SWR On Board Announcements: Waterloo to Exeter

Automated announcements from a SWR service from London Waterloo to Exeter St David's voiced by Celia. Service was formed of 2 x Class 159s.

Only Celia can make a 3hr train journey sound like a suburban service. RIP Celia

5:48 i heard that on the train and thought it was weird and wanted to hear it again 😂 great video

[@Parallel395]

She used to say ‘Exmouth Junction’ for some reason which is weird because that’s not a station

[@lloydenergyninja]

i hear that all the time

[@LokiAvivson]

thanks for doing this! as swr are replacing celia with elinor hamilton on the 158s and 159s

[@Class_159_Enthusiast]

my local 💪💪💪 love it

[@jamiehooper5328]

Nice recording of celia oj the 159s I belive Elinor is on some of the 158/159s so Celia could be on borrowed time for SWR.

[@elibennett.x]

Yep, I've heard from a guard that if the tests are going well, which they are at the moment, celia will be replaced across the whole fleet

I heard Elinor making the penalty fare announcement on a Class 444 last week but Celia was still doing the other announcements

[@jamiehooper5328]

@@Parallel395 hmmmm interesting

[@elibennett.x]

@@Parallel395 She's slowly being rolled out. Elinor is only in test mode at the moment on some 158/159s.

Could You Do Class 334 ScotRail Helensburgh Central - Edinburgh Waverley

[@SouthWestRailEnthusiast]

I was on SWR Class 159 today and all the announcements were different. Made by Elinor they were

[@gabrielstravels]

I'm currently onboard a SWR 159 too as I speak and yes, it has the new Elinor Hamilton announcements. I'm going to miss Celia Drummond a lot - her announcements were amazing, and in particular, I loved the way she said *This train is for London Waterloo* , as if she was excited or something

[@kholodalhazmi3377]

Can you do Walsall Station i waiting for it!

[@natesmainlinevids]

So who will be the new voice of the South Western Railway onboard announcements including on the new 701’s?

[@Parallel395]

I think New Celia is currently on the 701s. They are trialling Elinor’s voice on the Express Sprinters atm though

[@kholodalhazmi3377]

Wow that was a good announcement

[@Parallel395]

Thank you!

[@kholodalhazmi3377]

You Welcome!

[@transportlegendshorts]

Fantastic Parallel

[@Parallel395]

Thanks!

[@KJTrainenthusiastYT]

At least Celia is still on the trains i always wanted to do Exeter St. David’s to London Waterloo

[@elibennett.x]

She is getting replaced.

[@KJTrainenthusiastYT]

@@elibennett.x noo I’m gonna hate SWR for this

[@wltb48324]

Why did it say this is Clapham Junction if it didn’t say it was going to Clapham Junction

[@Parallel395]

It stops there to pick up passengers only. It’s advertised as first stop Woking from Waterloo

[@a.rentertainment2232]

Will you film Grantham next?

[@Parallel395]

Probably not tbh

[@elibennett.x]

In honour of Celia who soon is going 😢

[@Parallel395]

Sad times!
