Hey everyone! My name is Dan and I have been a rail enthusiast since I was a very young child. I try to upload every week, but sometimes this may not be possible.
Trains at Tilburg Reeshof | 6th November 2024
A selection of loco-hauled passenger and freight services passing Tilburg Reeshof station (The Netherlands) on a cold November day. This day was chosen to visit as the route via Emmerich which leads into The Betuweroute (the freight-only main line from Germany straight to the ports at Rotterdam) was closed for engineering works all month, so freight had to divert via this line (The Brabantroute). DB Cargo, BLS Cargo, SBB Cargo, Rail Force One, Medway, RTB Cargo & of course Nederlandse Spoorwegen services can all be seen passing.
I was joined by @SouthCoastTrainspotter on his first ever trip to mainland Europe!
I hope you enjoy the video and feel free to comment down below!

Railtours & Freight at Preston & Lancaster stations | 10th August 2024

A very action-packed day in the north west for LSL's North West Wanderer railtour, which featured 45118 "The Royal Artilleryman", 50050 "Fearless", 40013 "Andania", 37409 "Loch Awe", 37521, 20132 & 20118 "Saltburn-by-the-Sea" all hauling the train throughout the day. Unfortunately I couldn't see all the legs as it was running until late and I had to get home. The Northern belle with 34067 "Tang...
West Midlands Freight | 17th May 2024

The day before I went to The Severn Valley Railway's spring diesel gala I spent the day around Birmingham on a West Midlands Daytripper ticket chasing some freight about. I've included details of each working in the video. I had planned to release this video months ago but I discovered that in the 4 videos I filmed before this I had major audio issues, worse than ever before, making most of it ...

Yet another great diesel gala put on by the K&WVR last weekend. This is the first gala in a while which hasn't featured home fleet 20031, which is out of action of a large overhaul at the moment, but this was made up by 5 visiting locos in operation. These were 37250 from the Wensleydale Railway (sporting a very recently applied coat of EWS), Jason Hall's 50008 "Thunderer", Paul Spracklen's 500...

The first diesel gala in many years was held at the NYMR between the 14th and 16th June 2024, and hopefully it'll set the trend for it to become a yearly occasion on the line's event calendar! This video is mostly filmed around Goathland but there also some clips from Levisham. Home fleet locos in operation were Class 25 D7628 "Sybilla", 31466, 37264 (in it's new BR Blue colours) & 47077 "North...

My first video from back in the UK in a while! The day before I went to the Swanage Railway Diesel Gala, I went to Eastleigh for the day and had a decent time with quite a few freight services passing, naturally most being Intermodals with it being located on the main freight artery from Southampton Docks, though unfortunately on the day I went both the Mountfield gypsum and Cowley Mini car tra...
Trains at Tergnier Yard & Works | 25th March 2024

A few hours spent at Tergnier Yard in northern France, mostly featuring shunting moves around the yard but also in the carriage and wagon works next to it, all viewed from a really long footbridge which crosses the entire thing. I was inspired to come here by videos on the @cyriltrains02 channel taken here and at nearby Mennessis station which I've been watching a lot, go check them out! I hope...
Sunday Loco Hauled trains in the South of Paris | 24th March 2024
มุมมอง 1748 หลายเดือนก่อน
I had a Sunday to kill in Paris so in the afternoon I ventured out to the south of the city, on the lines out of Austerlitz and Gare du Lyon/Bercy, to catch a couple of loco hauled trains at a few locations. It's great to see loco haulage still being used in this day and age, however most of the long distance services, especially from the northern-facing termini, are now operated with new EMUs ...
Trains at Narbonne | 22nd March 2024

My 2nd day in the south of France was spent at Narbonne station. For most of the day whilst I was there 60052 was shunting in the yard next to the station (and over the old hump at the end of the yard) which kept me busy filming! A fair few passing freights feature as well as the Bordeaux to Marseille loco hauled Intercities, two Spanish Renfe 'AVE' sets and former UK-based 66045 which was nice...

Somewhere I've wanted to visit for a while now, Miramas is a well-known Freight hotspot in the south of France along the Mediterranean coast between Avignon and Marseille. This video covers almost an entire day spent here with a wide range of loco types to be seen, including an ex-EWS Class 66, Y8000, 7200, 22200, 26000, 27000, 36300, 37000, 69000 & 75000 types as well as others on a range of d...
Trains at Basel Badischer | 19th March 2024

A few hours in the afternoon spent at Basel Bad Bf (Badischer) on the Swiss-German border in Basel. A fair few freights featured but not as many as I'd hoped, still I enjoyed my time there though, the old Re 420s and 620 (Re 4/4 and 6/6) were nice to see though. I was inspired to come here (and Pratteln, my previous video) by videos on @danielwelham6322's channel which are awesome, you should d...

An amazing 4 and a half hours at Pratteln on the outskirts of Basel, Switzerland, which is known for being one of the best places to go for freight in the country and after going I can certainly see why! I've included some passenger workings but the majority of this video is just sold non-stop freight, including the Rollpin Swiss 'rolling highway' lorry trains from Italy which takes many trucks...

The first video from my first trip of 2024! I stayed in Strasbourg for a few nights and as soon as I arrived from Paris there was tons of action to be seen. It's like taking a French railway time-warp with a load of local passenger trains still using loco haulage, including the last place in the country BB 67400 diesel locos can be seen on TER services, with only three locos remaining allocated...

To start off the new year I thought I'd share some of my unused footage from last year, and I also plan to do a video with all my best photos from last year as well. Anyway I used most of my footage from abroad but there was some clips that didn't really fit into the other videos which are featured here, including a ride on an AM70 on the Spa-Aachen service which no longer runs as of the end of...

Firstly, apologies for the poor audio quality in the first clip, I've turned the volume down a bit so it's not too annoying. Whilst I have been going out on trips with friends recently and taking photos, I've not been out to film anything for a while now because of a lack of motivation and just being busy, but that changed on Friday morning as I went out to see two more of the new Stadler Class...

Great video. I subscribed
It's a disgrace MK3 carriages have been scrapped
Betuweroute is shut for 80 weeks in total 60 weeks of single line working means 65 trains a day on the brabantroute and once the full closure is in place for 20 weeks 135 trains per day apparently
Fair enough. Glad to see you have been out again recently. Nice video.
Sorry about the lack of videos recently, I've just really been lacking any motivation to go out and film things recently, plus been super busy with work!
7:27 that’s where I used to live but I live in Ashfield 😢
What a place to start Dan. Best place in France for loco hauled passenger variety. Lots of new units being built to replace a lot of the older stock unfortunately. Make the most of it.
Aye I was lucky to get the two 67/5s! Hearing them diagrams replaced by units from this month
Probably the best place in France for freight. The 2 channels you mentioned are two of my favourites as well. Fret Spotting and Trains_Spotteur_69 are great as well for Southern France. Absolute superb video though Dan. Very enjoyable 👏🏻
Hi Dan, Blake recommended your channel. Absolute superb footage at Tergnier. I have a real soft spot for France after spending many holidays there when I was younger spotting trains. Have subbed to your channel as your content looks great 👍🏻 all the best. Ben
Cheers Ben, yeah was great (bit cold though!)
Superbe vidéo
I was there on the 15th June & really enjoyed the whole day, It was a shame there couldn't be a Deltic there, but hopefully next time!
Cracking footage!
Cheers!
Brilliant video Dan. Get well soon. PS Did you miss all action in York at the weekend?
Cheers, and yeah got all that, my op was the day after (last Monday) but had to prepare stuff the week before as well
Nice video
That 56 sounds like its going to blow!
Awesome, truly awesome Dan. Some epic freight variety you got in the West Midlands :-)
Cracking video Dan and good to see a BR L/M maroon stanshion sign still there
Lovely shots. Especially of the TGV
Wielang warst du hier?
Always a good vidoe from Belgium
Lovely video
Wonderful video
What a great variety of locos
Cracking video Dan some good filming there bud' the western sounds on form as usual ,and cracking film of the Dipper !
How long did you stand there?
About 8 hours
Wonderful scenes from Aachen here Dan
HRT used to run a 125 special to coincide with this event back in the last century.
Cracking video Dan good filming and good locations , get out for it !!!
A very enjoyable video!
Good to see you back home Dan.
That was quite the diesel gala, the first since 2016 at the NYMR. Was there as well worked from Pickering then northwards towards Grosmont. Superb footage, full enjoyable to watch :-)
Thanks Ricky :)
I get the distinct impression that these missions are not actually impossible after all... Excellent video by the way..
Great freight action and workings Dan 👍👍
Another great video of a place I've never heard of or been to, but worth checking out in the future. Does the bridge require steps to see over? cheers Dan.
You struck lucky filming those 5 locos in convoy.
Superb video. Have a great weekend. 😀
Hi Dan, Have you moved? If you have you are missing the Queen Street Bridge being demolished!
Nope I still live in York! Will certainly be different driving along there now
hello where was that class 66 on the intro going to?
Hi Dan. How did you get on in Switzerland, price wise I'm thinking about, food, hotel etc. I've heard it's a touch on the pricey side.
I didn't stay in Switzerland so I can't comment on hotel prices (I stayed in Strasbourg when I filmed in Basel because it was cheap and a good excuse to get loco hauled trains in for haulage on TER200), food was pretty pricey whilst I was there though but that was mostly because I didn't have any francs on me and had to use euros and in some shops things cost more because of it
Great video Dan some old beasts there liked the jocko type
Great video...thanks...do a lot of cargo ( freight) trains go through Bad Bentheim?
What a fantastic video of last year diesel gala at svr keep up the awesome work
Hi nice video, how do you get information on certain freight trains and special trains running there?, thanks
Cheers, for passenger trains in Belgium specifically I use Haltelink Tracker which gives live allocations of locos and carriages, but with freight it's very much a turn up and wait job. I was with some Dutch friends who get gen on interesting moves as well; we went for the Class 21s and weren't expecting much freight hence why we weren't really on the right platform for them.
@@317DanThank you very much!
My favourite train class 317 is the best train in the entire universe and the class 317 was my first ever train ride and th drivers were super nice
great video!
May 15th 2021 was also the last day for Intercity 125s in and out of London which was operated by EMR
Good video Dan that shunter standing between the freight as it buffered up was pushing his luck H&S over here would have a dikkie fit lol
Hi Dan. I'm hoping to head to Belgium in February and base myself in Antwerp like you did. Which stations would you recommend I go to for the most action? thanks
4:34 That's super good view
Excellent video. Happy New Year. 😀
