I was at Blaxland for quite a few years. We occasionally got a cold shower on winter mornings when trains coming down the mountain pulled into the station, melted snow on the roof of the train would come flying off.
Yes, there was a decent fall on Friday and a little again today. In recent years there has tended to be about one decent snowfall per year in the Upper Blue Mountains.
I think my daughter has brought some of our Scottish winter weather with her just to feel a bit more at home haha,she loves the mountains all the best from Scotland.
On average, it only snows a couple of times per year in the Upper Blue Mountains, and snowfall as heavy as in the video doesn't occur every year. I believe Canberra is similar. The Australian Alps are the only area in Australia to have regular, deep snowfalls.
Myles Harris-Ayling thank you for your information. See that double train right? like double decker. I already tried. Nice double train ( kereta tingkat spt bis tingkat). Great video.
They have more snow on the Blue Mountains than Canberra. Katoomba is over 3000ft above sea level whereas Canberra is only about 2000ft. (I live in Canberra).
By rail, the distance from Central station in Sydney to Blackheath is about 75 miles, while the distance by rail from Sydney to Melbourne is about 600 miles.
The main reason there is freight trains, it is the main western line from Sydney to all points west to Broken Hill, located on the western boarder of the state of New South Wales, it therefore has mixed rail traffic, the line continues via South Australia to Western Australia, it is the main east west line for all interstate freight traffic since 1970, the line also deals with intrastate freight & passenger traffic, as well export coal trains from the western coal fields west of Lithgow.
I love the sound of V-set engines.
Motors, not "engines". Electric = "motors".
thank you for this video, I really enjoy watching the snow .
Wow the snow is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Fantastic video! Of only I could see this in person.
Good to see the snow. Thanks

Melicia yes but only in the mountains, sometimes in Hobart, last time it snowed in Melbourne it was in the 80s.
Why Is There Freight Trains
The main reason there is freight trains, it is the main western line from Sydney to all points west to Broken Hill, located on the western boarder of the state of New South Wales, it therefore has mixed rail traffic, the line continues via South Australia to Western Australia, it is the main east west line for all interstate freight traffic since 1970, the line also deals with intrastate freight & passenger traffic, as well export coal trains from the western coal fields west of Lithgow.
