I live in Kerang and I’ve been here all my life unfortunately V/line took out some of the track at the Wellington street crossing so there’s been 0 steam trains for years. Also good job on the video
Cameron is one of my safeworking supervisors ! He oversee's signalbox operations around the Melbourne network and also sorts out disruptions and disabled trains.
Amazing what pops up in RUclips! An excellent timpiece, capturing the colonial differences along with mixed British and American practice. And yes, those Bulldogs are hanging in!
Alot has changed at Sydney's Central Station since 1995. You can now catch a train to the Domestic & International Airports. There's now a tram network in Sydney that has returned. If you're ever back in Australia, Sydney has lots you can see by train..... Blue Mountains, Kiama Blowhole, Newcastle.....
It's cool you got to see the old blue & white QR colour scheme. They had an interesting mix of English Electric & EMD locos, whereas Vic had mainly EMD. That's like most of Australia - bit of UK influence, bit of USA influence.
Oh to have a dollar for everytime I went over that crossing at Brooklyn either on a train or in the car. Had to rewind when I heard you say Cameron's name. Always knew things would be alright when you called Brooklyn office on the radio and heard him reply.
Have any photos of the ADL/ADC DMUs or the ADK/ADB DMUs? New Zealand to date uses the ADL/ADC sets in Auckland for Sub-Urban -> Urban/Central Commute. Not long-distance anymore, just a commute to 2 unelectrified stations since 2015. Any DQ locomotives? Imported to NZ via Wisconsin Central Ltd's company called Tranzrail.
Well you got to Kathrine but since it was 1995 the Ghan only reched to the town of Alice Springs down south so it would of been a good place to watch trains but anyways in 2002 or 2003 the Ghan now reaches Darwin passing Kathrine with a Level Crossing before the national park.
Lol, love how you pronounce "Bendigo"....try saying it like this "Ben-Dee-Go". It's a pity you did not get to tour Adelaide South Australia, maybe next time.....Ps, it's your toilet water that goes the wrong way mate!

I love your travelogue. It's funny and hilarious, yet informative :)
Thanks Bagus! I hope to have one about Indonesia too soon!
Excellent video man , I live in NSW and I have also lived in San Bernardino, CA and I love American and Australian EMD’s and GE’s

Nice job, good shots. Last of the Kodachromes?
I stayed with Kodachrome until 2000.

I still get to drive the N classes on passenger trains in Victoria. The last of "Suburban/interurban" locomotive hauled trains in Australia
Soon to be replaced by something that sounds like a vacuume cleaner.
Great video, like how you've researched the EMD model numbers of our locos. Are you pictures available to see anywhere?

Any correct pronunciations is a happy accident.
Where the heck is “Tottingham”? At least you pronounced “Brisbane” ok, but “Ben-DIG o?
Won’t be last time i mess up pronunciation! Lucky if I spell it correctly.
Yeah it's spelt Tottenham
Hahaha. those Aussie don't know good music
plenty of aussies that love good music , just that we also suffer from the global problem of young idjuts with absolutly no music taste..
