Now this really takes me back! I remember standing on the down fast platform of Bushey & Oxhey as it was then known train spotting in my early teens in the late 50s, dodging lumps of coal flying off the tenders of the expresses heading north, and getting sprayed with water with the tenders spilling all over the place after having picked up water from the troughs a mile or so south. Oh how those were the days!
Bushey is a railway station in Hertfordshire which serves Bushey and Oxhey. It is situated on the West Coast Main Line, 5 miles north of Harrow & Wealdstone, on an embankment. North of the station, the railway crosses the Colne valley on several viaducts. The station is served by London Northwestern Railway semi-fast trains on the West Coast main line, and by London Overground services on the Watford DC line, a slow local service along the West Coast route. At Bushey, this branches west on a loop to serve Watford High Street railway station, before rejoining the main line at Watford Junction.
No worries guys! No-one was making insults, these are all opinions! I think we just have to remember that behind every channel is a style and a personality, some like to talk and some like to stay silent but what matters is that you enjoy. Thanks.
Despite Bushey is mostly served by London Overground. Some London Northwestern Railway and Southern trains do stop at Bushey and Avanti West Coast trains passes through at high speed.
Had no idea Bushy is also the main link for London Overground services to Watford Junction. InterCity Swallow has returned, the class 87, MK3 set and MK3 DVT looks and sounds epic speeding through. Outstanding film :-)
This was an extremely rare Voyager move. Voyagers are not normally booked to Manchester but due to an issue with a Pendolino earlier, a Voyager was swapped onto this run.
Hey, just wondering, is there any barriers at Bushey as I am coming to it tomorrow by car, and not train, so I wanted to know if they would let me through or if there's even gates there.
When will these Southern trains are going to start heading back as far as Milton Keynes Central? Also, Southern Railway trains *should* be to/from South Croydon
Unlikely they will ever go back to Milton Keynes again. Southern has had to massively change its operating patterns across its entire route to afford the withdrawal of the 455s and its not over yet. When the 313s go, the stress will increase further. I can definitely see Southern ordering new stock within the next 5 years especially if passenger demand increases again.
i recommend going to tring as thats a really good station for train spotting plus i had been train spotting at tring on 14/01/2023 and saw no southern trains i thought they went up to Mil' Keynes Central and do u know what happened to London Northwestern railways class 319's as i went saturday and saw none so can u tell me any info.
Hi David, thanks for the recommendation for Tring, I will definately look into that as there aren't many on this route I haven't been to! Southern don't go up to MKC anymore due to COVID cut backs and with the 455s gone, those services will likely never return. The LNR 319s are stored at Camden Carriage Sidings on weekends and are only used in weekday morning and evenings.
@@StarlifeStudios Alright! Thanks for the info this time ill make sure ill train spot before watford jcn station. and ill make sure i travel and film near the mornings or evenings. sad that its only that.
Hi Starlife, nice video, would you take any requests from viewers to go to some stations? Worplesdon and West Byfleet are good stations to film. Worplesdon for the long uphill and downhill of the train farther ahead and West Byfleet due to its odd but satisfying platform 3 and you can see Woking Station if camera is very zoomed in
Of course! I love to take requests 😃 I have actually looked at West Byfleet before but the strikes have really hindered me. I will see if I can make this happen this year for you FJxChilli.

There are a couple of specials in this one, Enjoy! 😃(No 69006 in this one)
The specials were great
They were
I was the one in the red shirt lol, nice video!
Hope you got some great shots 😃

The OBS seen at 9:40 is a perfect example of someone who loves they're job. Great video as always!
Absolutely! I'm a big supporter of personnel/ guards on trains and safety in general on the railway. Thanks for watching 😃
Great location there at the London end of the WCML…great filming & great variety 😎👀🎉👍🏽 Naturally my favourite part was 87002 - classic ⭐️🇬🇧😎🎉👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it EJC 😃

why is this from wikipedia are you trying to be cool? LOL
As my local station, it is so great to finally see a proper video done by a proper channel!
They are all proper channels. Don’t insult them for trying their best 😡🖕

Brilliant as always, might have to give Bushey a try at some point in the future
Looks like an excellent location when it's dry for some fast action, nice video.
Absolutely gorgeous video
This was such a great video to watch.💕
Thanks Emma, glad you enjoyed.
Amazing
I was on 710377 earlier this week. Nice to see it here lol
I hope to fan in the UK one day, and I'm from the US. I do know a lot about UK trains, though! Keep up the nice videos!
Great railway video
Rush hour was awesome
The Watford-end of the station's slow lines (namely the curve/cant) makes for a great photo/video scene. Good job!
As usual an excellent video
Thanks again! 😃
Great video!
Brilliant video, very pleasing to see how well your channel has developed over the years!
Thank you very much ACE! I won't lie, its taken a lot of time and work but Ill glad you recognise it 😃

No Southerns at all but yeh otherwise yep
Can’t wait to watch this
Amazing stuff

Quite good
It’s been long since I haven’t commented on your vids I apologise to that but like always I love all the content you post to us ❤️
No problem 😊
Superb video pal 👌🏻 👍🏻
Any ideas if 4Y19 will run this saturday, Ben? This doesn't look like a regular runner :(
@@StarlifeStudios nope running Friday but not Saturday. Like you said it's rare to run weekends.
Nice one mate. This video is when felixstowe strike happens (No freight trains going to/from port of Felixstowe)
Yep! I’d of had some 90s as well if it would have ran as planned! 😞
@@StarlifeStudios Is only just London Gateway and Southampton
I was there!
5:07 Well that was fast... (with a bonus horn)
Since when we’re the voyagers going from Manchester Piccadilly to London Euston at 6:49
This was an extremely rare Voyager move. Voyagers are not normally booked to Manchester but due to an issue with a Pendolino earlier, a Voyager was swapped onto this run.
@@StarlifeStudiosoh ok I was wondering btw keep the good work up on your videos
Nice video
I love it
6:45 that’s rare for the Avanti 221 to be at Manchester Piccadilly
Nice trains 🚂🚃🚃
A 221 from Manchester to London ? Rare 6:51
Nice
Cool
If only southern services would stop at Bushey
Considering Bushey's size, i think the amount of services it has defintley could be worse...
Hey, just wondering, is there any barriers at Bushey as I am coming to it tomorrow by car, and not train, so I wanted to know if they would let me through or if there's even gates there.
3:40 HOW FAST WAS THAT 350 DESIRO GOING???
More than 1mph
@@BHXplanesandtrains no shit
When will these Southern trains are going to start heading back as far as Milton Keynes Central?
Also, Southern Railway trains *should* be to/from South Croydon
In addition, when will all Bombardier Electrostars (377/2) are going to start having 8 carriages long along the northwest, the west and the south?

they're never going back to milton keynes. they curtailed the service to east croydon in 2018 and clapham during lockdown
@@PGATProductions Why…?
@@robertmwamba4791 by now route knowledge up to milton keynes is completely gone
and the horn scared him again like what the 745 did

Did 221112 + 221108 come from Manchester Piccadilly?
Yes, very rare.
