Great Northern services (387s) were not running between London and Cambridge due to defective track at Ely.

🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station.
My apologies, some of you may have received a notification of this video early this morning by mistake.
That's OK
No worries
Eh whatever it’s fine
No Worres, also great video ⭐
@@WaschiXtreme thanks for telling us no worries
Great video as always! Those 717's look nice and that 82 with the intercity-esque livery looked great too
Thanks Inky Squid, I think the 717s would look better with some yellow so they resemble the 700s. I don't really like either desiros because of the BR-stock they replaced. The DVTs do look good 😃
It's not a Class 82
@@ben.taylor It is a class 82, none of the 91s in the video had the IC livery
Excellent video! (I may not have watched it yet but Ik it’s gonna be a rlly good one)
Stella of a video as always. A little bit of nostalgia happening with InterCity Swallow 225's making a return. Nice surprise of the pairing of class 802 for Hull Trains :-)
Welham Green railway station serves the village of Welham Green in Hertfordshire, England. It is 15 miles 50 chains measured from King's Cross on the East Coast Main Line.
Welham Green is just south of the scene of the Hatfield rail crash in 2000 and was initially identified in BBC broadcasts as the location of the accident.
absolutely fantastic!
Thanks for your support Southern Rex!
Great video as always👍
Great collection of different trains...
Many thanks! 👍
Excellent railway video
Thank you very much Imperialist! 😃
29:36 heart rate mustve gone up a notch seeing them fellas on your platform😂
A little! Unfortunately, I talk to them a lot but it rarely leads to anything - apparently videoing trains the day after the Queen passed away is suspicious 🤷🏼♂️ I feel bad because a lot of the time they travel a long way just to see me 🤣
@@StarlifeStudios 😂I guess some of the things we can be doing at the end of a platform with cameras and a bag filled with chargers and stuff can look suspicious but there we go!! Atleast they get a bit of mileage in the countryside
Nice view.💕
What a video absolutely excellent
Glad you enjoyed it. Have a superb day!
@@StarlifeStudios you too ⭐
Brilliant video 😄
Cool seeing the disruption events!
Great video
Thanks Arnold! 😃
Your the best train watcher but I am a bit into this but hurricanes are better!(no offense)
Awesome
I'm always surprised thet there is so much going on at places I've never heard of, but then I don't get out much...
I always look at these videos to see if I can see myself driving anything 😂. I sign 387's, 700's and 717's
I'm sure I've filmed you at some point Jimmy, I'm always about! 😃
@@StarlifeStudios always make sure I oblige and sound both tones 😂
@@jimmygreaves1 Thank you! The desiro city tones are funny, they sound more like a child's toy than a whistle! Heres another for you to examine: ua-cam.com/video/CYuCOjomV4A/v-deo.htmlsi=n4cC51ZlhCmW8_ME
@@StarlifeStudios we're not allowed to sound the depot horns anymore as well. Get a bollocking if they do a download
@@jimmygreaves1 That's strange, I always thought the depot whistle was designed for depot and trainspotters! 😂I wonder what the disadvantage is. I don't remember the rule book mentioning use of Depot Tone outside of depots.. I suppose you've got to give the full horn then!
any plans for GWR soon? miss seeing them green 387s and 800s 🙂
I don't currently have any GWR videos recorded but I hope to within the next few weeks. Was the Reading West video not enough? It certainly was for me 😂
GWR should of kept the Class 387/3s that GWR would of used them on Reading-Newbury shuttle. And Great Northern to inherit the Class 379s to be used on KX-Cambridge & King's Lynn routes.
@@StarlifeStudios fair enough 😆 it was a great vid
Good stuff. I'm just wondering, what sort of camer/camcorder do you use to record as I'm looking at upgrading my own stuff in the new year.
1:36 wow, I’m surprised, these 387s rarely go to Peterborough nowadays
I believe there are only two in the morning and two in the evening now. They both stable at Peterborough Nene Sidings overnight. All other services are 700s.
@@StarlifeStudios oh okay, I’m so used to seeing them fly through non stop to Cambridge or sometimes doing the slow thameslink KX to Cambridge
This looks exactly like faymere from SCR
I noticed that too 😅
20:57 Wow. 9Y86's running 10 minutes late
Can you do a video of Ashford international if that's ok
5:26 beautiful livery
Great ECML video action 😎🎉👍🏽 What’s with the green stripe on just 1 coach of those Grand Central 180’s, when the rest are orange? 👀🤔 Something to fo with the environment no doubt? 🤔
You are correct EJC. That one coach is part the LNG conversion trial which uses both LNG and Diesel to be more efficient. Not sure if its a success but it hasnt caught fire yet! 😃
@@StarlifeStudios ah I thought it would be something like that 🤔👀 Cheers for confirming that 😀👍🏽
@@StarlifeStudios saw that train at york myself :)
Beautiful as always, thanks! Why is there so much less freight traffic on the ECML? (in comparison to the WCML)
Thanks for your kind comments. I believe its mostly due to pathing constraints (south of peterborough adnd Welwyn North are double track). The West Coast also has better links to most freight terminals (like Hams Hall, Trafford Park etc.)
@@StarlifeStudios That makes sense, thank you! :-)
Great video! Could we see a WCML one next?
I can guarantee a West Coast video on the 8th Jan.
The Class 717 does look like a spaceship even though they do look really nice. And Siemens could of manufactured the Class 7xx Desiro City to replace the Class 455 & Class 313 used on Southern suburban services and Southern "Coastway" routes.
And Great Northern could of inherited the Class 379s to be used on King’s Cross-Cambridge & King’s Lynn services. Whilst the Class 387/1 & 387/3s would be used on KX-Peterborough service.
I watched the one at midnight last night and I commented on it
You were very quick with that one RailLife!
It’s a shame the traction on the ecml has got so much worse than it used to be. It will be even worse when the 91s retire! On that note does anyone know when they’re scheduled to be retired?
Nothing confirmed on the 91s, but, LNER have been avoiding expensive exams for the locos for a few months. I wouldn’t expect these to be around for many more years (or even months). Given the recent culling for stock by the DfT, the 91s could become victims.
@@StarlifeStudios I don’t understand why they’d need to scrap electric locos that work really well.
Ok interesting. I’ll have to go out and travel on some before they disappear for good then!
180104 from Sunderland made it far, i expected it to break down not long after it left.
At 3:49 why does Thameslink go to Sevenoaks from Welwyn garden city
The Sevenoaks service only goes as far north as Blackfriars. In the peak hours its extended to Welwyn
Great Video as always! May I ask, what camera do you use? The quality is brilliant on it!
Hello, I use a Panasonic HC VX1. Hope this helps.
Quite a lot of desiro cities
Yep.. I was hoping for a bit of variety but the 387s weren't running on this day.

Great video
