Travel with the train driver as we journey from Clunes to Ballarat in the west of the state of Victoria, Australia in this Vlocity railcar. May 2024 #train #driverseyeview #driversview #traindriversview #vline
@neilforbes416 By the time i was born John Curtin was dead by twenty-two years. The best prime ministers *EVER* to serve Australia would have to *Bob Hawke* and *Gough Whitlam.* RIP to *both of them.*
@@Mediawatcher2023 Not bloody likely! Gough Whitlam *DESTROYED* our consumer electronics industry in 1975, just as companies were gearing up to produce a second generation of colour TV set models, and Bob Hawke's *TOTAL BRAIN FART* of regional TV market aggregation *RUINED* regional TV in NSW, Queensland, Victoria and South Australia. *GOOD RIDDANCE TO BOTH HAWKE AND WHITLAM!*
@ 24:39. Is there any specific reason you stopped so far back from the stop signal - aka then other side of the freeway? You didn’t want the train sitting under the freeway for a reason?
Your joke reminded me of something funny from The Goodies. It was a brand of high quality, undetectable hairpiece called WOT-WIG. The tag line was "Go up to anyone in the street and ask them where they got their wig. Chances are, they'll say WOT-WIG." (what wig?) I always loved that gag. 😁
Yes they were joining two different 3 car services together to form one complete 6 car set to head to Melbourne. Not sure if the other set started in Ballarat or came in from Ararat.
19:33 Sulky - always grizzling! LOL😄

Welcome to Clunes where people eat alot of prunes lol

13:06 Creswick - birthplace of Australia's *Greatest and Best Prime Minister - John Curtin!* Yes, @Driver667, I can be serious at times!
PM Curtin spent a bit of time at nearby Charlton during his childhood ... great railway town with a great bakery!
Well there you go. I've learnt something about our ex prime ministers, and bakeries. 🤣👍😄
@@andrewpal4874 They must be lazy there, just "loafing around"! LOL But I suppose that was a "crumb-y" joke! Half-baked, even! LOL

They replaced them with boom gates. The old interlocked swinging gates are gone. 🤔👍
