SouthWest Trains Today - Part 2: Video 2: Suburban London

This is the third in a number of video's including the SouthWest Trains TOC after you people voted for it as the second train company for me to film after in my TOC voting video.

This series is split into two parts: Part 1: The South-Western Mainline Part 2: Clapham Junction and Berkshire

This Video includes all of SouthWest Trains' EMU fleet including Seimens Desiro classes 444 and 450, Alstom Juniper class 458 and BR class 455 excluding the slam-door units. Also included are DMU class 159 which form the services to Exeter St. Davids and long distance non-electrified routes. Clapham Juntion is Britain's busiest station and is situated on the merger of many lines from Brighton, Staines, Reading, Eastleigh and Weymouth to name some into termini including London Victoria and Waterloo. In this video, footage from the daytime and nighttime is used, the latter includes some fast ECS moves through the station. In the next video there will be a small amount of bonus footage including a Southern Class 377 arrival at Clapham at nighttime and also First Great Western DMU class 165/166 fast workings through Winnersh Triangle on services to Reading and Gatwick Airport.

I hope you enjoy the video.

fantastic footage, well done! is the.... urr 444 is it? teh white one near the beginning.. that is a lot longer than i ever thought emu's could be

[violinings]

yep it's a 444. Beleive it or not there are longer ones out there!

[AndreDevecserii]

I've always wondered, are the Windsor, Reading and Weybridge routes commuter or regional routes?

[violinings]

WIndsor and Weybridge (I think) are mostly commuter routes. Reading not as much, up until Staines, seeing as people from the Reading end mostly just get a HST service direct to Paddington. Sorry for the delay in replying.

[lukespencer91]

wat is the music called at the begin!

[violinings]

That i don't know. Someone gave me an internet link for it at college, but i can't find it now.

455s on the windsor side go back on the Main side as they operate rounders.

[daleksvscybermen]

06:24 How could a 455 be beating a 444!!!

still 455s are way better!

[D78stock]

The 450's are better than the 444's. My opinion anyway. But the SWT 455's rule! I don't like the southern 455's though.

Nice vid 5*
