0:34 This is the first time I actually see the diesel tilt train move (realatively) fast. No matter where you look you never get to see some footage of it moving AT SPEED. 😂
@@jacobstrains Yes, occasionally. Not always though There is plenty of footage showing them going slower EVEN THERE!! I honestly wonder why they don't invest in the removal of level crossings as well as (minor) track realignment. With an investment of 250-300 million (sounds much but it really isn't) you could let this train run at 160-180 km/h on more than 50 % of its entire route.
The electric versions run between Brisbane and Rockhampton, which is the northernmost point of the electrified coastal network at a distance of 639 kilometers. The diesel versions run from Brisbane via Rockhampton to Cairns, which is the last major city on the coastal line. The total distance of this service is 1681 kilometers.
