- Another steam operated tourist season is due to start up, in May 2024.
But, subject to Bush Fire Hazard Conditions.
With a long, hot, dry Sumner season. And with little rain falling, the start-up date could be delayed a few weeks or so?
Meanwhile, sit back and enjoy this short clip of W945 and F40, working in tandem. As they haul the 5 coach train, on a return trip back to Dwellingup from Isandra.
Videoed a few years ago.
That was cool, look forward to more videos of this! (Dave).
Thanks for watching this one, Dave. Yes, over the coming winter season. I'll try to get more videos, for you.
My pop Brian is driving it he has the brown hat and blue kit on
You must be proud of him, volunteering for HVR. Thanks for sharing that with us. Hope you get a chance to ride in the cab, one day.
Yes I am proud of him I have been in the cab last year FUN FACT: I every now and then work in the steam ranger inside the carriages he took me for a tour of the x class its fresh painted inside the engine room!
Maybe they should re-launch the diesel rangers seeing they might have to delay steam?
Yes, that'll be a good idea. Seeing how popular, HVR tourist trains are.
We should all write to Minister Saffioti, request she cancel ARC's contract and maybe we'll see these beasties - along with the ARHS S - out and about again at some stage?
Haha, I like your thinking. Yes, ARC Infrasructure is a rebadged name from Babcock and Brown, I think it was. They were awarded the track maintenance contract from previous State Government. And thus closed down tier 3 lines.
Yes. Steam hauled specials, like they are allowed to run, in the eastern states mainlines
I couldn’t imagine that loco on the mainline leaking steam and clanking like that, even if they could afford the access fees, I doubt they would have the man power to operate it on a larger scale like they used to.
@@number2664 True. It sounds asthmatic. Clearly both ends of the deal would have to do some work.
