- An excellent morning spent at Stafford on the West Coast Mainline where we see plenty of services from Cross Country, Avanti West Coast, London Northwestern Railway and freight from DB Cargo UK, GBRF, DRS and Freightliner.
The bulk of the freight can be found towards the later end of the film.
Stafford station is a fairly large station and is used as a junction station for traffic travelling all over the country. Services from this station serve Manchester, Liverpool, Crewe and stations to the South of England. There are two lines meeting at this station, the main branch of the West Coast Mainline that goes via the Trent Valley and the second section that takes the line through the heart of Birmingham which allows for greater connections from Birmingham New Street.
The station was opened by the Grand Junction Railway in 1837. This was the first station to be built on the site, however it soon became inadequate because of the amount of passengers and trains using the station which then meant that a second station was built in 1844 which was then superseded by another station in 1862. Eventually all three getting replaced by the current station in 1962 to follow the modernisation of the West Coast Mainline.
The second part will be out in a few days and has a great variety of traffic coming through.

Wonderful to have you back doing what you do best. The pride livery on 390119 is fantastic, my highlight of this part by far. Credit to avanti where its due!!
Thank you kindly! It certainly is a stand out livery!
Good to see you spotting at railway stations again

@@Tornado922 doesn’t it? I was out on Saturday riding the trains and it just felt good to be back out there

Ohhh it sure is great to see you back making your rail videos. I was able to watch your vids during the recent lockdown, and have enjoyed them a lot. Your humour cheered me up too. Thanks as always ☺️
Thanks very much bud, it feels so good to be back getting some films done :) I'm glad you have been enjoying them during the lockdown :) I hope you're keeping well bud
Great to see Stafford again, and even better to see 390119 there. Looking forward to the year
Thanks very much, hopefully I can do a lot this year!
So nice to have this back! Really enjoying watching. :)
Brilliant video!
Thanks very much :)
Only took 10 minutes to lose the plot! Great to have you back young man. Hopefully life will improve and we'll enjoy more of the Tornado Trains.
To be honest I'm surprised I even lasted that long haha
Great video mate. Nice to see SWR 701005 also GBRF and DRS crossovers sadly the 86s are gone from Freightliner and 350/2s will be gone from LNWR also the 319s cause the 730s will took over them.
Thanks very much, always happy to catch something unexpected
Brilliant vid mate! Great to see you back on the best line in the country (in my opinion)
Thanks very much for your saying so, the WCML is my favourite mainline in the UK
@@Tornado922 Mine too. Plenty of variety to spot
Very great video lots of freight traffic and passenger traffic I like the DRS class 88 near the end
Thanks very much, always happy to see an 88 running through
This is a great video, glad you are making these again 😀
Brilliant, great to see the 90 and 88.
Thanks very much :)
Great to have you back, cracking video as always!
Thanks very much bud, it feels so good to finally be back out there

Thank you ever so much!
Nice selection of trains my friend, as it is usual from you😉👍

Good to be back to busy stations like Stafford
It's always a great station to come to that's for sure
Fantastic filming Jarred. I always watch you're videos which they are so brilliant. Im glad you have returned. You should make some railway videos in cornwall some time :)
Thanks very much bud, I'm sure at some stage I will be coming down to do some filming in Cornwall :)
Hi mate great video mate good to see you out and about great see the class90 and 88 locomotives but it is sad there were no class86/6 electric locomotives no more I miss them mate stay safe and well mate goodbye for now clive in N.lreland
Thanks very much, it would be nice to see some of the older rolling stock running about but I was still very much happy with what came through in the morning for me
Cracking video great seeing you back
Thanks very much :)
Maybe the Class 350/2s should go to Great Northern to replace the Class 387/1s to be cascaded to Great Western Railway. So that GWR can have the entire Class 387/1s and Great Northern to have the Class 350/2s from London Northwestern Railway.
Great video. Good to be out again.
Thanks very much :)
Great Video.
Thanks very much
I was passing stafford a couple of weeks ago (on cross country OBVIOUSLY)
Where were you heading?
Fantastic video Tornado922! I really enjoyed this :)
Thanks very much :)
Love Stafford.
It's a great station to go to that's for sure
No. It is someone releasing their dandruff. Welcome back Tornado
They must have a lot of dandruff haha
I don’t understand why the pendolinos go so slowly through stafford. Ive always wondered it. There usually flying through but for the past few weeks, theyve been going slowly. Great catches tho :)
One of the main reasons why they come through slowly (if they are passing through P4/P5) is because they will be crossing over a junction to take them onto the line that leads towards and coming out of Birmingham New Street. Same for when they are going on the UP and DOWN fast lines.
Great video
Thanks very much
Any chance of a walk around/through of the station? used to arrive and depart here in the late 80s
Welcome come back buddy
Thank you kindly!
What kind of trains are replacing the 220 and 221?
Why is that 350 unbranded??I always see it in videos
Great railway video again Tornado922
Thanks very much
Great video.
Thanks very much :)
Well done on hitting the 9k subs as well.
I left my comment before 390 119 came through bound for Edinburgh, I removed it once I saw that 390 119 came through for Edinburgh
Thank you ever so much!
Also great vid!
Thanks very much!
Glad to be back

I will get that done for you at some stage
Hello everyone I will be doing train spotting to day and I will start at 11 today!

I have not been here in a REALLY long time
Remember me?
I do indeed remember you!
@@Tornado922 nice I'll be here often again, the quality certainly hasn't worsened
Welcome back Tornado, great video.
Thanks very much kind sir!
Banter nit-pick - adeu (add you) is French for goodbye. Ado (ah dooh) is fuss! :-)
I shall try to remember this for next time ;)
The bizarre service has 4 coaches due to terminating on a small platform at Crewe
The Birmingham - Crewe service is calling at the intermediate stations in-between Stafford and Crewe because there is no longer a direct service calling to London from London Northwestern Railway
@@Tornado922 why did they remove the LNWR service that went from Crewe/Liverpool via New St
And also on summer I will go on a desil train heading to carslile then I will get off and wait for a avanti west coast or a transpennine
Enjoy!
Thank god he’s back! All because of the Great Sneeze Forward is why there hasn’t been any new videos, but at least we’re emerging out of it.
Lets hope we never have to go through anything like that ever again!
Did you see Simon Poole
No I didn't
Other amazing video legend tornado I can't wait to back out film
Thank you ever so much :)
Can you do to crewe next?
I will be doing Crewe next month
@@Tornado922 nice (also nuneaton is a good place to trainspot aswell (I've seen a vid of u there))
@@H4RL3Y448 I will be covering Nuneaton at some stage
Derby case rate is low, it is safe to come to.
I will be going there later in the year!
I’m going here tomorrow
I hope you had a good time :)
