Only just discovered this video.I was a Pinjarra based volunteer with HVTR from 1981 to 1995,great times with great people.945 looks a bit scruffy,don t the crews clean locos any more?.Great to see 1401 smoking out the bush,I was one of several HVTR members who put the money together to purchase this loco from Westrail so I still have a financial interest in this machine.
I don’t think one of those diesels was putting out much or any power considering how much work the w class steamer was doing and the overall speed of the train.considering how much smoke was coming from the xa class I think it was doing very little and all the work being done by the w and the f class banker
Fantastic video, well done. I can’t wait to film Hotham Valley in the near future.
