As you can probably tell I love Trains, and on my channel you will see all of the videos of Trains that I record on my travels.
I live in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia and my videos will often include the V/Line trains on the Bairnsdale line. I also travel down every few weeks to Morwell where I am able to record the Qube Maryvale Paper Mill Train.
I also record heritage specials that travel on the Bairnsdale line, including the annual Steamrail Snow Train specials.
You will also see that I include videos from Melbourne and interstate Australia as I travel around. Some of the trips I have been on this year are the Overland to Adelaide, South Australia, and a trip to Townsville, Queensland. I also travel to the Illawarra and South Coast of NSW every year so expect some videos from these locations as well!
Please subscribe to my channel to see all of my videos! And thanks for checking out my channel :)
It's interesting having been to the national rail museum in adelaide, rail workshops museum in ipswich and now thirlmere again. They all have some similarities and differences. Thirlmere is mostly a look around at static exhibitis, with a little bit of an explainer on the rail history of the state. And although I didn't film it in the video, you can go up to the roundhouse at the back and see maintenance/restoration underway, which is usually carried out away from the public eye in other museums. It also has train rides up to buxton and back. Unfortunately they weren't running on the day I went but Thirlmere is definitely the only 'big' train museum in the country that offers that experience.
i actually volunteer my weekend at the railway so i can say this, thank you for visiting our railway! i appreciate the time and the excellent video you have made thank you for supporting the local business and i hope you would like to come again!
No problem at all Leo! We have been very excited to see some of the developments that have been taking place over the last few years thanks to the efforts of volunteers like yourself!
No, there are heaps of T classes still around. Some still in use on freight! And yes, you are correct, some of them are different designs. There are at least three T class design variations. There are the series one 'flat top', the series 2 which has a very slight hood above the drivers cab, and the series 3 onwards which has a high hood and full windshield.
@@AlexsTrainChannel - Yeah I mean one could be a one-off to commemorate some single event in railway history or a sponsorship or a sister city arrangement or something, but two is a lot more than a coincidence 😲
This museum is in dire need of a facelift. The artifacts are stale and there's little to zero variety. If you went once a year every year, nothing would change.
Yeah, Warrnambool and Geelong would be the only two places. Does stony point count as the vline network? You can see the ocean at the end of the line there as well.
There certainly are. One of Aurizon key plans for the future of their business is to take on more bulk freight, like grain, as they will move away from coal. They run in the hunter valley, and late in 2022 they started operating in southern nsw, around cootmaundra/junee.
I watch all your uploads - but the NZ ones are the most special of all. Well done. Keep Up The Good Work. Best Wishes from Uk and here is my engagement gift to the RU-vid algo God. You deserve it.
RU-vid never ceases to amaze me. Here I am, an Australian, making a video on New Zealand trains, replying to a comment from someone in the UK. My humble thanks for your support and comment! I hope to visit the UK again someday soon. Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year for 2024.
They are getting closer every day to returning trains to the tracks! I look forward to that day as it is a beautiful part of the country and would make a very scenic ride.
