Glad you enjoyed it! I knew these trains were spaced out on the day so gave me a great opportunity to move around and get some different shots. Matt - M&S Trains
G'day Matt, Quality video love the commentary you know what is going on. Video crisp & clear. Good to see Big George on the rail & X31 too. Cheers Louis Kats 👍
Off this topic but related. It looks like 200 Million is going to be spent on the East West line by the Aust Govt. The first steps are on the Nullarbor section. Heaps more culverts planned in the flooding prone areas. Also heavier gauge rail is to be put down in stages to cater for heavier train loads in the future. The line itself is tipped to grow traffic considerably. The recent flooding in WA/NSW caused a national conference BY ALL PARTIES involved however the commitment to the Section above was the money stated above in the Federal Budget. The major food retailers in Perth had low or nil stocks for 4 weeks recently. Road transport was also discussed because the Eyre Highway was closed but again no solutions were offered at the same conference.
Thanks! First time I'd seen Lindsay on Qube. Good for them if they've got a new contract but might be a one off? Will have to ask around and see. Thanks for watching. Matt - M&S Trains
what's going on with the cf at 1:54? aurizon paint job, railfirst loco number and badge. did aurizon sell it? and why would it sell a newer model of loco if it needs to revitalise old retired wagr l's?
Awesome video. Great footage with lots of information. Thank you👍
Thanks, mate! Have a good rest of your week.

Great video M&S. Loved the different angles of trains over that trestle bridge. Really cool.

Awesome again . . .
nice
Good work. It’s a pity SCT are done with the vintage stuff, but at least we both managed to see them on the Dooen runs.
Thanks, Rhys. Apparently, C501 is going back? I guess you have to wait and see.

@@MS_Trains Interesting, hopefully we may see it (perhaps lead) on 6KA9 if they run that

Aurizon purchased it from RF.
@@bigman4225 ,so did it have the aurizon paint job when rf owned it?
@@vsvnrg3263 No. Aurizon Purchased it off of RF Before it was built.
@@bigman4225 , intriguing answer. the rf stickers are on top of the aurizon paint job. i'll see what wikipedia says about it.
Long term lease. It’s like the same thing with the LDP class. QRN leased them and when they did, some of them were painted QRN eagle.
10:06 its minto not minton
You’re right my mistake. Can’t get everything right.
