Jack great video
Thanks
Why didnt you record in melton level crossing exford road
Brother this is a marvellous video my boy keep it up, what camera?
Thanks, my camera is a Sony HDR-CX405
This is very close to Scandinavian Crescent
Yes it is
bro rickrolled me
Rip the general signals e-bells type 1 😔
The crossing lost its last EB gate mechanism and hybrid bell the new gate mechanism is a wch and hybrid bell replaced with a safetran type 3 in 2022:(
I was hoping you would pair the mechanical bells. That’s what I used to love was hearing two different tones in the mechanical bells. The AT&SF here in the USA used to have some really good sounding pairs in the old days.
Bro really made the barker technique sound like the safetran type 1
1:28 He has lost 249 000 australia dollars ! The correct answer is eight ! You've just won AU$1 000 the winner ! Congadulations ! TOTAL PRIZE WON : $1 000 !
1 track signs. Pretty rare
1 of 4 level crossings in Victoria with them
Oink oink
Both sides are exactly the same as each other
I saw this train over my back fence
Nice
Ironic it’s maintained by an operator that hasn’t run trains up there in decades.
V/Line maintains railway lines that don’t see passenger trains
Interesting crossing, I wish it were easier to film trains up Mildura wat
Same. To film all the active level crossings between Red Cliffs and Merbein I’d need to see over 20 trains.
Only Tuesday Thursday and Saturday trains run through Mildura
Yes I know
Very dangerous roundabout level crossing
These 3 passive level crossings in Mildura are way more dangerous. Eighth Street: maps.app.goo.gl/YgaWZvn9XqMgZts19?g_st=ic Ninth Street: maps.app.goo.gl/Vo5bqq9dbCG7Lzbv9?g_st=ic Tenth Street: maps.app.goo.gl/sNahWi2Phn73iotU9?g_st=ic
How so? There’s two of them up here and I don’t think there’s ever been a collision at either. There’s some far more dangerous ones in Mildura that don’t even have active protection
@@lachlanbaker2031 the other one in Mildura has boom gates
Those passive level crossings are way more dangerous than the flashing light level crossings
@@jacktherailwayenthusiast3343 plus Tenth Street is 700m from Sunraysia Resort, which is a busy road
Just wanting to let you know that this crossing is known as the Savage Street Pedestrian Crossing due to its location across Henty Street from Savage Street.
Rip pedestrian boom gates
What an idiot at 15:08. If there was a train approaching platform 1 at the station you would have captured the car being cleaned up
I saw a button on the pole. 😂
The crossing has hinged gates
It has a hinged gate on the southern side. It will be featured in an update video soon.
0:25 bogan
Sounds like a pedestrian crossing with boom gates
What's up with the 3-car Comeng?
Driver training
I like the hybrid E-Bell combo Also sorry for late comment, I was on three trains
Same
I went on 3
Rip hybrids
Damn
Doggy! 1:24
Very beautiful video 📹 😮
Thanks
Pretty hard to see on Street View
Yes it is
The title is Murrayville, not Ouyen BTW, I like the tall signal that looks like a cantilever
Fixed. The tall signal is actually a train signal mast.
Ah cool
Although both large railway crossing signs are in the shot it sort of ruins it by being so far away. Next time try not to sacrifice the shot to get those signs in.
Reminds me of Mallee Highway, Murrayville (western end), but the curve on the level crossing compared to Murrayville which is straight
Same
This reminds me of the Mallee crossing at Panyita
Same, except the south western flashing signal there had a white pole. Mallee Highway, Boinka also reminds me of the now removed disused level crossing at Mallee Highway, Murrayville (western side)
@@jacktherailwayenthusiast3343it does The Mallee Highway I think has the most crossings that look similar to each other
Nice catch Jack!
Thanks Michael
Excellent
Thanks Tom
Awesome 👍
Thanks Paul
Nice bells
They sure are
@@jacktherailwayenthusiast3343 l like the first bell sound it is the regular us railway crossing bell
were you behind the yellow line at east camberwell? does not look like it
Yes I was
I rid the Frankston line parallel run with the Tait and Steam
Nice
rip to those hybrids, Nice vid tho
Thanks
Fantastic
Thanks
The teardrop has since died. I found out from a video of Redhen334's
Fingers crossed they can get it operating again.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Yes it’s very sad that the interlocking gates are no longer there
Must’ve been a malfunction (that’s very common in level crossings) because there was no freight
No it’s an animation. The clip is a screenshot of the level crossing off Google Maps with flashing lights superimposed. The bell sound effect is of the Brunt Road level crossing in Baxter.
It looks a lot different now since March 2015 they put 4 Boom gates and GS E Bell in still in the roundabout as I call it (rail roundabout) and has no lights over the cross bucks now under the cross bucks
Did you make a run before the rain that day i remember it rain that afternoon and wind hail and thunderstorms it turned from 30C to 16C in hours of the day on Saturday 13th March 2021
Look at that dark circle hail clouds on 14th November 25:10
This was my closest crossing to home.
Can I use some footage of the crossing in action?
Sure, just be sure to credit me please
@@jacktherailwayenthusiast3343 this is for my top 10 fav Australian crossings
Right
