A fantastic afternoon session spent at Grantham Station on the East Coast Mainline where we see plenty of services from Virgin Trains East Coast, Grand Central, Hull Trains, East Midlands Trains and freight from DB Cargo UK.
This station is always brilliant to film at no matter what day you go there, I happened to be here on a Sunday so obviously it wasn't going to be the busiest station of the day but the amount of passing traffic was definitely fantastic and the DB Cargo 66 that came storming through definitely woke me up.
My next station is Stratford Regional on the Great Eastern Mainline.
You can now find me on Facebook through the group Tornado922, there you will find regular updates, videos and photos from all of my goings on throughout 2017

Great video as usual. I like when the non stopping trains going to london kings cross come round the corner at speed and through the station. I have to say that Grantham is one of my favouret stations. As usual keep up the good work. D.

Great Video! :) Grantham is a great train-spotting station. I haven't yet seen the VTEC 800s and 801s. But it's early days. Soon I anticipate VTEC to extend their 9 and 5 coach sets to 11 coach sets. The 800s and 801s Being diesel-electric hybrids means VTEC can deploy them on services to Aberdeen and Inverness. As you said Grantham is underrated but it's the birthplace of Margaret Thatcher. If there is a museum and library built and opened in her honour then Grantham Station will attract more railway enthusiasts.

I'm glad you enjoyed watching this, its a station that really should get more coverage for sure. From what I understand VTEC wont be lengthening the 800/01 fleet as they will be keeping a handful of 225 sets for the Anglo-Scottish runs
