My first video since we have reached 1K Subs, which I can't thank you all enough! In celebration for this achievement, I had payed a visit to Harrow & Wealdstone last week, as showcased on my community post! This is my first ever visit to the West Coast Mainline, and I got to say I was impressed by the astonishing variety there is to offer, with lots of TOCs, passing high speed trains and freight services, there really is a lot going on across this Railway line!
Just as a top tip, at H&W I would recommend to make your way to Platform 6 as that has the best views of pretty much all the trains across the station, and during my experience staff were not an issue at all! So go for that! So to sum up, I would highly recommend paying a visit to a station on the WCML if you are in search for variety, and if you really love high speed action, as there were a lot trains to observe in a fraction amount of time, which can be a challenge, as noticed here perhaps! So enjoy the show to the fullest.

After a nice show of railway action from the views at Platform 6, I decided to head out of the station for a while, as I needed a place to charge my device which died after the last shot. So, on my way home decided to grab some evening view close-ups of London Overground and Bakerloo line trains at Platforms 1 & 2, but also managed to coincidently capture a pair of Class 90s hauling a Freightliner service, something that I had been in search for a while. So that really made my evening to be honest!!
