Butler Station REDONE
With the opening of the Yanchep Line, services around Butler have changed dramatically. The station has become a through station and many bus services have been amended with new routes connecting to Alkimos Station and Primary School. Since it's been about four years since my original station video at Butler Station, which was very minimalistic and didn't explain the history surrounding the construction of the Butler extension and the proposals of a Brighton Station to also be built, I have gone ahead and redone this station video now, just like I did for the old Armadale Station a few years ago. It has turned out very long after explaining all the history and doing thorough train and bus spotting of the new services, but it's the last station video for another few months, so I hope you learn something and enjoy!

Starting off with the 323 extension service which starts on Old York Road to provide an inbound service for passengers towards Midland since Old York Road is only served by outbound services towards Mundaring, Chidlow and Wundowie.

      Some trains have a defect in their motor that make them sound like that in specific carriages at specific speeds, although I've noticed they can be fixed too since 94 used to sound like that and doesn't anymore. Enthusiasts call them "plane sets" since they almost sound like a jet plane. I think it's really cool to have some variety to the sound and it sounds so much better than the normal acceleration and deceleration sounds.

    Looking back at this video, there are so many disappointing differences from what was displayed in this to what is displayed now. First one is the Yanchep sign being black now after it was displayed as green in this video. And another major difference is the screen displays on the trains in regular service atm don’t have any images or the time or anything that was shown on this display, just the station names.

Trains still need to stop at certain points waiting for another train which travels an opposite direction on the same track to pass! That is a joke in comparison to.... any railway network esp.

    The nuance of North Adelaide is that its houses sit up on the hill caused by the para fault line which travels north-northeast from the Torrens lake near the weir all the way out to Gawler. The train line has to stay on the plains to the west of the fault, which it does all the way to gawler. As North Adelaide station is at the bottom of the hill, well away from north Adelaide's residences, it gets no use. It's like the monarchy, there for pretty much ceremonial purposes only.
