Many more units have been added since I was last there 14th October 2021. With the strikes back in the news again, many more units may be added. The general public are still not retuning to public transport for various reasons, but certainly one will be the ongoing strikes. Do love the drone videos.

What an interesting mix of stock. Surprised at the 221 there, it must be either 221142 or 221143, due to go to Grand Central for driver training. The 730s should be entering traffic soon. Great Northern has a tender out for 21-30 EMUs starting 2024, it's likely the 379s will be bid for that. The 321s I don't see having much future use, unless Scotrail needs some emergency capacity increase due to stalled BEMU acquisition...
@Adelante077 The GWR tender was won by 30 of the existing Porterbrook 387 fleet, that's why 3 went to Great Northern. It was essentially a market exercise to get a better price on the fleet.
Superb video great camerawork and I cannot believe all that money was spent on the 321's and now they are withdrawn. Speaking as a once regular user of the 321's the updated/refurb ones where terrible. In the evenings they where so bright. I used to prefer the ex West Yorkshire 321/9's comfier seating and less brighter.
How Have You Got The South Eastern Class 465 On Transport Freve 2 When I Can't Ever Download It From Transport Freve Workshop So I Can Use Them Because That Is Not Ever On Transport Freve 2 Workshop 2 Download It So I Don't Know How You Got That On Transport Freve 2
It’s a shame that the 379’s aren’t duel voltage as Southeastern are looking for replacement units for their 465 units & although there isn’t enough of them to replace the whole fleet, but at least it’ll be a start.
Great video. I wonder who owns all the ex-drs locos on the back line, are they HNRC or LSL now? Interesting there is a smashed up rake of maroon mk2d/e/f
The Class 379 Electrostars aren’t going to be scrapped but I think that these units should go to ScotRail to replace the Class 318, Class 320 and Class 334. Or to replace the Class 318 and Class 320.
Why ?? like i said before in other video's if their not needed anymore get rid scrap em , watching your video's just shows the problem of unwanted stock.... great vid though as always🙂🙂
its not that some of these trains like the class 379 are really good and comfortable trains then the company decided that the leasing was to much and ended up replacing the 379s for cheap plastic bad quality trains, instead of scrapping 5 year old trains with so much more life with them u can only hope they find another operator
Well, you wouldn't want the TOC's to have longer trains at their expense so there would be no overcrowding now, would you? Far better to have these rotting away in sidings!

That is an amazing sight, I hope a lot of those older units and locos get reused.
Great video,
Excellent video as usual 👍
Brilliant video well done great camera work as usual as well bye for now Philip
Wow

Do you read the daily mail or express ?
Trains are pretty rammed from my experience, try travelling at weekends

I wondered where 47843/47847 were and there they are tucked along the back line , most probably awaiting their fate by the looks of them.

Where was it
Worksop Up Sidings..
Does anyone know what happining to those Class 20's 47's & 37's...Sad to see them rot
Whats a voyager doing there?
There were two stored there but one was towed elsewhere pending developments.
off lease from Avanti. Awaiting a TOC to take them. I believe XC aren't able to take them on
@@FBUK300 it’s grand central.
Great video. I wonder who owns all the ex-drs locos on the back line, are they HNRC or LSL now? Interesting there is a smashed up rake of maroon mk2d/e/f
All this, and loco's that were built in the early 60's are bringing them to locations like this all over the country.
Seems madness.
It's so sad 😢 to see all those trains sitting there not out on the track
Criminal waste of time building the Class 379 units if they're sitting there after barely a decade of service.

That would be cool if scotrail did get them as its perfect for up there
Indeed. Since the Class 379s are not that old and were built between 2010-2011.
@@Andrewjg_89 so there like 13 years old
@@NotDavidTrains Well yes they are 13 years old.
The class 379s Will return soon
What a waste of 4 good 37 and a couple of 47,20s could be put to good use.
Been on many many of them 379s I counted around 20-21 of them.
Why are they even there? There's a need for them to be used on several lines including the likes of Southern.......
379's are AC overhead only, the Southern network is DC third rail.
All the 379s are there
Shame some of these will be taking a journey to the cutters’ torch.. shame we can’t preserve them.
Me to and it outrageous to see units can’t be preserved and being, well, you know.
If we had more electrification up north we'd gladly take these. 4 car or 8 car local services with less maintenance...
Shame to see all those units in storage, especially the 379s
Absolutely - Still plenty of life left in them yet.
Not enough stock in vid 😮😂
Surprised to see a Voyagers there???
It’s in warm storage , it went of lease for avanti
It will be going to Grand Central for driver training
I think XC should get them to increase capacity!
@@danielsellers8707 For these 2 that's not an option, Grand Central have already leased them

Scrapping/storing 5-10 year old rolling stock which have a design life of 30 years, been doing that since the 1960s. Good job, Brits
Then they make an excuse, there’s not enough rolling stock
Well, you wouldn't want the TOC's to have longer trains at their expense so there would be no overcrowding now, would you? Far better to have these rotting away in sidings!
So that's were some of the new Westmidland trains are, a disgrace.
Storage, getting ready for service entry. Driver training and mileage testing must be completed first before they put the class in service
It’s a job to understand 🥲🥲
