Seven through-fare and only Four Bays, must have been huge back then, a serious player. Gorgeous day and the Ladies were singing beautifully, great sounds. 88010 wow, I want one! The 55's were nice to see and hear, some serious workhorses there. That 66 pulling through was no joke. Haha, teleportation aside @ 12:26 - 12:27 awesome film, thanks again! B.P.
@@Tornado922 Yeah, it would be nice to see. I guess Train Sims and Scale Worlds are as close as we will get, next to Pics. A great job putting the vision in my head with your history though, my mind is still kickin'! B.P.
You're more than welcome. I know that it's not for everyone and I don't expect everyone to read through it all but I like to give these bits of history out as I know some people find it fascinating
I wouldn't ridicule you Jarred as i find all your clips fascinating to watch. Everyone makes mistakes and i can't very well scold you for that given with some of your clips throw up some unexpected and very exciting bonuses I.E Class 37's
I never knew that the line to Hazel Grove was electrified, learn something new every day I guess, keep up the good work Jarred and a thumbs up from me as always
Another cracking video loved the bit with the 319 to hazel grove but you could not remember at first also loved the moment about the 16:04 to Glasgow was not virgin trains and was a trans pennine Express keep up the great work
I just can’t express, how much I hate those Pacers... Just glad to live further down the WCML and don’t have to use them regularly... As always: great video!
As you didn't mention it, I'll stick a plug in for the Preston Dock steam railway, which operates at weekends on a spur from the main station, that serves a tar distillery during the week. The last I heard, they were trying to get access to a purpose-built platform AT Preston, to reduce the car parking needs, and increase footfall at the museum. If I recall, they only need to go another 100 mtrs or so from their present limit.
I went to Preston in mid April, it was even better because there was workers so the trains would give 2 and 3 tones every time they passed and it was glorious, enjoy Glasgow, you get quite a few VT’s every hour, CX and TPE come every few hours, try do it around 1700-1930 as you get a few trains and a lot of VT’s come there around that time, then head to the depots after, also don’t forget the scotrail services, there’s more than Edinburgh I believe :D nice video anyway...
The real reason you perched at the south end of platform 3 was to get close to the 142's!The 158909 saga was that it was heavily delayed on it's previous journey from Barrow to Manchester Airport due to overcrowding and it was 30 late when I alighted at Oxford Road having squeezed on at Silverdale. It then ran non stop from Piccadilly when it should have made intermediate stops. As a result, it would have probably arrived at the Airport after it's booked departure time for it's next journey and that's why it was late. The overcrowding was between Barrow and Lancaster on it's previous journey!Enjoy Glasgow Central when you go. It's a fabulous station.
I was totally perched down that end of the world for that very reason hahaha, I cant believe how bad the disruption was getting for that service. Hopefully your journey wasn't to bad in the end.
Got a seat at Lancaster thanks. Having had 142's as part of the North West rail scene for close on 35 years, there may be a masochist in me somewhere that actually misses them when they go?
Have you ever tried Motherwell I was there visiting a family member and I saw two 68’s as I was wateing for my train bouth 68’s where for in scotrail livery
Tornado922 ahh the memories, at Motherwell I was coming home from my sisters judo competition I was around 4 at the time, and I seen my first passing voyager I believe then a pendolino passed and from my memory I swear I almost died XD
Nice job...150s do look good without the corridor attachment 195120 nice unit and livery is cool ahhh my containers on an 8 8 noice ....Do Voyagers not work this line? like the V2`s
Some of the London Euston - Glasgow Central or Edinburgh via Birmingham are worked by 221's, either single or in pairs. There is also a weekday Euston - Blackpool North 221 in the evening peak and a couple of daily workings to Shrewsbury via Birmingham. Most Virgin 221's though work from Euston to Chester with some continuing to Holyhead and one to Wrexham.
The Virgin Trains 221s mainly work services to and from Chester, Holyhead and other places in the North Wales area where the 390s cannot go to, however, some 221s work Blackpool North services and Glasgow Central services via Birmingham New Street. Hope that explains it.
Hi guys another film that encourages you to watch it until the end because of all the extra details that are shared which would not be available on those films without voiceovers and that includes those that make an effort and at least put an overlay caption but as good, film wise, these others are, l very rarely watch them to completion as they are too boring
The X means there is a fault with the coupling on that end of the train and means that it shouldn't connect to another unit with that coupling. Means that the unit can still stay in service until it returns to the depot and is worked on.
@@Queen_Anna_of_Arendelle It's cool. Glad you stuck it through, most don't, they prefer easier routes. At least now you can let your mind chill a bit, then back to work. Stay on point, life is always trying to stop you from reaching your goals, so push always. Stay safe and enjoy! B.P.

I would have loved top have seem this station back in the glory days!!

Great info in the description again. As I've said before thanks for taking the trouble to give us some history of the station.
You're more than welcome. I know that it's not for everyone and I don't expect everyone to read through it all but I like to give these bits of history out as I know some people find it fascinating
I wouldn't ridicule you Jarred as i find all your clips fascinating to watch. Everyone makes mistakes and i can't very well scold you for that given with some of your clips throw up some unexpected and very exciting bonuses I.E Class 37's
I welcome the ridicule where needed hahaha, I always seem to catch something different at every station I go to
Been to Preston a few times. The last time i went was october 2017 on a vt 390 to Edinburgh and i came back on a new livery vt too
It's a pretty good station to come to, there's always something good here
I never knew that the line to Hazel Grove was electrified, learn something new every day I guess, keep up the good work Jarred and a thumbs up from me as always
Well if I can somehow offer educational films I shall keep them going haha
Another cracking video loved the bit with the 319 to hazel grove but you could not remember at first also loved the moment about the 16:04 to Glasgow was not virgin trains and was a trans pennine Express keep up the great work
thanks very much, there is always going to be plenty of errors made in my films haha, no film would be complete without the traditional cockup
Great video as always.Great to see the pacer, keep up the great work.
T.T.P.F.
Thanks very much, I know you have a soft spot for them ;)
I just can’t express, how much I hate those Pacers... Just glad to live further down the WCML and don’t have to use them regularly...
As always: great video!
Well they are gradually on their way out but I certainly wouldn't want to travel on them for any distance

hi Gerard
The X means there is a fault with the coupling on that end of the train and means that it shouldn't connect to another unit with that coupling. Means that the unit can still stay in service until it returns to the depot and is worked on.
What he said ^_^
