I'm from the US and I can tell Australian railways right away. The equipment is a combination of British and North American railways. Much of the equipment came from Britain, but the railways came into existence after many North American innovations like automatic couplers came into existence. Australia has distances to population/commercial ratio base closer to those of North America than the UK. So the civil engineering infrastructure is somewhat poorer than that of the UK and the rolling stock has to be adjusted to take that into account. The locomotive headlights follow North American formatting, but much of of the other parts of the locomotives follow UK formatting. It is somewhat fun to look at the equipment and figure out what was adopted from where, how that decision was arrived at and maybe what may be a new creation of the Australians.

It runs between Goolwa and Victor Harbour in South Australia.
God i love our little heritage railways here. Im assuming this video might have been taken down south?
It was taken down South
@@fhp40 I knew it!
Laser flicker makes it look like you're trying to shoot the loco 😳
pls film rx191 to spread awareness of it's condition

@@ETALAL close, it's Irish broad gauge (5'3", 1600mm).
