Awesome, as always Schony! Thank you for travelling all over the country to capture this footage & then share it with us. You provide me with endless hours of enjoyment, that's for sure!
I disagree. Even in "slow" "3rd world" "doesn't know how to run a railroad" "ass-backward" America, freight trains run faster than that. Sorry, at least that's what foreigners call us, it sure does look neat though.
Thanks for translation of that comment. Movie is fine, can't see any problem. Personally, I appreciate your work and want to see more. Talking about Australia Day. In Perth we reached 42 today so there is a good chance that something could melt on our railway tracks. :)
Awesome video schony I'm going to go on a xpt train first class in 4 months and I'm kinda scared but you made me feel better thanks for the video I love it
+Schony747 Yes, it is sad. When our 4000 class trains came out you had to look hard to find vandalism on them but... I was at a station the other day and a 4000 class came by with scratched windows & a massive tag on the side.
@@Schony747 Not so. If you look closely at the second loco, the leading end cab has no windows, doors or headlights. It looks as if the builders decided to not complete one end as some sort of cost-cutting measure.
3:17 - can I say I'm a bit biased when I say I like the FIE-Class C44ACi's? Well - I do work for Fletcher International Exports, the owners of the FIE-Class locomotives!
@@Schony747 do more UK stuff these days, done the IP and the one of the Queensland units up to Cairns on my last trip down under. Looking forward to doing the last loco hauled diagrams on my next one. I have 'The Ghan', Longreach, Charlesville, Mount Is a and a few of the Victoria long distance loco hauled diagrams and 'XPT' routes from Sydney to Brisbane and 'The Overlander from Melbourne to Adelaide. Mind you most trains are going to be unit over here too. The only loco hauled services over here are going to be sleepers, with the exception of the HST's on the Midland Main Line and two or three sets on the East Coast Main Line and the ATW 67 diagrams. You might want to check out the 73's on the Fort William, Aberdeen and Inverness Sleepers. Some good ideas for a trip to the UK.

Double stacking takes place between Adelaide and Perth. Everywhere else is single stack due to infrastructure issues such as low bridges that won't allow it.

Awesome :) You get around LOL. How good was A66 departing Footscray and the C's at Broadford? Were N classes never designed for Freight? Are N classes used for passenger services in NSW?
N class is a Victorian Loco purchased by V/Line as a replacement for the aging B and S Class. It was just as economical to buy new locos than convert B class to A class. And yes I do get around!
A Schooner for Schony. Cheers.
Schanks 😀😀
Perfect video for a Sunday evening
Of course! Nothing better than a train in a Sunday. Thanks
If I didn't know any better, I'd swear that these trains were here in Canada. Great video.
Awesome, as always Schony! Thank you for travelling all over the country to capture this footage & then share it with us. You provide me with endless hours of enjoyment, that's for sure!
I actually enjoy driving. Getting the trains is a bonus!
I'm American so this is the first time I've seen some Australian trains, not bad aussies!
Thanks Mate! Not as long as some of your monsters but still pretty good.
Should see the coal and iron trains out in WA
Great compilation - perfect for watching when relaxing.
Yes a few beers and 90 minutes of trains. Thanks for looking.
I love this kind of vídeo, It makes me remember my childhood.
Yes I like these compilations as well and why I put it together
19:28 look at the dip in track. Well done ARTC. You’ve done it again. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Mildura line was smoother!
The zoom makes it worse than it is but there are a few holes around Middle Footscray.
Schony747 I’m looking at the sway on the carriages too
8:19 one of the fastest freight trains you'll ever see.
I have seen way larger
I have seen both of what these people have said
They do about 80-90km/h through Victoria street
@@Jordan-jn1vj fastest not longest

1:06:20 My favourite!
The N class Loco? I'm a big fan of the C Class the next train after.
Schony747 yeah C classes are the top locomotive, I love the sounds they are so majestic
defiantly appropriate considering its Australia day
What do you mean. It is very hard to understand your comment.
+mirrabooka2009 It reads - definitely appropriate considering it's Australia Day. I put up an Australian Trains show for Australia Day.

Thank Mate. Thanks for looking.
Beautiful Video
I'm from India 🇮🇳
9 years spent in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 missing you 😘 Brisbane
Thanks for having a look. You need to come back.
Awesome video schony I'm going to go on a xpt train first class in 4 months and I'm kinda scared but you made me feel better thanks for the video I love it
It's a great train to travel on. Enjoy it while it's still here
nice to watch thanks.
Great. Thanks for taking a look.
Excellent video. Wow great views. Thanks for sharing. Really enjoyed this.
Thanks always 😀😀😀😀
Nice video mate......🖒
No worries. Thanks for taking the time to watch the video.

There crossings look and sound just like our crossings here in the USA. 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇦🇺
Certainly do in some parts.
Canada and New Zealand have these Crossings
@@nah_144 yup
Mate your a legend of showing Aussie railways and I love it keep up the good work🇦🇺
Thanks!! 😀😀
@@Schony747 no worries mate anything to make our Aussie rail content on top of any other railway In the world
If only I was as TH-cam famous as you
All I have our two subscribers and you have 10,000 and I respect that a lot
4000 class trains well captured, it may seem like there is a lot of graffiti on our network but there really isn’t too much.
There's lots and it's getting worse. No respect for anything these days but that's the way things are heading.

I love the fact that SAR uses lunar lights at junctions!!!!!
Yes! I didn't even pick up on that.
great work.
Thanks for looking 😀😀
Awesome video...sir👍
Thanks mate
Australia seriously needs high speed rail.
It's been talked about for years and probably won't happen anytime soon.
I grew up in
Korong valèbvalè in
The 1970s and l
Still love the b t and
Y classes
Back in the 70s there was a yard. Very different to today's scene.

@@Schony747 Thanks for taking the time to film / edit such a long video.
6:25-How come we can't have these EMU's here in Southern Ontario in service with GO (Government of Ontario) Transit?
You just answered the question - Goverment. These Oscars are very reliable and popular for the intercity trains it runs on.

@38:46> That second locomotive (ALF23) looks like it has one cab blanked out!!!
Just the angle of the sun mate
@@Schony747 Not so. If you look closely at the second loco, the leading end cab has no windows, doors or headlights. It looks as if the builders decided to not complete one end as some sort of cost-cutting measure.
@@Schony747 These locomotives were remanufactured and had the #2 end cab removed, in addition to new power units and other assorted works.

The locos do look pretty good in the livery. Thsnks for having a look.
Finding the freight coverage a bit much, but really good.
Thanks. I can do more passenger in my next one.

Excellent video, but sometimes you zoom in on the trains a lot more than you should, but otherwise an amazing piece of work!
Thanks! And thanks for the comments. I'm always open to suggestions
At Footscray, where were the sprinters going
Probably Bacchus Marsh
They were heading down the Werribee line though
Ok if that's the case Geelong.
You would think the Geelong line, would off been electrified by now. Are they plaining on electrifying the Geelong line or not.
I think that they were going to but then axed the idea when they were low on money
Any clues about the passenger car at the head of the freight at 45.20?
I don't know too much about the crew cars used by freight companies. These links will give you an idea.

That's a crew car used for the crew onboard Intermodal trains that run across the country.

Those low slung 40 foot container cars, Do they double stack containers on them here like they do in the U.S?
Double stacking takes place between Adelaide and Perth. Everywhere else is single stack due to infrastructure issues such as low bridges that won't allow it.

Yes at 19:02
Alex Mandy more V/Line in other spots too
Why can t we have some astralian trains here in ny?
Nice trains hey 😀😀
New york?. We like here in Australia.
Good video but all of a sudden it went out of focus . Very annoying
That's why I now have a new video camera. The focus problem on the old one ws too expensive to fix.
8:04 what is that freight train?
Also is there any trains around Dandenog in ipthis vido
The first train is a coal train in the Hunter Valley. You won't find any Dandenong trains in this video.
Ok good to know also idc if there are any dandenong trains
the only problem with australian train transport is IT IS SO SLOW
Search up V’locity
Brisbane fast train
Sydney's trains yes being that they're double deckers but not so much with the rest of the cities Brisbanes trains can go as fast as 120km an hour
9:28 F40's?!
Similar in looks but there are a number of differences with the DL locomotive you are referring to
Is it okay if I’m not a kid?
More than OK. As an adult you have a choice to look at so much more as well 😃😃😃😃
in general most of the trains are decades-old like in 3rd world countries, and they rattle!
At least they have Character 😀😀
