Review: InterCity Hotel Magdeburg Hauptbahnhof, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany - 5th December, 2014

http://ift.tt/1ygzAgD I stayed at the InterCity hotel on a recent visit to Magdeburg. I needed to be close to the railway station, and this was a perfect hotel for me to stay in. The room was fairly basic, but it was warm and comfortable, and had a view across the railway lines behind the hotel. Breakfast was the usual InterCity buffet, and was very good, although the breakfast room was extremely busy, which wasn't particularly comfortable, and I was unable to film the buffet due to the number of people having breakfast. The film features exterior views of the hotel, both from the railway station, and in front of the hotel, as well as views of the entrance, bar, restaurant and a detailed room inspection. I would definitely recommend this hotel to other visitors to Magdeburg, particularly to those who need to be near the station.

Horsforth Railway Station 2014 Compilation, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England

http://ift.tt/1ygzyWh Horsforth railway station is a railway station in West Yorkshire, England. It is on the Harrogate Line 5.75 miles (9 km) north west of Leeds station and the final stop in the Metro regulated area towards Harrogate. The station is located on the Cookridge side of the Moseley beck but has a Horsforth postcode (LS18). To read more about Horsforth Station, click here: http://ift.tt/1ygzxBJ . When I travel by train from home, I usually begin my journeys at Horsforth Railway Station. I always have something with me which I can record some video footage with, be it my iPhone 5, Flip Ultra, Veho Muvi or Canon Legria HFS 200 Camcorder, so in the minutes that I'm waiting, I quite often make a few seconds worth of film of either the surroundings or of the passing rail traffic. I have done this for the past few years now, and at the beginning of a new year have released my compilation from the previous year. Here is my compilation of footage from Horsforth Railway Station in 2014. The clips have been put in the order that they were shot chronologically, starting in January and finishing in December. Some shots are by day, and others at night, but all of them capture the moments that I was there waiting. 2014 has been a year of continued development at Horsforth Station, with a new passenger waiting area on the Northbound platform and the completion of a turn-back facility also on the Northbound side, allowing trains from Leeds to terminate at Horsforth then turn back to Leeds, thus increasing capacity from the station into Leeds. The turn-back has only recently been used to help with extra demand at Christmas, but is not featured in use in the film. Featured class units and locomotive along with information about them is as follows: Class 43 - http://ift.tt/1uTkoUA ; Class 142 - http://ift.tt/1wL4Ttk ; Class 144 - http://ift.tt/1wL4Ttl ; Class 150 - http://ift.tt/1lsQUoK ; Class 153 - http://ift.tt/1wL4RSd ; Class 155 - http://ift.tt/1wL4Ttw ; and Class 158 - http://ift.tt/1wL4TJM . Featured train operating companies are Northern Rail and East Coast Trains. To read more about them click here: Northern Rail - http://ift.tt/1uTkoUx ; and East Coast - http://ift.tt/1uTkmvK .
