    I was searching for something of yours through Stawell and was very pleased to find this, and with the mighty C Class Leader in charge as a bonus!. I've researched the old Grampians line and wanted to see if you showed where it diverged from the mainline. You didn't let me down! A few months ago I found it and walked it from there to the Western Hwy. I've also now been able to map the last section from Fyans Creek to Heatherlie thanks to the State Library. I can't wait to get back there to complete the job. Thanks again!

    Lately I've been getting into cab-view videos from all over the world. I've noticed on many different locomotives, German, Swiss and French there's this "time bomb" ticking in the cab and here's the ticking in this locomotive as well.
    I've left comments asking what that ticking sound is and never had a reply. So, may I ask you what that ticking sound is ?
    I love the old VR livery and this machine is so shiny and clean, just another throwback to my growing up in Broadmeadows right next to the railway line. There's a signal about 100 meters away from where we used to live and often the trains would stop and wait a while. Then when they got clearance the sounds of the locomotives winding up and the wagons, clunking as the locomotives took up the slack was awesome, even in the middle of the night.

    • @driver667
      @driver667  10 місяців тому +1

    what amazes me the most is all the switches that you have to go thru. someone, somewhere has to make sure that ALL the switches are set right for your entire journey and YOU have to trust that someone did their job right. that would be a headache for me and probably give me a lot of anxiety.

      And I have a responsibility to ensure I am going the right way also as the signalling often indicates where the points are set to take me. A joint effort between signaller and driver 👌👍😀

      @@driver667 Like American USA, Australian immigrants named many new towns after their originals in Britain. Horsham just one example.

    You can tell this is in America simply because the driver's on the wrong tracks! I was amazed that there wasn't a major incident - but then, the more I watched and thought about it, all the other drivers are on the wrong tracks as well, so, strangely, this seemed to negate the possibility of absolute carnage. It's actually quite clever - if everybody drives on the wrong tracks, there won't be any accidents. Bravo!

    • @driver667
      @driver667  11 місяців тому

      An interesting theory 😀 It's here in Australia and the signalling allows the trains to run on either track in either direction safely 👍 But I like what you wrote. Glad you enjoyed it. 🤣👍😀
