I remember the time this line was closed and was being used for storing grain wagons. You could see them from the highway. Good to see it running trains again.
seeing how the track is raised ,and the cuttings,all done without modern machinery,probably one shoveful at a time,gives me a great respect for those old timers that built the railways.
Hi there, When you zoom in on the map, can you leave it posted a bit longer so we can read it? Love your posting of old sites. I've been doing some of my own research for fun. Do you know of a site that has similar information or maps for Western Australia?
i hit the pause button. i also have downloaded that mark bau map for my own reference. there are old railway maps of wa on-line but what ive found arent very clear. the railway museum at bassendean has a couple of old official maps.
This entire section from Maryborough to Ararat, has been an absolute delight.
I'm very happy you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀

@@alanvaleandthelazyfarmer1930 I don't know of any one site for Western Australia. I have done a search unsuccessfully so far. 👍😀

Great video but cannot understand why there are no signals protecting the triangle in the direction of travel.Seems very unusual
It is unusual. No signals around this route. 👍😀
Wasn't the loco depot on the left as you enter the triangle? You can see the old formation.
This track runs through the site. It was really both sides. 👍😀
Definitely 60 class Garratt territory in the future and no schedule passenger service to delay.
🤔😀👍
A Rather soggy day today. What is the stop board for.
👍
👍😀
