Vlog 1789 Chatswood Trains & Sydney Metro #railway #railroad #trains Explore Australia’s History & Abandonments with me: @AbandonedOZ Filmed on: 30/12/2020
The changeover metro/suburban cannot be any easier in Chatswood, and the North shore line now has much more frequent services. Cannot wait though for the metro to continue beyond Chatswood in few years' time.
I’ve seen lots of hate comments about the metro on previous videos, I completely disagree with these comments, I think that the metro will be amazing once it’s finished, what’s not to love about 4 minute frequencies in peak?
@Nathan Dunn that is a very good point, although the frequency is great, and trains going new places is good, if there was a driver and guard on the train, they would be 100 times better
@Nathan Dunn The NSW Government wants to build 21st Century railway and make transport much better and they thought driverless trains would do the job. But I agree you have a good point but driverless trains aren’t too bad. But like I said, your point shouldn’t be ignored.
@Nathan Dunn Here in the UK,we have the DLR,which is a automatic system around the docklands in London,they put Guards on the trains for safety,ticket checking,to drive the train if failure and in these COVID times,there being driven manually
Nice video Phil! Pity the metro trains look so old already. The corrugated iron roofs and doors that aren’t flush against the sides of the train make them look cheap. The waratahs on the other hand are aging pretty well.
Wellington RU-vidr from NZ. I'd love to go to Sydney at the end of this year and do a couple of train/tram/driverless train videos. Last time I went to Sydney was Dec 2016 early Jan 2017 for a week. Hopefully COVID situation will have settled. In NZ, it's pretty much back to normal, though Auckland requires face masks on public transport. NZ Govt still recommends logging our activity using QR codes but the Bluetooth update makes scanning QR codes unnecessary.
Hey Phil! Amazing vid as always. I just wanted to say that it’s so coincidental you film metro as I just went on the metro today. Awesome trains they are.
I like how the Sydney metro is in the middle and Sydney trains are on the sides Chatswood is a perfect interchange for Sydney trains Sydney metro and buses
If i was on a t1 the train arrives on to platform 4 then there’s a Sydney metro train on platform 3 you run for the Sydney metro and get on that’s what i will call a fast change
