Nice one and I like your video became glad to see latest video
Thank you. Very happy you enjoyed the video. 👍😀
Nice seeing this express run from Melton to Sunshine
@@mattk183 a little express running is nice. 👍😀
Great vids, ever done an over the shoulder view, I think the punters would love to see that, so they can see how you operate the PBC, on second thoughts maybe not 🤫
Also wondering if you’ve done any with a narrower field of view, it’ll look slower but may help get the detail in the distance that’s very hard to see with a wide angle
@@mexicanbatman666 I haven't shown operating the controls due to security concerns although I agree, it would be interesting to a lot of people. Also, I use a gopro which doesn't have a zoom lens so haven't done any with a narrower field of view. Glad you are enjoying the videos. 👍😀
That's interesting, I think this is the first time I've seen a train in the siding at Melton at 8:12. I presume it's a peak hour arrangement.
@@Aviumkeeper yes, a daily occurrence on a week day during peak hour. 👍😀
Sweet trip thanks mate😊 always looks good coming into the city from the boonles😅
@@mrrol5212 thanks. Glad you enjoyed the ride into town. 👍😀
Beautiful sunset
@@ConnorSmith-sx1zn 👍😀
Before anyone asks about that short section of 130kph running through Rockbank - it's because the up track through there used to be a crossing loop before the line was duplicated and they haven't gotten around to upgrading it yet. The section from Caroline Springs to Sunshine is because they didn't bother upgrading the up track during RFR, instead opting for bi-directional signalling on both tracks which was abolished in that section when the RRL was built.
@@lachlanbaker2031 good job 👍😀
I hadn’t seen any dual gauge track on this channel for a while, so welcome back, old friend 😅
@@josephkarl2061 😂 Glad to bring you some dual gauge track. 👍😀
16.52 Bendigo express please @@driver667
That would be nice. I'll see what I can do one day. 👍😀
Also I saw the freight train on the left side of the track at 29:38
Good job 👍😀
Interesting but why was the train on the right side of the track
@@OfficalMelbourneGreenQuad parwan is a crossing loop. Trains normally stay on the straight track unless they are passing another train. Glad you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀

To Bacchus Marsh we rode a train,
Now back-us we shall ride again.😆
Must be the weather -- I posted my comment without seeing your post. Guess we must be on the same 'track' 😉🙂
@@PaxAlotin-j6r Comment posts don't always come up straight away. I had to re-load to get your reply to appear. 😊
@@martythemartian99 UA-cam is doing strange things lately
@@Mediawatcher2023 Lately ? hahaha - it seems like forever.
Now all you need is to record in 10bit HDR.
The 4K looks good even on a 1440p screen with youtube.
@@acesretroonline 🤔 4K is where I'm staying. 😂 Glad you like them in 4K. It is a long way from when I first started. 👍😀
@@driver667 Yeah I have a PC monitor that does 10bit but is only 1440p, for gaming, etc. Not that I really notice much difference.
@@acesretroonline 👍😀
hey, i was wondering if you'd ever do the challenge of an xpt melb to sydney video if thats even possible?
@@flynnbop I'm not sure if it's possible. I'd have to talk to Sydney trains for that one. One day. 😀👍
@@driver667 given that Sydney Trains Cab Videos (or cuboz1) had to take down all of his lovely videos recently, I assume that'd be a no-go. A shame, I grew up watching those videos!
@briannem.6787 Wait what? I don't know that person but did they have a full xpt journey video?
@@flynnbop No, they only had Sydney Trains videos (plus some videos on intercity trains that I think were filmed by somebody else), I think they had one video on the hunter line but other than that it was all electric services
@briannem.6787 Ohhhh okay, dang are sydney trains strict with their filming policies?
Q - Why are Train drivers clever ?
A - They're known for their _'engineuity'_
@@PaxAlotin-j6r oh my 🙄👍😂
@@driver667 Dad Jokes --- never get old.
@@PaxAlotin-j6r no, they don't. 😂😂👍
I saw N class train at Tottenham yard
Hotspurs -- ⚽
@@ConnorSmith-sx1zn they are at Tottenham every so often. 👍😀
@@PaxAlotin-j6r hmmmm.... ⚽️ ⚽️👍
@@driver667 😂
Is it afternoon peak
@@ConnorSmith-sx1zn toward the end of afternoon peak. 👍😀
