abandoned station at Celtic Park too (just to be balanced, Glasgow is that sorta Toon)
This is the 2 car class 142004 is now at the Telford Steam Railway 🚃 is the train 🚆 🚊 🚂 that never 👎 dies has originally been in the north of England 🏴 known as BR - British 🇬🇧 Rail.

There are 96 x 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 are 142001-096 and many have previously been scrapped at the scrapyard. Good 👍. It serves the crappy 💩 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 right for being scrapped at the scrapyard. Middle finger 🖕 to the class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆. Most class 142 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 are used for preserved railways 🚆 🚃 in England 🏴. All class 140 - 144 pacer trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 have open windows 🪟, automatic operating doors 🚪, luggage 🧳 rack, bins 🗑️ 🚮 , no smoking 🚭 accommodation is because it’s prohibited 🚫 on all trains 🚊 🚆 🚂 , buses 🚍 🚌 🚎, taxis 🚕 🚖 , railway 🚃 stations 🚉 , enclosed public places and inside the buildings around the world 🗺️ 🌍 🌎 🌏 , has a toilet 🚻 🚾 🚽 in the DMSL - Driving Motor Standard Lavatory 🚻 🚾 🚽 , a ladder 🪜 in the DMSL and has gangway within unit. The pacer trains 🚆 🚊 🚂 aren’t used for public transport anymore. 👍
Across the road from Bridgeton is the old Bridgeton Cross station, from where you can follow an abandoned line towards High Street. Dalmarnock was refurbished in 2014 for the Commonwealth Games. I wrote about it on my blog at the time. Coatbridge Central is the closest station to Summerlee museum (which you must visit if you haven't), and is a great place for filming freight and charter trains.
I did a similar circular journey to Rugeley Town from Coleshill Parkway via Nuneaton and Rugeley Trent Valley outbound and back via Walsall and Birmingham New St. I did ask in the woman in the booking kiosk if it was permitted before leaving. I had family in Rugeley at the time so the journey did have a purpose!
This was done back in June, I had a Central Scotland Rover as it was the same ticket I used for the opening day of the Leven line which was filmed the day before this one
Awesome vid and great to see some of the more obscure stations in Greater Glasgow. Also don't mind me laughing at how you pronounce Airbles and Whifflet 😂
At Bridgeton there are unused platforms under London Road www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Bridgeton,+Glasgow/@55.8473975,-4.2255627,165a,35y,39.52t/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x48884151ccf2f76d:0x4328cac101bef9f8!8m2!3d55.850178!4d-4.2267041!16zL20vMDRuMGRq?entry=ttu
I've used Partick before, about eight years ago when my sister was staying in Dumbarton Road. I haven't been to that many new stations recently, just been to Motherwell and changed trains at Bellshill to get back to Edinburgh.
Thanks Reuben, I notice nearly the same issue on Tuesday when at Widdrington and I think it happens when the memory card is nearly full when you have less than a hour left on the Micro SD Card.
im loving all the stations in this vlog & they al look really nice stations & def agree about the 385s they are very nice traines as ive ridden a load when i visited Scotland back in May brilliant vlog
