Just incase you are unaware. The 755s will only be running on the Fen Line/ West Anglia between Ely and Stanstead Airport. The 745s are 12 carriage, electric only trains based on the same platform as the 755s, these will be running Stansted Express services while the Aventras (Class 720) will be running the West Anglia local trains
@@drstrains2574 rumours are all well and good, but the official line last I heard was all existing trains were leaving GA, whether that be scrappage or cascading.
Nice video I'm surprised Elsenham only gets an hourly service except at peak times. We have a 15 minute frequency to the last train. Even on summer Sundays it's 15 minutes. I've only visited Cambridge station once, long before the extra platforms were built. We had our first Stadler class 777 delivered last night. Hopefully it won't be long before it's out on driver training runs. I have to travel to Liverpool Lime Street, or out to Manchester area to get any variety, as our line is single class.
@@drstrains2574 Yes, sadly. Like their sister classes 313,4 & 5s, all headed for the great sidings in the sky. I remember the 508s when they entered service on suburban services from London Waterloo. I only moved up North recently. Just glad they went with Stadler and not Bombardier or CAF, what with all the problems and delays their trains are having.
Very good Video! Thumbs up!

@@allansheldrake4832 Can you cite a publicly available source for this
That is one of the rumours / suggestions that iheard for the future of the 379's too

Stuart J I have heard that to and to be fair is probably the most realistic option for them
Nice video

Neil Crawford I saw that the first 777 had been delivered. Are they completely replacing the 507 & 508?

Very busy station at Cambridge by the looks of it. Great vid by the way
Yes, it's always busy at Cambridge. Great Northern & Thameslink were not running much that day either. Thank you for your kind comment.
Looks like you had an interesting day out, thanks for sharing
Thank you for the information
Of course, I keep hearing that too. So, we shall all just have to wait and see what the future brings.
