When a Video Goes Wrong..
I tried to visit five new stations on the Marston Vale line, however a signalling failure got the better of me.

A delay of between 30 and 59 minutes gets you a refund of 50% of the ticket price, so 33p.

Kempston Hardwick is set to be the main station location for Universat Studios Great Gritain, which is currently in the discussion and planning phase.

Or a new station on the MML
I must say Nick, you got INCREDIBLY lucky to get back to Bedford that quickly after a signal failure on a branch line when you were at a station with no facilities. I would say this video went extremely lucky!
I’m glad at least you got a Pullman Jumpscare to make up for the later cancellations! Sadly, such is sometimes the way of trying to do Train Stuff. Thanks for sharing the adventure x
The moment you saw your non-cancelled cancelled train, and exclaimed "What? What? WHAT??", you sounded like David Tennant after he'd regenerated into the 14th Doctor - wonderful!
The Marston Vale Line. There’s more infrastructure in Sudan

Rubbish, it’s a great line
Delay repay on cancelled trains will be good at 65p each 😂
Still really enjoyed! It's unfortunate these things happen, I've had to put up with it a few times too.
Not sure if you're a Doctor Who fan Nick, but I got strong 10th Doctor vibes at 9:50! "WHAT?"

Was definitely somewhat intentional ;)
Omg! I went on the Marston Vale line on recently too! As there was a train fault that day, so there was a 1-2 hourly service!
Kempston Hardwick is the station used in "A Perfect Misunderstanding" one of the Driver training videos. I thought the signal and level crossing looked familiar
It's not a railway without an awry day! (Mystic foreshadowing there!)
Not to worry Nick. Mistakes do always happen. I still do enjoy watching your videos as I have subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work 😊
Great vlog on the Marston Vale Line Nick. I did the first 5 stations a few weeks ago and I’m glad there was no disruption when I did them.
0:31 10/10 interior deign with the seat blocking the door there
Enjoyable video as usual Nick, regardless of the problems! I understand your feelings about cancelled trains, as I have had problems myself! I once had a train show on the screen as being delayed and then disappear from the screen without explanation, only for the train to turn up
Pointless journey idea: Gillingham (in Medway) to Gillingham
Watching this video reminded me of my great nan, who used to live in stewartby and now lives in Kempston a town just outside of Bedford and I recognised many roads in this video.
‘’ the train is cancelled due to signaling failure’’ more like bored failure 😂😂
I saw the Pullman the other day it was beautiful - Great video despite the luck!
Hope you managed to get to your appointment later on. Good video Nick keep them coming.
I travelled the line last week using an East Midlands 3in7 Rover ticket, most of the stations are in the middle of nowhere, my only stop off was Fenny Stratford.
Brilliant video Nick, I'm very sorry to hear your plans for the Marston vale line went out of the window, at least you got out of the area and wern't stranded there for ages (I've heard LNWR aren't always the best at helping passengers out of disruption). Nice to see the Pullman at Bedford though.
I really enjoyed this video. The high of seeing the Pullman and the low of cancellation. Finally the befuddlement of a train, when it wasn't supposed to be, and the resignation of the ending. Well done, enjoy your lemonade, I did…...
That the luck on these adventures, sometimes it can go perfect or a load of drama happens. I would say it wasn't a waste of a trip but it does suck that it was cut short, great video.
Nice video, Nick lets just say this is the new snow hill lines!
Brilliant video sir!
Love your content keep up your good work
It's frustrating when there is an issue, but at least you got to visit a couple of the stations. The village of Strwartby is worth a visit if you visit the area again. It has a nice town hall, although very little is left of the old brickworks now
ah the walk from bedford to bedford st johns something i did many times due education being near st johns
Fun fact: one time did norway singaling on the railway fail so Norway shutdown the railway for like 2-4 hours
Still enjoyable no matter what. Any day out can turn into an adventure that wasn't foreseen, such is life. Thanks for showing that the so called ' mundane' is in fact very interesting, ie obscure stations and EMU/DMU sets.
More videos like these please
I ventured to Bedford on saturday.... it was the temporary St Pancras, end of the line. All the Intercitys finished up there. it was crazy day for travelling 50 minute journey to london became a 2 hour chug
inearly got stuck in ridgmont for 2 hours, but actually, i just about got on a train ages ago qhich out me 10 minutes forward for the whole trip and was able to get in a train, even though it went in the wrong direction, it didnt matter because i was going to ginto bedford then back to bletchley anyway but i just couldnt do the trip to Bedford
I wasn’t expecting to see you upload a video in my local area! The 65p tickets into bedford have been a blessing at the moment… when the trains are running 😂 Let me know if you’re ever in the area again, more than happy to lend a hand filming and whatnot if needed
The Marston Vale line has gone back to using proper trains (instead of all that Vivarail nonsense) and they still manage to pull a TPE
9:50 - man saw a runaway bride
Did you look at any busses from nearby to kempston hardwick?
LOOK AT ALL THOSE PULLMAN CARS! 😍😍😍😍
I noticed you went to Bedford via EMR. For me, it was really expensive via Bedford. I went in LNWR via Bletchley and it was £34.50, no railcard, return (London Terminals > Bletchley via WMT + Marston Vale Line discount ticket), with 2 people, with the £1 discount, which is cheap (for me) By the way, tickets gonback to normal on the 19th of May
this is my local line, every day i cycle to school i normally get stopped by a train
Marston Vale line really can't seem to catch a break. Whether its other TOC cast-offs breaking down or the ill-fated Vivarail 230s, there always seems to be something stopping it operating as it should.
Living in Bedford I can tell you know you went the long way to St Johns station. Also they are cancelling trains almost every day!
a Bedfordshire local here nick you could have walked down the road to catch the 42 to Flitwick or into Bedford 😊
"The Vale Line That Goes Wrong"
Kempston Hardwick, is there the new Universal studios will be going.
I hope you can do this video I hope there's no cancellations on the next time when you go there
At least it wasn’t raining!
Atleast you can claim delay repay, I can't complain when I get stuck as I get staff travel.. I've just gotta suck it up lol
Hi Nick! Cancellation and delay! That's always the risk with train travel. Sorry it slightly messed up your video.
Are you planning on coming to the Leven branch when it opens on 1st of June?
Nick,i recommend you go to Leamington spa sometime.
I hate spring. Where I live, in spring, it alternates between being blindingly sunny and boiling hot, and being extremely bitterly cold, freezing, windy, and hailstones, if you wear warm clothes you'll be overheated half the time if you wear cooler clothes you'll be freezing cold half the time, sometimes it has a bitterly icy cold feezing wind that nearly blows you into traffic and boiling hot sun rays so you feel hot and cold at the same time. I hate spring. Probably my least favourite season. Then again it never snows in winter here, so winters aren't that bad if I live somewhere that had blizzards in winter like Oslo or Chicago or somewhere that has 40 degree summers like Texas, Spain, Greece, or southern Italy, I'd probably have a different opinion...
Hope the next video does not go wrong
Good video
Shades of Tom Scott.
It happens. Bus/train,plane been there all too often. At least a train appeared for you
Hey Nick, have you done the Mansfield & Pinxton Railway yet?
Surprise train. Great! You cannot script that.
How about a St John’s point to point - St John’s near Lewisham, to St John’s Wood to Bedford St John’s. Any other St Johns I’ve missed?
I smell 10th doctor , lol
Don’t forget the station just round the corner from the Red Bull F1 factory
It's a shame to get stuck at Kempston Hardwick, even more of a shame that I live 10 minutes walk away. I could have given you a lift! The park is also where I walk the dog!
Was that an Ex northern 150 unit u were on
You've got to go again now Nick 😉😏
oh dear
Random skate\bike ramp in a field
Try getting the tickets with a Priv card, 25p!
My train got cancelled this morning from bletchley to Bedford. I was gonna do a trains at Bedford. However due to the cancellation, I instead did trains at bletchley.
Murphy's law applies!
*typical British railways*
oh what's this oh why it's the British Pullman
Breaking Badley
Nothing changes on this line. Oh… but wait , East-West , West-East Railway is coming. Problems solved. Dream On.
You can get taxis from the operator???
oof
Did you press the help button? Were they of any help?
Class 150 sprinters are long passed their best in the same way Bon Jovi should've stopped putting out new music years ago.
0:32 this seat is the real failiure here. Either you have to squeeze past it or people squeeze past you if you sit on it. Who thought of putting it there? Edit: That's why I only do those things when I have nothing else planned that day. Either life or rail tour, mixing them is not good.

Hi
but but content!
Bro my last name is Hardwick
Not a bad gig this KZreading lark. If just half of your subscribers joined and pay 2.99 a month. So 10,000 x 2.99 x 12 months £358,800. Is that right or have a calculated wrong...
