- In one of life’s happy coincidences, Lachlan Valley Railway were in Taree at the same time as I was, running their two car Railmotor on school holiday shuttles. My friend invited me for a cab ride! Enjoy the beautiful Mid North Coast scenery on this quick trip up to Mount George and back!
Good to see what was made here in Australia is still running strong
keep up the good work
This set was in Junee in about 2022, sitting in front of the station.
The one I rode to Richmond had a GM. I remember wondering why a train was making that noise like a bus engine.
I noticed two old AEC Reliances in the West Bankstown Bus Service colours sitting in a front yard from the train back in 1990.
Enjoyed the ride along.
@@colinsmith6280 awesome!
Great video...thank you Steve..
All that sunshine when you could be painting the bus.
@@derekhindle5219 haha I know!!
Wow just wow.. amazing to see the XPT still running especially as the UK is slowly getting rid of our HST 125 but here in Scotland we are holding strong with them still running services up and down the country due to a similar situation with the lines not being electrified completely yet.
I love the XPT. Sadly it will soon be replaced by something plastic and soulless....
Good to see XPT using the HST 125, here in the UK ( Great Yarmouth) there being stored for Export to Mexico of all places!😊
they are a great train!
Great video Steve. Looking now the station is all that's left. The old SM residence (where Goody lived, and I spent many a night there sleeping over when we were kids) is now gone. Loco and the maintenance yards, and the water tanks are all gone. What was once a hive of employment and activity is now very deserted.
@@leswilliams5974 it is very disappointing. Thanks for watching!
Gobsmacked to see the HST125. Thought Australia got rid of them a couple of years ago? We have some 60 yr old Class 37's that are still being used! After years of chip, computer tech etc, good old engineering reigns! Loved the vid!
thankyou! Yes they are still in service, and personally I wish they would stay forever. In my opinion they are a handsome train, especially with the stainless steel cars.
Great video there, Steve. I really enjoyed it. Thank you very much for the video.
you're welcome, and thanks for watching!
@@stevestufff You're
Absolutely, welcome.
I used to driver drive intercity 125's in England until they took away from 3 years ago. Great video
@@JMOELEPHANT thankyou for watching 😬
@@stevestufff wait what I didn’t post this
@@JMOELEPHANT you didn’t post the original message? That’s weird.
Everyone wearing big winter coats while here in England at 20 degrees centigrade I am wearing at shirt! It’s going to be 18 degrees and wet this weekend. Got to love a British summer. 23 degrees is hot here in the north of England.
@@stevenmoran4060 haha it was a cold day!
In another of life's coincidences, I was on that same XPT trip 😆
@@dylancaple haha really?! That’s funny!
Very good. Will we get to see Eggins Steve ?
the depot? You want a video? Or do you mean the bus?
@@stevestufff The depot 👍🏻
@@harrycallaghan3057 ok. I will see what I can do 😏
The designer of the Class 43 HST, Sir Kenneth Grange has sadly passed this week
@@martinbalmforth2665 I heard that yeah. It was/is a great looking train.
I have family that lives cross from the train station in Taree and I still have family living in the Taree area
it's been a hive of activity!
What music used at 9:01?
@@Lukas_Irwin hi mate. It is all the same track from the editing app. I think it’s called Jazz Hop Summer.
@@stevestufff Ah, I like it it's very catchy suits the ride.
