    Excellent videos! Love the halogens here, and at all the crossings on the Marston Vale line - somewhere I hope to visit before the Summer! That 230 looks really good, and it looks like you enjoyed meeting with Jarton!
    Another thing: I've heard that Lincoln Level Crossing is being permanently closed in May of this year!

      Thank you! I spent a very pleasant weekend filming all these crossings. Most of them share similar characteristics with the dates of the lights and barriers. And yeah, I always like meeting different rail enthusiasts. There's no fooling me about my favourite crossing in Lincoln haha 😃

      Why would he be a problem if he barely travels outside of Lincoln, let alone reaching Buckinghamshire or Essex.

      @@UKLevelCrossingsChannel This may need a bit of clarity, but I think DP was on about me thinking about visiting Lincoln L/C (something that will happen imminently), so he was warning me about Foobe.

    Two closures with two different types of pasenger trains. Good shot with the 153 at the end!

    I was up here a month or so ago on a trip to Bedford. Was on a 150 going there, a 153 coming back and saw a 230 at Bedford where I met another rail enthusiast and we chatted a bit about the passing of the HSTs and other things. It’s a quaint little line and I would like to return at some point.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  5 років тому

      The 230s should start running on the line soon hopefully. It is a nice little line. Most of the stations in quite peaceful locations.

    • @JamesTorson
      @JamesTorson 5 років тому

      It will be nice to have the 230s - that is, unless they turn out to be horribly unreliable! The 153s are funny little things so I shall miss them when they go. Maybe in a month or two I'll take a trip up to St. Albans on the Abbey line to catch a 319, as it's something I've been meaning to do for a while. The Braintree branch line has also caught my eye so we'll see about that one as well.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  5 років тому

      Cool. We'll have to see how the 230s will run but they've been running this line on test for a while now. I've filmed on the Braintree Branch line too 😎

    Nice video! I am surprised you didn't film at Aspley Guise (least used station in Bedfordshire). Class 230 are made from old underground stock (I think).

      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  5 років тому +1

      Thank you! 😎 I've actually filmed every crossing on the Marston Vale Like including at Aspley Guise. I hold back videos and upload them on different dates. You'll see more videos from the Marston vale line over time 😎

      The halogens are a few years old now and still look good for their age. Glad the whole line still has halogens 👍

    The class 230 isnt just operated by a battery, its called the battery train

    Great vid -how did you know that this particular 230 unit was battery-powered and not diesel?

    • @dr_dr
      @dr_dr 5 років тому +1

      Not a "battery train". The Class 230s between Bedford and Bletchley in LNWR service are DEMUs (Diesel Electric Multiple Units). 230002 is Vivarails battery variant.

    • @UKLevelCrossingsChannel
      @UKLevelCrossingsChannel  5 років тому +1

      Thanks 👍 I've found out that the handful of 230 units are either a diesel electric multiple unit or battery EMU depending on configuration. I believe 230001 is a DEMU and 230002 is a BEMU (battery electric)

      @@UKLevelCrossingsChannel I think literally every 230 apart from unit 002 is a DEMU. I think that unit is the exception.

    It's not Aspley Guise, but close enough.
