You're not missing anything great. I've lived in Melbourne and adelaide for around the same amount if years. Adelaide roads, drivers, people, food, pizzas, housing and utility costs are shit. For quality of life Melbourne and Brisbane are tops. Adelaide is so broken down and poorly run it lags behind some third world countries.
@@jacintaedwards1123 Well don't come here then. Typical snotty Victorian that looks your nose down at anything outside of Victoria. Here's a tip from an ex Sydneysider. As liveable as Melbourne is, if Adelaide's job market improved it'd be ten times more liveable than Melbourne.
Don't waste your money. Adelaide is a third world dump. shit roads, shit people, shit drivers, shit trains, shit food, extremely high prices and no decent rental properties. Go to Perth or Brisbane instead.
@@Adelaide_Transit Hmmmm, Sorry I don't see the quality of life you speak of. In Adelaide I see very poor roads, very aggressive and unskilled drivers, poor quality of produce, very high vehicle costs, very high utility costs, high rental prices on par with Melbourne now yet wages are lower. The people are miserable and childish, far too inquistive for my liking. Shit weather in summer. Nope, Melbourne has enjoyed the highest standards of living since 1860. I know because I've reserached this topic well. Perth was always not far behind Melbourne, now Brisbane takes 2nd place. Adelaide is miles behind Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. Adelaide is a third world town with poor infrastructure and very very bad roads!
I once saw a Seaford or Flinders to Adl train and a Belair to Adl right beside eachother at this station. It was weird. It was like they were racing...
Thanks for a great video. I think you said replacing Keswick Station? I remember us boarding the Ghan at Keswick station prior to it going through to Darwin. What is SA gauge apart from Standard for Indian Pacific etc.
@@geoffreymoore1510 Oh really? I think you'd be ok. they would offer you plenty of support needed on the trip. I think its easily the finest train journey in the southern hemisphere. The Indian Pacific I believe would be boring. The Ghan goes through different types of landscapes. I'd rather see Alice Springs and Darwin over a shithole like sydney every time!
Nice to meet you, I am a short-term exchange student in Adelaide. Adelaide trains are really cool！ By the way, I was thinking of making an Oto MAD at this station, but my schedule was so busy that I didn't have time to take a slow video, so could I borrow this video?
Why didn't the State Govt just call this station "Wayville"? The showgrounds aren't used very often and it would be far easier to print timetables and signs with one word instead of two. Maybe that's too difficult for adelaide people to understand???
@@peterkehoe1984 They don't? then how come the company I work for prints and packages them? So you stupidly believe that adel showgrounds station is not in Wayville? will somebody in Adelaide grow a brain and show some common sense and logic for once. Why don't they rename Emerson station to Black Forest because thats where it is located?
Can someone please explain this obsession with stainless-steel sides on these new trains? First V-Line and now Adelaide. It makes the trains seem as though they were designed for service in the 1930’s, and built from newly-rediscovered management plans from that era! Can’t new trains have simple metal panels which can be painted in the fleet colours. The trains would look a lot more attractive, and not so stark!
I don’t know either, but also Perth and Brisbane have these stainless steel designs. It’s mainly because it was designed by Bombardier, but I’m not sure why.
@@jacintaedwards1123 Adelaides trains are renowned for being incredibly clean and graffiti free, the seats are comfortable with ample leg room in both the 3000 and 4000 classes
@@Adelaide_Transit Well that may be true about the Electric trains however the Diesel trains running to Belair are a different story. I have spoken with a few of the drivers and they tell me they are unreliable, break down regularly and they are slow. I know this because I have ridden the Belair line many times over the last 2 years. Adelaide station is an absolute disgrace. its dirty, ugly, dark and looks like something from the New York subway in the 1970s. They need to have a high roof and have the platforms lit up a lot more. And more display screens on the platforms. Just go and see Flinders Street, Southern Cross and Perth's central station for inspiration.
This is my last video for 2020. Hope everyone has a great new years and let's hope for a better 2021!
Been waiting for a video like this! Good job
I love the sound that the train makes
Has the same sound as Perth Trains and QLD trains
I’ve been to Adelaide once as a young one, but I really didn’t see anything of it. But I’ll go to it again one day.

i love this channel :)
5:05 no Indian pacific livery on NR 29 back then
What is the time that trains go from Adelaide to Seaford every 20mins
This must have been ages ago because the 3000 classes are still in the yellow scheme.
The video description said Jan 2018
@@TrebleSketch my mistake sorry
@@jimbojhonson4121 No fuss though!
What? They still are yellow. I catch the Belair train every now and then and they're still yellow.
@@garynewton1263 nah they're not. all Adelaide metro trains are now in the red/blue scheme

Broad gauge like in Victoria.
@@peterkehoe1984 Ha so a couple of states agreed on gauge. Do you know what WA is apart from Standard? I know Qld is narrow.
You still board the Ghan at Keswick, nothing has changed.

Nobody under 70 uses printed timetables anymore. We do have smart phones for a reason.

Melbourne metro trains have been like it since like forever too, i think it comes from American style trains.
I'm more interested in how they look on the inside and how comfortable the seats are!
