[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

[@Spotter-train]

One of my favourite stations Alex.

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Okay that’s cool

[@djscottyb1]

Good video no wonder where the crosscountry 221 5 car units are all down that way we got all the 4car units that does Bournemouth to Manchester 👍

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Ahh right even if it is 5 or 4 car voyagers I’m not a fan of them only because they get packed all the time

[@SDR702]

Thank you to good people like yourself, for these videos. I have health problems which means I can no longer do train spotting for myself.

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

No problem and sorry to hear that what kinda health problems do you have may I ask

[@SDR702]

​​@@alextrainspotterhd6444Yeah sure. I suffer with Fibromyalgia, which affects my joints and muscles. It also causes terrible fatigue, but you push on the best you can.

[@jamesroberts6577]

A brilliant variety/selection of trains at Newton Abbot nice to see a different 158 shame the castle sets are leaving will miss them

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Thanks I will certainly miss them too all tho I been told they will be extending one or two going into 2024

[@jamesroberts6577]

@@alextrainspotterhd6444 thats good

[@matthewsacre5682]

Amazing stuff Alex, would’ve been interesting to see a 14 coach IET though.

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Lol no chance unfortunately it was a blooper from real-time trains

[@JacobsTrainVideos]

Excellent video as usual Alex!! Saw you at Marsh Barton today filming Sir Nigel Gresley and the XC HST!!

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Thank you Jacob! Did you okay was you on the same platform as me marsh Barton is a great station

[@JacobsTrainVideos]

@@alextrainspotterhd6444 Yea, some great HST passes

[@danbickle]

Good video Alex mate I believe all the ticket offices are going its ashame really

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Yes thanks Dan mate getting rid of ticket offices is just stupid for some people who can’t do tickets online etc but of course they never think things though of course

[@danbickle]

@alextrainspotterhd6444 it is a ridiculous mate like you said, "How can people buy their train tickets if they don't have a laptop or a computer or a Internet

[@crax7329]

Got steam tour tomorrow

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Yup that’s right sir Nigel gresley again

[@SionsTrainVideos]

great variety there 43s sounded good nice catch of 158771 ex 158957 i think there is more 2 cars so they can do more 4 or 5 carriage 158s on things like cardiff to portsmouth if there short on turbos i think

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Thanks is that why they don’t that then , 158771 and 158765 are together down here which is really rare

[@SionsTrainVideos]

@@alextrainspotterhd6444 yeah. Very rare but there swapping adam said

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

@@SionsTrainVideos yeah that’s the only problem it’s annoying that they always instantly swap something rare hwy can’t they keep it as it is

[@SionsTrainVideos]

@alextrainspotterhd6444 well Adam thought they couldn't put 4 car 158s on the Exmouth line because of short platforms or big gaps or something like that so makes sense to swap it

[@SionsTrainVideos]

Did you see my last reply?
