South West Trains at windy Woking
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Today I present a short film of Woking station in England. I was travelling through Woking in November 2016 and had some time to kill. It was quite windy on this day, so apologies if the video appears a bit more jittery than usual.
Woking is a major station on the South Western Main Line that runs out of London Waterloo. The station sees very frequent train services from and to London Waterloo, many of which are fast services, possibly only additionally calling at Clapham Junction before London Waterloo.
The station has 6 platforms. Platform 1 is for up slow services, platform 2 for up fast services; platform 3 is a bay platform for Waterloo stopping services (not shown in the film), platform 4 is for down fast and platform 5 for down slow services. Platform 6 is not in much use as far as I know.
In the film we see some of the frequent Waterloo-bound trains as well as some platform alterations happening. Announcements are by Celia Drummond and Phil Sayer, but on this day there have been some manual announcements as well.
Enjoy!
Recorded: November 22, 2016.

Great video on trains ☺👍
Waooo very neet and clean places, beautiful views, dreamland. No pollution in atmosphere, gentlemen people's.
I love the class 450 and class 444 yeah buddy it was an Astonishing video
Nice to see the class 159 love them trains
"Please Stand Away From The Edge Of Platform Number 2 The Next Train Is Going To Be Passing At High Speed Please Stand Well Away From The Edge Of Platform 2"
That Was The Train Going At 189MPH
Actually 125mph
More like it was 100mph maximum speed for 450's
Hey nice video. You should film Guildford station too! It is busier than Woking and has numerous different companies serving it. Also 8 platforms I think? There's usually at least 1 train in all the time.
Stand away from the edge of platform 2 the approaching train is not Scheduled to stop at this station. 0:13
Great video!
Hi, Luftschlange; many thanks for your upload. Great video.
A couple of points - it's interesting to see that the platform train display is perfectly readable on your video, whereas many other uploads on RUclips have that annoying jitter effect caused by the phase shift or frame frequency discrepancy between the display unit and the uploader's camera. Well done.
When is it NOT windy at Woking station? lol Whenever I've waited for a train there it's ALWAYS been bl**dy cold and windy, even in summer!
Class 450 At High Speed! Wow
I used to live in Woking when I was 19-20. Used to "escape" what I saw as the worst town in England to Waterloo whenever I could. It only cost me a tenner or something ridiculous.
This was in the last days of the "slammers", miserable, grotty, smelly - I loved them.
Trust me there's shittier places than Wokin g
444028, 1A36 11:44 from Alton
12:22 at Platform 2 to London Waterloo
Nice video and if you want to compare South West trains with NYC commuter rail its going to be Metro North and LIRR because both Metro North and Long Island Railroad are electrified to 750v dc third rail top contact for Long Island Railroad but bottom contact for Metro North. Class 444 is equal to LIRR & Metro North M7s since they replaced older trains in the class 444 its the Class 412 & 414 but m7 replaced the M1 for LIRR and Metro North
Remember guys see it, say it, sorted
Awesome
I love the trains! What model are they?
They are lovely, indeed. The blue electric ones are Class 450, the white electric ones are Class 444. Both are part of the Siemens Desiro family of trains. The diesel unit at 6:09 is a Class 159 train. Wikipedia has more information on any of these.
Luftschlange cool! How many people where there when you were filming? Was it busy or almost empty?
It wasn’t too busy, I was there around noon on a weekday, so most people were already at work. I guess you can get an impression of how busy it was from the scenes which show more of the platform.
Reino Hornson I love the trains too.
Great video
U.K. Trains
NathTrains add me,,
NathTrains I'm happy you liked the video.
What was the fast train that passed through platform 4 that was not in view when the class 159 train was in the station?
0:23 South West trains service class 450 Gas GAS GAS
One question: What is that "twizzling" noise some of those MU electrics make when they brake for a stop and when they accelerate?
+TheChicagoL That is the DC inverter for the traction motors.
Luftschlange I find this sound oddly satisfying for some reason.
Is there an overhead power configuration of the 444
I believe there is not, however, there is one of the 450, the class 350.
Luftschlange ok thanks
