🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station.

[@Filip-Trainspotter]

Great video! And still loving your journey! Hope you enjoy that station!

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks Filip, it was a great station. The delays and cancellations made things a little complicated but it worked out! 👍🏻

[@donovankloster1072]

​​@@StarlifeStudiosEither way you did an outstanding job. I love the videos

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank you! 😃

[@MCV-Evora]

NO WAY YOU DID BOURNEMOUTH!! I WENT THERE YESTERDAY!! THANK YOU ROSS!!

[@JayEmmet]

Amazing video Ross, especially with the special workings showing up I was on the HST for my first railtour, it was unforgettable

[@kristinajendesen7111]

Pity you weren't around and able to record in UHD when I started there Ross in 1987. Working 33s with TCs as a guard to Weymouth, slammers, double headed 73s & 12 TC, 47s on the XCs and the Pigs when they arrived in 88. I have a picture somewhere of the first HST to arrive, it was actually fitted with buffers. I don't know if any of those have survived. I'm gutted that the NRM 🤬 wasn't interested in preserving a PIG, the fastest 3rd rail train in the world.

[@theblandfordspotter]

That HST was at around 17:00 GMT I was there during the Bournemouth Belle tour so I almost saw you

[@StarlifeStudios]

Yep! Arrived at 1728, hope you enjoyed your trip 😃

[@TheSYDtrainspotter]

Outstanding video Ross! What camera do use? it is very good!

[@StarlifeStudios]

I use a Panasonic HC-VX1. Thanks 😃

[@Andrewjg_89]

Have you seen the new South Western Railway Class 701 Arterios in service. Perhaps you should do a video on these new trains. I have been to Bournemouth before and it’s a nice station.

[@randomguy-tg7ok]

That's a very American-sounding announcement at 2:17...

[@onetothetwothreetothefour465]

Can you do trainspotting at Winchester please?

[@StarlifeStudios]

Hello, I have not yet filmed at Winchester but I will certainly look into it 😃

[@onetothetwothreetothefour465]

Thank you! That’s my home town!

[@keithhitchings8911]

Notice they say carriages at Bournemouth..and not coaches.

[@nickhewitt320]

At about the 17.22 mark, there's a SouthWest EMU sandwiched between a pair of 50's. Is the EMU number 458423 correct, or has there been a renumbering somewhere I've missed??

[@StarlifeStudios]

Hi Nick, Alstom in Widnes is currently working on rebuilding the class 458s back from 5 coaches to 4 coaches, a repaint and re-gearing them up to 100MPH. Ironically, this removed the extra coach added in 2013 and renumbers them into the 458/4 series. In this example; 458423 used to be 458523 before refurbishment. Hope this helps 👍🏻

[@lukeiden9200]

Mate, take it from someone who works at the depot in the car park; I scream when a 159 passes through. (and the 455s coming from Branksome!) Happens maybe once a day, great stuff. Edit: I also managed to see the HST but as it was going through Poole crossing.

[@StarlifeStudios]

The 444s and 450s are quite uncommon and if it wasnt for the HST and 50s, I doubt this would have been high on that list. I actually parked in that car park next to the tamper so I know exactly what you mean! 😃

[@Trainzat]

Great video im late cause i had football

[@AirTaxiA370]

its a shame they got retired, i know they are very old and not the most reliable but crosscountry needed the stock. i was very fortunate to ride on 43007+184 when i stayed in exeter a couple weeks prior & see the farewell tour at st denys with my friends. keep up the great content!

[@Local_Toothless_Roblox]

I have been to Bournemouth. I saw one of the last intercity crosscountry's trains there. I think the intercity livery is one. The one that went past sheffield.

[@jamesburnside3023]

Excellent work

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks James 🙂

[@Citran1001]

Hey I got a question how do you get the money? To like to go to this places nearly every sunday?

[@StarlifeStudios]

Good question - So despite what you see on the channel, I actually work full-time so money is not really too much of an issue, but, time is! I usually batch film when travelling, as an example; This video has a partner video which I did on the same day so I can fully make use of my time. Hope this helps.

[@Citran1001]

@@StarlifeStudios thanks for answering

[@duainesimpson274]

My hart skips a beat when I see a 43 arrive at any station Awesome Vid Ross 🚂 😃

[@ENCTrainspotting]

Fantastic video as always Ross! Great to see the HST and 50s! 👍👍👍

[@DKS225]

Am i right in saying that this is the first time an HST set foot on The Swanage Railway Ross? Whatever the case may be this is an absolutely fantastic clip. Especially with 50007 Hercules and 50049 Defiance at the end.

[@StarlifeStudios]

I believe an EMT HST made the trip down in 2014 (one of the HSTs had South West Trains branding!) but its still rare enough to be special. I suspect this is the last TOC HST tour to reach Swanage. I'm glad I got the 50s as this was actually the second SWR stock movement I caught on this day (the other is coming up soon!) although in hindsight I wish I had stayed on the other platform. Thanks for watching though! 😃

[@Sarahbryson321]

Nice video. I’m going to miss the 125s

[@Zuuu40]

Can i see simontrains at 9:25

[@StarlifeStudios]

Yes! Be sure to let him know hes in my video! 😃

[@pokefan-ix7sh]

6:20-9:11 nice catch on rail tour

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank you! Bournemouth tends to be a lot of same (e.g. 444s and 450s) but it was nice to catch a rare HST trip south here! 😃

[@Trainzat]

That intercity hst looks so good

[@donovankloster1072]

Great video! I enjoyed it you make amazing videos! May God bless you on many more videos to come

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank you Donovan! You too!

[@jerzyk3520]

Nice catch of the HST! I like this pretty livery!

[@StarlifeStudios]

One of the best liveries a HST ever wore and certainly a global image. Thanks for watching 😃

[@maimadha]

Great video.

[@TrewStudios21]

Lovely Class 43 Charter!

[@StarlifeStudios]

Indeed it is! 😃

[@Trainzat]

Great catches that rhtt one looks funky

[@StarlifeStudios]

I'm not a huge fan of MPVs but I suppose its doing its job and its better than nothing!

[@Trainzat]

@@StarlifeStudios ye it is better than just seeing 444’s

[@theimperialist2686]

Nice railway video

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank you very much!

[@TheRealTrains806UK]
