Twenty years of Streamliners - NSW - 1996 to 2015

- "Simply Streamliners" was a video prepared to help promote the "Streamliners 2016" event held in Goulburn. The video consists of footage recorded over twenty years of members of the Australian “STREAMLINER” classes of locomotives working around NSW. Over 100 different trains are shown, each one with a Streamliner up front. Members of the 42, 421, GM, CLP, CLF, B & S classes are seen hard at work in combination with a huge variety of other locomotives.
Its really interesting how these locomotives are so similar to the American ones yet so different. Literally the best video on youtube.
I like this because it gives me a better snapshot of what railroading here in the US may have looked like during the early years of complete dieselization.
Exept the Australian ones are way cooler than tye F7 and the E8

Bevan… ❤ your stuff! Truly a diesel man👍🏻 great too these grand ladies were still working, unlike their cousins here in the States, where they’re mostly retired
Great Video ! Super collection of streamliners in action. Showing Passenger as well as Freight service.
I don't know how any Railfan can give this a thumbs down! I'm glad that over 3 to 1 gave Thumbs UP!
Excellent job
Why can I just give 1 thumbs up? This one needs a 1000. Minimal!
Awesome looking trains 🖒🏻
Great video, and a new sub from IL, good catch
Found your channel by accident. Excellent video quality, excellent location choice, excellent camera work. Totally enjoyable professional program. Really enjoyed it. Greetings from a former Railfan video producer in Tucson, Arizona, USA.
Loved these, thank you!
Hi Bevan, Great viewing as usual, what great memories of my past.
You always have had the best video... Great work 👏
great work !
Wow, absolutely beautiful diesel locos. Excellent presentation. Greetings from me and Germany.
When you think you have already seen the most exiting diesel videos, and then you find this one.
The best Ear Viagra on this planet, and 1,5 hours of sheer neighbour terror, at least when they don't like trains.
Cowan Bank was the absolute summit of this video, especially the train that had 2 GM and 2 Alco streamliners in front.
Imagine living next to these climbing up a steep hill. I'd be the only one who could sleep in the hood
Great video but the sound of these old timers really brought me back. Thank you for a great memory.
I love streamliners!! It is great to see them still in use in Australia. Here in the USA they are only seen in museums or at events such as the "Streamliners in Spencer" North Carolina. Check it out here on You Tube. I was able to go to the event a few years back and I have to say it was the most fun I have had in years. The EMD E's and F's were just at the end of their life when I was a little kid. The thing I noticed in your videos was the horns are on the hood, instead of the roof. Do you have low tunnels? Or is there some other reason for their location on the hood?
Great compilation. So looking forward to visiting from the UK for Streamliners 2021.
cmeonthemove a lot of these scenes are close to Sydney, which is surrounded by national parks and very rugged country. Beautiful.
Combining both my big passions, railways and landscapes.
Better come quickly, all the old locomotives are being retired and scrapped
Excellent video!!!!!
Love the sound.
I’m surprised that 4483 hasn’t been broken up it’s been sitting for that long last o heard it’s was in a container yard on blocks minus bogies
205,000 views for 1,000 likes.. Man.. that's a bit stingy.. Great vid, thanks.
thank you
R-I-P CLF 7 it has gone to train heaven
That diesel and steam consist at 26:00 is freaky!
Awesome stuff . . .
Those Great Northerns looked a treat. What happened to them? Bevan your archival record of NSW trains is and will be a treasure for the people of NSW and Australia. Thank you mate for sharing.
They were purchased by SSR and are still in regular service.
great train mix, greetings Tomek from Poland!
Love the sound of those locos

Super video great
Szuper gépek! !
Best locomotive! !!!!
Awesome
parabéns exelente vídeo Brasil São Paulo
Great video... where these streamliners built by EMD (GM at that time) in Australia? Why did they run them for so long? They were pretty gone in the US by the 1970s
The locomotive lot in Australia is pretty poor unless you are in the coal mining industry and iron ore
The EMD streamliners were built under license from 1951 by Clyde Engineering for Commonwealth Railways (South Australia based) Victorian Railways from 1952 and NSW Railways from 1955. They lasted so long because (a) they were reliable, (b) Australian railways weren't exactly flush with cash to replace them, and (c) the last ones, Commonwealth Railways CL class, were only built in the late 60s. They were sort of like an SD40 in a hood. Following rebuilding in the late 1990s, they're still going round with Genesee & Wyoming Australia. Southern Shorthaul Railroad (NSW based) also has some earlier ones, including one of the original 1951 batch. Hate to think how many million KM it's done!
Yes I must admit that are and sound great but if I was able to get my hands on one I'd turn it in to myself standing home and the cab I'd turn that in to my radio room for my UHF radios but in all I love them
this video is probably as close as one could get to an overdose of EMD 567 and 645 sound. Talks all over everything else, including the alcos and those little caterpillar driven 47 class
Great! Marvellous! What else should I say?
Hold on ... They used great northern in australia?! 🤔🤔 Or is this video of the u.s. and I'm confused on the location?
Oh, wow ... This is in australia 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 dude ... How?!?
exelente vídeo Brasil São Paulo
Totally awesome! Which gauges are represented? This is the first I have heard of Santa Claus in Australia! Greetings from the USA!
Great video for a European. Don't know much about your RR. Now I seem to know a little bit more. Thanks so much!
Paul van Schaik Believe it or not, you Europeans actually had a handful of your own streamliners. They were made in the US/were on license from US manufacturers just like the units seen here were. The only real difference is your streamliners were double-ended, having a cab at each end.
Amém DEUS ABENÇOE: show vídeo Brasil São Paulo 👏👍🤓
La S 302 es ex nacionales de México ?
No, S 300 es 100% australiano hecho y operado. Nunca salí del país.
The Question is the who was Great Northern.
GNR NSW
Why hasn't Australia adopted the use of double stack intermodal cars like the US? They don't seem to have the things issues that would keep countries in Europe from adopting it like overhead wires and tunnels. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've just thought about that.
I have seen they have on some lines like the line to Alice Springs.
But the lines shown in this video are for a large part in places that prohibit the use of double stack cars, there are for instance overhead lines in and around most of the big cities, lots of bridges which are too low or tunnels without enough clearance.
The cost to replace all bridges and tunnels would be too great, and then there still is the issues with the overhead wires, double stack trains have to stop before entering these urban area's and the containers then must be unstacked and partialy stored to enable the train to enter that area or transshipped on trucks for the last 100 miles or so, both add extra cost and time into the system so doesn't make sense.
In general the loading gauge on most lines is just slightly bigger than the European but not as generous as the US loading gauges.
In fact their streamliners looked like F units but were slightly reduced in height, the design of the B class stood model for the European GM streamliners, we called them Nohabs bij the factory who built them, they were very similar in all respects to the B class, but the roofs were more rounded for the European loading gauge, height was similar.
We do but it’s not really a thing on the east coast especially in urban areas, from things like wires to tunnels to bridges there’s many reasons why they don’t get double stacked, but for more trans-continental trains they do double stacking and it’s fairly common on Trans-continental frieght trains
Wait 2:51 is that Wabco AA2?
Pair of Australian Westinghouse horns. The type described around the 13.35 mark in this video: ruclips.net/video/h_t8e1BVVBQ/видео.html
Lord Farkiplier Sure sounds like it

There's one in every crowd.

In Australia electric doesn't always equal green. Most of our electricity is generated by coal, certainly in NSW. Dealing with climate change has been a very contentious issue for over a decade.
@@imacgra1 most electric ♒city is by nuke 💮turbines , not coal✴which is depleting⌛⬇ it's stocks . Fyi.😢
No chance buddy
