Great stuff Phil! You can do anything on your channel when you set your mind to it! I cant wait to see what awesome goals you achieve in the future! For now at least, keep aiming for the stars and don’t give up! You will one day become the most popular trainspotters! Keep up the great work 👍
Hello Phil, This is a very nice video. You are at Macdonaldtown Station. Very Nice, I like your vids. I love to see Trains Galore. I saw a XPT, Good to see this video.
Hey phil! May i request beverly hills and hurstville please? My best friend lives there and Id be very happy if you would vlog at any of those locations

They need to put more Trains on the SCO as there is only a train every 33 mins at Woonona . They should also get rid of sp’s. And they should also consider connecting the SCO line with the SHL because if I would want to go on the SHL I have to drive to Campbelltown and then get the train on the SHL. They should also get PIDS at every Station. Merry Christmas Phil and everyone. Keep up the good work.
Every 20 minutes would be good. I think the SCO will get more services as the D Sets roll out. There is a line that connects the SCO and SHL but passenger trains don’t use it except XPT’s during trackwork
Very rare. Trackwork on the SHL can warrant some regional trains trains travelling via the Unanderra - Moss Vale link I don’t know how long it has been since that happened though.
Are the Oscars getting replaced with the D sets, or is it the V sets, either way, what would happen to either of them when the D sets begin to rollout?
No Leave All XPT’s In Service Don’t Replace Them with Hitachi class 800s. Leave All Intercity Train In Service and Don’t Replace with Alstom class 390s
Thanks Phil. You know it is Australia when the Boss chucks a sickie. 🙂

That “Slow Track” is called the DOWN Suburban, there is probably a speed restriction on the DOWN suburban line
Run numbers for the XPT trains mentioned in the video are NT32 (Brisbane to Central XPT) and NT33 (Central to Casino XPT)
You can still see the foundations of the old pedestrian bridge on the city side of McD staion
Thanks phil your trainspotting is very good
Thank you! :)

Merry Christmas to you too mate, thanks heaps for watching :)
Which circumstance’s would that be for trackwork because I’ve never seen any Xplorer’s or xpt’s on the SCO
Ur videos actually inspired me to create my own channel
Very rare.
Trackwork on the SHL can warrant some regional trains trains travelling via the Unanderra - Moss Vale link
I don’t know how long it has been since that happened though.
Are the Oscars getting replaced with the D sets, or is it the V sets, either way, what would happen to either of them when the D sets begin to rollout?
Love that noise "da dunk da dunk da dunk da dunk".
Same
Hey Phil, I'm loving the work you've been putting into your videos. Do you think you'd start recording in 4K? It would look very nice
Hi mate :)
Thanks so much for watching :)
I’m hoping to start 4K recording in the first quarter of the new year :)
@@sydneytrainsvlogs No problem, you helped inspire me to go out train spotting
love the none welded rail joint noise
2019 is the year when the sydney metro line of chatswood to tallawong services began to open.
Correct!
It opened while i was in New York
Nice Work Phil
Cheers mate :)
On the fourth track always goes slower and slower every day normally it go fast
There must be something up with the track like a mud hole or something.
They should fix it for track work then
Merry Christmas Phil!
Yeah 😊
Amazing video good job
Thank you :)
No problem
Will he post vlog 2022 before 2022 is over?
Hi, may I ask how crowd are Sydney trains during rush hour recently?
Hey :)
They can get quite crowded.
Standing room only.
@@sydneytrainsvlogs would you like to take video inside the train to see how crowd it is?
Nice morning peak trains Phil 👍
Very nice Phil 😁
Those XPT were great in their day but should have been replaced 30 years ago now.
Merry Christmas Phil love your vlogs
