Merseyrail Trains September 2023

On Wednesday the 6th of September 2023, I travelled to Merseyside to capture footage of Merseyrail Class 507 and 508 EMUs in operation, prior to their withdrawal by 777s. Since my last visit in January this year, the 777s have been deployed onto the Kirkby and Ormskirk Lines and on the day we visited, they were performing their first week in service on the New Brighton and West Kirkby branches. Got to make the most of the old trains, before they are retired.

The 777s are so fast out of the gate

Yeah. Their rate of acceleration is very impressive.
