Used to call those locomotives Mustard Pots, partly because of the colour scheme but mainly for the design of the exhaust on the roof of the locomotive. 😊 Very cool video thank you for the different views of the line.
When they transferred twenty or so 830 class Goodwin Alco's to Tasmania they had to cut the exhaust stacks off to get through the North East and South tunnel. They were always dirty covered in black greasy soot.
@@daviobryker No worries you have done a great job on this video. I remember back in the 80's when the state government still owned the line, we would catch a Bluebird service from Mount Lofty railway station to Goolwa. We met some cool people down there that owned a house at Middleton, right next to the railway line. Every so often I would see a freight train going to Victor Harbor, and most of the time it would be these locomotives pulling the train.
Hope everyone likes this video if you don't move on helps me know who truly likes my videos. These were done all safe and no rules broken that I can find you think I am welcome to send me a link as I've looked thanks

@Ghastly10 thanks mate I do my best and even was aiming for more different shots which when the southern encounters come back will be handy
