A new channel made from scratch that will give you interesting content about trains and buses from London and the South East to the likes of the North and the South West
Big video coming in the works as we celebrate having 50 subscribers and we have a look at what is yet to come in 2026 and 2027. We will also be doing some train rides and train-spotting throughout this video.
This Months top stories rounded up to make this post…
*Bedlington, the last station on the Northumberland Line, opens for business * EMR class 222s heading to ScotRail replacing Inter7City HSTs * Liverpool Street revamp: all you need to know * Thamesmead DLR extension confirmed * GWR class 230 001 enters service and Chiltern Railways mk 5A “Explorer” trains enter service * 5 new stations in the West Midlands reopen after 85 years of closure
Special News: Thank you so much for 50 subscribers, it took 7 months to do, but we got there in the end!
Brand new CAF class 897 “Serenza” hoping to join LNER in 2028!
Quick info: *These new trains are 10 carriages long * They are tri-mode trains meaning they can run under 25 kilovolt AC overhead wires, diesel mode and they can also run on batteries. * There will be 569 seats per 10 car train with all of them having more comfortable seats than LNER’s existing fleet of Azumas in both first and standard class * They are expected to run along side the class 801 Azumas on the whole of the LNER network which covers over 1000 miles of track.
What improvements do these trains have over the class 225s?
As we all know, the CAF class 897s are due to replace the aging, but beautiful InterCity class 225s, but what improvements do these trains have over the class 225s?
* They will have a three pin plug socket and a USB-C port with table-seat power bars * They have larger wheelchair spaces, improved luggage storage and braille seat numbering * Passengers will expect to see an improved buffet car and water refill points * They will also expect to see digital info screens (2 in each carriage) to tell them about any disruptions on the line
In my opinion, I think these will turn out to be great trains like the class 810s and 230 D trains. They are certainly the best replacements for the class 225s despite them being the icon of LNER, but one thing for sure, they’ll definitely be better than the new Ex TPE Chiltern Railways mk 5A sets as I have heard a lot of complaints about them recently with people saying the trains they are replacing, the mk 3 “Silver Sets” are better. However, they’ll surely do better than the class 465s…

Went to have a look at Robertsbridge today and found myself at Robertsbridge Junction on the Rother Valley Railway. Here are some photos that I took for you to have a look at.
( I also went to Merstham last week so here are some photos of that too).
