Today we continue the South West Trains series with a film showing train action on a Saturday night at Richmond in London.
Richmond is a very beautiful suburban town in southwest London right by the river Thames. It has two train stations: Richmond station and North Sheen station, from which Richmond station is the major one, the subject of this film. Although the town has only about 20,000 inhabitants, the station is served by frequent South West Trains services on the Waterloo to Reading line, and it is also the terminus for the London Underground District line and the London Overground Richmond branch.
The film first focuses on the South West Trains services, which run at platforms 1 and 2. We see a mix of class 450, 455 and 458 trains. Towards the end the film then shows some London Underground services on platforms 6 and 7, which are formed of modern S7 stock.
The station announcements played at this station are-like at most South West Trains stations-by Phil Sayer and Celia Drummond; in the film we mostly hear the voice of Celia.
Enjoy!
