Trains at Basingstoke Station - 16/06/24

[@AndreiTupolev]

Reading to Gillingham? Seems an odd place to turn round a train. Like they used to use a 33/1 + TC set on Sundays on Portsmouth - Reading services, now they use a 159

[@itsyeboicraig3207]

Wow a 9 car 159, awesome

[@TrainPlaneHub]

Yes pretty mega! Although it’s fairly common practice

[@AndreiTupolev]

I've seen a 10 car! 2 x 159 plus 2 x 158

Great video mate!!

[@TrainPlaneHub]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@JacobsTrainVideos]

Excellent video!! Lots of variety there and nice to see lots of 159s!! You mustve absolutely pelted it across the station to see the Avanti voyager departure haha

[@TrainPlaneHub]

I did actually 😂 I was hoping to film it depart but it came round the corner when I was at the other end so filmed it arrive and went for a “mild sprint” to see it depart 😂

[@PilgramgasseU4U-BahnWien548]

I like your video

Never get 166's on the Reading - Basingstoke these days. That was a 165.

[@TrainPlaneHub]

Whoops yes it was a 165

Looks like Avanti West Coast have started transferring their Voyagers to CrossCountry...

[@arnoldspottingvideos5269]

CrossCountry are ordering 12 voyagers from Avanti

[@TrainPlaneHub]

Yes indeed. They have 3 already
