- Vintage Australian Locomotive C501 hauls SRHC's Lunch Train from Yarrawonga to Benalla over a section of old and bump tracks.
Over the 14th-16th of June, SRHC's Spirit of Yarrawonga became the first Victorian passenger train on standard gauge to venture out to the Oaklands line.

Used to take VLines to rural Victoria. Loved the trips. Miss them very much nowadays.
spew up ya lunch - great video mate
remember having a cab ride in 501
The track condition of that line to Yarrawonga is a fucking disgrace
I remember spending a whole week up in Yarrawonga preparing for this tour

@Comeng_ the spot I found there was a BIG w. On the first day I was there I used it to film the oaklands grain train.
@@TTA_761 cool
its a shame that the state of the track is so poor should be a lot better but an amazing video none the less
Hi Mate, What was the N for ? George could pull three times that load.
@@trevorscott5625 The C wasnt allowed to long end lead as far as I know.
C classes are not allowed to run long end ,only certain places it has an exemption like between southern cross and sth dynon loco for example
Couldn’t expect the track to be in any better condition in this State. If the CMFEU have a say it will be all new track. $$$
what would the CFMEU know about building a rail line and it take even longer as them weeklings hate working in the wet and the heat
What’s a joke that track is. To think it was 70kmh in the broad gauge days
no it wasnt james
Suggest you look at the old posted line speed for the line operation data. It was 70
C501, is not 'nicknamed' anything. It's NAME is George Brown.
For the sake of it, wouldn't you think there would be a preservation society to maintain and repair the tracks along with some state government funding. LOL, LOL. To let these old lines dissappear is a crying shame. With the interest in railways the way it is now surely there's something that could be done.
I agree mate. That's the same reason we only get to see preservation group trains venture the line.
