Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- Videos of some of the many steam excursion trips that operated in the greater Sydney area during 2015.
Steam preservation was alive & well in the Sydney region during 2015!
I really love steam Locomotives they seem to have a personality, sound & smell. Being born in 51 close to Mortdale station I never got bored with them ...
brian critchley i was born in 01 and im still never get bored of aussie steam
mainly VR
Lucky you all that has happened since I was born was a2 986 restoration and withdrawal of p class engines
Lucky,I was born in a hospital
brian critchley 👍Yes. We know the feelings . 😎Cool.
Great video. I saw the AD60 class loco run this weekend at my town this past weekend.
What a nice compilation of clips from 2015, very enjoyable!
jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjmmnnnnmmnnnmmmmmm
Awesome compialtion of all the Steam Trains.
Nice compilation Mitch. Well done. Was on the inaugural 6029 trip from Goulburn to Thirlmere. Great loco. I do hope it's not sold for scrap.
Love byer Garret rode it in 2018 or 17 can’t remeber
6029 is in limbo currently.
Laid up out of service due to her owning body becoming insolvent.
A great shame as she was restored to service only 3 years ago.
The AD 60 class is both the largest and modernest of the Beyer- Garrett type locomotive. The last was great delivered to New South Wales railways in 1957

Enjoyed your video, as ex steam fireman/driver in the UK it was much appreciated. Kind regards
really ? excellent i have a question for you then .. why is it sometimes you see a steam train working hard and it have nay a whiff of barely visible smoke other times billowing clouds of white steam and other times still the blackest smoke this side of 17th century coalbrokedale ?
4:37 i mean for example these 2 here ... i've seen semi trucks putting out more black smoke than these two
5:47 like this here what just happened ? evidentiality they didn't just start using the "picturesque black smoke coal" right ? but all of a sudden boomf
@@firefox5926 The driver has just closed the regulator so there is less air being drawn through the fire, so less air means more smoke.
@@firefox5926 They have a good fire that is well alight, soon the fireman will need to start shovelling coal and they will smoke. In a perfect world they will emit a grey smoke.
They are effectively 2 Loco's under one large Boiler with one crew. if the UK opperators had bought from Bayer Garret the designers and not tried to influence them then I think a lot more would have been used
Merci pour ces superbes vues de locomotive! Vive la vapeur.....
Great engines & video. So 😎🆒cool. Than you.
The Garratts are truly fascinating! We never used these in North America to my knowledge.
Not required! An innovative way of fitting a larger/more powerful engine within a small loading gauge. A North American one could have been huge!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
This is some fine looking locomotives. Are they still running today. I would do anything just to get that smell and to listen to that sound again. Born in 1967 but we had a railway line in Kensington Cape Town just 20 meters from our home. That was the line that ran into the military base called Wingfield.
9:27 The diesel at the rear of the train, is to power electronic power and extra support through the hills.
The train was operating in the Sydney suburbs between regular services. The diesel hauled the train back to Sydney Central after a very fast turn-round.

Love train video very much
That is one big steam engine
Very good video
Thanks for the visit
Cool video!
Nice look
very good
the Garrett is the best
Good times on the steam trains NSW
i have seen both those trains at 0:25
also at 5:10
I think I saw that/those trains
Beauty! Thank you!
Awesome trains ! :)
2:59 donald and douglas :D
I always thought 6029 looked weird.
That Garrett as a squealing airpump
Never saw something like that
So they are Garretts?? I think that the Victoria Falls Railroad in South Africa or in Zimbabwe may be the only two places in the world where Garretts are still running on a daily basis. What a beast. Would like to see one in the US along side the Big Boy 4414 the UP is restoring. It would be so cool to see a foreign, design built locomotive like a Garrett on American rails.
Yes, built by Beyer-Peacock, in the UK in 1954. Australia also built a design for narrow gauge (3ft6in) - the Australian Standard Garratt.
3RTracing Take the garratt to the USA? It wouldn't be the first time a preserved loco has done it. That idea is so "out there" it's brilliant. Would certainly be a sight to see.

3RTracing i want a german br52 in the US....
Great video,I must be getting old,rode in lot's of steam trains,just sayin'
Everyone is taking pictures of the *old* trains and not the new, modern, fancy trials?!

Are these regular passenger trains or only meant for short ride excursions?
+Thomas Johnston Excursions only, there are 5-6 steam locomotives active & allowed on the public rail lines in NSW at the moment, so excursions are quite regular!
Nice video!
You know why senders don’t have pistons
Great review Mitch, but where's the "Great Steam Train" race?
+Howie's Rail Videos It somehow slipped past me!
oh my god what happen to this trains
Linda locomotiva e vagões
There are several ideas for diy railroad layout construction
Find a proven set of plans online
Find a mate who wants to build one too so you have someone to encourage you
(I learned these and why they work on Jareks Hobby Club site )
THANKS FOR VIDEO ON NSW RAILROAD

may i ask a stupid question....did the 60 class garrett pull passenger. ..... i remember them at wellington nsw but only ever remember them pulling heavy mixed freight or wheat trains
+Greg Andrews No, not in general service - only for heavy freight
very nice but "operator " cabin need to revise,case "reverse/atrash situation"
why are all their wheels squeaking? they don't seem well maintained.
I believe tis more about the light track. This track is only used by the Rail Museum now.
Why did the loco at 5:54 suddenly go from very clear smoke to thick grey/black smoke?
Is bad coal
What is that giant box for on front of the Garrett? Someone let me know please...
The Garratt is like 2 steam locos in one. In front of the fboiler is the water tank, coal on the rear.
Oh right. Thanks!
SuperChris153 . It is one of her two water tanks.
in and out of ...focus..??
Early days!
