    It's changed a bit from when I used to commute between Melton and SPENCER STREET(!) back in the 80's

    2:28 HA! 🤣 Looks like I didn't need to ask about the Boral Quarry Siding in a previous video. All I needed to do is wait till this one. Marty needs to be more patient. 😁

    When will we see a Vlocity pass through Ararat on the standard gauge line via Geelong

    • @driver667
      @driver667  4 месяца назад +1

      Don't hold your breath. The only route we run standard gauge vlocity units on at the moment is Albury. 👍😀

    what are the two inboard rails for? they start with a v and either end truncated or with a reverse v.

    2stations that were a complete waste of money Caroline Springs and Cobblebank you could walk from Caroline Springs to Deer Park easy enough . bus service should have sufficed same with Cobblebank

    • @driver667
      @driver667  4 месяца назад +3

      We do get quite a few people from both of those stations. They very much help ease the parking problems at other stations by providing many more spaces whereas Melton and Deer Park are full and overflowing with cars during the day. 👍😀

      I used to travel up to Ballarat and Ballan very often. I used to see the parking was always full. So so many new people moved in and continue to do so. You have some beautiful shots there Colin 😊
