R761 is back. The third surprise for the open days 2024 is R761. It now looks good wearing it's original 1985 restored paint scheme. Steamrail did a good job with R761. Wowza.
No it’s just had a major repaint and the volunteers have made it look like it did back in March 1985 after it got repainted in the workshops at Bendigo after it’s 1980-1984 restoration
So much respect for R761 when visiting S.A in 87 & 94...looking fantastic now. I can't travel due to illness - have a great weekend everyone!
It's gonna be a steaming hot three day event, literally.
Lmao
do the workshops have aircon?
Great video, great paint work, great locomotive, very well done.
I remember seeing the videos of her racing the Flying Scotsman, when 4472 visited for AUSTEAM '88.
Looks great!
Beautiful!!

Idk what it is, but there's just something I love about the Australian Pacific's.
Dude Victorian Railways R class is Hudson not Pacific. The S class got all scrapped long ago.
Nice video.
Was this meant to be a surprise? Was R761 out of service or something and I didn't know about it?

R CLASSSS!!!
Nice Korn reference
R 753?
R700
@@Jayhocksenar-x1k You're right...753 is a 707 Op R....would be more likely 700.
Bruh i thought it was gonna be r700
I'm genuinely disappointed, I expected R700, Not 2000's R761...
1980s R761 you mean
R 761? That's old hat!
