Thanks Henree, it was certainly challenging but I'm really happy with the finished product. Part 2 is a little more predicable but I had to go before the Southern 455s were scrapped!
Amazing that every single train from London Waterloo mainline station (the busiest in the whole UK) passes through here plus two thirds of the trains from London Victoria mainline along with several Overground trains as well!
My favourite station in the UK, and this showcase (and part 2 when it’s out), really show off the expansiveness of a station connecting so many networks!

Yayyy!! A new video! At Clapham Junction amazing!
Well done for identifying all those trains at this famously busy spot. Apart from its busyness all I know about Clapham Junction is that it's not in Clapham.

Yep! It’s actually in Battersea. Although I make it look easy, there is a deceiving amount of preparation before and during filming. I am always preparing for the next train to come into view and there are a lot of cases in this video where it works well (and not!). Thanks David 😃👍🏻
Cool video, nice catches of the 66 and 73, never seen that movement before. Still afore those 455 workhorses

Thanks Tiger Trainz, It was interesting to me as well since it was a Colas driver/movement with a GBRf 73. I assume this is a driver training run or something. Those 455s are certainly well travelled, still excellent metro trains with well-regarded interiors.

Hi there. Just wanted to ask you where you recommend trainspotting in London; I’m looking at stations where FAST trains run past and/or a variety TOC’s. Great video btw 👍!
Great video. Love the 73
Those class 455s with the odd 507 or 508 coach that make up the units definitely need to go. Not sure what the fans like more (707s or 701s
Great video as always.👍👌
I wonder which way you have to make it look so smooth. When I try to make trainspotting I always hear my hands touching my Microphone. By the way, AMAZING video!!

Who knows? Some 701s have been accepted for use but I don’t think any driver training has begun so it won’t be until at least December that they enter traffic.

Меня привлекает эта оквадраченная форма электричек, больше склоняет к метро. Почему поезда питаются от контактного рельса, а не от верхних проводов как в привычной железной дороге?

Its a big fleet of over 80 units and with a best case average of 1 unit swapped with a 701 per week (assuming they start replacing ASAP), they are likely to be completely replaced by December 2025. You should have plenty of time to see one. 😃

SouthWestRailway trains have this thing were they have lots of branches leading to certain areas around west London and also because they meet different trains such as cross country and GWR
28:48 NO WAY I WAS ON THAT TRAIN
20:55 good to see a nice driver usually you dont see these in the city as they are too busy with their head down trying to spend as little time stationary as possible, also did you need any kind of permission to film there?

Of course. Love your home station by the way, been there are and the supermarket over the road a few times! So I can tell by your videos that you use a mobile phone - thats fine! I started using my iPhone in 2013 and its great to learn with. My advice would avoid using the zoom too much as most phone cameras zoom into the image rather than physically zoom so it can make the footage look a little blurry. As far as do and don't on stations: - avoid standing over or on the yellow line, dont use flash on cameras, avoid using tripods and most importantly - make sure you are enjoying it, if your not enjoying it then your viewers will sense this, trust me! Scotland is quite lax on trainspotters and people videoing overall so you shouldnt have too many issues with staff but if you do be sure to be kind and listen to their advice, most of the time its because they want to make sure you are staying safe. Good luck with your endeavours!
