Those lazy afternoons traveling at sunset going home on a red rattler looking out the windows at the twinkle of house lights as the sound of the clunk a clunk coming from those metal wheels along with that unforgettable squealing brake noise they use to make. It was so long ago at a time so different .
So basically the Sydney network trains are designed a little something like this: D sets are based off the B sets which are based off of the A sets which are based off of the H sets which are based off of the T sets which are based off of the V sets which are based off of the S sets which are based off of the K sets which are based off of the C sets which are based off of the U sets which are based off of the F sets.
Actually, the D, B, A, H & J Sets were based off M Sets, M Sets were (probably) based off of T Sets and the Tangara was a COMPLETELY NEW design, C Sets were based off K Sets, being fitted with selected modifications, K Sets were based off of S Sets and The Mk 1 Comeng cars were loosely based off of the V Sets
3:06- Is that one of nadnerbster r's timelapse videos? The music I heard sounds familiar and that section, too. How did Channel 7 get that part of the video on news?
and the smell.....red rattlers stank like.....the city circle....asbestos brakes burning oil and zinc....mmmmm memories.....ker-clack ka-clack.....ker-clack ka-clack...lol....those wide open doors we all stood at... the "woooosh!" around wynyard was worth it.
Even with the old red rattlers, with open doors, never heard of graffiti on them, or anyone falling out, and I stood many a time right at the open door as they flew along. No problems, safer than today, because it's not the trains that get you hurt today, it's the odd idiot that rides them.
i loved the red rattlers, they had a smell and character like no other suburban train
not keen on the idea of driverless trains
+tobagotb10 They also had really noisy cooling fans; or am I confusing them with something else?
+leokimvideo my dad rode on the rr when he was little and in his 20s!
leokimvideo I think the same
Same here, driverless trains are more dangerous like not stopping if there's something on the line.
leokimvideo I see you share my concerns when it comes to Sydney Metro.
I love the 3801 steam locomotives. I think most other rail fans would like them too.
So there still is one
WAT NOOOO

From Sydney CBD to Greater Paramatta all through a steam train, impressive.
We definitely will need a flashback when the Zig-Zag railway comes back....hopefully by years end or mid-next year
I love the tangara trains!
Yeah, can’t wait to go on it while COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown finishes!
U could open the windows and even the ones at the doors and in the summer days they used get steamy hot
Its a pity the 3801 now gets its parts from Germany
They tried to get parts from germany
Didnt work out well
This news report is totally scattered and disjointed... but some good bits in here like the videos of old steam trains and red rattlers.
Oh how I miss the red rattlers best days of my life
1926-1993
There is one more set is F1

You missed the Usets.
