Headcodes - e.g. 1F32 or 5M00 - These are used by the railway signallers to determine where trains are on the network. Every train within a region has a specific four code ID. Click Here to learn more

Set Number - e.g. WB64 or NL04 - These are semi-permanent loco hauled coach formations which are kept together for formalities. The first two letters usually indicate the maintenance depot responsible e.g. OC is Old Oak Common, LA is Laira. The number indicates the rake number.
🚄 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 My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were.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
I do love watching trains especially in Scotland. Thanks for sharing ❤
Me too
Thank you Alison! For an evening video I really did enjoy filming this one even if it got a little chilly when the sun went down! 🤣👍🏻
Great video at Aberdeen Ross. Nice to catch the Caledonian Sleeper and few ScotRail HSTs. I was surprise CrossCountry voyager didn't turn up at Aberdeen unless that terminate at Edinburgh Waverley. Have a nice weekend and stay safe
During this period, only one CrossCountry service operated from Aberdeen and it was sourced by a Voyager which ran empty from Edinburgh in the early morning. You can see this specific service returning in my Prestonpans video. Hope you had a great weekend too. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻
I swear Aberdeen is a haven for HST’s and 158s 😂😂😂😂
Another amazing scottish based video.
Could you make a heritage trains compilation video? Im sure alot of people would enjoy that!
Still got a few more from Scotland too! I will consider it definitely. 😃
This is great, nice to see Scotland again! 😎
Two more videos from Scotland still to come! 😃
Wow, there should be a noise competition class 43 VS class 73. Tight competition to say the least.
Anyway, stunning evening session from Aberdeen also nice movements into Aberdeen Depot :-)
Many thanks Ricky. 😃👍🏻 The new engines on the 73s sure are loud so they get my vote! I really liked this station and it was quite a challenge to film too since online signalling maps do not cover this region, all my footage was like-of-sight.
Good vid😊
I used live in Aberdeen
I really liked your city, I even got chance to visit the lighthouse too 😃👍🏻
@@StarlifeStudios oh nice
33:25 I love that train, class 800. One of my favourites.
The 800s have grown on me, they look and sound the part but I'm still yet to be convinced they're better than what they replaced. Thanks Rhys 😃
Amazing video as always Ross! Lots of HSTs! 👍
HSTs a plenty ENC! I was also hoping for a Colas 70 too but it was not to be. I love the shot of the three HSTs next to each other, very Paddington esk.
You are a legendary person! 🤩
Thank you for the kind words! Some say you are a Legend too 😃
❤ thanks!!!@@StarlifeStudios
I love these videos when they are in Scotland because its the best country
I completely agree. I love Scotland, its a fantastic country. 😃
#Transport Also #Trains! Also #MindTheStep! Also #MindTheGap! Also #Loveit! And also #Enjoyit!
Great Trainspotting Ross! What was so amazing of Aberdeen?
Two things: The sheer amount of HSTs in 2023 and the depot being next door. The staff were great as well. 😃👍🏻 Thanks Filip.
Wow nice great your in scotland again lovely vid may i when djd you film this
2:49 Train 1 - Cameraman 0 😆
Waow Amazing frens👍
Aberdeen, this one has been truly anticipated 😃
HST Heaven 😍
@@StarlifeStudios 💯% 🤣🤣🤣
@@StarlifeStudios It’s like they all have migrated to Highlands! Other then the odd 43 cross country we might see now and again Lol
@@duainesimpson274 Sadly those are no more!
Some de-branded CrossCountry powercars are now used by Colas Rail on Network Rail test trains but the pool of use for these machines has significantly reduced since 2019. Only really at the extremes (Penzance and Aberdeen) can a lot of them be seen. In this video I really loved the view of the three together - Very Paddington-esk.
Aberdeen is a very nice city. My Dad likes Aberdeen and he’s been there several times as my Dad comes from Scotland.
This is a brilliant fantastic awesome amazing lovely 😍❤😀😊 Video on TH-cam i love it 😀❤♥💜😍 Also i love Transport ! And also i love Trains 🚆😍 !
#BeBrave Also #BeStrong Also #StayStrong Also #BeSafe Also #StaySafe And also #StaySafeEveryone
Great work! I was thinking of doing a video there as well, but how do you get past the ticket barriers??
Just ask
If you ask and be kind, the staff will allow you through. I have had much worse stations believe me! Have fun 👍🏻
Ok, thanks guys.
@@TrainspottingMax-lk7ny np
Beautiful HST in a great livery!
Absolutely! I think it really works well on those trains. 😃 Thanks for watching.
Nice video. I like Scotland.
Oh wait 8/6/23 ok since your in Scotland Carnoustie is quite close yet see a colas class 70 there there quite common and quite great
One of my favourite staitions, Nice!
Mine too! I have been to Aberdeen before but not to film. I'm glad the weather was on my side too 🤣
Great video with loads of HST's! How do you make your titles for information on the trains?
I love your videos can you do Torquay by any chance
Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it 😃
Aberdeen eh? Nice Ross! Request! Are you gonna do Basingstoke?
I can confirm that Basingstoke has been recorded and will be published soon!
@@StarlifeStudiosthat will be a great vid
Thanks Ross! Have a good day!
Quite a unique location, probably the place with the highest ratio of 'bay platforms' to through lines, if you can call them that - almost a terminus but not quite
Manchester Piccadilly?
Potentially yeah, although I may need to revise the term 'bay platform' for those ones haha@@anoniaino I guess also places like Kings Cross in the past with the old widened lines and what not... they make for good trainspotting anyhow
Aberdeen is also unique (to my knowledge) by referring to through lines as 7N and 7S for North and South. Not all the bays are used either, the two the 158s came out of is a siding. Thanks for watching.
12:21 can you control the Cally Sleeper trains from the back like a mock-DVT but only low speeds?
No, it's a propelling movement. The shunter has a radio, as does the driver, and they instruct them when to brake etc.
@@JohnSmith-zx3ch thanks mate fair enough makes sense
I love the hst and dvt tones
Brilliant! Could you do Preston next?
Preston is on my list for this year! 👍 Thanks MG trains.
You could do Bishtopton Station in scotland or paisly gilmour Station also in Scotland
next please do gatwick airport🙏
I am looking at doing Gatwick Airport within the next few months.
its still cool that scotrail might use class 43/hst for another 4 years or so
There retiring them this year
@Trainzat they aren't. 2030 at earliest and even that's not certain. No way are TS paying two leases for one fleet (i.e. retiring the HSTs, obtaining another suitable fleet but still being required by contract to pay the HST lease to 2030) with revenues still the lowest of all the Train Operating Companies.
There's also very much a lack of suitable alternatives presently. 222s were explored, among other options, but the lease was deemed too expensive.
@@hexagon7895 okay then
Thanks for the information Hexagon! I would also add that TS has always wanted for intercity style trains for this route so it’s unlikely they want to backpedal to 170s without a really really important reason. Safety may well draw them some conclusions especially as there have been many damaged sets since introduction (43129 as shown in this video had a collision with a tree a few weeks ago!) 222s or new AT300s is my bet.
What’s with 158712 moving around between platforms?
I believe it was moved to the bay but then ScotRail decided that it was instead to form a service so it eneded up going back to where it came from! I should have named this video 'Montage of 158712 at Aberdeen'! 🤣
Who was the best staff member? And I also film in Aberdeen Station
Hey Starlife, is Aberdeen in Northern Scotland?
It is! 👍🏻
29:17 that’s the train wash isn’t it
Yep! 😃
@@StarlifeStudios hello
Can I please get a happy birthday
