I love this so much
I am very happy to hear you enjoy them 👍 😀
Love the weather. Makes for variety.
That's what I thought when I decided that I will post it. 👍😊 Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Why have I never seen your channel before? These are awesome. Thank you for sharing!
So glad to hear you enjoy them 👍 😊 Thank you 👍
Thanks so this mini series from Traralgon to Bairnsdale which is a lot of the time forgotten as we are in the abyss beyond Traralgon. So thanks again and keep the awesome train content coming 👍🏼☺
Glad you enjoyed the ride past the regional city of Traralgon. I'll keep it coming 👍😊
Another fantastic video completes the set
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the ride 😀 👍
@@driver667 yes quite fantastic how you do that
Awesome trip to Bairnsdale
Glad you enjoyed it 👍 😊
Thanks for another great instalment! Much enjoyed.
Very happy to hear you liked it 🙂 👍
15:55 "Skippy " crosses the track.Thanks for sharing. Will there be a return trip video?
As long as they get across safely, I'm happy 😊 👍
shame on the rotten weather but I enjoyed it I love the flashing light at each crossing very bright light you can see it for kms
I thought about not posting this due to the weather but then thought, it is something a little different to a sunny day every time. 👍😊
@@emdB67 that would be nice 👍 🙂
I didn't think that the weather was too bad, considering that it's late Autumn. I hope Melbourne can squeeze out a few more sunny days before I go back to Springtime in Vancouver in a couple of weeks.
@@YoungHarry1000 you may be lucky and get a few more sunny days. Fingers crossed 🤞 😊👍
Bairnsdale is my favourite place ever
It is a nice place 👍🙂
Amazing Video/s of the Bairnsdale Line! Loving all the drivers views!! They have been very useful for updating my railway crossing map (with what equipment each crossing has)!!
May I ask if you have any planned drivers views for the Swan Hill, Echuca or Maryborough Line? Those are 3 Lines I would really like to see coverage of!!
Glad to hear you enjoyed them. Yes I plan on covering all those lines plus more over time. Thanks for watching 👍😊
Bairnsdale Station!!!😁👍
Yep, your favourite 👍👍
My dad used to drive this line before he retired a few years ago
Ah yes, if it's who I think it is based at Bairnsdale, I've worked with him. Good fellow 👍🙂
I'm going on my first train in 4 days
Hope you enjoy your trip 😊 👍
Can you Do a Long Loud Big Horn on the N Class Locomotives in the Next Video Soon Colin..?
There will be an N class run coming up soon 👍🙂🙂
Im throughly enjoying your videos of Victoria. Is it possible to put the track's recommended speed on display. Definitely better than 100 kph.
Track speeds vary in sections and for different types of trains. Some of the videos have the maximum speed for that train in the description but not on the video. The curves with restricted speeds are shown on the video. The maximum speed of the train in this video is 100kph. 👍😊
Thankyou for that info. I've notice signs for restricted speed and NS I assume for normal speed.
@@NejMoss4873 correct 👍😊
Looking at some old videos, the line through to Orbost was most picturesque, now a rail trail,probably a victim of the looney report
The line to Orbost survived up until 1987 and you are right, it was very picturesque 👍😊
What is beyond the Bairnsdale station, where the remaining tracks lead?
They go nowhere. There is enough track to allow the locomotive to run around the train and that's all. The line used to go through to Orbost but it was cut back years ago. 👍😀
The biggest distance between stations on that line
Yes it is 👍😊
I wonder if you're aware of (the remains of) a significant piece of historic rollingstock that you pass in the first half of this video? I suspect that trees mask the view of it from the railway though, but can be seen from the adjacent road if you know when and where to look.
I am not aware of that piece of rolling stock. 🤔
1ABC
@@emdB67 great find 👍🙂
Wonder if the line goes beyond that @ Bairnsdale? If so where and how long for pls?
It used to go to Orbost but it is now closed and removed from the end of the yard at Bairnsdale. 👍😊
Now for the important question, is it 'bairnsdale' or 'barnsdale'?
Well..... that depends on which school you went to. 🤔😆👍
Imma call it Burnsdale.
I guess your Driving the N Class Locomotive from Bairnsdale to Melbourne in the Next Video
It will be along soon 👍🙂
What type of braking system is usef on your vlocity trains.
They use a hydrodynamic brake down to low speed then an electro pneumatic friction brake (disc) is used through to a stand. 👍😊
Thankyou for that info.
@@NejMoss4873 👍
BTW y do u use horn a lot?
Safety of any one nearby 👍😊
@@driver667 thanks
