    Great video Simon!
    Both the 121 and the 37 look superb.
    LSL always do a great job on their locos/rolling stock.

    Hello again Simon,
    Just wanted to congratulate you on this video, i really enjoyed it from start to finish.
    Like i told you before in one of my comments to you, i really like the class 121 bubble car and it's nice to see a few of the old girls still surviving today on the national network.
    And i must say it was a bonus surprise at Crewe station at the end to see PACER 142003 plus 37409 😮 wow in ScotRail.!!!!!!!! Never thought that would ever happen?
    Doesn't she look nice in her new coat of paint.?
    Anyway Simon, keep up the good work mate, your channel is amazing!!!!!!
    All the best from. Devon Mike 🚂

    Good news for you Simon I went to atherstone yesterday and I’ve caught the LNWR liveried 730/2 units on a test run and I’ve caught them for the first time ever
    Plus I caught two railtours one behind Diana Spencer going to Norwich
    And Les Ross going to Carnforth to make way for tangmere to continue to Carlisle

    How did you pick the day when the Crewe - Llandudno wasn't a 197? 😱 I watch that one on the webcams every day, it's my indication to put the kettle on. It's a great little unit. Great to see it out and about.

    Ah pity you didn't film passing through Wem, I spent my childhood there and spent many hours in the 70s at the station. back then we didn't care too much for bubble cars lol

    • @Sim0nTrains
      @Sim0nTrains  19 днів тому

      A visit to Wem will be on the cards as I would like to visit every station between Crewe and Shrewsbury for a future video. Most likely I may do this in the Spring/Summer of 2025
