🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station.

Wow I didn't realise the GWR had so much variety back then! Cool to see the mixture of old vs new stock! The HSTs and class 332s will be greatly missed.

Yep! This is one of my favourites because it shows the new and old in use, side by side. Transitional periods are some of the most interesting to me as it allows some lines which have no variety at all to be interesting!
RIP HSTs, you will be greatly missed.

I live on the GWML and this transitional era was the best time, so much variety and was pretty awesome! I am hanwell based and loved this era, now its a bit bland :/

I really regret not spending more time on the GWML during the transition and I only have this to show for it! Some other KZreadrs like KTVideos and Tornado922 really took advantage of it. Bland I think is the right word!
Before Crossrail went to reading or to Shenfield/abbey wood. It just was like a regular commuter service as it still terminated in paddington

@@StarlifeStudios It's a shame they have gone now, but i do love the Class 800's, travelled on one for the first time recently and it was a fantastic experience (i filmed the journey too). In my local area too, the class 158's have now been mostly replaced by 165/166 turbos, this is good though as we also used to get 150's which were rusting tin cans on wheels lol.

@@VermilionStudios Yes I did have a quick look at your channel to see what types of rolling stock you were into and I saw the IET trip you did! I don't live in the west so I rarely get to travel on them in general. I'm hoping to catch up with some of the smaller HSTs around Dawlish/Plymouth soon.

It’s now a-wash with only non-stop 387s, 345s and 80xs. The once variety filled station is unlikely to ever get back it’s stopping frequency.

This was 'back in the day' when HSTs were pretty much common across all of GWR. As for why this HST was on the slows to Reading - I'm not sure, maybe its something to do with all the wheel flats?
