This is the last video from 2023! All 319s and 507s shown in this video have since made their last journeys.. Check Out the list in the description. Thanks for Watching! 😃
Absolutely, I think it’s criminal to be scrapping electric trains, especially since the Bolton to Wigan Electrification is expected to be completed this year and how overall we should really be migrating to electric. Most media outlets read that the 331s are replacing them but the missing detail is that overall capacity has reduced with them gone.
@@StarlifeStudios there are a handful more class 323s that could be transferred from west midlands - and of course, all the mothballed 769s from GWR and TfW (I can't see porterbrook admitting defeat on that front and cutting them)
@@StarlifeStudiosI remember that when me and my family are on that train. When we departed from Stockport a Class 158 departed at the same time and we had a race until we stopped at Heaton Chapel
Great Video, Sir!✨I remember visiting Liverpool Lime Street, last year autumn! A great day and experience it was, as that was my first InterCity trip, therefore making it very much memorable! I’ll be honest, it was so different to London! I personally felt the people were much more cheerful and happier, especially staff! :) Although, it did take a minute to understand what they would say as their accent was a little hard for me to understand at first, especially as a Londoner!😅
Amazing video Starlife!! You really got some awesome variety here and I like that you included the low level platforms, not many videos here include that!! awesome to see 507s and 319s in action before their retirement which shouldnt really be happening as electric is spreading!!
Thanks! Merseyrail currently has some variety so its nice to see both types of units in use on the same lines. The platforms are quite narrow so its actually rather difficult to avoid filming people. The 319s still had some life and they should have stayed until at least the WMR 323s replaced them. Glad you enjoyed.😄
Fantastic Video, a very nice variety of stock. Shame that the 319s and 507s are going Also, do you have any recommendations for wcml stations south of Rugby? Bushey doesn't seem to have a fence but a lot of stations seem to have a fence making filming the fast stuff difficult.
The 507s were always destined be replaced, they are some of the oldest rolling stock in use today. So recommendations, pretty much all south of Rugby have barriers with the exceptions of Milton Keynes, Watford Junction and Bushey. There are some stations on London Underground line South Kenton which get a pretty good view of the west coast but I’ve never been myself. I recommend Watford Junction, the staff are awesome too. Hope this helps! 😃👍🏻
@@StarlifeStudios After all,class 319 is too old.compared with china,A lot of classic locomotive constructed in 1995-2000(such as DF4B,SS6,SS7,SS8),was scraped recently,they are all younger than class 319 and a lot of classic EMU.

Dunno why they’re scrapping electric trains in favour of diesels, it’s the exact opposite of what they’re saying by reducing emissions

You can still technically see them as the Class 769
Great video.
Cool video!
Amazing Video Ross!
You Uploaded My Dad’s Favourite Station!
I can definitely see why! Lots of new trains but some oldies in there too! 🙂
Amazing video! 👍
Nice!
The class 777s are brilliant units but I can’t get enough of the old units
Nice video. Good seeing the 319s before they went. 😥

I just love how you get to go to all of these different kind of stations far and was de
For my own sanity and yours - I have to vary my stations. If all I filmed was West Coast and London, you wouldn’t tune in every Sunday! 😃

Damn the way that 777 accelerated, was almost like a boeing 777
Been to Liverpool lime station last year…it brings me back my memories
Ik how to get to London without avanti, Go to Liverpool lime street on a northern rail, and then get a London northwestern to London, It Cost’s Less.
I’m Here 😁
Hello Starlife, could you do trains at Liverpool Central?
Nice video is your next train spotting Location going to be edge hill
Dude those 777 units on merseyrail are rapid 😮
Those are some of the clearest PA speakers I have ever heard
It is, literally, above me 😂 It got rather annoying after a while!

@StarlifeStudios thanks for the suggestions mate 👍
The 319s will be sadly missed by the rest of the rail enthusiasts
The home of the Beetles, wonderful Liverpool Lime Street. No yellow submarine this time round :-)
There are some Yellow 507s though 😂 Thanks!
15:53 off to my local station
What camera do you use?
Can you go to Eastleigh please
RIP Class 508 will be missed
The nse trade mark😥
Hey what camera lens do you use for train spotting? Thanks.
12:14 32 minutes late 😮
Station announcement overkill!
Nice video though
19:11 Oh god my least favourite commuter train 🤮
I'm not riding that train from Birmingham New Street to Liverpool Lime Street
What camera and tripod do you use to film this
I use a Panasonic HC VX1 with no tripod or stability accessories. Thanks for watching.
@@StarlifeStudios is it the hcvxf1 or just the hcvx1
I meant far and wide
Pls do Electric trains at speed

Do we have class 319 alive?class 319 is an classic EMU.
A few 319s still exist but none are used in passenger service. Some do survive as 769s but these are clearly not the same. Thanks for watching!

@@StarlifeStudiosI wish the 319s were still in service
