This week Schony747 features the 1000 Meter SSR Broad Gauge Infrastructure Train. The train was sent to Seymour from Melbourne to help bed down some new cement railway sleepers. The train did multiple trips over a number of days between Seymour and Managalore which is located north of Melbourne. Once again, SSR rolled out the vintage locomotive consist lead by the ever popular B Class Streamliners. The consist was in push pull mode with 48 wagons in between.

Burning the proverbial midnight oil Brenden. Thanks for the video. Your dedication in bringing these to us is very much appreciated.
Thanks alot 😃😃
What a monster. Love those blown 567s working hard!
Yep it was awesome as it went past
Thankyou for bringing us another ripper Brendan. I think a lot of GV residents who use the train to Melbourne will be thankful for these upgrades. A bit of a pity the ‘N sets’ are gone now, but I guess that’s progress.
Many don't like the Vlo mate. Better infrastructure will also lead to more frequent services as well
Fantastic video mate, i was at Broady for the return during the arvo. Sounded excellent as always
Saw your video mate!
Awesome content thanks very much 👍
Thankyou mate 😀😀
Well done mate great job
Thankyou mate
Good find thats huge👍
Thanks alot 😀😀
@@Schony747 no problem
Loved this video, great work for staying overnight to capture it! What load does the infrastructure train carry?
Normally it's carrying spoil such dirt and ballast from reconstruction
At 8.33 the SG line seems to have subsided quite a bit
There's a couple of mud holes there
cool
Thanks mate 😀😀
Great video. Do these streamlines still lead trains or are they all now retired? If not yet how much longer will they be in service?
They still lead train but more often than not are trailing units. They will be around for as long as SSR here in Victoria see them as a viable option for running trains.
The closest in length to that here in the UK are High Output Ballast Cleaning trains
I've seen them in action! They are pretty cool
Where all 6 locos controlled from the front or was there a driver in the push 3
There was someone visible in the rear in a couple of shots.
Both trains had drivers. I'm not sure who and what was controlling what. I assume the front would control the whole lot.
I've seen in America when they use 6 loco's, as well as other configurations, , they sometimes have have two in the middle.
QLD coal trains used to do a similar thing didn’t they? With a radio transmitter car in the middle as well?
The use of mid locos is not overly common here. You'll find a few on coal trains in such places as the Hunter Valley and ore trains in Western Australia but it's not Common on mainline freights
@@Schony747 there’s a bit in the classic documentary by Patsy Adam Smith that shows a qld coal train with logos in the middle (it would be decades ago now though!)
What was the actual purpose for the train running to Seymour and back? Did they deliver ballast in those containers? Or rail? Seemed like a lot of empty wagons in both directions.
It was to bed down the new concrete sleepers with the existing rail
Where would they stable a train that length?
Tottenham
At Seymour they could probably stable the train between Seymour and Mangalore as it was a total occupation. The other option would be Seymour loop just south of Seymour
What date was this?
9th to 12th of April, it says in the video
April 9th and 12th
And a lot of GM Thrash!
Yes lots!!!!
Metre, not meter.
Both serve a purpose. Meter is US
If only you could write correct in english
He indeed could have used more punctuation, nevertheless everything was coherent and made perfect sense.
On the other hand, "If only you could write corect in english" should probably be something like "If only you could write English correctly."
If only you could write corect in english
Or at least check the spelling before posting the comment. Auto correct can be a pain at times
@@Schony747 , youve just intentionally used that old trick used by butchers and fruiterers to get potential customers to point out the spelling mistake which tends to make them buy the product. good thinking!
@@Schony747did it auto correct metre to meter?
