A cold January afternoon at Milton Keynes Central Station. MKC is always a good place to do some filming on the WCML, plenty of Freight around and a good mixture of stopping and non-stop Virgin services. There were a few issues this day with a track circuit failure just South of the station on the Up Fast line. Meaning that all London bound non-stop services were rerouted onto the Up Slow line in an attempt at minimising delays in the affected area on the up fast. However all stopping London bound services were kept on the Up Fast line (Platform 4) because stopping at a red signal will have minimal effect on these services anyway. So you'd got Pendolino's coming and going in all directions basically. Platform 6, 4 & 1. A few nice surprises thrown into the mix as well, the NMT HST seen crawling along the Up Fast line just about to enter the problematic area and a pair of new Great Western class 387's. Which are doing 110mph test runs up & down the WCML between Wembley & Crewe. However their progress was hampered by the track circuit failure on the Up Fast.
INCLUDES:
Virgin Pendolino's & Voyagers, London Midland 350's, Freightliner class 66 (66525) & class 90 (90045), DRS class 66 (66303), GBRF class 66 (66768)
And Great Western 387's (387140 + 141) & NMT HST 43062 + 43013.
AND Surprise surprise not a Southern 377 in sight! Almost forgot what they look like in Milton Keynes now... Quite ridiculous.
Check out the other video taken this day in Cheddington. (Again don't expect to see any Southern in that either...)
Thanks for watching

Great video that first 66 was awesome never seen one at full power !!
Nice video dude, well done. Was a bonus seeing London bound Pendolinos running on the slow line plus the Electrostar test run you saw. :)
Desiro360 I mm
Went to that location 3 yes ago. Geez!! Even the freighters are moving quick!!
I once got a train from Stoke-On-Trent to London Euston. Here's the announcement. "The b=next train to arrive at platform 2 will be the 14:12 Virgin Trains service, To: London Euston. Calling at London Euston only". It was a Class 390 (My all time favourite at the time + still is)
The 390's do what they were built for, but give me an 86 or 87 and a rake of mark 3 coaches any day of the week.
Brilliant video, It was cool to see those 387s on their test runs!
very good video
Must have been freezing. I might just live here. Loved the flying Banana.
Mmm
incredible film Matthew, really enjoyed this, your filming is of the highest class

I was watching this while i was on virgin train to the euston and passed milton keyens
Excellent video and thanks for anticipating my question at the end. I was going to ask why the Euston bound Pendo's were using platform 1 instead of 4.

@@stuad70 that doesn't sound good at all
Nice. Thanks for sharing!!!:):):)
Brilliant film mate, keep it up :)
Very good :-). I like it :-).
Good vid!
20:39 GWR Class 387 on testing
TrainNutter MC thx
TrainNutter why is GWR going to run services from paddington to milton keynes and maybe beyond
They are not going to. The GWML has electrification only as far as Hays & Harlington. They were testing their new trains on the WCML (Longer distances for higher speed testing).
TrainNutter ah ha ok
brilliant video!!! i think ive been there to do trainspotting on video!! its a good staition to record dont you think??
Any chance of recording at a higher framerate? For trains, I personally think the optimal frame rate is 30 fps or higher. Your videos are fantastic but only appear to be in 25 fps. Correct me if I am wrong and I'm not trying to be rude either. I love your videos:)
How long were you there? At least more than an hour as that's how frequent southern is from there.
They've been on strike, so maybe that's why
As far as I'm aware Southern have dropped their service to Milton Keynes because of the strike action causing them to use a new timetable which removed this service.
They did bring the Milton Keynes service back in November I think it was when they brought back their full timetable but yes with the latest strikes even on non strike days they've taken it out
@@Happy_cookieSouthern have axed the East Croydon to Milton Keynes Central service in the May 2022 timetable change
That train at 7:15 had a bad wheel.
How fast are freight trains in UK and London Midland
London Midland class 350's can go up to 110mph. Freight trains depends on what locomotive is hauling, usually 75mph or possibly 90.
Hey look, train spotting at Milk & Beans
Great video. Do you know when the overhead wires came to the railway in this area. Cheers, Peter. USA.
I believe it was during the 60's. I wouldn't like to guess the exact year, but I'd say 60's
Thanks. I thought is was newer. Cheers.
Where will you be going for your 50k sub special? You're not far from 50k, only 2,800 subs to go!
