Trains at: Ashford International, SEML/HS1, 11/03/23

[@seanycactushead6697]

Another excellent video from the Tornado. I did some spotting at Ashford international last September. To the east of the station is a footbridge. One can get a fairly good view of the Euro Star trains from the end sections of the bridge. Thanks for posting good sir 😄

[@Tornado922]

I shall remember that for next time I am there! Thanks for the info and I'm gad you enjoyed watching this

[@bobbrooks266]

Great video.we had the Steam train pass the farm yesterday. And that Pullman passes to time to time via otford and sevenoaks our farm is next to the main line . Looking forward to seeing more. Regards to the family 😊

[@Tornado922]

I will be venturing near your farm later this year when I start my SEML series from Dover to London :)

[@bobbrooks266]

@@Tornado922 well you won't miss the farm if you're on the train in July August you'll see endless rows of purple lavender 😁

Hi Tornado922. Great film at Ashford International. Looking forward to the next film at Manchester Piccadilly. Kind regards, Chris.

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much!

[@montystelevision3238]

17:10 When you think, years a go we used to have "Pullman" trains in operation regularly on the Network. Bournemouth Belle, Brighton Belle, Manchester Pullman. Now you are lucky to get a seat on an ironing board on a train.

[@archiethornton777-3]

I just finished my train spotting 45 mins ago near Canterbury west station recording 2 legands 1) the mighty Pullman's and 2) the great all mighty golden arrow with the class 48 being pulled from behind.

[@chrisatrailway7573]

VSOE Pullman look amazing

[@Tornado922]

Thank you kindly

[@callumthetransportspotter]

Very good video I would really like to see you go back to Birmingham new street as that is my favourite station in the uk and funny enough my local one as well

[@Tornado922]

I will see if I can get that done later this year

[@callumthetransportspotter]

IT was such a great surprise to see the Pullman coming through!

[@robertstrainsnsw1596]

Great video at Ashford International best bit was the Pullman

[@Tornado922]

The Pullman was amazing to see

[@arnoldspottingvideos5652]

Great video at Ashford Jarred. Nice to catch the pullman, GBRf 66 and a 373 (for a bonus)

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much, I always enjoy coming here

[@DJCox95]

Great video Jarred, nice that you caught the Pullman there - hope that the international services will return to Ashford soon.

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much bud, it will be nice to see the international services calling at this station once again

[@RAILTravelers]

Nice 👍

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much

[@Desiro360]

Excellent video. Sounds like you had a great time at Ashford.

[@Tornado922]

I really enjoyed my time there, always do

[@Desiro360]

@@Tornado922 glad to hear. Hope your Easter weekend was a good one. 😀

[@trainsdu4940]

Feels weird to see 3-car class 171s now. Wonder if there's still some 2 or 4-class ones in Southern now... Great video with the Pullman, the ballast train and the Eurostars at high speed.

[@nottinghamtransportenthusi2784]

Because Southern transferred some of their units to EMR now classed as 170's, with a fourth due for transfer to EMR later on in the year.

[@trainsdu4940]

@@nottinghamtransportenthusi2784 I know that. It just feels weird now lol

[@JackJackProductions]

The Eurostars were going to (in the order they were filmed) Paris, Brussels, London (from Brussels), London (from Paris), London (from Paris), Paris

[@Tornado922]

Thanks for the info!

[@Debbiestrainsandtoys]

😮 according to Spotlog again another nameplate removal for repaint 66745 used to have the Modern railways nameplate

[@tjwillow20]

Hi jarred i believe the Eurostars are planned to call at ebsleet and ashford by 2025 at the earliest

[@nottinghamtransportenthusi2784]

So Eurostar can currently only call at possibly Calais Frethun and definitely Lille Europe.

[@Tornado922]

Just seems such a waste to have a station not used to it's fullest potential

[@nottinghamtransportenthusi2784]

@@Tornado922 I agree with you there! If only Eurostar came back!

[@gamevader4752]

What are they using the 3rd rail and not the wires above

[@Tornado922]

The wires are for HS1, everything else on this network is third rail

[@TFGtransport]

Hey tornado922 the class 321 rentus retired yesterday for me and 29th April 2023 will be the farewell tour for them and the class 313

[@Tornado922]

It is a real shame that those trains have now been taken out of service

[@anima-tronicfan]

Hi there, what app do you use, how do you know where the trains that don't stop are going, many thanks

[@Tornado922]

I use RealtimeTrains for my information

[@anima-tronicfan]

@@Tornado922 ok thanks, i found out about that yesterday

[@lmj9517]

this is so weird... why the Hell does this station have no international services stopping here although it's named as *"International?"*

[@destrothornyco6666]

14:06 thats what you call a major slip up and that got me laughing for a bit 14:10

[@Tornado922]

I do them fairly regularly haha

[@hamshackleton]

All these little toots on the 'yard whistle' for you - is it your growing fame - or notoriety? 🙂

[@destrothornyco6666]

It's actually called a depot whistle 2:10

[@Tornado922]

I'd say it's more notoriety haha
