🚄 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 My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were.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
12:31 That’s the HIGHEST tone! 🔊🚆
This cfcggg is a good day for
Quite a variety of rolling stock to be seen at this location - even a steam-hauled trqin! Thanks for uploading.
Glad you enjoyed it Tenterden Town 😃
I must say that steam engine catch was really impresive. 👍
LNWR: The railway company who can't decide what their livery should be.
Having said that, them 319s sound really good
6:16 for example
Watford Junction is a railway station that serves Watford, Hertfordshire. The station is on the West Coast Main Line (WCML), 17 miles 34 chains from London Euston[4] and the Abbey Line, a branch line to St Albans. Journeys to London take between 16 and 52 minutes depending on the service used: shorter times on fast non-stop trains and slower on the stopping Watford DC line services. Trains also run to Clapham Junction and East Croydon via the West London Line. The station is a major hub for local bus services and the connecting station for buses to Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter. The station is located north of a viaduct over the Colne valley and immediately south of Watford Tunnel.
Ooo my, those Summer days will soon be here again and it will be away with the Winter Blues. Epic rush hour spotting session at Watford Junction also unexpected heritage mainline activity :-)
Yes you got my request this is the best video I have ever watched 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂 📯📯📯📯
Great video as always...plenty of variety there 😃⭐️👍🏽🎉🎉
Like a TGV horn at 12:31! Great video!
Best UA-cam channel in the world 😊
Thank you! 😃
Ah great video once again starlife- and also nice catches on the rail charters and the freight, especially the Royal mail class 325!
This video has a bit of everything Daniel 😃 I was very pleased with the variety I got whilst here!
Great video, must of been non stop during rush hour. Can't wait for summer again
Amazing
12:31 hee haw wheeeee haw lol
2:42 could someone not be arsed charging the destination 😂
A great video as per usual. Hope you're well ☺
Brilliant video! I really enjoyed this :)
Excellent railway video as always, Watford Junction is an old favourite of mine.
Mine too! I've been here many times but never filmed it. I'm really glad you found it entertaining 😃
@@StarlifeStudios nice you came to Watford Junction.
Hey dude fantastic video. I love Bahamas she's my favourite steam locomotive. She's got such a rich and lovely history it's hard to pass up on. I subbed like 2 years ago
I’m happy to have filmed your favourite steam loco 😃 In my case, it was just really good timing and I’m always happy to catch a surprise. Thanks for staying subscribed for so long. The channel has changed a fair bit since 2020 but I hope overall you still like what you see in the videos. Thank you 👍🏻⭐️
Great video
Good Catch
Watford Junction, mainly local services stop there and very few expresses. Many charter trains either stop or run past. There is one coming up called 'The Electric Scot' between London Euston and Glasgow Central and return.
Excellent video
Aweosme video
Never been to Watford Junction but I would like to ride on the London Northwestern Railway train to St. Albans Abbey which is mostly operated by Class 350 Desiros. And Class 350/2s and Class 319s are to be replaced by the Class 730 Aventras when these new trains do eventually enter service this year. Overall very good video.
Great video ❤Next time you can try Exeter St Davids 💪
Good work
Great video👍
Thanks 👍 😃
Great weather to film in! That 350 horn is the worst I’ve heard lol, nice video 👍🏻
Thanks DP 👍
Lol
DP how did u get that pfp
Nice vid
Hi again ....
The station does not seem to have changed much since the days I described under the Berkhamsted Station video! Especially on Northbound train views where you can see the entrance to the tunnel?
What happened to the "Aboveground Underground" that used to curve off to the south-west but then rejoined on the way into London?
The tunnel visible is the mainline Watford Tunnel (I believe they are separate from Slows). I believe you are referring to the Croxley BR branch? I don’t think it has been used for several years so it most likely lies redundant. Interestingly, I think the line is still partly used for London Overground trains through Watford High Street, happy to be corrected though 😃
Still amazes me that barely any powerline freighters are in the UK.
Bahamas looked lovely and the 390's at speed aswell as the other vintage diesel loco with the heritage train.
Another brilliant video mate. Have you ever been to Hayle or along the St.Ives Branch line? Not a diverse number of trains but still pretty decent.
When I trainspot, I sadly don’t see much good stuff. If anything all I do see is some freight trains and get some great tones!
Pendolino casually going 125mph
Hs2 overtakes it at 225mph
Pendolino driver: is it me or did I just accidently hit the emergency button
Great variety with the charter trains, the 325s and the 350s that sound like they inhaled a balloon of helium
Also can someone timestamp Bahamas?
Edit: I found it
can tell the 350s are still pretty fast at accelerating
Good
On time for me. This will be interesting and exciting. Where are the chapters?
2:04 that train was never refurbished. It is still in London midland Livery
3:10 first Pendolino at speed
4:55 good job catching the Royal Mail class 325s
Thanks for watching Ben! 😃 There are over 70 information cards in this video and unfortunately, UA-cam has a maximum number of chapters and a word limit for the description. If I could, I honestly would do it.
Maybe 😃 I've never thought of it like that.
Nice video! Can we get a trains and trams at Wimbledon please?
Wimbledon is a tough one because of the fence on the fast line.
Hello! How do you manage to track the trains coming in and out? Because I also spot at Watford Junction.
Hello, I use Realtimetrains for my information. It takes a bit of getting used to but it’s easy to distinguish where everything is going once you’ve used it a few times. Thanks RRMaiNz 🙂
@@StarlifeStudios thanks for the help, I’ll try it out.
I do hope LNWR Keep the 319s, Like seeing them in the Green Livery, they were so good with Thameslink for all those years too. Please keep them in service, all the good traction are being scrapped for Crappy trains, not to say that 350s are Crappy, its mostly other companies that build rubbish compared to the stuff they should've kept. I see old Cars and old Bikes and old vehicles all over the place, and nobody scraps their metal, keep keep keep keep 319s.
Hey Starlife, is Watford Junction in Hertfordshire?
It is indeed!
0:23 wasn't expecting a southern terminating at Milton Keynes? Why did they even put a southern route that literally north i am so confused right now😂🤣
Yeah Southern do go to Milton Keynes, and technically Milton Keynes is in south England, it’s just slightly north of London.
Hi, what camera do you use?
I think he said he uses a Panasonic HC-VX1
Yep! That’s still my go-to camera.
very insane .see you later! StarlifeStudios-
I love the station Watford Junction, But southern can be a bad train
I mean your so luck to see unique and very rare trains like a steam train and mail train and I never get the chance
Does adding rush hour to the title make any difference?
My experience tells me that rush hour videos overall tend to appeal to a larger audience. It also happens to be the times when the most rolling stock variety appears (319s in this case). Thanks David 👍🏻
@@StarlifeStudios 👍🏻
yes in GB gibt es züge the better sind als wie in germany
Ok
12:30 That train sounded like a donkey.
There’s another at 31:50 🙃
@@StarlifeStudios What happened to the 350s horn?
@@romw9121 the 350s had a broken horn
