Love your videios, but totally agree on lack of variety. It's the same here in Victoria, Australia. It's all Vlocity 3 car units (also worked as 6 car units), but very few Locomotive Hauled Passenger services compared to years back. Rail Tours here are the same... the same consists, the same locomotives. Keep enjoying the life down there (I'd love to live in the UK) and take care.
Bless you mate i hope you will do another video soon mate but if you want to take time away for abit i understand i was in hospital again last week watching some of your old videos and others you did and i still enjoy them take care mate and hope to see you soon
You sound really fed up. I understand and agree with a lot that you have said. I enjoy your product, but realise it's probably expensive to produce. Thanks for the enjoyment you have given me.
Great video Alex mate i think every Saturday at the moment it's the Mayflower going to Kingswear and return and the Royal Duchy for tomorrow I think and 1st of September is the Black 5 1 train i would like to see again is castlesets I know we don't get them in Exeter only 1 in the evening going to Bristol Temple Meads
@@danbickle we only get the one castle set going to Exeter from Penzance on a Saturday morning late Saturday morning and back and one ever late weekday evening as for the railtours don’t get me start on that I been really disappointed on the lack of variety of railtours this year even one or two other people are starting to not like it either it’s just so boring 🥱
Oh i wish they were in bristol still :( december 9 was last one, 43187+43029 i was on it from bristol to penzance and back and saw its final journey on 2c89 newport to taunton
To be honest Alex I don't blame you I quite agree with you there isn't the variety just isn't there anymore not just in the Southwest but across the whole network in the UK I mean I don't make UA-cam Vlogs but I watch yourself and other vlogers I do hope you keep the uploads coming look forward to seeing your next one whenever that might be.
Get yourself a rail rover pass Alex, freedom of the South West, covers you down to Cheltenham, Penzance, Salisbury and Swindon to name a few places. I really enjoy your videos, keep going! 👍
Fully understand your situation and agree with you Alex my friend, the variety is boring in Exeter and railtours are boring too, hope you've enjoyed the weather, will still support you no matter what mate i live in Maidstone kent and we get aload off 375's and the highspeed trains too.
I agree here, Bristol and everywhere around is super boring, railtours arent that fun anymore and thats why ive been putting up a couple more bus videos than before. Did see the black 5 and 47848 passing trowbridge earlier though
when i was going to dawlish i thought the variety is really good because what i get now is all 197s a couple of sprinters on heart of wales the 153s and the 800s but in devon its much better you get 221s 220s 800s 802s 158s 150s 159s and soon 175s so i think what you get is great because here is boring and they are scrapping the 150s here because TFW dont want to spent money like GWR want to. but with the steam seeing it once or twice is good enough it would get boring so im on your side about that
@@alextrainspotterhd6444i would of thought change at castle cary on a london service and switch to a weymouth service there, or westbury im not sure there but I assume castle cary

Although I take your point regarding prices of tickets!

@@brianbarnden1264 well I don’t sound fed up really just fed up with the lack of variety and railtours become so predictable now as well

@@charlie8562 yeah Bristol not much better either is infact you get the same trains down there to here just mainly turbos IETs and voyagers
@@alextrainspotterhd6444at least you get the odd hst, 150s and south western. Shame tfw and swr dont serve bristol anymore either

@@SionsTrainVideos yeah I agree with you on the railtours unbelievable boring sorry to hear the lack of variety your way now
@@alextrainspotterhd6444 yesterday tho a 158 and 150 came down which made me the happiest lad on earth
@@SionsTrainVideosoh you should see Bristol 😂 165/6s the odd 158, 800s and 220s. Straight boring after 5 months
All the best Alex!
@@robertmurray4373 thank you but I’m not completely gone just not sure when I will upload again
👍
Please remember that the rail tours are reducing the amount of road traffic - surely better bored than poisoned with pollution?
@@philipsalmon2192 nope it’s way too boring unfortunately we need better variety for us trainspotters
Would you do a long distance journey to weymouth from Exeter Alex?
Trains don't go to Weymouth from exeter
@@jackchapman5052 I have been to Weymouth once but would have to change at Southampton I believe
@@alextrainspotterhd6444i would of thought change at castle cary on a london service and switch to a weymouth service there, or westbury im not sure there but I assume castle cary
