🚄 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 My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were.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.
Enjoy this extra long video at Crewe, give the video a like 👍if you appreciate the 3 hours it took to upload! 😃
@Gerry McNally he has done Clapham Junction
I’m think it may need a re-visit soon though, especially since the 701s are being primed for service! Thanks both 😃
@@StarlifeStudios Clapham Junction is worth a revisit
Have you done Coventry?
Coventry is an interesting one, I’ve been twice and both times I was told to stop filming. I may try again in the future though.
That was the most perfect announcement I saw
*153 approaching* Plat 5 09.34 Avanti West Coast service to London Euston))
We live in Alsager (between Crewe & Stoke) we often take our grandson Alfie a train fanatic to Crewe just to stay on the platforms for a couple of hours, he loves it. His dad also takes him to the Crewe Heritage Centre regularly where they are members.
Great video, thanks and good spotting,, cheers Tony.
Early! Great video mate! (Haven’t watched it all but can already know it’s gonna be good) Saw the noti from 10seconds and had to watch it now😃 Crewe looks so nice so much different routes and connecting!
Let me know what you think when you've finished watching 👍
Love Crewe Starlife,Though It Dosent get most of the Avanti’s From Warrington BQ,Back from Lanzarote By the way, And of course great Video!
If I ever travel to the UK, especially to railfan, Crewe will be very high on my list! Love the variety and clickety-clack of the many trains running over the junctions and switchbacks.
Excellent railway video as always, Crewe is definitely a good location.
Great video...that used to be my favourite place in the 1980’s at Crewe...the north end of Platform 6 😎👍🏽🎉 Lovely to see that 86 on platform 6...just like the good old days, although 86259 will always be “Peter Pan” to us oldies...not “Less Ross” 🤔🤣👍🏽
It’s a great place, been here many times but just never filmed! I had to go when the charters were coming through, without a special or two it just wouldn’t seem right! I could have got more specials on a weekday but I’ve been stuck with weekends recently. Mr Ross is also sitting in the second mans seat as well 😃 It’s an extremely well looked after machine for its age.
@@StarlifeStudios yes it always adds to the occasion to see a few special excursions 😀👍🏽 The 86’s were solid, reliable machines for decades on the WCML then a few went over to the GEML when it first got electrified to Ipswich then Norwich in 1985/86 🙂 I remember travelling home from Scotland on the Glasgow/Edinburgh to Bristol overnight sleeper in the early months of 1988...it was freezing in Scotland and snowing when both the Glasgow and Edinburgh portions joined at Carstairs. 86256 “Pebble Mill” made light work of the adverse weather and Shap and Beattock summits plus its 16 coaches and whisked us to Birmingham New Street in style. The frozen 86 gave way to a class 47 for the run down to Bristol, I think it was a47555 “The commonwealth Spirit?” - great BR days 😎👍🏽
Nice Video, didn't know TFW went to Crewe and nice catch of WCR 57314 and 57313! And that class 86! Your video is full of brilliant shots!
It wouldn’t be Crewe without a few specials Tiger Trainsz 😃 Thanks for your kind comments. I’m hoping this video does really well 🙂
A young engine driver at Crewe
Once put gum in the firebox flue.
A kid standing nearby
Said, "Now I know why
The engine says Chew-chew, choo-choo..."
Wow. Long Video! Evident that you were right by the speaker. Anne was loud and clear. THIS station is good for variety.
This video was 17GB and took over 3 hours to upload, enjoy 😃
Brilliant video! I really enjoyed this :)
Very interesting long video from north and south parts of the platform. Respect only to your videos. Thank you very much!
Yk them locos pulling coaches r they special services or do they run all the time im just looking into going to crew and was curious
Another wonderful video of railfanning. Really enjoy watching these trains go by
What has happened to Rachel and shaun Angel of crewe they seem to have gone i cant find them very 😢
I do like those 175 TFW’s they travel so far and are very nice trains!
Yeah they're better now with Charging Plugs on Board.
Ik
Plus they do a 3 hour + journey from Manchester to Carmarthen / Milford Haven with 2 coaches
I disagree strongly. You have no idea how overcrowded they get. Such low capacity.
I was on one of these Avanti Trains to Glasgow Central at the time of recording! You recorded me!
Well fancy that! Hope you had a good trip and a nice time wherever you ended up 😃
Brilliant video 👍🏻 gotta love Crewe!
Crewe is a great station.
Starlife,I’m pretty sure what happend with the trains at Speed video and How clips of Stations that aren’t uploaded Yet,correct me if I’m wrong but are they videos that have been recorded by you but the individual video hasn’t been uploaded yet,if this is True I can’t wait for the Northallerton Video!
You could look at the trains at speed as a bit of a teaser, if the individual video hasn’t appeared yet, it will soon 😃 However, Northallerton was just a quick visit to get some clips so that won’t be a full video 😞
Fair enough,and I’m never disappointed with your content!
one of the best vids i saw but pls do penzance
To many airpolution dieseltrains in England , that,s to bad for the planet earth !!!!!!!!!
have you seen america?
Crystal clear images. Amazing audio. What camera are you using here please.
I use a Panasonic HC VX1. Thanks for the comment Paul! 😃
Ooh you were so close I went Stoke On Trent
Sir Les Ross at 5:10, nice capture
Did you see a 390119 on 1M09?
Some good trains
Great video as always. I appreciate the time it must to take to edit and upload these.👍👍
3:09 HA, really?
Is Transport for Wales going to retain the Class 175 Coradia DMUs as they are to be replaced by the Class 197 Civity DMUs. Which are coming into service either at the end of this year or in the beginning of next year (2022). And the TfW Class 150 and Class 153 DMUs also to be replaced by new trains in the next several years.
Andrew, I’m honestly not sure about the 175s. I saw a plan for rolling stock cascade about 4 months ago which showed the 175s were to all go but then again the 170s were never supposed to leave. As far as the plan is concerned all sprinters will be replaced.
@@StarlifeStudios Ok.
Hey there . What camera and shutter speed do you use ?
Hello HowlinWolf989, I use a Panasonic HC-VX1 to record.
@@StarlifeStudios thank you
Is that a dead bird? 🤔 37:14
Appears so!
Hacking
Amazing
The southern end looks better to film from.
Wow. This station looks a bit bigger than that
Great job like#20
40 MINUTES?? THAT'S SO LONG! How many hour did it take to edit and record? I really appreciate this video and the effort you put on it.
I have a few longer ones than this but it took me about 4 hours to edit and render and then another hours to upload. Not including travel and filming itself. I’m glad you appreciate it, it’s awesome to hear it Joel 😃⭐️
@@StarlifeStudios No problem!
great video yet again!
1:58 The train from Chester: Why was an EMT in the back? Did it transfer to TfW and not get refurbed?
Good Question! 153318 is a former GWR 153 which was transferred to EMT after being surplus to requirements. When EMR acquired the 170s, they were moved to TfW where it is expected to not be refurbished and will be replaced by incoming 197s.
@Xstgamer412 & BPL_North I wanted that to happen. They can work with the 156s to replace the 153s on Northern for extra capacity
great work again mate,a pleasure to watch
Thanks for the visit TrainSpotting Ldn!
Great video
Great video, so clear. what kit did you use please?
Hi Simon, thanks for your kind comments. I use a Panasonic HC-VX1 for my recordings 😃
Great video mate. Crewe is a nice station
Thanks Arnold, I like the station but its physically falling apart, some of the canopies have been dismantled and scafolding in holding the footbridge up! Shame really because its largely unchanged since the 1970s.
There’s quite a variety at Crewe thinking of it
One of the highest in the UK just behind Doncaster I believe 😃
Love the vid 👍
is it possible to make vids in 360, like maybe look into it?
Funny you should mention that, I have attempted to get a 360 Degree Camera for stations through sponsorship but have so far been unsucessful but I will keep at it. London bridge with a 360 would be awesome 😃 A drone would be awesome as well!
@@StarlifeStudios i see amazing ideas coming up!
Great video mate. First class as always 👍🏻
Thanks again Ben! Got some GBRf in this one 😃
@@StarlifeStudios haha yes was going to comment on the end but I thought I won't be to biased 🤣
When are the 197 is expected to come in to service
never
@@ttvvideos2050 lol. 2023
Superb video, great presentation as well.
Many thanks QuirkwolvesRail! (Love your name by the way) 😃
@@StarlifeStudios Bostin ;-)
Great vid
I liked the Avanti Voyagers as the best
Whats your opinion on the Avanti livery on them? My opinion is that its not as bright as Virgin and similar to CrossCountry.
But sadly they are to be replaced by the Class 805 IETs from next year.
@@Andrewjg_89 Most people don’t like Hitachi trains, but I’m okay with it.
@@Andrewjg_89 they don't even tilt so what's the point
It’s really annoying Avanti have the most boring livery let they have the best pride livery
Yep and I have to use them on my thumbnails. The present Avanti livery just blends right into the background and this is exactly why I used white ones on my Wolverton video.
