That would be a perfect rendition of a roll by in the United States when one train has to wait for another in the passing loop. What we commonly call the passing siding. Example Highball UP 4311 All black and a good mark around the rear have a safe trip The engineer of the freight or hotshot would respond the same method. I bought the road by Amtrak number six all black and a good pair of markers on the rear you guys have a safe afternoon 4311 W. out
I’d definitely love to see more of these as well if ur still working on the trains! Gr8 vid btw! :D
I’ve did a trip as paying passenger on the Indian Pacific by Great Southern Rail, yes I know how long those trains really are. Perth to Sydney.
It would be nice to know roughly how many wagons there is in one train?
Fantástico Australia
Great video and wonderful job, can I ask why is Pacific National considered the dark side and what train where you guys driving?

In fact, saving the fuel, instead of using multiple trucks to deliver that.

How is that man under a tree with his dog? Is he living there?😊
Astralaya🤣🤣🤣
Wow australia is also look like same India rajsthan Jaisalmer
You should take correct English pronunciation test before holding the mic.Every next word is missing.Australian English is not pleasant to listen anyway.
@Anthony J ,Yes I 100% agree with you.We Indians are not accustomed to the guttural and deep throated speeches of the British .All my children live in US,but that doesn’t help me!
That's a pisstake isn't it.
Nice video Greetings from INDIA 🇮🇳

Nice video. Thanks 🚅🚅🚄🚄💞💞🌐🌴☕🏆👍👍👍
Why govt can't converting these track into electric track
Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Excellent
Nice price of video footage, good commentary from the driver. Do you do more?
Nice inside look. Why the length limit of 1850m?
Length of sidings?
Where's the turbo failure oh wait it's not a General Electric
Part of the railroad between Adelaide and Perth is the longest straight stretch of railroad in the world. It is a single track with no branches, points or turntables. A train sets off from each city every morning and they enter the straight stretch at the same time, yet they never crash. Why? “Because East is East and West is West, and ne’er the twain shall meet.”
Cool
no ride bum
Interesting clip ,enjoyed watching .
Can hear your loco Les is not a General electric 🤣 the whine of the turbo in the 710 is very distinct and ❤❤❤✅✅✅
Curiosity, towards the end of the video when the signalman walks over the tracks to the signal box, I thought point’s track switching is automatic, if so what’s his role?
Union.
It's not a signalman. He is one of the drivers from the locomotive. The points are electrically operated. To reverse the points to open them to the crossing loop, approx 5km away, via the ICE radio in the cab, the points can be accessed and commanded to reverse. If they don't reverse, the train stops before the points and then opens a control panel on the processer and battery box, awaits the run down and then can press a button to reverse the points to open them for the crossing loop. The radio remote reversing of points is only for approaching trains into a crossing loop, there is no radio remote activation to reverse the points to depart the crossing loop. With the crew being in possession of a Train Authority permitting them to depart the crossing loop, one of the drivers leaves the cab, walks to the processer and battery box, opens the control panel and awaits the run down, and can then press the button to reverse the points. That driver then gets back into the cab and the train can depart. After the whole train has cleared the points, they will automatically reset to the main line.
I thought we had long freight trains over here!!
Kan????
Gauge 1600 mm??
I believe it's standard gauge-1435 mm (4' 8½").
@@donaldthomas7070 Certainly is. Parts of the transcontinental route have been regauged (from 1 067 mm and 1 600 mm), but this section (from Port Augusta to Kalgoorlie) was the last to be built and was always standard gauge.
Trains - Brought to you by England.
I used to live near the Ghan Railway line in Woomera. We used to get 2 trains a week through. In the 2 years I was there, 2 people managed to get killed when they were hit by a train. At the crossing, visibility was about 3km in either direction and there were boom gates. 😳 🙄
You can make a system foolproof. But you can't make it sod proof.
Nice video, but you stoped too early ,; would be nice to see you pull out on the track with your train...
He had to stop videoing and put his phone down so he could drive.
Choo choo! I'm a train and I approve this video!!!!
