Trains at Bristol Temple Meads, GWML - 21/4/19
Ойын-сауық
Welcome to the first episode of The Locals! Today I am at Bristol Temple Meads on the Great Western Main Line where services are seen by Great Western Railway, CrossCountry and South Western Railway.
It was fantastic to re-visit this brilliant station, the station has in more recent time lacked the variety it once had due to changes in traction as HSTs continue to phase out and Sprinters moving more South. However, for this session it seemed that was all irrelevant for a second as loads of different things showed up and for a Sunday, this station is absolutely exceptional as different services operate, diverts happened and things are booked differently in terms of traction. The sun was out as well, it was a scorching day and because this was the only station I filmed on this day, it was nice to chill out a bit more. I really enjoyed my visit here to Temple Meads, this one in particular was brilliant.

I literally danced when I saw a great western railway HST
Good video and happy birthday
I have a recommendation for you when you go to Severn Tunnel Junction. If you can, try to get there before 09:00 to catch the Cardiff to Penzance service, it would be impressive to see a service that long
Great video keep uploading great videos like this one

Station always aims to please and it sure delivers. I’ve also started calling all Great Western Railway IEP’s ‘The Nishi Express’. Reason being that “Nishi’ means ‘West’ in Japanese like LNER names their 800’s and 801’s ‘Azuma’.

KTV Videos I believed they deserved something more ‘unique’
Love the angle at 11:52
Also, Severn Beach is served about every two hours, although there is a slightly more frequent service in the peaks. For example, trains leave Bristol at 05 14, 06 30 and 07 04 in the morning and at 17 13 and 18 03 in the evening

That is correct!
SWR travel twice daily from Bristol to Waterloo, at both 8:51 and 12:51. However, there is also a service to Salisbury at 22:23

Awesome catches my friend! I notice there are these little signs that have "25" on them, do you know what those are? Also these are some long platforms, the ones we have for the MARTA train system in Atlanta are about 600ft in length.

The little signs that say “25” indicate that Trains can only go 25mph when the rear of the train passes the sign
Interesting seeing an 800 on a penzance duty.
How often do trains to Worcester run from Bristol
We used to have the 125s, do they go any faster anymore, what speed can they reach now?
@KTVTransport

They normally can reach about 100mph on the 2+4 sets now but due to the brake force they can't go 125mph.

They were terminating at Bristol Parkway due to the fact the Severn Tunnel was being worked on across the Easter weekend. 😊
How frequent are the passing services here?

In answer to the questions. Three and on average every two hours

Class 387’s are unable to run in Bristol as the 387 runs on 25kv AC overhead lines and 750v DC third rail. Bristol so far is only served by Diesel’s and Bi-mode trains.
