    One of 4 stations I worked at as a JSA in 65/66;being ,Geelong,Camperdown,Timboon,Allansford.I then worked at Penshurst then Hamilton before leaving in august 66 to join the loco at mile end in S.A.This is a beautiful part of the line specially thru the stoney rises.

    Thank you for sharing your view of the world, as passengers we only get a "side view" lol. My brother in-law drives and teaches drivers on the N Class Loco!! Have you done Southern Cross to Bairnsdale video? N Class is the first and last at Bairnsdale Station as Vline are cautious leaving the VLocity is case of vandalism :)

      I have done Traralgon to Southern Cross in an N class. The link is below. I have a Bairnsdale to Southern Cross video that needs to be edited then uploaded. Glad you enjoy the videos 👍😀

    Enjoying travelling with you. I'm glad you noted where the old stations were located as there is no trace of them now.

      If you didn't know they were there, you could easily zip right past a lot of them and not even realise. Glad you enjoyed it 👍 🙂

    Looks like a very pretty train line. I'm guessing one of the magpies at 5:23 was a fraction slow taking off.

      He was slow but lucky. He almost got hit but managed to miss the loco, just. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍 😀

    I always wondered what the deal was with the carriages strewn off the side of the tracks at 14:50

    • @driver667
      @driver667  9 місяців тому

      A derailment many years ago. It was not worth recovering those wagons. 👍🙂

    I was at penshurst on the 14/02/66,D.C dayakso during the day the staff sections could be ,Colac-Pirron Yallock- Pomporneit-Camperdown
    At nite it could be just Colac-Camperdown.

    is that an old station at pirron yallock? Nothing like a good old country train ride. So the train we are watching here, how long will it be in service for and what happens to such a train when it is put out to pasture...does it become a goods train? Bundy wasn't on special today so just a Carlton Draught, but cheers to you for brightening our days/or nights up!

    • @driver667

      That building is the old station. It is heritage listed. This train is to be changed to a VLocity some time next year. This locomotive will eventually see service hauling freight trains. 👍🙂
