🚄 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 My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were.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. - Авто та транспорт
OK now this is definitely cool :D
Thameslink And EMR
I'm gonna recommend you trainspotting at Purley Oaks Surrey not because it's my local station, because although it has four platforms with two closed for stopping trains, you can see a variety of passing trains and a lot of class 455 horns ( their classic) I go there for trainspotting alot. Thanks for going there
Can't wait to see what's in store here! That was brilliant, especially the 43274 horn!
West Hampstead Thameslink is a National Rail station on the Midland Main Line and is served by Thameslink trains as part of the Thameslink route between Kentish Town and Cricklewood. The station is in Travelcard Zone 2.
ooo
More information: It is used for services to St Albans City, Luton, Bedford, London St Pancras International, Croydon, Gatwick Airport, Brighton, Sutton, Greenwich and Rainham
Great video mate. Thameslink don't manage the station and no 222/1s yet
Lovely stuff as ever. And always nice to see the 700’s whizzing through at pace - I see them frequently but only rattling through London/Greenwich at a snail’s pace. Not far off 5K subs now - great to see you still going so well!
Hello! It’s been a while since I’ve seen you around. I think the 700s are pretty boring compared to what they replaced but it was necessary to improve the thameslink network. The channel is doing really great and I’m really excited to see how it goes. Hopefully we’ll hit 5K by Christmas, that would be awesome!
@@StarlifeStudios Saturday 9th October, I went to Hayes which is actually in Greater London (Zone 5). Began from London Cannon Street. Calling stops include New Cross, Lewisham (busy station including Docklands Light Railway) and Elmers End (Croydon Tramlink stops at the station, saw one going to Wimbledon. A big Tesco store is located near the railway). On the return, another train service avoided Lewisham and New Cross. It was going to London Charing Cross.
I’ve been there when I had my trip elsewhere
4:05 Did the ghost of a past employee just walk onto the platform?
Doesn't look like a Ghost to me! 😃
Where?
17:39 it’s disappointing that somebody did that. But great job 👏
The spotters' reaction at 26:00 is priceless. They are right to be that excited... those classic beauties, the diesel-operated HSTs and Voyagers never get old... even though the new British rolling stock includes so many beauties, it will be sad to see these retire.
Amazing video as always. You're one of my favourites. Greetings from Portugal (and its CP).
I remember hearing that when filming and smiling to myself. When the final HST came through, everyone started clapping and chanting, very sad but amusing! Thank you for your kind comments Jorge. I really appreciate the time that you've taken to write your comment, UA-cam is all about motivation and your comments really help me to keep going outside and doing it! 😃
@@StarlifeStudios you're welcome! It's the bare minimum I can do to pay for your amazing posts. Keep it up! :)
Another Smashing One bud,Gotta Love the Midland Mainline Especially When It’s a Video By You :)
Great railway video again, nice choice in filming at West Hampstead Thameslink.
Thanks Imperialist. I like this station, the sighting isnt the best but its good for capturing everything 😃
Great video
Cracking MML action, and great to see the TnT 66s, even running late as they were. Keep the vids coming!
Thanks Starman, If they weren't late, I wouldn't have seen them! 😃 I have uploads planned every week well into next year!
@@StarlifeStudios Fantastic! Hope to see you back at Bedford some time.
Oooo yes!! I need to get back there maybe some freight as well. Sounds good to me 😃
@@StarlifeStudios 👍👍👍
Brilliant video mate. First class information and very interesting 👍🏻
Thanks a ton Ben! 😃
Love the video quality! Great work
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Loved seeing the purple EWR
Lovely video! 👍🏻
Thanks as always David 😃
Going to West Hampstead Station, it has come to be one of my most well loved for its division between the three services, but which will always bother me at the same time :)
So many 700s, and gotta live those HSTs
This video includes just a THIRD of the class 700 fleet. It’s hard to understate just how massive the Class 700 fleet has become. Thanks Lord Everything 😃
@@StarlifeStudios yeah there is like 110 now lol, it's huge
Very nice, can you do Ashford International at one point?
I would like to as soon as HS1 Eurostar’s return to regular traffic. The timetable currently doesn’t make it very easy to capture them. Thanks 😃
@@StarlifeStudios hopefully soon
I have been impressed by the great amount of 12-coaches-trains and the "shortest" ones have got 8. It is a striking difference than in the 90-ies, when EMU usually had got 4 coaches and only few had got 8. I must admit that there has been since an increasing number of passengers
Thameslink (when it runs correctly) is actually a really good service. As you said, the current 700 trains are a world away from the single 319s that used to operate some of these services. When travelling through London, I often choose Thameslink over the Underground just for the air conditioning (especially in summer!) Thanks so much for watching and commenting anisocoro 😃⭐️
Love the MML
Ooh looks good
Please do potters bar it’ll make my day :)
Its on my list for a visit this year :)
The EMR Class 222 Meridian which were operated on the Corby service has been replaced by the Class 360/1 Desiro cascaded from Greater Anglia. Maybe EMR could operate a semi-fast service between St. Pancras and Corby with stops including Kentish Town, West Hampstead Thameslink, St. Albans City, Luton Airport Parkway, Luton, Bedford, Wellingborough, Kettering and Corby.
What would be the point Thameslink stopping at Kentish Town, St Albans and West Hampstead?
Cool video
Thanks again Dan! 😃
Good place to film. You can see all 6 tracks!
Trains I expected: Thameslink 700s, EMR 222s, 180s, and HSTs. They will dominate the video
5:14 Palindrome and James Bond gag.
If there are 35 Thameslink Trains, could 700123 be in this video? That's my favorite one.
Some trains have serious graffiti!
I don’t think 700123 or 700111 were in this video. Just think, back in 2016, all those 700s were 319s, 387s and 377s instead!
700043 gave you about 20 tones!
Star Life studio: I really enjoy watching your trainspotting videos⭐☺️.
I enjoy your recent video?
I would like to see trainspotting at Abbeywood station or Dartford?
Thanks for your support Donovan 😃 I have previously considered both of those. I have had issues with Southeastern staff at Dartford but I intend to try and retry later this year. Abbeywood has a really awkward platform layout so its unlikely I'll visit this one soon.
@@StarlifeStudios it's all right! I really enjoy all of your videos ❤️.
If not, Dartford or Abbywood Maybe Red Hill? Tonbridge or Ashford international
(Maybe) 😎⭐🤔
3:59
Are there headcode 1 Thameslink or only 9 and 2?
I was recently observing that Headcode 9 are used only by 700s.If you want to see it by yourself,see a video at Blackfriars (past VS present)
@@TheArkamedBat there are headcode 2 Thameslink class 700 for some routes
@@plaggomg22yt I only spotted 1 of these in that video,and it was in 2016
I believe that anything operating directly out of London Blackfriars via Denmark Hill are 2 Headcodes.
@@StarlifeStudios False.Because I saw the Past & Present video at London Blackfriars and a train on Blackfriars to Sevenoaks service had Headcode 9.Then I went to the On Rails app and it showed that was going through Denmark Hill
How do you know if there are early or late?
Your 1st Visit To West Hampstead Thameslink Was In 2018
Second time for West Hampstead TL but with different cameras! 👍
@@StarlifeStudios Yes
Very cool video. By the way, do you have to have long trips from where you live for trainspotting? Or you have lots of houses? 😂
I wish I had lots of houses!! The honest answer is that a lot of these trips involve extremely long days or precisely planned to make use of the time. I usually drive to all my locations except very long trips (like northern england). I target two videos per filming day but sometimes (like on the day I did Milton Keynes) I manage four! (although I'm shattered at the end of it) 😃
Plz fo ts at mill hill broadway or the rl berrilly kentish town
26:00 that was a close one!
Ive seen thameslink and emr
8:22 WTF? A stopping Thameslink on fast line
That's a normal stop for Bedford - Brighton service.
@@PrinceGuaNa But they should go on slow lines, not fast
Have you got any plans to go To Manc Piccadilly
Oh yes 😃
@@StarlifeStudios Manchester Piccadilly is a good station.
