Richard the driver's experience add a whole new meaning to "branch line"

Vicki was last seen being dragged away by Police after getting involved in a massed brawl with the away fans.

"I love a good canal," says Geoff. Next project! All the Docks!

great video with a few cameos from myself in the background shame we lost the game. great to meet and chat with you both

St James Park station in Exeter is adjacent to the football ground and is on the Paignton to Exmouth service and is used on non matchdays too. It was called Lion's Holt until 1946 and the football club actually contribute to the upkeep of the station.

I'll miss this series a lot when it ends :( Glad yall are ok

"I literally have no idea what they were shouting." Yeah, about right for Man Utd fans ;)

Victoria, there's a way to figure out what type of train it is look at the numbers. if the train has 6 numbers it's a multiple unit. in this case the first 3 numbers are the class of train the types of trains are broken up like so: 1xx - diesel multiple unit 2xx - diesel electric multiple unit 3xx - electric multiple unit (25kV AC overhead lines - exceptions are the 313, 319 and a couple of electrostar classes which are dual voltage) 4xx - southern region, 750 V DC third rail 5xx - merseyrail electrics (750 V DC third rail) then there's some more modern trains that don't fur this pattern any longer such as the class 700 (new Thameslink trains) and class 800 (IEP) but in general that's how it's broken down. you were on a 323 btw, a 3 car electric multiple unit that takes power from the 25kV AC overhead line system. You can tell if your on a sprinter because the number at the front will always be with 15x xxx I. e. 150 - sprinter 153 - single car sprinter 155 - regional sprinter 156 - super sprinter 158 - express sprinter 159 - a 3 car variety of the 158 solely in use with south west trains.

Three cheers for Richard! What a top guy!

Well, I was in a All The Stations video without even realising it, you can just about see my ginger hair in the background on the platform at Piccadilly. 13:51 from Piccadilly to MU Football Ground. And in the same carriage too. How on earth did I miss you guys?!

Shame you didn't film Vicki's reaction when she woke up and saw that scarf. That would have been hilarious

Hello There, a great video, I do love the architecture of both Euston and Manchester Railway Stations and it was good that you had that positive and informative interview with Richard Evans. Keep up the good work! Cheers Peter :)

I recently found out there's an Old Trafford station at the south stand. This video perfectly captured the station and the matchday atmosphere at the East stand. Am not visiting Manchester anytime soon as it is a 24 hour flight for me. So thank you very much for showing me around!

Great video as always, I didn't look too bad either its clear you have some very skilled editors :-) Keep up the good work and, hop e to see you in a few months for a high speed ride as promised.

If you like canals keep an eye out for the Huddersfield Narrow Boat Canal when you pass over the Saddleworth Viaduct on the Huddersfield to Man Victoria line (it's between Marsden and Greenfield stations)!

Yay for Congleton! Glad you liked the view from the Viaduct, could practically see my house!

This reminds me of the time I was for research internship at the University of Sussex. The accommodation was the one nearest to Falmer train station, and Amex Stadium, home of Brighton & Hove Albion, is literally across the track.

I've been all over Britain on the railways, in the 80's I had an All Line Rover on a few occasions, but on this trip you've visited a station I've never been to ! Judging by the service frequency I think it's highly likely that one's going to remain "unticked" on my list!!

I've yet to be disappointed by the stingers at the end of the episodes; this one's my favourite thus far. :-)

You're on a ROLL (!!) great work - captured the essence of the event (!!) that's very difficult :-)

I'm more of a Quiddich fan myself. But we have both Footballs in my area. The American has a huge stadium with a light rail station that services more than it. The Rest of the World football stadium is smaller but still very popular, serviced by bus, as is most of our public transit. But trains of various sorts are making a come back.

It used to be called Old Trafford Station. Used it many times back in the 70s. You would get a day return from your local station via Manchester Piccadilly and probably still do.

Mr Dadrail..... he's a freight train driver now, top fella 👍👍

I know I am late to the party (I discovered ATS only last week and have been binge-watching), but in my country there's a couple of stations like this: * Amsterdam Bijlmer ArenA, which serves the Amsterdam Arena, the home turf of AFC Ajax; * Rotterdam Stadion, which serves De Kuip, where Feijenoord plays its home games; * Eindhoven Stadion, which serves the Philips Stadion, home turf of PSV Eindhoven * Heerenveen IJsstadion, which serves the Thialf skating rink, where international speed skating competitions are held. Amsterdam Bijlmer ArenA has a regular service by NS, the main Dutch railway company. The others are only used during special events. Curiously, of these, only Rotterdam Stadion is on the official list of railway stations, Eindhoven Stadion and Heerenveen IJsstadion are not.

I'm a Liverpool fan, so this episode is hard to stomach, but I have done, and also 'liked' the episode, as I'm going through each one clicking on the thumbs up on every one. I feel it's my duty!

Love the PA announcement bleep

Very enjoyable

You went through 'my station' of Kidsgrove - shame you didn't get off but understood you were on a tight schedule - but I do know you'll be back again to cover others locally. Well done both of you :-)

I belive that many of the arivia trains Wales services on a Sunday from Chester do that same maneuver at the platforms at Picadilly

Omg, i was at old trafford watching the match! I actually flew from heathrow airport haha

Old Trafford is an area of Greater Manchester and not just a football ground, the football ground station is now closed so if you want to travel by rail you have to get a tram to old Trafford which stops near the cricket ground, also known as old Trafford

The train that took the All the Trains team to and from Manchester United was a Class 323 EMU. Northern Rail are sending these off lease as soon as replacement stock arrives, when they will likely join the larger batch in the West Midlands franchise, currently London Midland.

Getting the train to away days is the best feeling

Loving the content guys 👌 gonna keep watching, looking forward to some cheeky drone footage as well 😜... shame you didn't have something like an Apple Watch or a FITBIT here to track your days 😂

The class 323's are Hyper Networkers. I've been on them in Birmingham even though I live in Essex

I am completely enjoying all of the videos, especially this one. As someone who lives in "New" Trafford I like seeing the shots of the "Old" Trafford football ground. The "New" Trafford is Trafford, Pennsylvania, USA. We are about 15 miles east of Pittsburgh. George Westinghouse named the town Trafford because it reminded him of the Trafford Park section of Manchester. Keep up the great work this series is a lot of fun.

It suddenly occurs to me that I'm disappointed that your theme music isn't Flanders and Swann's "Slow Train".

That's that place that has special allotment land inside. Shippea H is more inviting and was there yesterday 😁

Geoff, at about 11.40 in the vid you went all Northern in the commentary!!!!! Brill !!!!

Theme tune mega mix at the end.. Groovy...

you both need to come up north more often beautiful scenery and railways..visit man city...and you were not far from trafford park freight terminal..and you went through my home town...macclesfield 🖒🖒

The day I missed a great opportunity to meet you guys :( maybe next time, if there is a next time!

So, did you get the tram back into town, or wait for the match to end?

Rumour has it that Arsenal already have their own Underground station in London and that there are plans to build a railway station near Anfield in Liverpool. In Glasgow there's already a Subway station at Ibrox (round the corner from the stadium, home to Rangers FC).

Are there any other awkward stations that can only be reached on a certain day or days?

Here's to hoping there is a special train to Norwich for a Canary match when the season starts again!

Who won the match? Small bit of non-railway trivia: GMP traditionally names its horses after characters from Dickens.

All The Stations are you doing a Q&A soon or when you finish going to all the stations

The train they got to Man Utds ground was a 323 emu, not a Sprinter as Vicky said.

i always take the train to old trafford cricket ground and walk from there. If the croud is really large and full of people who don't know the area, I get off at trafford bar stop and walk. about a mile.

Imagine this with Social Distancing

Sorry to bother you, but could you please tell me what day you do Herne Hill [HNH] please.

So guys, what happened with Episode 5??? I can´t find it! Or is it out of order like this Episode (episode 9)?

Very good but how many has wigan area got

What was that red ribbon thing at 0:22?

Recorded for posterity of course, the service to this station was suspended at the club's request in 2018

Did you have wait the dull 2 hour to get the train back? 😊

Disappointed that Bill Bailey didn't make an appearance!

When are you in aberdeen

RIP to all those victims 💙💙

Please tell me they do Stockport in another episode. How could they miss THAT going between Manchester and London?

Already in the Midlands but what about the lines in the SW? Like lines down to Dover etc...

I gather that plans are afoot to build a railway station close to Liverpool's Anfield stadium too.

HI GUYS RICHARD HERE FROM DAD RAIL

7'23".... "This isn't the ground is it? Isn't this the car park?" 🤣🤣🤣 Actually Geoff, it's the world's largest public toilet.

LOL, "This is your Captain speaking! We are delayed a few minutes because of the wrong kind of leaves on the line." :-P

Dad Rail!!!

Where's Milton Keynes? I don't see it!

I love the All the Stations project you are doing, but why oh why when you are limited to 4 videos a week did you put out the trip to Old Trafford when we've already seen much of this before? Also i can understand getting the fast train up to Manchester, but why didn't you get the London Midland back to London, or change onto one so you could stop at so many more stations rather than whiz straight past so many? I guess you'll get many other opportunities to do the stations on this line as you travel up and down the country.

9:28 is that a maquette in the background?

The tunbridge section (where you interviewed the driver) is quite odd. It runs southern trains but has southeastern drivers and guards. Does anyone know why?? Also My train once hit a tree on the Tunbridge line, it was very scary. I wish my driver had been the one you interviewed!!

I remember getting the train to from Levenshulme to Old Trafford and back in 96, to see Germany v Russia. Loads of German fans on the way back.

Ahh great you went to United :) fantastic club best in the world and yes I'm a fan!

I wonder what would have happened if that train was cancelled because of the attacks, how far would this project be set back because of it? And yes, I know it was 1 day before it happened!

Re-watching this when the documentary dropped

Geoff Marshall what's your favourite football team

I live in Milton Keynes!

I would like to visit this "station" myself. Is it easy to leave the train and NOT go into the stadium, as you guys did?

You bought a half and half scarf you are evil

All The Stations scarf?

Yay my station Poynton

This episode is missing from the official playlist

could you go to the etihad stadium mertolink station and look around it.

Song at 10:32?

Richard Evans is DadRail just so you know :)

To this day I'm so upset Stoke didn't get any air time

That was a Class 323

Geoff did you buy Vicki that scarf or did she bag herself a Manchester United programme

Hi to my favourite youtube couple, hope the trip is going good! have you any idea when you'll be in my native Southport, would love to come and say hallo! Best of luck with the rest of it all. Brendan

You could have done it during Carrick's testimonial as well...

Geoff, that was a class 323

Are they they only team with a dedicated Station just for them?

Mantapp for last scene da video..hahaha

Manchester is my local staion to london but my local staion is accrington and blackburn

Class 390 are so nice

hi are you coming to Blackpool? I work on tram as a conductor. I hope you meet me soon :)

6:02 It is a Class 323.

I know you won't see this, but what editing software do you use?

The video didn't really make this clear. Did you two have to stand outside Old Trafford for the entire length of the sportsball match, before you were allowed to get back on the train? If so, how come you didn't go looking for Manchester United's local castle/cathedral?

Did you realise you interviewed dad rail
