London: Southern services at Battersea Park

Part 1, Queenstown Road (Battersea): • London: South West Tra...
This film is the second of two parts showing mainline railway services in Battersea, South West London. While the first part explored the busy South Western Main Line railway station Queenstown Road (Battersea), we are now at Battersea Park station, which is the first station on the railway line originating from London Victoria terminus, not far from the other station.
All services calling at this station are operated by Southern, though some passing Gatwick Express trains can also be seen in the film. As opposed to South West Trains (see previous part), Southern uses a uniform green livery for all its services. Announcements at this station are by Celia (platform 3) and Phil (platforms 4 and 5).
The Battersea area is currently under massive redevelopment. A few shots show the enormous construction site next to the station where new residential and commercial properties are being built. Also shown is the Battersea Power Station (the large brick building with the four chimneys), which has been a coal-fired power station until 1983, when it was decomissioned. It is now part of the redevelopment and will house luxury flats as well as the European headquarters for Apple Inc.
In some shots one can also see Southeastern services in the distance, passing in front of the power station.
Enjoy!

You had the perfect weather for it because you know when it's a overcast it's so much better to get shots and videos of the trains

[@bigbreadeaterellis]

Excellent footage of Battersea Park train station.

[@reinohornson5376]

that's some cool construction! the interior is nice too!

Love it! Your filmography is amazing!! You just manage to capture the atmosphere of the locations you visit. Whenever I've had time when catching a train to/from Victoria, I've stopped off at Battersea Park a few times and just observed the trains. I see it as a kind of miniature Clapham Junction, because of the amount of trains that pass through and also the fact that another TOC (South Eastern) runs along side the Southern lines in the same way that South West Trains and Southern trains run along side at Clapham Junction. Amazing video, I always get so hyped when I see you've uploaded footage of destinations in London :) Cheers, Matt

Another great video!

[@SpaceGod718]

Amazing production, so crisp and clean 👌

[@maimadha]

Great video'

[@LondonBuses1503]

Surprised that you filmed Southern services! At least 1 train was in the video! :P :)

[@andydrew2003]

It's not GTR's fault, it's the fault of the trade unions. I mean look at the Tube, it hasn't had guards on it since the late 90s and has any _really serious_ accident happened related to doors? No, and it's a much more dangerous environment as well.

Beautiful images!

[@mariusgosea5912]

Southern,Great Northern, GX(Gatwick Express) and Thameslink might form the biggest operating operator in London. The name is GTR

[@psychoCrazyNinja]

[@CoolTransport]

[@AndreiTupolev]

not one Southern service was cancelled?! You ought to sell this to the news as a world first.

[@zkd_345]

Yeah , when they want, southern are not on strike

[@matthewwilliams4569]

Why did they disconnect the Battersea park to Victoria from london bridge line? (Plat 1-2)

[@SheriffTV467]

Loudon Overground go to platform 2

[@moose_ringo9161]

To allow the platform to be extended

[@servertoaster]

3:00 Is that... a 3 car class 377?

[@harveyjohndrew907]

3-car units converted from Class 375 Nos. 375311-338 by having their Tightlock couplers replaced by Dellners. Originally used on Coastway services but have now moved to London suburban services, being replaced by Class 313s. Basically the 337/3 have 3 cars per unit. Hope this helps!

[@dtulip8]

1tommytrouble yes, they're former class 375's

[@AndreiTupolev]

A 10 car 377 on London Bridge-Victoria?

[@FK-qh3mm]

Yea
