🚄 INFORMATION KEY
Train Numbers – e.g. 43032 or 800110 – These are train numbers which are specific to that train. No trains can be numbered the same. Locos are 5 digit numbers where the first two numbers are the class of train e.g. 67010 would be a class 67. Multiple Units are 6 digit numbers where the first three numbers are the class of train e.g. 390154 would be a class 390. Click Here to learn more

Headcodes – e.g. 1F32 or 5M00 – These are used by the railway signallers to determine where trains are on the network. Every train within a region has a specific four code ID. Click Here to learn more

Set Number – e.g. WB64 or NL04 – These are semi-permanent loco hauled coach formations which are kept together for formalities. The first two letters usually indicate the maintenance depot responsible e.g. OC is Old Oak Common, LA is Laira. The number indicates the rake number.

🚄 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 My videos are also designed as a historical reference for the days of the past and to reminisce about the way things were.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.

Excellent video Ross!! Was worried that this would just be 377 after 377 after 377 after 700 after 377 but you got some nice freight workings as well especially the 73s and track machines mixed in for good measure as well as the 171s!! Nice also to see 700155 with its pride livery to and the southeastern 375!

[tranporter]

Guinness World Record for the first person to convince Southern staff to permit trainspotting. Congrats mate Ross!

[Marcylx]

I have to say that videos are incredibly relaxing. On top of that, I really appreciate the effort you always put into displaying every single train detail on the side, It's the cherry on top. Absolute peak content mate!

10:54 113 minutes early?! Thats insane

Amazing video I love the trains passing by and the 171 was a bit of a surprise

[Oscarstrainspotting]

Good video, love how you caught the network rail thing at the start and lots of freight!

[iiComment]

Love the whipping sound of tracks when trains are going by!

[DC-csb]

Another great video. It's great the 73s have been kept on the mainline. Well done 👍

[TJCNASCAR]

I love those 377s. Also good catch with the. Dr98929 🔥 and that gbrf 69008 and 69001 🔥

[apexqc]

South Croydon, where only the bravest drivers dare to stop.
GBRF must have thought long and hard before naming that loco.

[HervéArcella]

Thank you much Sir, for this video !!!❤

[Themarmaliser]

Nice one Ross! You’re such an amazing spotter. Great variety of units today! You’ve inspired me to do trainspotting content. I hope one day i can actually become as popular as you are! I do have a video premiere for 2pm BST of some trains on the Riviera Line. I put a lot of work into it!

[davidpanton]

I like the way the sound of the leaf blower is drowned out by the sound of the leaf blaster.

[Anonymous_Trainspotter]

Hi mate, I don’t usually comment on this channel just wanted to say that these videos are mega and absolutely amazing I do have a request for a station to visit, Worcestershire Parkway. Brilliant little station and fairly new aswell. Cheers mate.👍

[ukrailspotter]

Great action at South Croydon Ross. Plenty of good freight trains there especially seeing 73s was fantastic plus seeing southern 171s was pretty good too. In the description, you put Great Northern instead of Gatwick Express haha 😂.

[Trainspotter_]

Nice video ross I remember you saying you were gonna go here!

[tomward]

I will have to visit 1 of the southern stations get some southern electrics. Thank you

[squidgytop.]

What camera are you using. Nice video by the way

[poowee-cv]

2:18 that 700 is too long for the station 💀

[MohidZ]

Come on ! One of my local stations apart from purley oaks and sanderstead

[TrainLifeGB]

Great Video! I do love the 171s, 377s, and 387s! 700s are alright, but the seats are.... meh. I'm surprised the 377/3 and 377/7 didn't show up.
