The Branch Line To Felixstowe - Westerfield, Derby Road & Trimley 

this looks like a lovely line to ride & im loving the retro signs at Trimley & Felixstowe beach looks amazing & awesome shots of the freight trains at Derby Road brilliant vlog

Great video as always and your dedication to your art is above and beyond considering how cold it was and was pleased you made it to Felixstowe to conclude your video❤

Across the level crossing there is a bit of footpath that gives you a nearly floor level sight of trains going through.

Brilliant video Sarah. Shame about the cancellation at Trimley but great to see that the onwards travel information did really help.

Brilliant video Sarah, it does look very cold in this one. I quite like the fact theres info for day rangers and all that at Trimley, shame about the cancellation meaning you had to get the bus to Felixstowe though but it's a really good thing theres onward travel posters at stations letting you know about the alternative options. :)

Excellent video as usual, nice Catches of those freight trains 😊👍

Thank you so much for braving the cold 🥶to bring us this video. It’s lovely to see that these (relatively) small,rural stations have retained a little character and individuality while becoming reasonably modern and well equipped. I do rather like those wooden benches. Also, FREIGHT 🥳

Another fantastic video. Thank you for all your videos through out 2023 looking forward to next year. Wishing you a very happy Christmas a very happy new year

love your hat

very enjoyable video, PS love the hat. 😊

27:45 Follow that bus! No I'm kidding haha But a line that I have had my eyes on for a very long time is the Felixstowe branch because the passenger traffic isn't what is going to make up the video, it is going to be the freight traffic in and out of Felixstowe and it's many yards

I really like those Class 755 Greater Anglia trains! I haven't been to Suffolk or Essex for a very long time when there were Class 90 loco hauled on the main. Absolutely fascinating about the Polish Armed trains - that's an amazing fact! Really enjoyed this - I must try and catch up with some of your other videos. I wish your lovely channel every success! Take care, Paul

Great video and well researched. I think that line could do with being double track and electrified for freight going to the Freightliner terminals

Love this line, so much freight. And Trimley is lovely, just wish they would invest in the old building.

Well done Sarah for braving the cold, at least it wasn't windy this time. Happy Xmas!

Great video! I ticked off the stations on that line as part of a trip to Homebase in Felixstowe as it was the nearest branch with a certain kind of coat hook!! Those ‘Fragile roof: no admittance’ signs are merely telling you not to climb on the roof! I’ve seen quite a few of them in recent months. Derby Road: I thought it odd that the footbridge was left in place and unused. Trimley: Yeah, the ‘thin’ level crossing sign also exists at Canterbury West, where there isn’t enough width for a normal one. Look forward to your next video.

Great video!

As always another great trail and detailed report, happy new year 🎉

Another great video, nice to see Westerfield featured. Thank you.

Great video thanks felt sorry for you on such a cold day

Excellent. Wonderful drab stations .boy they sure need a lot of tlc .not in the future but now x

Was there anthing of use in Trimley? Or just the trains and buses to escape the place?

You poor girl, you're in Ipswich. Be careful nobody tries to steal your camera when you're vlogging.

The sign on the shelter means 'no climbing on the roof'.

I do like the Greater Anglia Class 745 and Class 755 and I have been on them lots of times. As well the Class 720. Shame about Trimley railway building that does need repairs. Unless it has already been repaired or rebuilt. I personally haven’t been to Derby Road and Trimley stations but I have been to Felixstowe once.

There was another armoured train in Kent on the 15 INCH Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway patrolling the east kent coast. It even claimed a "kill", as a German fighter crashed trying to shoot up the train!

Thanks for the video! Did you do a tour of Felixstowe station? Original platform is split in two and divided by the Homebase/Co-op car park (with the Co-op and other small shops in the old station building).

It's a rare week I don't have to stop at the Westerfield level crossing when out cycling 😊

My line, I live very near the dock spur

What was the reason for the "purchase" of the class 755 vs other trains running on the network?

The station looks like it as had a fire 🔥

The tracks at the start were looking rather frosty, was it that cold that day?

Interesting.

Nice hat

The original Felizstowe station is now a shopping.xentre with the external architecture preserved including canopies. The current Felixstowe station is simply a few yards further down on Both well worth a visit.
