In 1980 I travelled to Yelta on a sleeper train, that is, a works train that was discharging sleepers. The station building at Merbein was being demolished. FYI, I recall it resembled Red Cliffs a typical weatherboard VR station. I read that Mildura had a suburban service with trains running from Merbein to Red Cliffs. It was withdrawn due to low patronage. Very similar to the Townsville rail motor service to Bowen.

Excellent video my friends 😊

Love this video! It’s so cool seeing the double track at South Geelong.

awesome video

As someone who’s local to the area it’s awesome to see the view of this bit of line as it’s something people don’t get to experience often

Why didn’t they build south Geelong and Marshall longer for the 9 car trains? Aren’t they gonna run the whole way to waurn ponds eventually or is it only to Wyndham vale?

Golly! They have really "Gold Platted" those double tracked bits and the new stations. You can really see where the money went, although I'm not sure that is the best use of limited passenger rail infrastructure funds?

Duplicated track begins here 2:28

👍

Have yet to go as far as Waurn Ponds by train, that might be fun. Though I still would also like to take the Bellarine Tourist Railway at some point.

6:02 Q: Why did the Kangaroo cross the bridge? A: It didn't.

Why are regional trains different to suburban lines?🤔

Another awesome video and you going past my house in Grovedale

Great video

The Geelong area is far more expansive than I thought.😊👍

Is it usual for these trains to run on the right hand side?

thanks for the ride :) I have a question regarding the use of vlocitys on the Warrnambool line will they split from a 6 car at warn ponds then run down to Warrnambool as a 3 car? would act similar to Ararat

Great looking at the line that I worked on initially as a Station Assistant in 1961 and latterly as a Signal Assistant at Seaford through to 1965 after which time went into the Australian Army, and thereafter from 1967 though. Following my military service, I went back to the Victorian Railways as a Station Assistant at Cheltenham, and soon thereafter re-qualified in my Safe Working Certificates, and went out as a Signal Assistant at McKinnon Railway Station in 1968. In the latter part of 1968, I qualified as an Assistant Station Master Class 5 and was posted to Darnum. After an disagreement with Stewie Rae the District Superintendent, I resigned and joined the Regular Army for 10 years and then went on to qualify as a Lawyer. Just one point I would like to raise. Why is there no indication of the station names between Patterson and Cheltenham??? The first indication of the station names after Patterson is *MENTONE!*

Twas about 50 years ago when I was last in Mildura. (I was 10 at the time) Must visit again. Preferably when one of these tourist trains is running.🤩

If was False Alarm fault by used common happens in the past, how long was between time for reset?

Now, at the end of this video, let's not be throwing any *Tempy* tantrums! LOL😁

Great first time saw what Merbein to Mildura track look like and very surpised siding yard tracks stripped out in Mildura Station thats means must use Double-Cab locomotives as can't switch ending of wagons or carriage stock as go nearest siding loops.

👍

I answered my own challenge! LOL😄

Okay, spell Hattah backwards! - !sdrawkcab hattaH lleps ,yakO LOL😁

Hey dad have got a video Mildura to Southern Cross?

15:28 Those markers, 621, 620 etc, are they kilometres from Melbourne? I liked the way you tooted the people giving you a wave. 👋 Another great video. Thanks.

My train line aa a kid/teen. Wish we had southland train station back in the 90s though

Im om this trajn line once a week. Oakleigh to noble park

"Near midnight a friend came to him & asked what he was pondering. To which he replied: Three thousand years ago today its beloved died." {-H.Arp}`×..:

What is the operational speed limit on this track?

19:48 the worst crossing in all of Mildura. Passive, and for the way that car that stopped was heading, has awful sighting distances looking both ways. Less than 50 metres. Amazed accidents don’t happen more often. Thankfully the ones that do are at low speed and are low impact.

How beautiful are those sunrise views! Very lucky you are to experience that and thanks for bringing it to us 🙂

Great video - certainly gives a different perspective to our area. The Mildura -Carwarp video is very interesting. Lots of businesses backing onto the railway reserve that are possibly hidden form the Streets.

A gorgeous dawn to behold. Didn't expect the engine drama, but it certainly made the trip more interesting!

I am assuming this was a 3 car Vlocity set. Interesting the stop at Clayton but no stop at Oakleigh. I guess the line is reaching capacity with all the medium warning signals - another train a couple of sections ahead. Thank you for taking us along for the ride.

And yet diesels are there as backup for the steam heritage trips!!!

Never seen a trains view from Merbein to Mildura before , only up in Merbein a few weeks back even saw a friends house being built on new estate in Merbein too ,Keep up the good work enjoy it so much,Cheers Kieran Ballarat

Another sweet vid mate👌

Mildura Station area has certainly changed all the sheds have gone

The beautiful journey from Echuca to Deniliquin and beautiful sunny day and also thanks for sharing with us! Have a great day!! 👌😉🚂

What was the issue with the shutdown.

awesome video

Great video

I love these Train depots

Carwarp....... *A distorted automobile, perhaps?* LOL😁

i like the way the track crosses from one side to another before it pulls into the station

This train went to Murrayville
