- First ever visit to Slough. Very busy station indeed with a fine mixture of workings with Hanson, EWS, Schenker, Freightliner, FGW units, 180's and HST's. We arrived at 10.15 and departed at 14.05. Very pleased with the time out. Friendly staff, choice of food and drink, toilets. NOTE. I SAY ")!$ and it's 2015. lol
Merry Christmas Keith and lady June and a happy new year
Excellent selection of freight workings in the second half of the video. Nice to see two Class 59's and a Colas 60 making an appearance. Lovely station environment. Plus another perfect day weather you had.
HomeMoviePerson Many thanks Hayden
Great video, reminded of the days I was lucky enough to grow up on Lodge Farm near Abbots Ripton, Huntingdon, about 20 yards from the ECML and under the flight path of RAF Alconbury. I amazed my friends at school by being able to recognise a HST or a Phantom F4 just by the sound they made....boyhood dreams indeed!
Nick Annies Lovely mate.. Memories of yesteryear are valuable to our on going life
Great Video Keith,Lots of variety,Interesting Station and a Track Machine.Thank you.
Derek Ayriss They follow me.. Another today at Wellingborough....Cheers
I'm not a train spotter but have lived in Slough all my life. Fascinating video btw all trains at platform/ bay 1 only go to Windsor for the Castle. Queen Victoria had the spur built especially to make it easier to get home 😀. Glad you had such a great day but please keep your good lady June warm !!
Appreciate your comment and information. Very interesting. Thank you
Great video Smile. I was at West Drayton on the same day although a bit later, from about 1230 - 1530. Great amount of freight with these diversions on, although they end Friday I believe. Once again, great footage.
HSTSammer Very many thanks mate.. Good to take advantage of the diversions.. Hope to go Banbury next week for 68's
Very good selection there Keith, certainly kept you busy! Glad to see there ended up being a decent amount of freight, and pleased you saw two Mendip Class 59's - and the shot from the train of Colas 60085 worked out very nicely :-) Things should be back to normal on the Banbury route next week, so let's see if we get some Class 68's on Chiltern workings in the daytime..............
MrDeltic15 Thanks Darren.. Yes Banbury next week hopefully. Got a real stinker of a nose dripping cold and sore throat at the moment... YUK
Hi Keith, great video. Always enjoy your filming. I had no idea that was you on the station that day. I am a dispatcher at Slough and was working platform 1&2 that day. I saw you filming but didn't know it was you until I watched this video. All the best.
Kris Nelson Thanks a lot mate.. Only went co's of the diverts. Loved it very much
Do you still work at Slough train station?
We always used to call Slough....'sluff' as a joke back in the 90's....Haven't been there for Years....Some pretty good movements Keith. Great video...Steve.
***** Yes we were very pleased with the four hours and at was warm as well.
Cracking day out dad, 59's, 66623 with de brand, 66177 silver roofed, and much more! Love the boo mum does! Colas tug footage very nice way to end a perfect day for you both
swagstar327 - football, vlogs and more Thanks very much David. Don't think it will be as busy without the diverts.
Nice one Keith, I stayed in the hotel overlooking the station this weekend. I had great view and as your video showed, there was plenty of action.
Timsvideochannel1 Very good. I take it that your room overlooked the railway/
SMILEVIDEOTRAINS Yes our room had a very good view of the station, I did take some video, but not enough to make a feature, although I may include some of it as part of a study of the GWR.
Great video there.
Peter Garrett Thank you Peter
Was planning a visit here myself but due to cold weather and wind I always put it off. Decided I will hit the GWR next week.
