  • An excellent afternoons visit to the always busy station of Didcot Parkway on the Great Western Mainline where we see plenty of services from Great Western Railway, Cross Country and plenty of freight passing through from Freightliner and DB Schenker.
    This is the first of a 2 part film here, plenty of tones are captured during the course of the video as well as an absolutely stunning class 70 thundering along the Oxford branch towards London. We also catch a DB Schenker class 60 trundling through platform 3 with a heavy loaded train of fuel tanks.
    Filming with me during part 1 was KTV Videos, I highly recommend his channel he has some amazing content for you all to watch.
    Thank you all very much for watching it is greatly appreciated, as ever if you have any trackside locations or stations that you would like to see filmed at then please do let me know and I shall endeavor to my very best to getting around to doing them for you.
    Stay tuned for part 2.

    A brilliant video, a huge variety at Didcot. High speed, freight, stopping services, it has the lot. Also what is your opinion on the 220/221 Voyager/Super Voyager? It's a very controversial train which I've been on a few times, but I was wondering what you thought of them

    • @Tornado922
      @Tornado922  9 лет назад

      I've always found the voyagers to be very comfortable to travel on for long and short journeys

    • @thomasmahoney4991
      @thomasmahoney4991 9 лет назад

      ***** my family seems to hate them but they don't seem to be too bad. It is a bit of a stupid idea though how on the one I was on the blinds covered the whole window so you'd have to ask the person in front or behind you if they minded having them up/down

  • @reecekeenan1202
    @reecekeenan1202 8 лет назад

    the gwr hsts that turn of at didcot are going to Penzance same as the xc trains

    • @danielmartin4516
      @danielmartin4516 8 лет назад +1

      You wrong there the hsts that turn off go to Oxford and Worcester shrub hill the ones going to Cheltenham Swansea Plymouth and Penzance go through and stop at the station

    how can you tell a xc train buy it's Number if it's a voygar or a super voygar

    • @Tornado922
      @Tornado922  8 лет назад

      The best way I can tell is by the length of the train, voyagers are 4 cars and super voyagers are 5 cars
