    This must be part of the old Varsity line, Cambridge-Oxford, on which I did a return trip in 1965. I seem to remember that we were steam hauled.

    Not a bad video, what spoils it is the kids in the cab and the chattering I don't know how the driver put up with it.

      Philip Alldred we totally agree, and his parent/guardian was totally oblivious

    It's good to have a video of this route with half-decent picture quality. The previous ones were pretty awful, so many thanks. If you get a chance to film the return journey, I think many people would appreciate it..

    I agree that the infernal chattering was a little off putting plus a few typos on the station names - one being the "d" missing on Woburn Sands, but apart from that this line needs promoting for better usage until it reopens as part of the new Varsity Line that's coming soon?

    Makes a welcome change going from Bletchley to Bedford. Most vids I've seen on this line are from the other direction.

    At bletchley that first station is all banged up and those bridges are so rusty! Yet once you get past that crap the rest is double track and in surprisingly good condition. Then it gets crappy again at bedford - that junction needs pulling up and completely rebuilding! Wonder why the bits at bletchley and bedford are single track and crap? Guessing those kids got out at st johns due to probably not having tickets and the man at bedford station comes close to being flattened.

    • @TonyMatthewsComposer
      @TonyMatthewsComposer ปีที่แล้ว

      There are two trains running on the line, you don't need double track right to the end. Bedford is a large depot, space is limited and a single track snaking by it is ok for a frequency of service going passed it. I would agree though, the Bletchley does look a big "banged up"

  • @ianhosier4042
    @ianhosier4042 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wonder how many of those stations will get chopped when it becomes east west rail? Must have taken hours to get from oxford to cambridge on the old varsity line with all those stations. A good number of them serve nothing at all, yet that last bit that has houses and really needs a station doesnt have one at all.

    • @thechilterntrainspotters
      @thechilterntrainspotters  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We doubt any will be closed. East West Rail services will probably just skip them. ^LW

      “People who are against police cuts are only concerned about jobs and not about crime” I’m not against DOO, but that’s a terrible way to misrepresent the other side...

      @@Ingramdumpkiss: You're misrepresenting what the driver said, and that's what I'm taking issue with. Not once was safety or the RMT mentioned, and he's talking to children while driving a train, are you expecting him to start giving a detailed explanation of why "DO very bad" when the mood is supposed to be light hearted?
      As above, I'm not against Driver Only Operation and there are many good points for it, but your statement is just as dishonest as those who say "those who want DOO don't care about safety and only care about profit!"
