My last S set ride (on the Olympic Park Line) was on one of the cars that got preserved, T4003. That car is on the third heritage set, now known as S1.
Mine was S61, car C3930 on the T3. one of my favorite cars didn't get preserved, but i think one car of my second (now favorite set) favorite set S2 was preserved
I just made a lego s-set power car. It will NEVER be decommissioned from my collection of lego train MOCS. I never saw one in real life. R.I.P S-sets 😭🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃
You forgot about Tulloch built S1-9 made in the 50's (if i remember correctly?) that were single deck but other than that this was the best history video so far!
The greatest set to run on the rails, the little brother to the v sets. The windcheater 9n the driving cars and budd fluting stainless steel reminded me iconically not literally of the daleks from doctor who for some reason! Best with orignal windows, were nice and cool with them back then. Had chance to ride in driving trailer 2nd series with guard doors as lead on old carlingford line and at speed fron kiama to wollongong, very stable at high speed! Used to sit in the 1st series driving trailer driving end right hand seat with driving cabin locked off, pretending as a school kid to be driving the train! If i had the ability to souvenir items from the scrapping, would be a red white light cluster, a vent fan for the lower deck and one of the rotating bench chairs. Gona get two driving trailers and pull with my 48 class loco for my ho trainset and do the woolongong setup. Jm
in the early 80s, in the weekends most trains were running 4 cars set whereas during weekday 8 cars. Do they get broken up into 2x4 cars for the weekends as a routine?
I hated the new windows. You didn't get as much air in, and thus it felt hotter. Though it wasn't unusual to have someone holding the intercarriage door open to allow some form of air flow. Even I did it at times, just sitting with my foot against the open door, being tall has advantages haha.
I'll always remember waiting at central station and seeing these trains stop in and preying it wasn't our trains because these things smelt so strongly of wet dog mixed with Crossfit gym.
Wondered why there were extra letter prefix designations (ie, L, R, T etc). Berg's Hobbies also released a HO scale model of the S Sets, which are still available for sale.
question is it merc 0305 PMC or Merc 0305 ansair just trams in melb dvd showed the curved 0305 said mercedes 0305 doen from sydney after being refeurbished by ansair tullamarine
The picture for the final comeng series one power car is not actually a series one, It’s easy to tell whether the power car is a series one or not, For example in the disbanded R set pic, the cars displayed there are series 1 because of no fluting on the lower half
I was there when they opened up the line to Richmond from rail motor To electric cars. Shame they never had a double line From Richmond to blacktown. They do in parts blacktown to Schofield.
Great vid! After living in Sydney for 12 years I've still never rode one, and now they're basically gone? Oh well. Also Horsnby (not Hornsby lol) th-cam.com/video/mzZEaJ1Lwgo/w-d-xo.html
griffin rails is right and anyway I did not rode on the s set farewell tour because of covid 19 and no crossing the border between VIC and NSW and will the s set farewell tour stay till next year???
We miss you S sets
They can be withdrawn. They can be scrapped. They can be hated but doesn't mean they'll be forgotten, especially by us S Set enthusiasts.
@GamingJamesGames well said
The A sets could have replaced all of the s sets, because there were more cars overall, 498 s sets cars to 624 A set cars
Doesn’t it feel great when your fav channel uploads a vid on your fav train?
haha, thanks!
Yes it feels good
I was wondering when this was finally going to be done!
yeah same
It feels weird living without the S sets. They are like the icon of Sydney trains. It would be worst living without the silver sets.
I DO NOT LIKE S SETS.
@The Pacific Coast Railfanner my channel is growing so fast?
@@thesydneytrainfan4478 who asked you bro💀
I was on one the other day at central. So amazing and such a valuable piece in our train history.
They got withdrawn in 2019 so were you on a K Set?
Must of been a K set then@@TrainsForNSWVlogs
Goninian Built S set Looks like K sets
i've been on the S set multiple times but haven't been on one in the last 5 years of service
Great history video of putting this together I enjoyed this video thanks mate
No worries! Thanks for the comment

Well done! Your best video yet!
Thanks!
As a guard they were good to work, simple to fault find and reasonably comfortable.
Great video and history. Enjoyed the soundtrack as well 👍
Cheers! Glad you did.
Great video. 👏👏👍
Thanks!
I was privileged to be a guard on the S sets in their final year… then I resigned lol
The Iconic S Set!!
Quite!
Now we have too soon say goodbye to the mighty V sets.
Even K and C sets
@@WecardoTransportFilms noooo, not the C sets!
@@thatonec_set3730 C Sets are gone now!
4 and 6 cars sets were common in early 80s. You got to work it out before train arrive otherwise you could be 4 carriages away if it stops short.
You forgot about Tulloch built S1-9 made in the 50's (if i remember correctly?) that were single deck but other than that this was the best history video so far!
thanks!
and you are right griffin rails
griffin rails griffin fails
you made that
do you have a video on the u sets?

At 1:10 the picture in the right with the tulloch double decker power car, I saw that! Did you take that picture at thirlmere?
in the early 80s, in the weekends most trains were running 4 cars set whereas during weekday 8 cars. Do they get broken up into 2x4 cars for the weekends as a routine?
What are the songs used in the video (the first one)
You aren't a railfan until you've ridden on a sweat set
At least Im going on the S Set at the Expo.

I Love S Sets! S Sets Are My Favorite Train!
We all miss you S sets

Like the music whats it's called because it's super good the frist one?

Did They Do The Same Thing as The Tangara-G Sets And The K Sets.
These trains and the comments here remind of the old A Stock on the London Met Line.

I will miss you S Sets
What’s the name of the song?
Wasn’t there a fully double deck EMU set in Britain around 1900?
We still remember you c set and s set your cousins k set and v set are still alive and well
Well, the class of era of the S Sets, R Sets, F Sets and W Sets is now over, next will be the V Sets
Screechlo At least C and K Sets will stick around for a while longer...
@@nicholetheotter1957 I didn't say them...
Screechlo At least we’ll still have some trace of silver sets.
@@nicholetheotter1957 true
Actually the c sets are next then V sey
The s set 1980 to 2019 and 2022 ( last special event in Strathfield) S28

What is the first music in this video
A Bouquet of Roses by DJ Quads
@@sydneyrailbuff thank you so much. I have been wondering what that music was since you have uploaded that and R.I.P S sets
they should make a series 2 with air con
All A&B Sets have enetered service ap they would replace nothing. Also the K Sets does that job.
I love them
How come the S-Sets were never fitted with headlights and just used marker lights?
@Lucas Lau You're kidding!?
Can I please use some of your footage for my TikTok video? I want to make a memorial of them in social media.
Sure just let me know when it's uploaded and where I can find it
It's uploaded and on TIKTOK
Rest In Peace sweat sets
I was there when they opened up the line to Richmond from rail motor
To electric cars.
Shame they never had a double line
From Richmond to blacktown.
They do in parts blacktown to Schofield.
Less D sets and more S and V sets NOW!

Denis 2 It’s always nice to refresh on later events, right?
@@nicholetheotter1957 yeah
The S Sets Are Unairconditoned they were replaced with the Warath Series 2
