I absolutely agree with the total electrification of our railways. I leave my electric car alone when I’m away and use trains and buses as everyday transport on holiday.
U gonna try hydrogen next
Don’t you mean your battery car
That was a great Rail round up, be nice to see Virgin Trains back on the West Coast Main Line.
Cheers buddy 👍
And what a glorious machine Sir Nigel Gresley is!! I must go to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and ride behind her!!
Phil and Simon are at Preston station
Im mostly excited to see the new Tyne and Wear Metro trains starting to daytime test getting ready for service later this year.
Thank you for featuring my clips Gordon. I think Phil and Simon were at Carlisle.
Brilliant show Gordon and Thank you for showing my clip of Sir Nigel Gresley.
Phil and Simon are at Preston. 🙂👍
Well, that's some good news! Awesome video
19th May 2024 - Virgin Trains targets West Coast in return to rail
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham called for Avanti to be stripped of the contract
''I cannot accept thiis railways line being left in a perennial state of chaos''
I hope they return!!!
Very good - I liked the Blue A4 Clip!!! 😉🚂🚂🚂
I like the way Virgin have pointed out how complicated the tickets are pretty rich as it was largely Sir Richard Branson that made them so complicated when he ran Cross Country,West Coast and later East Coast.He shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a railway.
I am so surprised that Virgin Trains is coming back. And I think it’s good for Southeastern to start thinking about replacing the Class 465 and Class 466 with brand new trains.
Under a hopefully Labour government, I would love to see Virgin Trains return not only to the running of the West Coast mainline but also the services of XC that's Cross Country for those who weren't perhaps sure what I was meaning.
Cross Country operating many services between Aberdeen and the South Coast of England to places like Penzance, Plymouth, Bournemouth, Southampton and Reading but including cities such as Exeter, Bristol, Bath, Oxford, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Derby, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Carlisle, Lancaster and Preston.
Hey Gordon great content as always. I agree Grand Central are fantastic. Kings Cross to Doncaster in 1 hour 20 odd minutes .. Non Stop that is
It’s a bobby dazzler of a service.
Lol yeah.was chuckling and wondered. Where my clip was
All is well - did you catch the spooky 👻?
@@railroundup yes I guess Part2 is over in the workshop
In my opinion, it's windows what people want on the trains, not air conditioning, I remember being on a few 195's during summer with broken air conditioning, not a comfortable ride at all! Windows are far more reliable. I miss slam door trains like the 101's, 108's etc, those were nice and cool during summer because of their windows.
Oh, and the mystery station (without Phil and Simon)...my guess is quite wild...is is Poulton-le-Fylde (poet and don't know it)?
Very close. Starts with P though
The mystery location? My guess is PRE.
Interesting proposal by Southeastern to replace some of their fleet with battery electric trains
Just a wild guess, Phil and Simon were at Glasgow Central
Great round up as usual 👏👏👏👍
Glad you enjoyed it buddy 👍
Martin Clark's Photo is of Poulton-le Fylde
So what rolling stock is Virgin 2.0 going to run? It's not like Avanti's going to give their 390s back to Virgin haha.
Southeastern railway had the command off. so no one can command on the video why that's??
I agree they where good
I believe there were landfalls as well!! Very dangerous!!
Carlisle
Why was the 37 hauling an electric multiple unit?
Why don’t virgin trains or proper mainline services (under a different provider) have services from Southport to capital and goodness knows what. I heard many years ago (before my time) , a train went from Southport to London via bootle junction to join Line from lime street and the rest was done
It has to be Preston !
Open Access? Sir Keir Starmer will have renationalised everything by then, won't he?
By the way. It’s Ely not Eli. The cathedral city of Eelee. That’s how you say it. You kept saying Eli as in a northern blokes name
Every day is a school day 😆
15:00 the guy with the blue bag was the only one to record properly smh
Huddersfield?
E-lee, not E-lie
When are vergin trains returning
Oooh! You will upset the locals mispronouncing Ely.
Say it like "E - lee" and they might not come to your town as a huge angry mob carrying pitchforks and lit torches... 😁😃🤭
I’ll be prepared for anything. We beat Yorkshire once before 😆
I welcome Virgin Trains back into the railway scene 😊.
What happens when labour takes our tho
Do we really need trains run by a blinking airline?
Different companies
