Happy New Year GLoves Trains! 🚂 Thanks for sharing a look around Crewe Station, I'm changing trains here in a few weeks as part of a travel day from Bournemouth to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch... I'm taking two coaches & two trains to pull this off!
Brilliant film G and great new year gift! I enjoyed your visit to Shirley, there ought to be a Temple of some description nearby. Its a very pretty station. I liked the up tempo version of the knicker song. All the best to you for '25 and thanks for all the great content in '24. Your films make my day.
Happy New Year to you G and all the viewers, another cool video, it was a lovely station and so nice to have a quick gander around the area too. Thx again for making these videos they are so relaxing and distraction from everyday events. Looking forward to seeing more adventures in 2025. Cheers Michael.
Shirley must go through a lot of chairs ! Loved the look of Moor St station and Shirley station looked impressive too. Great video again G with two lots of flowing water. Looking forward to your vlogs in 2025.
Happy New Year @glovestrains ! I reckon you will see a Kingfisher on one of your flowing water stopoffs this year, that canal looked a perfect spot for them!
the Random station def looks like a lovely station & theres loads of lovely stations on the WMR network as i discovered back in Feb & i rode down that line while travelling to Stratford Upon Avon & my train stopped at the Random station & the class 172s are great brilliant vlog & Happy New Year
Thanks for visiting. Yes you got the right canal. That towpath used to be muddy in winter. Park name keeps changing. Catch the 49 bus to the local high street.
Surely you can't be serious." "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley." a line from the classic film Airplane ..ive ticked this station off there are a few stations along the way that have old character to them and old platform signs... eventually going to the beautiful Stratford upon Avon ..worth a visit if you've never been...also there is a request stop called 'The lakes'
Happy New Year G, I'm a retired HGV driver many years on nights I used to love cross country runs Mid-Summer for the Wildlife(Deer/Owl/foxes/and rare Badgers)but the Sun Rises, Connect you with mother Gia,
Happy New year G love seeing Shrewsbury featured, used to live there.... Wellington now, that's a nice little station 🚉 you dodged small heath, which was the best 😂😂😂
Brilliant video G, I do like that thing outside New Street station with all the different places you can go to by train. "Shirley" that looks like a nice station and area you visited. :)
Shirley station got to within a day of it being closed in the late 1960s. It’s a fascinating story which concluded with a High Court. injunction. If you look on the stations you will see plaques about the North Warwickshire Defence Committee and Mr Mayman who helped save the line. When Mr Mayman died a Lear’s later his hashes were put in the firebox of a steam locomotive!
Just a lil additional fact, one of those Crewe-Birmingham trains used to start from Stafford and was Stafford’s only TfW service of the day, early morning.
The destination advert boards outside New Street are fairly new. Can't quite remember but I think that they were put up in early summer 2024, maybe to encourage summer rail travel. Glad to know that you enjoyed exploring Shirley and all she has to offer.
Hi G, Thank you for the video - I was wondering what Shirley Train Station looked like becuse I came across it in the station announcement. Your journey from Crew to Birmingham International was very interesting - I only made that journey via either a class 86/87 or 390 via WCML And I know Shrewsbury very well due to all my trips to and from the university at Aberystwyth
HNY G. I don’t think I’ll swap your early morning cold start for my 42 degrees this afternoon. Well maybe I will. Great little station and for the older viewers I just kept thinking of Leslie Neilson. Go forward in 2025!!!!🇦🇺
Great vlog! Never been to this particular station before! I gotta say I like the look of TfW 158's, they remind me of ScotRail's! In terms of the 172, I love the Turbostars, but they are my least favourite of the Turbostar family. I enjoyed this little adventure!
I would make a reference from the Movie Airplane about this visit but it would spoil the video. But the random station is a station that I do like. Do need to head back there one day. Great video G
Enjoyed watching you explore another new place. Shirley looks like one of the nicer parts of the West Midlands. Look forward to seeing where you end up in 2025! You should do another Q&A - maybe get some ideas from your fans of where to go? Happy New Year G.
Another great random train station vlog as always G and happy new year to you & it was great to see you in the Trains Actually vlog where everyone looked to be having a great time🎉
I was routing for Stourbridge junction or Stourbridge town as there my local stations, l was looking forward to your review on my town and our river stour but wasn’t to be😂 Happy new year G Loves Trains.
Must be hundreds of stations beginning with S quite a common letter for place names.The early morning darkness will be slipping back around now by a minute a day and the afternoon light started clawing its way back a few days before the Winter Solstice.Something to do with the Earth's wobble which is why the advance of light doesn't begin on the Solstice.
Fantastic vlog once agtgoid experience to watch. Question out of all the trains you have been on whats the worst and whats the best? I would love to hear your answer thankyou. ❤️🎉
Nice video, love Moor street station, always visit when shopping in Brum, Shirley looks nice as well.
Why the song 😂. Well done with the vlogs. Very interesting and you make them fun ❤
Thanks for the fun vids this year! Wishing you a great 2025!
You "Shirley" found a good way to round off the year! Happy New Year to you and yours, and i hope 2025 is a great one for you!

There did used to be a Cantonese restaurant called "Shirley Temple", unfortunately it closed a few years ago.

Great vlog G. I’ve been past Shirley on the train a number of times but never got out there.
Great video as always.. My local station is Seaham so you could have ended up in my town! (or Sunderland, the next stop down the line)
Happy new year G 🎉 thanks for all the great videos in 24

A lot of Shirley jokes that I didn't know existed, but very pretty place. Lovely park, lovely canal. Very nice! Thanks for sharing!!!
Happy New year G love seeing Shrewsbury featured, used to live there.... Wellington now, that's a nice little station 🚉 you dodged small heath, which was the best 😂😂😂

I absolutely love these random station vlogs and it's great to see you out and about exploring new areas.
Keep up the fantastic work 👏
That pumpkin was very brave, having a swim in the canal this time of year 😂😂😂
Wishing you all the best for 2025
I always get lost going around New Street and the Bullring, fab video as always!
Great video! If you want a nice line with plenty of flowing water, the Avocet line from Exmouth is great there as it follows the Exe estuary :)
Awesome Video G Loves Trains😄😄

Should visit Stratford upon Avon
Lovely video G, Happy New Year!
I would never have even considered getting a train from Crewe to Birmingham via Shrewsbury! The route via the WCML takes half the time.
The destination advert boards outside New Street are fairly new. Can't quite remember but I think that they were put up in early summer 2024, maybe to encourage summer rail travel.
Glad to know that you enjoyed exploring Shirley and all she has to offer.
Quite a nice round Robin walk. I do hope Shirley appreciates your interest!
Happy New Year from up here (poetry?) in Glasgow! 🍹

Thanks Reece and the Turbostars! 😜
@@GLovesTrains i have been on the crew station quite abit years ago crewe is bad now
I would make a reference from the Movie Airplane about this visit but it would spoil the video. But the random station is a station that I do like. Do need to head back there one day. Great video G

Shirley kept leaving her chairs around the canal 😂 what a gorgeous place! 😎
Another Great video G
I love watching your train adventures
Would have been funny if the S had been Sandbach - just about the next stop from Crewe
You should have filmed an interaction with a local, it would have been quite funny watching you try to understand each other...
Shirley does look very pretty indeed can`t help thinking of the old Shakin Stevens song called Shirley :) Lovely vlog Happy New Year G :))
Oooh Wem, my home station!! Happy New Year 🎉
Happy New Year !
Awesome video and really fun exploration! Happy New Year!
I love your random station series, Shirley the draw was fixed.
