🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
one of my local stations i use this station to get to and from college, i normally get a choice of desiro or 455 to go home on, lovely catch of the 701 being delivered! and some lovely motor sounds from the sprinters
Another busy day on the SWML and I love it that way
Love this video! Love Southwestern Railways
I’m a Londoner! And I remember the slam door trains they had on this route! Look how far we’ve come.. Love it.. Thank you 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Hey Duaine I’m glad you caught this one then! I’m not a Londoner but it’s certainly changed a bit since then!
Absolutely! I’ve been overwhelmed with the video’s you’ve put up. I try too keep up worth them, and ones I’ve seen recently has been truly amazing. Good work 👍🏾
The thumbnail is click bait. We can see 444020 without SWR livery in the video.
WHO CARES
Another brilliant video! I really enjoyed this :)
Thanks Trainspotter11. The rain gave me such a headache in this video. All I’ll say is that it’s a good job that 707 was where it was, got me out of the rain whilst it was quiet 😃
@@StarlifeStudios your welcome :)
Thoes 12 car (3*4 car 444's) are really really long.
Massive compared to the 2 car 158 / 170 from around me lol
The 444s are 10-car, not 12: 2 x 5-car units.
Great shots👍
StarlifeStudios, I recommend going to the southeastern stations when the 376s are halfway through being replaced by class 707s.
As far as I am aware, the 376s aren’t being replaced at all. The 707s will likely part replaced 465s/466s instead. I will be around when it happens 😃
@@StarlifeStudios whatever gets replaced, I'm just happy that the 707s have a new home. But il be sad if it is the 465/466 getting replaced as those are my childhood trains( but I'm only 9, so they are my normal trains really)
I still find the voices inside the trains like when the lady says 'If you see something that doesn't look right speak to a member of staff or text the British transport police on 61016
Hey man great vid. Just thought I'd let you know exposure adjustment is a bit off in the thumbnail. Might wanna turn that down on your next one.
Can you do trainspotting at Three Bridges on the Brighton Main Line
He already did Norwood Jct, pretty close to New Cross Gate
8:01 hellfire Sprinters 🔥😍. Trains are running late also 701004 with 10 coaches long running 22 minutes late what happened.
Hello Arnold! The sprinters honestly made this journey worth it, I’m so happy that they’re still running! I think the 701 was timed to be in front of the local terminator (the 458) but end up stuck behind it.
@@StarlifeStudios yep! The Portsmouth Harbour train was on the slow line weird
@@arnoldspottingvideos5269 I think something happened to the fast line bc of the storm
Why do the 455's sound both old and new at the same time? They have those old 80's GEC motors, but have a more modern Hitachi-like whine to them. I swear they didn't use to sound like that.
Hello Still_Guns, Under SouthWest Trains, all the 455s under went an AC Traction Upgrade which changed various motor parts. I believe the new components were actually designed to be direct replacements. Since the parts didn’t replace the gearing, the original sounds are still present (rather like a 319 can still have its motor sounds on diesel power). The 456s on this route are not upgraded and there are a few cases in this video where you can hear the difference. Great question!
Oh and this was a great vid :)
Thanks! 😄
WAIT I SAW SOMEONE RECORDING AT WEYBRIDGE I WAS ON ONE OF THE WHITE TRAINS THAT RAN THROUGH THE STAITION!
Lucky catch of the 701 the storm was a pain aswell Great video still
Hi Daniel, I honestly had no idea it was being delivered on this day. Fortunately, I used the 707 next to me as some rain cover whilst things were quiet 😃
@@StarlifeStudios smart thing to do whats the station
@@StarlifeStudios i bet its Birmingham
The next station you say? I’m actually not 100% sure, I’m waiting on a few operators to get back to me with branding rights. Sticking with not before visited stations for the foreseeable future though.. maybe some Anglia stuff..? 😉
@@StarlifeStudios sure i live in east Anglia so it will be entertaining
Can you do Worplesdon? Good video lots of trains passing
Is that the station between Guildford and Woking? I'd like to visit that area as that line can be very busy around the peaks.
What is your favourite and least favourite train station?
Good question Nathan, I think Retford is a really solid choice for the best and the worst would have to be Coventry, I always end up getting told to leave 😂. What about yourself?
-Fav: Wolverton bc of tilting trains and a bit of variety
-Worst: Limehouse as there are only horrid 357s AKA Noob train
Fantastic video! When are the class 701s going to be fully in service?
SWR have stated that they should begin to enter service in early 2021, the Class 707s will be withdrawn first. Thanks for the question Thomas.
About that… midway through 2023 and they’re still not in service!
in very good in viedo! :)
Could you maybe do st Mary cray or Orpington if you haven’t already
Hi Scooby Boy! I have recently been to Sevenoaks (Video on my channel) and will also be uploading some more videos in that area soon. Orpington has been subject to a lot of train service alterations recently due to the Hither Green Resignalling. I hope to go back to Kent soon, so I'll put Orpington and St Mary Cray on my list to visit.
@@StarlifeStudios thanks☺
Awesome video, subscribed 👍👍
Thanks Qwerty, happy to hear any of your station suggestions 🙂
@@StarlifeStudios hmm. Maybe try Twyford if you haven't already? It's located on the Great Western Mainline. Or Hook, which is on the South Western Mainline. 🙂
Thanks Qwerty, I haven’t been to Twyford but I have been to Maidenhead recently. I need to get some of the Castle HSTs so maybe you’ll get your wish at the same time 😃
@@StarlifeStudios cool, I'm looking forward to them 😀
Great video! 😃 Thinking of coming here, to see the 707s and 455/466s. Do you recommend?
Absolutely, I’m thinking of returning here myself once the 701s start entering traffic. To be honest, most of the stations on this line are good. Be quick with the 707s, they’re almost all gone! Thanks 😃
Thanks for the info, do you know when the last few 707s will be gone on the Weybridge branch because I'm thinking over going their mid November.👍 I think there's around 2 a day at the moment.
@@trainstrainstrains40 your video from Weybridge was great
Aye Weybridges my home station lmao. But the speed they travel is horrificly slow
Nice one Lunatic! I had a feeling you’d say that because of where you typically video. The linespeed is 90 (which isn’t far off the top mainline speed of 100) but it does seem slow compared to other mainlines. The track also seems to look a bit bouncy!
Nice video! How on earth did SWR managed to get a 12 car 450 running to Weymouth from Waterloo? I would recommend visiting Woking, there would be more trains to spot if it wasn't for the pandemic.
Thanks Martin! I’m not sure about that either! This isn’t the last time I saw a 12 car Weymouth service either 😉 Just a shame that the 442s aren’t running at all.
@@StarlifeStudios Do you happen to know the reason why the 442s were not running?
It looks like due to the reduction in timetabled services, they are surplus to requirements (they normally work peak time services). I think it’s unlikely they’ll run now until at least December.
@@StarlifeStudios I guess peak times means more trains.
No not really, woking is 3 stops down the same line that doesn’t have the Weybridge - Waterloo via Hounslow stopper. So infact it’d be less
Do another poll
Great video! Do you know what line class 456 is on because I would like to travel on one
Hi a b, in this video the 456 was on a fast Woking service but I believe that they can appear on any metro service with a 455. There are 24 units so you have a pretty good chance of seeing one if you go to Wimbledon or Clapham!
@@StarlifeStudios thanks for the help. Keep up the videos!
No problem, I genuinely appreciate your kindness :) thank you 😃
do fratton next
Hi NJH Trains, I’m not in the South West very often but I hope to do Portsmouth, Fratton, Southampton and Eastleigh all at similar times. Thanks for the comment. Hope you are well 😃
@@StarlifeStudios ok
Also how do u know the train numbers thats been blocked by another train like the 450 trains that got blocked by the 455 trains?
Hi Lunatic, I work for the railway so I have a few contacts/tools which help with some of the missing numbers 🙂 I also use a few websites to give me the correct freight headcodes - freightmaster is a great one.
StarlifeStudios Rail Videos ahh right makes sense. Thank you 😊
@@StarlifeStudios I just use RTT
Can u do a vid when u go to Bolton Percy station it is a nature reserve in between York station and leeds
Hi Georgina, I would love to.. but it looks like Bolton Percy station has been closed! The nearest open station (Ulleskelf) looks like its quite active, ill see what I can do.
It is closed but u can still go Yorkshire wildlife trust now own it
@@dylanstrainvideos2712 It looks like a nice area, I'm not in Yorkshire that much but if I happen to be that way, Ill take a look. Thanks for the suggestion :)
I go all the time and u get a good variety of trains and sometimes even a hst!
@@dylanstrainvideos2712 Thats great! The closest I've been to that location is York and Leeds (both of which I have videos for).
No trains past Salisbury to Exeter on that day? Sorry if you don’t remember!
My records showed there were none on this date between 10am and 1pm. There may have been some during the morning/evening peaks but I am not sure. Hope this helps Class444.
4:34 poor guy. I feel bad for him and all passengers on the service. He must've been hiting himself because he was so late
Would it be possible for you to do Salisbury next?
I honestly would love to, but my area is back in Tier 4. I currently have enough 2020 backlog to keep pumping out videos until the end of Feb. I will try and visit as soon as I can, promise.
@@StarlifeStudios Ok that's great, hopefully tier 4 ends soon!
I hope so too Thomas, its really making this un-necessarily difficult.
Do Grantham
It’s on this list for later this year!
What Camera do you use may I ask?
Hi Ringer Thomas, I use a Panasonic HC-VX1EB. Thanks for your comment!
Quality doesn’t come cheap Donna! I’ve been progressing from an iPhone 5 in 2015!
I current do not consider 60fps to be a reasonable investment. Maybe as the channel grows I may investigate further.
pls
do trains at basingstoke
Hi Craigy, I’d like to visit Basingstoke (and the west of England in general) I’m hoping to do that next year 😃 Thanks for watching!
18:38 those old. Plastic Class 701s!! *sigh* Beginning service soon
Are you not a fan of the 455s/456s? I like them, it’s a shame that despite their refurbishment and motor upgrades, they still aren’t up to SWRs mark.
@@StarlifeStudios I hope the 455, 44+56 and 458s get used somewhere else
@@LordEverythingtrains the 455,56 are all getting scrapped.
@@LordEverythingtrains and maybe even the 458s even though they are nice. They would be good on the southern coastline. The 444s would be good for Gatwick express
@@getalife633 well SWR said that they are reconfiguring the 458s back to 100mph 4 car units for the Portsmouth direct line, but they never said how many
First view
Congrats! Hope you enjoyed this one. It was VERY wet!
@@StarlifeStudios I filmed a couple of trains at Starbeck last Thursday and just found a gap in the rain when the trains were present!
