Thx for showing Australia’s & especially South Australian train heritage. Me & my 2 eldest adult children took my youngest son (their little brother) for a late 12th birthday present in late April this year 2024, Domenic loved it! Now he wants to see the aviation museum, so does my eldest son.
I visited the Museum many time while I was in the Defence force was a great day out. Hopefully will visit the Museum again yet again great info and video again will
Always a good wander around. A great spot to explore in Port Adelaide, with the Maritime Museum and Aviation Museum all in very close proximity, it can make a beaut day of strolling around some well preserved history all round. Plenty of beautiful old architecture around the streets of Port Adelaide as well.
G'day Will, never new it was there in Adelaide, next trip too SA it's a must as l am a railway nut, SA has some wonderful different trains not found anywhere else in Australia, thanks for the Video, cheers mate, Neil 🤠.
Thanks for a fantastic video showing one of the great railway spots in SA. If you get time maybe visit Old Tailem Town, the Milang Railway Museum & the Pichi Richi Railway. Also visit our 3 remaining model railway stores - Ozrail, Junction Models & Orient Express as well as our newest manufacturer Kandu Workshop!
as a south australian i have bean her so many times i have lost count id definetly recomend it for any one that has not bean ther yeat and if you ar looking at going any point soon they ar biulding an new railway station at the museum weher train on the port addelaide line will terminate at some times
Will, a great museum report. Looks like a very intersting location to visit. I will have to try and plan a trip. Thank you for sharing. Cheers, and keep safe, Michael
gday will, heard from steam ranger that we might be restoring a 900 class so you might see one running and operational soon down in goolwa etc! cant wait.
Kind of, there’s two out at Tailem Bend, which I got to go have a look at, they where the former ones from steamranger, but they where too heavy for the track. One is now being converted to standard gauge and will hopefully be restored soon and running on the mainline
Nice video Will. I went many years ago and it was a fantastic day out. I would love to go back again and see if anything has changed since I was last there. This video brought back memories for me. Cheers. - Nicholas.
i went on the red hoon on the loop line they had, i think it stopped this year because of the port dock train upgrade is going to use that platform. sad we wont be able to get red hens there anymore
Ever come back should visit Semaphore railway museum runs but owned by the local council. Also ever in town will meet ya love your videos mate and you might see me at the museum too one of the volunteers there as well as Pichi Richi
@WillJamesRailways sweet should visit the miniature trains around as well like SASMEE Park, Morphett Vale and railway park (prospect). If your here warmer months semaphore is running at the beach worth a ride
I’m just here waiting for the comments from those who’ll write “tHeY sHoUldn’T bE NATIONAL!!!1111” 🍿 Great video! Here’s hoping NRM promote it when you eventually release it.
Interesting pronunciation - "locomotiev." Never heard that before. Nice to know about this museum. It certainly needs work, but it's quite spectacular. I wish I was young enough to go and see it.
I’m not sure where I’ve made this mistake. But I offer nothing but apologies for this. I’ll try harder in the future, and going forward to make sure my pronunciation is better. I am once again sorry
you should go back there on the 24th of august 2024 or the 25th because the new portdock railway station opened and they are going to have a big ceremony
Hey will love the video. I went here a couple weeks ago, they had all the locomotives you could see, and btw what was your favourite locomotive you saw while you were there😊
