Great video John. Some fine drone scenes as well. It sounded like some Ghan cars had wheel flats. I would not be too happy having to listen to them for the duration of the ride!
14:13. A similar train to this freight train with two yellow diesel electric locomotives is a freight train from Adelaide to Perth in SW Australia hauling several refrigerated food wagons and several freight wagons carrying Brock refrigerated food containers.
Excellent video. In the video, you filmed a passenger train going from the Australian city of Adelaide via Alicesprings to Darwin. On the UA-cam channel Documetary Cental, I heard that the mentioned passenger train is 1km long.
You'd have to be spewing paying for the premium sleeper carriage only to have to listen to the flatspot wheel thumping for 4 days underneath the carriage...... bugger
Fantastic video John. You have given me some new scenic ideas for my model railway.
Great Northern Railway to the Red Centre. Cheers Peter.
Good to see it gave you some new ideas and thanks for the comment
Great video mate, good to see aussie trains running, and nice views too with the drone 👍
Thank you , it was a long way to travel but worth the effort

What kind of diesel shunter is that at 13:38 shunting the tanker wagons?
It's an ex West Australian J class
@@johnphillips592 What do these tanker wagons carry?
@@Little-Oshawott-2010 They carry cement
What is the strange noise the locomotive makes at 4:22?
By the sound of it the front brake blokes were just rubbing on the wheels as he had the engine brakes lightly applied

The G&W Logo reminds me of another railroad in america… hmmm…
True.
Wait on the first unit I see the same livery on American trains
They were once owned by Genesee and Wyoming , now owned by Aurizon

Single line and too diesel in a developed nation. Can anybody explain
Cost, return on investment.

I thought the same but when I checked at Alice Springs the car was empty and returning to Adelaide for repairs .
