What's crazy, is the last time I rode a Comeng on the Dandenong corridor was on November 30 2022. Not long after that it was pretty much 100% HCMT. But now, a year to the day exactly of that, you were riding another type of train that typically doesn't travel on the group. Things have definitely changed a lot in just a few years. Merry christmas.
Only somewhat related, but I've noticed the most common time a Comeng will run a Pakenham service these days, is as an events special at night after a major event has concluded (footy, cricket, rugby, football (soccer), basketball).
So when I was going to Werribee at the junction after north Melbourne I saw an xtrapoils train heading to upfield for some reason and I was surprised because the xtrapoils train never went there and I was so shocked
its funny how i only catch siemens and comeng, the siemens sound just gives me ptsd, do like it tho, better than the xtraps even tho i want them to replace the edi comeng, personally not a fan

Crazy how time flies! Merry Christmas
Nice, a rare but cool occurrence.
I'm someone who definitely went out of my way to ride a HCMT when they first started rolling out onto the Pakenham line.
Merry Christmas Straya 🎄😁
Thank you. To you too!
Merry Christmas. I saw Siemens on these lines as well. Unfortunately I did not ride it.

Most likely to Macaulay Stable Sidings
remember seeing this happening sadly could only get 2 clips but history is history?
At least you got two clips. Prob will happen again
Do you know if there was any particular reason why they were running Siemens sets on this occasion?
Not sure
