Trains at Shrewsbury. WML. 19/02/2024.

About 2 and a half hours spent here at Shrewsbury on the Welsh Marches Line where we see plenty of services from Transport for Wales, West Midlands Railway and those absolute beauties in the thumbnail.
I'm not going to say anymore about the complete and utter prat that I mentioned during the video. Everything that needs to be said about him was said in the video.
Right, other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here at Shrewsbury today. It's a lovely station to film at. The surroundings are stunning as well. The River Severn passes underneath which is an absolutely phenomenal sight. When there's breaks between trains, and there's plenty of them, it's just nice and peaceful. It's not too noisy unlike many other stations where you're constantly listening to sirens. As for the traffic, it's busy enough however I wouldn't recommend coming here at the weekend as it would be significantly quieter. You don't really get much freight through here. It was nice to get the 97/37 combo passing through. All in all, a very charming and enjoyable station to film at and one I'll never tire of returning to. If you've never been before then I do recommend it.
I haven't a clue where I'm filming next so keep an eye on Twitter, the Community posts and the new Claret & Blue Trainspotter WhatsApp channel for updates.

Really think you should try a Sunday morning at Lichfield Trent Valley it’s always really busy on a Sunday morning

😮 Blue 67008 is quick to get on Spotlog in its TFW livery must've not had a nameplate previously and 82229 yes its in the lifeboats livery

Great video mate. Avanti West Coast do operate on the Euston Shrewsbury runs using the super voyagers but that's on the morning and evening peaks.

Apparently they're stopping that service later this year. Quite a daft thing to do imo because that's no direct service from Shrewsbury to London now. Pretty sure it'll make Shropshire the only county in England without a direct service from London

Try doing a trains at Reading as that is one of my favourite stations to go to

[@ClaretBlueTrainspotter]

I do intend to film at Reading at some point this year. Hopefully in the summer

You can't get down to the platform from the bridge you must go under the station and go through the ticket barriers which would take about an extra 5 mins probably so that's why he probably ran across the tracks but its still not acceptable to do so and people like this should be punished for putting themselves and other people at danger!

That's awful that is. Fortunately I've never witnessed anything like that but I can only imagine how horrible it is to witness. There seems to be a disgusting amount of them incidents up and down the country recently which just breaks my heart
