Brampton Request Stop 

i am aware of the blurry shots in this video. i am aware of the noisy windy too. the water was collecting at the bottom of the lens, hence SEVERAL blurry shots due to rain water. i think it adds to the ambience! so ... just go with it. okay? :-D

This is possibly the most British video I have ever seen?

And this is why you didn't do All the Stations in December.

I felt the guard said that "Goodbye" in a sort of "and may god have mercy" sort of way.

What a wonderful couple you two are :) I love this videos!

Fantastic. The drama of the "Blair Witch" moment when the phone rings... the split screen phonecall... the chase to catch the train. Who needs the cinema?!

Visiting obscure train stations of the United Kingdom is now something exotic and adventurous to me.

My local station, have spent many hours waiting on that platform! You didn't miss much not exploring any further afield

Am I becoming a Train Nerd as I am watching more and more about trains than I have most of my life - so much information and fun doing it.

Class 37’s and Class 68’s were brought in after an accident a couple of years ago between Class 170 and a tractor. They were never taken out because they were so popular. The Carton Colville transport museum has loads of buses and trams from all over the world. Worth a visit!

I wish I loved anything as much as Geoff Marshall unironically loves seldom-used or very remote railway stations

It looked so cold I had to stop halfway and go and make me a hot cup of tea to watch til the end!

Classic "that's what she said" at 5:00

Nice one Geoff! Back at the beginning of November (4th), me and some friends attempted to travel to all 59 stations (including request stops like Brampton!) on an Anglia Rover. AND COMPLETED IT!! Left Ipswich at 05:10, then went to Cambridge, Norwich, back to Cambridge, then to Ely, back to Norwich, then on to Great Yarmouth (via Reedham) and back via Acle, Sheringham, Lowestoft and Felixstowe; got back at roughly 23:30 absolutely nackered! And yes it was with inspiration from All The Stations that we did it! Search for 'All The Locations, Anglia Stations' on Facebook, click the group and that's what we did!

Thank you both very much! This has created a huge black hole for me and now I'm stuck watching train videos. I'm didn't even know I was into trains.

You 2 are so funny that you should do a comedy channel together full of bloopers!! :)

I can't stop smiling at these wonderful videos

You two are so much more entertaining than Portillo.

No answer at Brampton. Something fun about calling the middle of nowhere.

I actually live in the house opposite Oulton Broad South station. You can see my roof on the right hand side of the shots from the platform.

The long haired gaurd on last train is great had chat few years ago when train delayed by hour and ten minutes. Credit to Greater Anglia

It’s funny for someone from Toronto to see Brampton as this tiny place, because Brampton here is a huge commuter town with about 400,000 people in it. It’s our largest concentration of East Indian population, about a third of the population.

I thought this video was gonna be boring. BUT THEN HE MENTIONED THE GEOCACHE. Oh, boy lets go find some plastic container which is miles off its GPS location and has a watered down log book. BUT OH BOY THE FUN. :-)

For heaven's sake, Marshall. As a Cumbrian, I was quite excited to see you doing a video from Brampton. Alas, no. You're just toying with my heart, dammit. In protest, I shan't be watching this one. (Only joking! I could never miss the content you post!)

I'm on a train to work...watching a video about trains, lol

Whenever I arrived at Norwich (to go to the airport) I always pictured Alan Partridge there, advertising his biography. "All you commuters, with your computers!"

Good stuff..I feel cold and shivery just from watching that !

That Beccles footbridge seams to be the longest footbridge ever! Oh and next time I see a phone box, I'm going to ring it!

Well that was strangely comforting to watch. I've been to this station many times actually, my girlfriend uses to live just up the road. Wish I'd known about the phone booth trick then. The only other thing I could have recommended was to walk up the road a little bit and see the cows (not exactly thrilling, but you're already grasping at straws)

My Aunt and uncle moved to Oulton Broad in 1978 from London, they lived quite close to Oulton Broad North Station, but the first time I visited there, we arrived from Ipswich at the South station, on what is now the disused platform. Ipswich - Lowestoft was double-track throughout then, also one platform at Beecles was closed for many years. The passing loop there was reinstated after much lobbying. PS I've been to the Transport Museum at Carlton Colville several times, well worth a visit .

This is the best ever episode. It really warmth my heart.

The thrill of catching a train you thought you'd miss! I got a non-existing connection at Derby to Matlock, yesterday, got the 6.52 pm train (who left a couple of minutes late) from the train from York that arrived 6.54. Even if I didn't need to make it, it feels great if you can.

3:05 " This better be worth it Marshall" lol

I love geocaching too. Back in the mid 90s when I was living in London I got myself a underground map poster and tried picking up/buying tube tickets with each of the station names on them. The idea was I would stick them all over my poster. I was so sad next time went back to see the tickets were no longer a thing. Didn't get any where near as many as I wanted as I ended up moving to a location where I no longer had to take the tube to work.

I use to walk that trip between Oulton Broad North and Oulton Broad South before when I use to live in Lowestoft a few years ago.

You certainly picked a nice day for it!

I have been through Brampton more than I care to mention. It's a request stop but it does get a lot of commuter traffic, college kids and the occasional horse rider thanks to the pastures next to the station. Btw; Suffolk gets less rainfall than London (on average).

Great video! I'd love more videos in this new request stop series! Start with Pleasington near Preston. You can easily do that one in a daytrip from London and it's quite quaint!

It reminds me of summer holidays in Bognor

You two are adorable!

I like the new intro - 1 second without music where it just says Request Stops

Very Cute.... I live in Brampton, Ontario, Canada... :))

The phone box at Brampton no longer works :(

The first time greater Anglia has ever had a thumbs up...

A wonderful mad video of train travel. Strangely engrossing.

One of your all time classic videos - love it!

I went to Oulton Broad once. It rained, then, too.

Just re-watched this while at Brampton, which is sadly not (currently) a request stop. Thankfully it was less wet. Apart from that it’s about the same, though it seems to have recently had the lighting refurbished. I’ve been ticking off some stations on the line (apparently today is its 163rd birthday) while on holiday in the area, and was going to try the quick change at Beccles, but now I’ve seen this video I’m glad I didn’t!

You two have become my favourite folk on RU-vid. So entertaining.

All The Request Stops.

It really looked as you made the best of the weather and enjoyed yourselves.

Oh Oulton Broad South my closest station x Please come back to Brampton in sunshine and will show you delights of the village, will take us about five minutes as nothing really there ! I have often wondered where the station was as can't see it from main road going through village

SUPERB ENTERTAINMENT - pure English madness; this makes me so proud to be English. Thank you both. Next time you visit Doleham, let me know and you can come round for Tea.

I saw 'Brampton request stop' and thought it was Brampton, Cumbria which I believe is in itself a request stop. Though it is called Brampton Station it is actually two miles out and along some country roads away from Brampton itself and closer to the village of Milton which is only a fifth of the distance away. Brampton Station has quite a long platform on both sides but only a shelter on one side and a large shed on the other with an old wrought iron walk way bridge going over at one end. If you ever want to visit an interesting station, come to Wetheral station. It is in the small village of Wetheral just outside Carlisle to the east north east and as the train leaves the station heading east towards Newcastle, it goes straight onto a railway viaduct. If you get off the train on the north side you can walk along the walkway over the viaduct of cross the wrought iron walk way bridge to the south platform and exit the station and walk the steps to the base of the viaduct and watch and listen to the trains as they come over. Worth a little visit up north I should think.

This video is so awesome and you two lovely people are looking so cute together. Keep up the excellent work. Highly recommended viewing. ☺

I was doing a least used station in Finland on the same day.

Ah, the glamourous life of You Tube celebrities ....

As far as doing a series on vsiting all the heritage lines which would be a great idea as there is so much history involved as well as all the volounteer work (and would make excellent video material), it might also be an idea to do an "All the Summer Specials" series. That is going on all the Summer excursions like the "Cathedrals Express" for example. There is a rumour of the intent to restore the APT-P to enable it too to do Summer Specials in the future. Now that would be amazing if they were able to pull it off.

My favourite RU-vid video of the year.

My favourite and local line, love the East Suffolk Line. Great video :)

Loved this (as I do all your videos), but i personally love a wet rainy day. Keep these videos coming!

Imagine if someone set up an old fax machine to call that number every five minutes during the night? That would really be awful for the people who lived opposite. So don't do it people. Geoff. Tell them not to do it. Thank you.

This is about the most British day out I've ever seen.

My God lowesoft when it's sunny is one of the best places I've ever been

.....through the cold wind and rain..... - you are my heros 🥶

You two are wonderful. Happy new year.

Geoff I live very very near the transport museum. A true fact is the BBC recorded an opening sequence for Jonathan Creek episode 'No Trace Of Tracy' at Brampton station/level crossing.

10:10 That's like Winsford, where both Northbound and Southbound trains arrive at the same time, either xx:07 or xx:08, except at 1pm where Northbound is 13:07 and southbound is 13:10.

When it said they have 0 mins i was like gogogogogogogo

Best place to find a red phonebox. Next to the start/finish line at Snetterton Motor Racing Circuit.

The Google Maps for the station has the amazingly-named GODZILLATRON just by the station! goo.gl/maps/rN9QH645KrF2

Crazy kids. It does look completely silly. More hot tea!

I live in Brampton, ON, Canada. When i saw this I thought u came 2 🇨🇦😁

You two are bloody adorable. You're as ridiculous as I am, hence being single. "Do you fancy going to have a look at the Tees Transporter Bridge?" Why? "Because it's there" It's -4c and blowing a gale. "I hate you"

You bought tea at the Station and germans drinking coffee 😂

A class 158 dmu or its modern day replacement IS A PROPER TRAIN, they may not have the soul or character of older trains, but their still PROPER trains

I'm just watching you sitting in a train, whilst I'm sitting in a train. Trainseption !!!!!!!!!!

Is it weird that my heart was thumping when Geoff called the telephone box and one didn't know if Viki was going to pick up or not?

"this better be worth it, Marshall" quote of the day

when you were at beccles you were just round the corner from my house, i can't believe i missed you

You can bet that phone will have been ringing non-stop now. I wonder if anyone's answered yet?

Attention Please. Don’t turn captions at 8:13

You guys look like you had so much fun.

5:18 there's a perfect thumbnail right there .

Question, how do you get trains to stop at request stops if you're on the train? Edit: Follow up question, do you have to pay to call phone boxes?

Sprinting for a Sprinter

You should do Lakenheath, least used station in Suffolk!

Ahh yes my part of the world. Nice too see you here :)

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

is there not a third rain feeling the train ? this is very confusing to me ???

Looks like one of you had more fun than the other - and the other ones' fun was ironic fun. Maybe you could have knocked on one of the cottage doors and asked a random stranger for a cup of tea; they might recognise you from the telly.

Own up, who called the phonebox? ;)

What a wheeze. No, really. What a wheeze, Geoff! Methinks a few trips to the gym would help instead of faffing around on trains ;-) Another great video, well done guys

We needed Bob to turn up with umbrellas!

You two make me laugh so much - have a great 2018!

Having A MINI rave in that old phonebox with the EOL light in there.,

Interesting fact Jeff. My grandfather was the gatekeeper at Holton

Y'know, I feel like this is but one of many videos that led me to believe Geoff & JC would get along. 🤣

Spent many a summer on the Oulton Broads. great vid!!

Do all the stops between Norwich and Cambridge please Edit: The Breakland line including Spooner Row and Eccles Road and Harling Roaf
