Trains at Marks Tey (GEML) 26/08/2020

[@RickyNowis]

Epic video once again. Nice capture of ex Northern class 321's working in pairs shame Northern are getting rid of the class 319's as well. The driver of the Clacton-On-Sea to London Liverpool Street looks like he has seen better days :-)

[@arnoldspottingvideos5269]

I love the sound of the 745s when they pass through they sound amazing.

[@StarlifeStudios]

Hi Arnold, don’t they just sound awesome. Very similar sounds to Class 373 Eurostar’s which is a good thing. They are one of the best new trains by far.

[@notnjx5270]

Thank you for this! I'd love to explore the GEML after this is over!

[@StarlifeStudios]

No problem Notnjx. I think it’s one of the most unappreciated lines and with even more new trains to come, it will be a gold mine of variety within the next few months especially on some lines which have had none for the last 20 years, like the Southend line. Thanks again for watching 😃

[@alfredosgaming340]

I’m late, but it’s still great!

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks Alfredo! 😃

[@Trainspotter11_]

Brilliant video! I really enjoyed this :)

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks Trainspotter11, Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Desiro360]

Very good video and great footage too. :)

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks Desiro360. Looks like this part of the country is definitely your area of expertise!

[@Desiro360]

@@StarlifeStudios it is indeed as it's my local area. Glad you had a good time at Marks Tey. :)

[@StarlifeStudios]

Awesome! I also popped into the local American Diner near the station and that was a great experience as well 😃

[@theimperialist2686]

Another great railway video

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank You imperialist 😃

[@robertmwamba7971]

Awesome video! :) I haven’t seen the 745s before :(

[@RobMw]

Me too maybe on our way to Stratford or Liverpool Street, we will see 745s

[@ejc7129]

Excellent video 😎👍🏽 A bit naughty though putting a 745/1 on a Norwich service as these have no 1st class accommodation and are solely intended for use on Stansted services. This is not the first time I have seen this. It seems to be happening regularly on London-Norwich services 🤔

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks EJC, Fortunately, I didn’t actually travel on a 745/1 during my time in the east but I would be disappointed if I had a first class ticket! It certainly seems to happen a lot more than GA would like. It’s also not like they don’t have enough sets, there was about 3/4 at Crown Point sidings.

[@ejc7129]

@@StarlifeStudios yes indeed, perhaps the maintenance schedules need tweaking on the 745/0’s to increase availability? (Just a guess as they are still a relatively new fleet). I prefer these Stadler trains to the IEP, its a shame the IEP project went with Hitachi instead of a 135mph version of these Stadler trains 🤔

[@nathansrailwayphotography8125]

You should go to Watford Junction Queenstown Road and Newbury

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks for the suggestion Nathan, Watford is one I've been wanting to do for a while and I'm sure I'll go in 2021. Ill put Newbury on my list of stations to visit in the West.

[@belgianrail1]

How do u make your thumbnails?

[@StarlifeStudios]

Hi Trainspotter 222, I usually take a still from my video captures and then edit them in Adobe Photoshop. I hope you like them!

[@belgianrail1]

But then how do i see it on youtube thx😉

[@LordEverythingtrains]

Nice one

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thanks Lord Everything!

[@LordEverythingtrains]

@@StarlifeStudios also were next

[@StarlifeStudios]

Next one should hopefully be a chiltern video if all goes well. I’ve had this video prepared for a while but have never really got round to uploading it. As far as recordings go, I think I’m probably done for this year now.

[@martinharry7745]

I like freighter trains there good

[@txmhalliwell-railways4514]

What camera do you use? Also I recommend Batley next, aswell what a great video!

[@DPTrains]

Nice!

[@StarlifeStudios]

Thank You 😃

[@n1thmusic229]

Oh Hi there

[@StarlifeStudios]

Oh Hi there to you to 😃

[@Vk.Dane7]

Another good vid as always and i noticed your going along the GEML am i right

[@StarlifeStudios]

This is the furthest south I went, I have two more GEML videos left to upload. Both of which have some good moments :)

[@Vk.Dane7]

@@StarlifeStudios speaking of south ever thought of doing Clapham Junction thats the busiest station ive been to in London

[@StarlifeStudios]

I’ve been to Clapham before, I’d ideally like to have gone again this year but that’s unlikely now. I will definitely try and get Clapham Jct in 2021. Hopefully the 701s will have also started entering service for max variety.

[@Vk.Dane7]

@@StarlifeStudios good idea
