    you covered that well. my favourite part was the crowd at 3:22. ive seen a video made a few decades ago from that spot that showed the absolute chaos as everyone attempted to leave, at the same time, for the next viewing spot.

    Correction - R761 hauls 6 MTH (Harris) Carriages. And what a sight to see :) Thank you for sharing.

      Cheers for the correction and enjoying the video, however it's technically not wrong initially. Also, should say that they aren't MTH carriages. These are just regular BTH-BIH-BCH carriages. The MTH carriages haven't been in operation with V/Line for years now.

      @@Comeng998 - Oh? Sorry, I've been outta touch with reality with all these damned lockdowns. So who's operating the MTH cars now and would you know what their future uses will be considering they're over 60 years old.

      V/Line stopped using the MTH carriages shortly after they weren't needed for the Stony Point line anymore. Not really sure what's happened to the carriages, most likely just stored somewhere and handed back over to VicTrack, however MTH102 is still in service, now known as IEV102, operating as Metro's overhead inspection carriage.
