Trains & Trams at South Yarra - Melbourne Transport

- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- In this video we visit South Yarra, a major station in Melbourne's inner south east that serves as the junction of the Sandringham line from the Cranbourne/Frankston/Pakenham lines. The area around South Yarra has become increasingly dense in recent years with a lot of new apartment and office buildings in the immediate vicinity around the station.
Here we see various trains around the station, including Metro Comeng, Siemens and X'trapolis EMU's, and some V/Line Vlocities. We then head outside of the station where we see some trams on route 58, and see some more trains at trackside spots around the station, including the Maryvale Paper Train.
South Yarra opened in December 1860 as 'Gardiner Creek Road' as one of the original stations on the Sandringham line. Over time the station was expanded, with the current station constructed likely constructed in the 1910's when the line from South Yarra to Caulfield was quadruplicated. Just south of the station work is underway to construct the southern portal of the Metro Rail Tunnel which is due to open in 2025. This has seen the entire alignment for the Cranbourne/Frankston/Pakenham lines rebuilt to make way for the tunnel portal.
Controversially the Metro Rail Tunnel which will be served by the Cranbourne and Pakenham lines will bypass South Yarra station. Some argue that a South Yarra station on the Metro Rail Tunnel should be built to provide connectivity with other rail lines and serve the busy precinct, but this has been dismissed as being too costly and requiring a lot of land acquisition.

Wow I was filming there today in the exact same spot...

Hi again I found Garry he managed to escape and I found him in the shed 😮🙄😱😢
Good stuff, don't lose him again
I still remember that day we were there pretty well! Great stuff!
One would wonder, how many less trains would travel through once the Metro tunnel opens.
Those older metro trains look and sound a lot nicer than the newer ones
Oh hi busofdoom, hope you are having a good day :)
i have never seen a comeng with that mustache livery before. it suits them!
Haha, that's to advertise Movember.
I been there
o god i missed it, when will the next one be
What will happen to platforms 5&6 when the tunnel is completed? Seeing as Cranbourne and Pakenham won’t serve them
They'll still have V/Line and freight trains pass through them, but I'd say they'll sit disused with no passenger trains using them.
@@ThebusofdoomFSX pretty sure they may run at least a few direct services to flinders street from Packy/Crandburne
My guess is the only suburban trains that may use platforms 5&6 include:
-- Frankston services during maintenance works on Frankston tracks between the City & Caufield
-- Cranbourne/Pakenham line services during maintenance works in Metro Tunnel.
@@genezou4337 good assumption
The PTV network development plan suggested terminating Geelong line services there, so that might eventually end up happening.
But 2025 is only 5 months :(

@Matthew Norman They used to and I miss them they got rid of them in 2019 for the refurbishment of the comings
