N 467 arriving at Stratford. 9:58pm. 7th August 2024
Phone video and audio this time, no editing.
Was taking photos at the same time and using a light for different effects. So that's why it goes light and dark.

N 459 on the down evening Bairnsdale train at Stratford. 21:50. This time recorded on my Nikon B500 mounted on a monopod with stand (is it still a monopod if it has 3 small stabilising legs on the base?) and audio recorded on my Zoom H2n clamped to the monopod. Volume up! :)

This one didn't go quite according to plan as my phone wasn't recording video when I thought that it was. So there's no picture until 2:08 where we see the train depart. The camera app timed out and turned off which is what alerted me to the fact something was wrong. Otherwise there'd be no video at all. Otherwise, if you enjoy train audio, then turn the sound up, sit back and enjoy. ;-)

While working on the Gippsland Vehicle Collection's layout at Maffra on Monday 24.6.24, I replaced a section of damaged track between two modules (layout sections) and after cleaning the track, decided to send a train over it. Expecting that it would run a couple of metres before hitting unpowered track, to my surprise, the train ran perfectly along the newly energised track and kept going over...

    This is in Bernard Street in the southern Melbourne suburb of Cheltenham. There are two sets of pedestrian traffic lights in this street alone that have a red and an orange light at the same time before turning green. The other set is located further east next to a school. To my knowledge only one of them changes to green like this now. This is memorabilia, because this set is the set that no longer changes to green in this manner.

      I have photos of both crossings before they were upgraded. I've not actually been back there since, but streetview shows that both crossings have had their electromechanical controllers replaced, so I'd be surprised if either of them still have the red and amber on before green now. They also had the older pedestrian buttons when I photographed them. All gone now.

      Interesting conclusion: how would you encourage pedestrians to wait patiently? I suspect you would turn their signal red several seconds in advance of giving the crossing traffic a green light. Why are you certain that’s not happening here?

    Our Government are so stupid to get rid of country railways, especially Warburton, Mansfield, Wonthaggi and many other lines. With the high cost of fuel, car registration, insurance and running/keeping cars, it would have been better and cheaper if people used trains instead. Without country towns trains the cost of travel is passed on the people with their own cars. So, people thought who needs trains when we can buy a car and travel wherever we like? Yes, exactly right, but given the cost of buying and running a car is sky high (depending on the car, engine size and weight), one needs to ask is it worth spending money buying a car and then spending more to run and maintain it? Cost of running a car to get to work daily, which includes all expenditures, e.g. yearly registration, insurance, tires, brakes, petrol, oil, service and repair is close to 10-15 thousands. Travelling by train is around 1000 to 2000 dollars, depending on distances travelled. It could be more or less than 1000 or 2000 dollars yearly. A massive saving that could see you paying mortgage and debts in no time. These days are not like the 40-50's with steam trains, nah, they have faster and cleaner trains with heater and air conditioners. But then, if people want to own cars and keep the Arabs richer, that's their business. However when people are in deep debts, they are refusing to realise that it's two things that drain them out of money, 1) it's their cars, large fat shit boxes that eat you out of house and home. 2) It's the people's heavy lead-foot driving habit, always pushing the pedal flat to the floor Jack Rabbit style, without a care in the world that bad driving habits waste more fuel, brakes, tyres, engine wear at tear, etc. Nah! They don't think about these things. They get up in the morning and trash the fat shit box to work, or drop kids to schools, then rush to work or shops at flat-out revs. In the afternoon, finish work, flat out to pick up kids, then flat out - rush home, then flat out - rush to women's gym, rush home to feed the family. And so are the men, in utes in particulars with and without trailers loaded with heavy tools, excavators, etc., flat out - to get home, only to be stuck bumper to bumper with other lead-foots, not giving a care about the handling behaviour of a loaded vehicle and trailer. Hard acceleration and hard braking, causing premature wear and tear of engine, brakes, tyres, etc., and an increase in fuel wastage. What would have the fuel lasted you at least a week, you're back at the bowser 3 days later. I am on the road 2-3 times per week, I watch all these stupid people who rush flat out to and from like bats out of hell, brain bead maniacs who have no consideration about being reasonable on the use of an important resource, petrol. Nah, flat out they go, then they have accidents, them they have to pay insurance premiums because it's their faults. Bloody hell, is this what every racing driver can do these days. The question is, how do they manage to keep themselves and their families when the car guzzles down half their income? Better go back on trains and work in factories like the good old days when jobs were plenty (and now they're all in China). In my days thousands of workers walked to work and thousands went by train. Only a few living away from stations and work took their cars. Think about it, how much you pay for yearly registration, insurance, other expenditures, etc., you will understand. If you dont, then you have no brains, probably fried omelette as brains. Don't own a car, like my friend did 2 years ago, see how much money you can have. Try 10 years without a car and you will soon have 100,000 in saving. 15 years and you will have your home paid off.

      @emdB67 5 років тому

      I was very fortunate with the track. It came from a model engineer only a few minutes from home. He had previously changed from 5" to 7¼" gauge and so it was surplus to his needs. Some of it was in very poor condition. I just started out using the better sections and have replaced the sleepers on some of the rotted ones. I had wanted to build or buy some track for my own backyard line, but there always seemed to be other priorities. So once I had the track, those other "priorities" were "downgraded in importance". ;-)

    This is almost like a Dutch traffic light signal. Here in Germany, where I live by the way, the pattern is a bit different: when the light switches to green, red is still on and the yellow light lights up for 1 or 2 seconds, then the red and yellow lights turn off and the green light turns on. And when it switches to red, the green light turns off, then the yellow one lights up for 3 seconds. And finally, the red light turns on. With halogen bulbs, the light fades in the same way as the traffic light in this video.

      I think the idea is that they're better on the roughly-laid track and tight curves of the kinds of lines they ran on - which were often logging lines. It would also spread the weight better, has all wheels powered and perhaps has less vibration without the side rods being spun around from horizontal cylinders.
