As someone who cannot travel its wonderful to put my computer on full screen sit back and enjoy a nice train ride thank you !
You're welcome. I'm glad they help you travel around the countryside. 👍😀
Thanks driver 667god bless you and your family Warren and Ingrid Melbourne Australia 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 per cent ❤❤😮😊😊🧐🧐🤠🤠
Thank you. All the best to you guys also. Glad you enjoyed it 👍😀
The station building at Williams Landing is in the style of an old VR passenger carriage in blue livery. I always feel very nostalgic when I drive past it! Kudos to the architects. 😃
I never thought about it that way 🤔 Good job 👍😊
Thanksgiving Day, could not eat it all, I have some left over for today. Thanks for the ride and view, Putty Cat.
Glad to hear you enjoyed thanksgiving 👍 and happy you enjoyed the video 👍😊
Thanks heaps for a great video & trip. This one took me back many years travelling back &. Forth to Geelong. Lara reminded me of the fires, very sad! I went through the next day. Cheers from Wagga.
Very happy you enjoyed the ride and the trip back years ago. 👍😊
Remember going through North Shore about 23 years ago late evening lying in my bed window blind up on the Overland heading to Adelaide. Fun trip.
Pity it is not still an overnight trip 👍😊
16:20 Aah, *To the "Manor" Born!* LOL

@@neilforbes416 well it kind of fits in with the towns name
One of my guilty pleasures if listening to the Ka'au Crater Boys style of Hawaiian music. 😎
All through this video, I kept thinking about this song. th-cam.com/video/SFGgkZwrOpE/w-d-xo.html
😀😀👍
Love the sound of the EMD at idle
They do have a good sound to them 👍 Glad you enjoyed it 👍 😀
I do too
I always drive to Geelong so it is good to see what the train trip looks like. 😊 Excellent video. Thank you 🙏🏻

G'day, the line to Gelong to Melbourne was only two lines for a long time the line you were running on must be the newcomer, I'm not a fan of the new concept of railway stations I still like the old historical building retained as part of the upgrade, thanks for the trip down the line, cheers mate, Neil 🤠.
This line is SG.
The line we are on is the standard gauge interstate line. The Geelong line beside us are the local tracks to Geelong and are broad gauge. Glad you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀
Geez, 2 Sct depots west of Melbourne lol
I wonder if it would be viable to make a Standard Gauge platform at Werribee or Newport similar to the ones at Broadmeadows and North Shore? Just for a bit of convenience for passengers who want to ride on The Overland or other SG passenger trains heading that way so they don't have to go all the way to Southern Cross in order to board.
Nice idea but I don't think it will happen. Passengers travel to North Shore to board if they are not going into Melbourne. 🤔👍😊
I preferred going to Melbourne or back to Geelong via Werribee rather than the regional rail link via Tarneit/Wyndham vale.
It's a shame V/Line doesn't occasionally train drivers on this route so that when there are problems, they could go via the old route like they used to.
There are not many of us still qualified via Werribee. Occasionally I have run via Werribee when there have been problems via the RRL. 👍😊
I was under the impression that the "S" class belonged to the Seymour people,yet it ends at Newport ,the home of 707 Operations and Steamrail,was it on loan?
It didn't end up at Newport, there is no standard gauge into Newport Workshops. There is one more instalment of this trip to go. 👍🤣
ok.many thanks.@@driver667

I’m curious with how the speed signalling works on the line. The starting signals from the loop line can only display a medium speed aspect and the following signal is an automatic acting as a distant for the next loop so how does the train get permission to resume normal speed without a signal or is it just based on the idea that once the train is clear of the points that they can return to normal speed? I doubt they’d be travelling at 40km/h across an entire section so I’m assuming there’s a resumption of normal speed at some point
During my time at Wodonga Locomotive Depot (1969-1974), the driver could exit a loop at 25 mph (we're talking ancient history here), and resume normal/maximum speed once the last carriage has departed the loop.
Yes, once clear of the points we can resume normal speed. 👍😊
