🚄 ABOUT ME
Hello everyone, I’m StarlifeStudios and my passion is to experience and video railway stations across the United Kingdom at both small and large locations, but, with an informative twist! My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were. Join me as I continue to travel and be sure to let me know if you’d like me to video at your favourite or local station.

[Robert.Harg.]

My son loves watching your videos. We come to this station a lot. At least once a week. He'll be happy to see this

Brilliant video and well done. I was at Stafford that day and also caught 68006 and also the 47712 and 47828 rail tour. Nice one on getting two of them

[権三郎平衛]

The tracks here are quadruple. In Japan, main lines are mostly double track, and local lines are single track.
In the UK, there are a variety of trains. That's great! In Japan, there are almost no diesel trains running on electrified sections, and locomotive-hauled passenger trains have almost completely disappeared.

Nice video! I am always impressed from train spotting videos and your channel itself. I saw 47828 on the rear of Sir Nigel Gresley on rail tour on the west coast mainline a few months ago

[tomward]

Excellent viewing. 2 of the 195s I want 010 & 123 curses. I will get them. Thank you.

00:01 - on the 28th of this month I’ll be returning to Birmingham on a pendolino from Glasgow, so looking forward to it

[meninoserio]

Nice work as always! I'm looking forward to see you in Bromley South, my home station

[handdryersrule]

Great video! I'm glad to see that Celia's voice is still used for announcements at Northern-served stations!

[Broleem]

Amazing work Ross! Hopefully you get into the South London area sometime soon.

[SSccaanniiaa]

Awesome video! 😊
Love the channel as always, great videos you make, keep it up! 🙂❤
14:45 Nice shot of 47712 & 47828 together with the statesman! 😁

[JacobsTrainVideos]

Amazing video Ross!! Quite an overlooked station I think but it looks brilliant with lots of variety! Some nice freight catches there I love 68006s livery! Nice catch of both of the railtours there! Interesting to see the WMR 323 as well! Shame theres no more 319s at this station and the platform looks incredibly low down! On a side note I have been enjoying watching back your playlist and have gotten to Bolton so far👍

[Andrewjg_]

Nice to see trains passing through Leyland. Awesome.

[Expo]

Please (if it’s ok) bring back the old intro, it was amazing!

[parkypne]

Thanks for the video! Awesome to have my local station on here. My 4 year old would love to know why you picked Leyland? Thanks again for all the vids you do!

[nedoopacaktheboygamer]

Hi i'm from Croatia nice video British trains are amazing 🚅 also I have never been on a train

[OverSpotterBlackHUS]

Nice video! Are the Nova-3 trains also still in service now (2024)? So not, why? This train is also so young. Will this train again be in service in the United Kingdom in the future?

[spitfiregaming_]

What software do you use to create your thumbnails?

[Henrystrains]

Hi, could you do Oxenholme lake district?

[TT_Vids]

Could i do a video reccomendation? I have a local station called Severn Tunnel Junction on the line between Cardiff Central and Gloucester. The reason for this recommendation is, there are many types of trains you can see ther including Class 170s 197s 43s 800s 166s 66s and 60s. These can vary due to new trains or special ones but you get a mix of regional, high speed, long distance and frieght.

[gstakk]

great video, out of curiosity are you using 1x for passing trains or zooming below 1x?
