Tbh my biggest surprise was seeing actual people get on at Goornong. 3. Given the size of the town never expected even that.
The service is growing over time. 👍😄
Can't wait to see the new Pakenham skyrail !
It'll be coming here in the future. 😄😄👍
1:22:30 The Mitre 10 store(at left), *"Hume & Iser"* Hume'n'Iser.... Humaniser! LOL😄
😄😄👍
@neilforbes416 mitre 10 you dont see much of those around anymore
@@Mediawatcher2023not sure where you are but see plenty across Victoria. That or Home Hardware. In most regional towns.
@@xr6lad there's one in my area but not where Neil lives
I have done this trip many times by road and also to Swan Hill. Both destinations a railway construction engineers dream. Track laying and ballast were probably the main logistics, although the closer the proximity to Bendigo it's a case of "Holy increasing,but mild, undulations Batman". A commenter below thought it was a long trip. It's tempting but you can't legally do it in any faster on the road. Many thanks.
You're welcome. Very happy you enjoyed it 👍 😄
The H Sets are still sitting there at Echuca.🙂
They certainly are 👍😄
Must have been a big match on. Looks like a lot of Footscray supporters in Bendigo heading to the city.
There was a game on that day. 👍😄
Pretty long trip
its an only an hour between two cities if you traveling by car but you add 30 minutes by train travel
Why does the train trip add 30 minutes to the trip?
@@MargaretCampbell583 There are slowing down and stopping at stations, which on average is 2-4 minutes, there are 6 or 7 stations, do the sums.
@@palamco Yes exactly
@@palamco Of Course. I forgot about that. Thanks 😁
I still find it impressive how straight the line is between towns.🤓
Straight and fairly flat. 😄😄👍
57:23 Epsom - a "salty" old place, this! LOL😁
Omg 🙄 He's back.... 🤣🤣👍
@@driver667 LOL🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@neilforbes416 😄👍
Well said.😁 I'll never watch a train pass through Epsom again without thinking of this comment. 😆 (I wish I'd thought of it.)🤔
@@martythemartian99 🤣👍
Did you download the Videos from your channel to put them all together for a full trip video.?
I put it all together from my videos on my computer. Some people like the long ones. 👍😄
@@driver667 which computer do you use Windows or Mac?
@@vlinenclasstrains windows. 👍😄
@@driver667 Nice

“Drivers eye…”
Since Epsom station, 2,500 snails have sped past this train! LOL😁
It was a bit of a slow trip at the end. 🤔👍😄
@neilforbes416 on the serious side how would you like to live at echuca at this time of year weather wise getting high of 13c and getting low of 7c overnight sometimes it can get down to low as minus 3.
@@Mediawatcher2023 brrrrrr.
@@driver667 yes i live in southern NSW its abit like that
@@Mediawatcher2023 You'll know it's *really* cold when you see a dog frozen to a tree! LOL🤫
Why did the velocity go slow while arriving into Bendigo?
I heard an announcement around Epsom about something to do with them having received a warning/report of intruders on the track ahead and they had been instructed to reduce speed.
Correct, police request due to trespassers on track. 👍😄
General question when u apply for a trainee driver position do u get a cert 4 by applying to that?
Once qualified a cert 4 is attained. 👍😀
So u can apply and then h get your cert 4 at the end of a trainee driver,
@@Trainspottervic yes, as long as you qualify. 👍😄
What were all those carriages doing there covered in graffiti?
It looked to me like they weren't doing anything. 😁
They are stored pending a decision on their future. 👍😀
