i always found Dandenong to Pakenham deceptively further than my perception.
It does seem to take a bit of time to get there. 👍😀
Fascinating video
I subscribed to your channel
Thank you. Welcome to the channel. 👍😀
at 0:54, there are three signs on the lights; I assume the P and C stand for Pakenham and Cranbourne what does the S stand for?
'S' stands for siding. The Bombardier/Alstom siding around the corner. The vlocity units are built there. 👍😀
Is that all new overhead wire between Dandenong and Pakenham?
The overhead has been renewed over the years with different projects still changing things. 👍😀
in comparison what you did six months ago with the same route the sky rail as progressed well only thing to do is build the new pakenham station
Yes. I will be making a new video of the area once Narre Warren and Pakenham are both open. 👍😀🎄
@@driver667 that be good 😃
@@Mediawatcher2023 👍😀
@@driver667 the Narre Warren has a fare bit to go
3:04 The abandoned General Motors Railway Station
I stopped many trains at that station 👍😀
@@driver667 i assume that was a employee only ststion?
@@knightman1970 no, it was a station for anybody but due to it's position, the main people using it were going to or from work at the nearby factories 👍😀
I see that the new Pakenham Station is the top one still unfinished until 2024! Narre Warren's new bridge was just built now will look forward new station in 2024! Thanks for sharing with us!😉👌🚂
I will do a new video in the new year for Narre Warren and Pakenham when they are both open as new stations. Glad you are enjoying them 👍😀🎄
Good Morning, Putty Cat, How is your weather there getting warmer, well here in Florida windy and rainy. I enjoyed the ride.
Weather is slowly getting warmer. A couple of days of 30 degrees (86f) then cool again. Can't make up it's mind 🤣 Glad you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀 🐈🐈
I love the videos, but can't do the VLocties, they really need to be renamed and called ATROCITIES! Thanks for the Horsham to Melbourne video! Keep up the good work
I guess the vlocity railcars aren't for everyone but they have certainly played their part in boosting services. Glad you enjoyed the Horsham run. I'll keep more coming. 👍😀🎄
What’s wrong with them
@@starktravels172 some people just prefer loco hauled I guess. I like all trains although I do like driving the locomotives. 👍😀
@@driver667 the train guards are using the emergancy mics for announcements oh well goes to show of cost cutting haha
We haven't had guards on the train for years. Just the driver and the conductor. The conductor roves through the train checking tickets, making announcements and generally looking after the passengers. 👍😀
👍👍👍
Glad you liked it 👍😀
Awesome 👍
Very happy you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀
Foarte frumos!❤
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. 👍😀🎄
any passengers for the Cranbourne line change at Dandenong
Yes, hopefully the PA was working 🤣👍😀🎄
Is the Cranbourne line capable of hosting a vlocity train if it is required?
@@alanindarwin8394 there should be no problem. No vline drivers are qualified to Cranbourne though. 👍😀
@@driver667 it be ideal it makes sense in a way
@@driver667 If only the South Gippy line was still open. One of the many lines I'd love reopened in my ideal fantasy world
