Morning! i'm outside Glasgow Queen Street
yeah last night after Horden, i came up to Scotland
stayed the night here to do ... Robroyston station
so at this point here, i'm going to welcome my guest
everyone say hello to Jen on the move - Hello internet
- Now we have a problem! What?
- He promsed me coffee, he dragged me all the way up here
- I got up at god knows what time this morning, no coffee
- Where's my Costa? You could ... just say hello?
- I could Shall we just go get a train?
Is this gonna be a problem? Getting you a coffee? - Yes!
Our train is like, in literally two minutes
- Well coffee comes first I'm sure there'll be somewhere .... at Robroyston
*PA* The next station is Robroyston *PA*
Alright, i think three people, plus us five in total, got off
And it's quite ... breezy
already, i can see that we're going to be in for some classic .. CLASSIC
Geoff Marshall, bin bag blowing in the breeze, moments
- I couldn't do that in Bordesley Oh! Jen by the way in case you don't remember
So Dan, with me for yesterdays's video was Least Used Berkshire
You were least used .... Bordesley - Bordesley
Was good, good, fun times ... last year? - Yeah
May, May? - Uhh, strange times
Ok. OK! instant impression of Robroyston ... Go!
One word, one word!
I thoght you were going to say coffee *laughs* - Yeah
On the train here she was like "oh where i'm gonna get a coffee" alright!
Yeah one word ... Costa, second word ... cold
that's two words!
Jen, what do you reckond the platform is made of? - bit of M.D.F i'd say
it's just .. it's got a bit of bounce to it
yeah, if you bounced up and down really hard - i don'k think it's built very well
Ok, i've come up for a view from the footbridge but
it's too windy! but if we duck down, then we'll get sheltered
what can you see from the footbridge, Jen?
Jen! what you can you see from up their, Jen?
- you defintely can't see anything, apart from generic new build houses, for our generic new build station
It is quite generic isn't it?
Are you not a fan of generic stations? - i'm not, we just don't put any sould into anything anymore
or character, i think Karl said in one of your list videos they're just "copy and paste" stations
i mean they all just look the same
let's do the lift! have you noticed ... there's a car park on BOTH sides
i'm wondering, do locals use it as a cut through
do people use Robroyston to just cross the railway? it's quite windy isn't it?
it is, it is - have you found the coffee shop yet?
Nooooo! - are you about to die of thirst?
* THESE CALLS ARE RECORDED AND YOUR IMAGES IS BEING CAPTURED ON CCTV *
- Good afternoon, Scotrail how can i help?
hey, can you tell me when the next train to Glasgow is?
the next one for Glasgow Queen Street from ther is the 14:09 will be your next one - Ok, thank you
Hey Jen
look! someone's had drink from McDonalds ...
was that .. that's not you? - Scotland is Trolling me!
Does that mean there's a McDonalds around here somewhere? - there must be a McDonalds
Wow, maybe we go find that?
Are you sure there's not a coffee shop here?
There is not an independent coffee shop, i think there's more change of Bordesley having a coffee shop
Shall we do the official list of facilities?
- Yes we should in the waiting shelter - Yes
Welcome to the westbond shelter, this is platform one
at Robroyston, Jen are you likeing me new wide angled lens?
look, i can do like things like this with my feet
wweeh hey! - that's amazing
thought actually i could suddenly decided i just don't like you i could
yeah yeah! you stay over there i'll just go over here
you know i don't like to get too close to southerners
i'm gonna come in a bit - hang on
there we go!that's not so severe
erm, slighy echo. waiting shelter.
hope you're appreciating the audio echo
*CLAP* let's crack straight on, was there ...
an original Royroyston station, have you read the Wikipedia page?
i have actually read in advance
- and? there was one here, and it closed in the 1950's
ok, when did this one open?
this once was in ... 2019, in the "before times"
in the before! - do you, do you remember those?
the echo distant ... - yeah, it might as well have been last century
and it appears to be serving
it's a parkway station, because the M80 is just over there
but there's housing developments too
yeah, housing all fairly modern, retail park
but we'll go for a wander in a minute because i want to check out that bridge
and we'll check out the car park
in yesterday's video, Dan was counting car parking spaces don't, don't do that
we'll just .. we'll get you a hot drink
she's worse than me!
please tell me you've brough your drone? - i didn't bring my drone, but err
is there?
a waiting shelter? - yes!
but it's got a breeze running through it right now it's really ineffective
is there a ticket machine INSIDE the waiting shelter?
there is - are there bin bags?
there are multiple bin bags
are there dot matrix displays - there are dot matrix displays
are ther audi PA's?
yes there are - is there a bike rack?
i haven't seen one! but i think, i think there must be
is there a car park? - yes there's two of them
are there electric vehicle charing points IN that car park?
that's a brand new catagory .. EV .. Jen!
is there a coffee shop? * laughs *
No, it fails in the most basic of facilities
* laughs *
do you want to plug your youtube channel? feels like we should do that as well
hi! yeah, i'm Jen, Jen on the move
i do a variety of transport type things
and ... yeah!
and this time i've got transport quiz for you
you're not going to try and catch me out?
like when is the first motor ... or traffic lights
no no! the question is, is where is the nearest coffee shop?
that's the question i've been asking that my entire life
let's go for a walk!
Too much wind, too much wind !!
there are EV parkibg spaces, there is a bike rack
with no cars on it
this is a car parking space this side and next side
we're gonna walk to the bridge right?
yup, and there's Jens hair all over the place!
your hair is all over the place! in the breeze ...
Wow .. come to Robroyston for wind
hang on, Royston ...
in League of Gentleman
that's ... local shop for local people
aren't they from Roystob ... Vasey, or something?
isn't that that sketch?
where it's the local shop
are we gonna for a local Costa for local people
a local Costa! for local people!
your age is showing! * laughs *
approaching this ... footbridge
so before they buil Robroyston station
it feels like this would have been
this bridge would have been the way across, the railway - Yes
but it sort of curves out of the way, and now you can just use the footbridge
but this is blocked off, so it's no longer a road access
it's just pedestrian access
the terrible thing is now
all you drink talk has made me want to get a drink that's the effects you've had on me, so come on
let's go find a drink ...
We're here in the car park
we have spotted they are electrical points - EV charging point, manufacturer charging people, hi!
what you should do is put like USB-C iPhone lightning USB, points - oh that's an amazing idea!
you could charge your phone, from an EV charging!
where do in invest - i'd pay! i'd pay a pound
the power is clearly there
it's nice to see there are a couple of cars that are charing by the way
i wanna charge my phone! at an EV station!!
you're not counting car-parking space like Dan, are you?
errm ... - what?
i'm waiting for something * laughs *
are you still going on about this? - yes! alright
come on then it is just coming up three o'clock, our train i think
is the 15:12 from Robroyston
we're gonna head back into Queen Street that'll wrap things up
that is another station ... crossed off
the spreadsheet, thanks for coming Jen on the move
go subscribe to her Youtube channel
do you still want a coffee? - i really want a coffee
i've, i've err ...
you know i disappeared for 10 minutes a moment ago and you were like "where the heck has Geoff gone?"
may i now present to you, the most hilarious
thing ever in a Geoff video
we're gonna do 'the coffee shpo sketch'
hello! i don't know what to call it
i don't know what to call the shop name
but it's a local coffee shop, for local people
'cause we're in (Rob) Royston
Jen, i didn't want to be brand specific
so you've got the choice of a Barstucks
a Pert!
a Zero ...
or a Cost!
which one would you like?
of course, i'm gonna have a 'Cost'
you'd like a Cost, any particlular type of Cost you'd like?
- i would love a latte i'm on it!
there we go, i've been and got you a
just had to put my thumb there
i've gone and got you a Cost coffee
you've split it everywhere as well, just for me
will you now ...
... stop complaining? - i will stop complaining, you are actually a nice person
but if Scotail are watching, you're suggesting some kind of coffee kiosk
one hundred percent needs a coffee kiosk
it NEEDS a coffee kiosk
shall we go get our train? - yes definetely
Good? - .... that's good
