Greater Anglia full journey Liverpool Street to Southminster 18/07/2024

According to ‪@lucalai8436‬, I talk too much, but I don't actually do any talking in this video, instead letting Julie Berry do all the talking onboard 720102 working this 1J44 1714 from London Liverpool Street to Southminster calling at Stratford, Shenfield, Billericay, Wickford, Battlesbridge, South Woodham Ferrers, North Fambridge, Althorne, Burnham-on-Crouch and Southminster. On this service, oyster and contactless are only valid between London Liverpool Street and Shenfield, although contactless (not oyster) will be extended to Wickford and Southend Victoria (not Southminster unfortunately) on 14th December 2025.
Also my first LE journey since January.
Also dedicated to ‪@soaps1983‬ who recently complained about commentary alongside ‪@rossmarks7856‬ as I don't actually do any commentary in this video due to this service being DOO (Driver Only Operated) with no ticket checks taking place as well as ‪@gavinm.9154‬ who suggested subtitles as this journey was onboard an Aventra.
