  • Tempsford and Offord Cluny used to be my local crossings - thanks for sharing :)

  • I LIKE THE HSTS

  • shat myself at 1:46 cause i thought there was a train on the road! haha

  • nice video! keep up the good work!

  • The gates go down quick ^_^

  • nice video

    i like the massey ferguson combine

  • Why is the white mesh used on level crossing gates in England rather than simply the red bar alone?

  • @WBDE The mesh attached to the barriers is supposed to be a deterrent to prevent people from simply ducking under the barriers when they are lowered.

  • the foot crossing-very sobering thought that frm red light to passing train the time lapse is only short of 40 seconds.

  • Oh my God, I'm shocked only private railways. : (So there is only one thing:

    Nationalized the railway again!

  • Sorry its about as boring as watching paint dry on a cold day.Why would you bother?

  • @grumblebum42 Why did you? Much as you are entitled to your opinion there was no need to post the comment! Fool

  • @alrispoli i thought it was good :)

  • @ninjaearth12 Thank you!

  • Great footage, and superb vantage points.

    Nicely done.

  • that tractor driver around 2.00 is a right prize tool for blocking your view!

  • i work here at tempsford,essendine etc the track is in a rite state

  • Fantastic video of some fantastic locations. Tallington is a VERY good location. Regarding the 3 girls at Sileby did you not step in and tell them not to do that? I would have had no problems doing so or even phone BTP on their Freephone number 0800 40 50 40? Perhaps you should make a copy of the video for the attention of BTP to see it or show the TOC, etc as it's quite a serious offence.

    Still, a great video from some truly fantastic locations. :)

  • Thanks for you comments. With regard to the 3 girls at Sileby, I could have stepped in but it would have made no difference, they knew what they were doing! BTP are welcome to the video, but I very much doubt they will have any interest. The still photo was published in RAIL recentley in the Stop & Examine column.

  • @UKTrainMan I drive EMU's in Melbourne for far too many years. The s### for brains idiots would rather dangle their legs off the platforms than sit on the seats. I just stopped noticing them but enjoyed the reactions when they failed to notice me until it was almost too late. 35 years driving on both EMU and locos without a hit makes me a rare individual in the rail industry.

  • SOME GOOD LOCATONS THEIR

  • Mate, I Love Your Vids!

    They're Amazing!

    And Always 9+ Minutes Long.

    Do You Prefer The ECML To The WCML Or The Other Way Round?

  • Thanks for the kind words!! I always try and get the balance right between the amount of filming and the amount of stills I take!

    I do prefer the ECML to the WCML simply because the Class 91s and HSTs are slightly more interesting to me than the Pendolinos. However, I should really spend more time covering the WCML as I do like to record the current scene everywhere!

  • is this in england?

  • Yes it is indeed in England!

  • Only 36 seconds from red light to train at that foot crossing. What's the line speed there?

  • 120 mph I believe

  • thats bloody brilliant m8, 5*

  • Now thats what I call a day trainspotting 5*

  • Not sure I like the term trainspotting!!! I don't really fuss myself with the numbers!

  • haha talk about inconcideration lol blocking your view at level crossing funny. how do u get to these places?

  • If you refer to the tractor at Tallington it doesnt bother me, it adds to the atmosphere!

    As for getting to the places I tend to look on the OS map for places where roads/paths and railways meet. Also there is google maps or windows live which help too!
