Manor is the next station past Werribee Racecourse for the bluestone quarry that crushed the bluestone in to ballast

3:37 lol 😂

Westona is basically a diamond intersection.

I like the train content...sticking your mug into the camera at every chance is a put off for me.

4:02 missed springvale

How much distance between this station and Flinders street station? I assume it was ridiculously small and the main reason it would have been closed

Try doing the race when the doors close that's gonna be tough

Did you mean 1889

"Hey, Mr. Kerrigan, Daryl. There is a young Science Fiction promoter here." "What does he want ?" "Train- and Tram Lines all over Victoria" "Tell'm he's dreamin'..." "Hey, ah, hold it. How much does he want ?" "Just a few A$, collected by extremely low fares and free travel for Seniors each year in October for 1 week" "Tell'm he's dreamin' ..." "Yeah, sure ... Maybe, the free travel on Christmas Day should be scrapped to finance the ideas ..."

6:00 Where is this ... Row Ville ... ? Never heard of it ... On my maps from before 1788 the area is marked as "most of the time uninhabited".

Heck of a lot of accidents caused by late trains.

Had to stop and rewind to 4:21 thinking "there's no way that I saw what I think I saw..." Yeah, no, I did see what I thought.

Hi Max, I hope you are well. Cheers Steve

When are you making a new video

"collaptions"?

Nice jogging!

You might want to make a Hurstbridge line video.

Make a Mernda line video please.

Make a Craigieburn line video!

St Kilda station is kinda new. The old one was burnt to the ground somewhere around the early 90s i think. Very cool you mentioned the loop line that linked Windsor Station. The siding is still at Windsor(now a park)and is followable with a little imagination and a satelite map. The tressel bridge over St Kilda Road for it was something else. Nice vid man

Great, entertaining production, Max!

Nothing here about Manor? Situated a further 3 or 4 miles on from the Racecourse, not far from the old Wests Road tip. Also saw a comment below about the old Bellarine Peninsula line to Queenscliff, would be good to see some history on that as very little is in public forum save for the book Trains Troops and Tourists by Paul Kenny.

I never realized we had all these accidents in Victoria, a well put together account of these terrible accidents , thank you for posting . Condolences to all those involved . With a bit of luck the crossing removal operations in Melbourne will also happen out in the country areas improving safety. On the crossing removals , i happened to be going for a walk in reservoir around one of the footy ovals and thought id take a look at the nearby k eon park railway station which has been recently upgraded with the raising of the rail tracks to get rid of the rail, road crossing. I think they did a bloody good job , it's just a pity it took so long for the authorities to get these dangerous crossings upgraded.

actually would be interested on an entire video about oakleigh station.. as its one of my frequents

4:25: they weren't driving an old Ford. This is the 1925 model, so brand new at the time of the accident.

Great vid. 👏. Still waiting for the Campbellfield station to reopen. Connectivity with the 902 on camp rd bus would be fantastic. .

That was a good video mate.

Did Ford Melbourne ever have a catering company which used to supply the big tourist ships in 1959?

Carn the borough love Port ❤️

Werribee racecourse station is an underground rave location every 20 years that has a strict invite only at certain times of the year. My last rave there was 2007 and I’m looking forward to the next one in 2027. Excellent video by the way🥸👍

Why did trains stop at Springvale cemetery? Because it was a dead end!

Great content 👍🏻

The crossing in Horsham has been replaced with another crossing. There is however a crossing on Edith St to Dooen rd that has had many accidents and is due to be fixed and/or removed.

yes one to Rowville

Great work.

The outer cirlce line was to originally take fresh farm produce from East Victoria to the markets. There was no govt railways back then transport was funded by businesses who took huge risks with their own money. Then without any help from the govermment, they Victorian Govt started making theor own roads and railways and undercut businesses.

"Why are these old lines turned into bike paths?" The government really does not like giving up its land, it may be an old road or a train right-of-way. The government knows that if it wanted to do something with the land in the future, it would be expensive to buy back. Also, much of the land is unusable for anything else. too narrow or is at the bottom of a cutting

The Kerang accident was not the driver did not swerve to miss the train. He actually could not see the flashing lights due to the intense fog and hit the train and due to the direction of the trains travel it dragged the truck around and caused the dig into the carriage

WELL THE MONTAGUE STREET BRIDGE IS CERTAINLY A BIG HIT THESE DAYS WELL FREQUENTLY HIT ANYWAY

Are you alive?

Awesome. Assume this got you into the course of your choice? Congratulations.

Have been watchin The Train Man's videos for a while now. For one quite young, he has an amazing presence and clearly does his research well. For the record, Glen Waverley is my home station, but given the parkiing, I always go to Mt Waverley. Might see you Max. Well done.
