Great footage,

Seven news outdo music goes hard

Scenes that were regularly seen all across the UK at the time! Thanks for uploading! Amazing all them people on or near the track at Carrog!

Even now can Don river railway trains run on Tasrail?

Hi is it still operating the little loco

How long will the testing for the Ellenbrook line be?

They are now doing timetabled testing and running at line speed with multiple trains on both tracks

ive awarded you a gold star for patience and persistence for waiting for that train to get to the places you filmed it. i wonder what an emergency stop would look like at 5kmh. watching a train at 10kmh and 5kmh is a better aid to sleep than counting sheep

Hi What is happening with the rolling stock at Pinjarra can they be operating

I prefer this Prospector to the new one.

Fantastic footage

Only just found this!, very nice!,,,, i think i might know who was firing that, on that trip.......

Beautiful Train

Just been looking through some family home videos on Video8 tapes, incredibly the old camcorder still works! ... Found some footage taken at Whistlestop. I remember Whistlestop Miniature Railway, in it's heyday it was very popular with the kids (including the grown up ones!!). I remember going there as a teenager in about 2003. So sad to hear that it closed down. I can still remember the TV ad jingle, "All aboard for Whistlestop, on the Vasse Highway near Busselton..." Grainy Google Earth imagery shows the deterioration of the site over the past 15-20 years :( ... Memories...

Feels like yesterday

What a shame she is now sitting in a shed going nowhere with little or no hope of ever running mainline passenger services again.We really need a rethink on mainline access for tourist/heritage rail here in Western Australia.If it can be done over East I am sure we can do it here.All we need is somebody with some balls to allow this to happen.We are seriously missing out over here with no mainline tour trains at all. Way past time for change.

Beautiful country Neil, love the sound. thanks. 20:16

Wonderful footage

It was worth it,looks great.

Magic

Railway Post Office trains lasted 30 years longer in Britian than they did in America.

Why does it no longer go to Northcliffe?

Boans is being demolished ... Probably the people who wanted it gone were Burkie's mates.

I think 861 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works

A lovely series, unforgettable

1:42 ah, the memories 👍👍👍

I spent alot of time in my teenage years volunteering at the GVR. I moved away in the 80s. Was there for the station opening and again for the 40th anniversary. The Christmas lights events are spectacular and it's great to see the Railway prosper.

They categorically ruin Perth know wonder know one wants to go there

Very sad

Way behind European rail standards Cheaper than driving though, just saying.

From a time when mail/parcels was quicker. ..and by rail!! JG

Wizard Express 4-6-0 Hall Class Locomotive 0:27 [train whistle]

Mr. Water Rat: Dagnabbit! Loathin' wizards. Always showing up in every late for every duty. Overpaid and every services. I'm outta here.

Thank you for making this video! You just saved me many $$$ in fees to get it looked at, because here i was hitting the dang thing sideways until it clicked to get the key out scared of doing more damage! I have cleaned and re-lubricated the silver tab, however it still isnt engaging 100% of the time. I am yet to take off the other plastics around centre console to further inspect; however I know know its just a small tab contact and not the shifter mechanism! THANKYOU

When did we stop progressing on rails? Such a shame

Wow,hasn't perth grown up since then, the next building to get demolished is carillon city,this year,it runs from murray st mall to hay street mall and it was 4 floors high. Now its going to be modern and ugly.like the picadilly arcade,that's now has a tiny walking area,but the shops are twice as big. The art deco was brilliant before,now its dark and dinghy. No atmosphere at all now.

Great video.

Aap kaise ho ❤

I love it

Excellent layout used to work grain trains through Bencubbin sadly not much left just the loop and CBH at the Mukinbudun end of the station.The station building is now the local police station.

Very nice footage of our trains. Some of these are still running to this day!

The first scene is of ex Queensland Railways suburban passenger carriages. The were air braked as opposed the Westrail’s other narrow gauge rolling stock. The locomotive was a X class diesel. As best I can remember this video is prior the the Perth electrification. Really exciting time to be living in Perth.

Is this from 1987?

That S class looks fantastic.

Great stuff Neil! 😊

Hard to believe it was over 20 years ago!

More great footage Neil. A scene that has now been relegated to history.

Hi Neil. I'm curious to ask, how were your turntables operated considering the older rollingstock were vacuum brakes? I know westinghouse, but not really seen or understood your brake system. Cheers Adrian.

That how an engine should be worked. The blokes working her had her set right, little smoke, sweet exhaust cut off. I have always admired the WA V and W Classes. If only Queensland had of done likewise. Our BB18 1/4 engines were good to drive, but never sounded as nice as that, neither could they or the much old C19 class ever pull as much. Our Garratt was capable of 1300ton but never ever hauled that much in service. Thanks for sharing. I'm enjoying my WA holiday and hope to visit Hotham Valley and Pinjarra before I head home. Cheers.
