Hi jarred do you agree the midland mainline is not the same now that the 700s have fully taken over and the HSTS leaving on Sunday everything is getting replaced
I have a couple questions about ticket purchasing for commuter trains in England (most likely because I live in the U.S): If you were to be someone who takes the train almost every day of the week, would a railcard be the best way to go? And how do those go, exactly? Do you put money onto the card, or is it like a membership where you renew it every month/year etc.?
If you were to take the train every day and your ages 16-25 then we have this card called the 16-25 railcard that gives you 30% off your rail travel. Other than that our UK rail network is still very expensive so theres no real cheap way to get around unless you book your tickets online. If you were to buy them upfront they would be more expensive. Online booking has always been the best way to get train tickets here. Again if your above a certain age I cant remember the exact number, I think it's over 60 then you get 30% off. It's a card you renew every year for the cost of £30. I don't know what that would be in dollars. I hope that helps
I love the screaming HST reminds me of bedford. Great vid as ever Jarred
I love the MML for that very reason
Though it is a shame I didn't get to catch you for this station, a great video. Definitely going to have to go to St Albans!

What's your opinion on the DC Pulsing on the 319 as soon as it leaves the staion. For me, I love them :)

Well that wont be for a few years but when I do start it I'll be sure to let you know
Same, it's also my local line

And how do those go, exactly? Do you put money onto the card, or is it like a membership where you renew it every month/year etc.?
And also, if you were to be someone who takes the train once a week, would you purchase an individual ticket every time?

Alright, thanks. Just wanted to get to know about UK rail travel
I've seen 700003 but it was standing there
Have you any plans to visit any locations that have a lot of freight traffic in the near future?
Ill be going back to Barnetby sometime next year
Can you go back to St Albans City
Have you noticed that he class 377 has a new logo
Yeah they seem to be going for a solid dark colour on those units
You have to hear deleyed when filming Thameslink trains
It's only standard lol
Long live the HSTs!
Amen to that
The class 700 im similar than the new class 707 running on southwesternrailway
They were designed by the same company
But now the class 319 has great AC motor sounds but now there gone
You'll find them running up north now
Its not Tames its Tems lol
I'll never get that right lol
