A compilation of scenes that illustrate the unique liveries applied by private operators to those members of the NSWGR 44 class that survived the great Alco extinction of 1994.
Love the hire train at the end love the glagg and engines in nice clean livery, would love to have been in one of those carriages. jealous of NSW historical
For a defunct locomotive company, Alco diesels have stuck around quite tenaciously. It's cool that Australia still has a decent number of their six-axle Alco's left.
Tidied up 4471 nicely after its badly faded state rail ? paint job.. JL406 looking pretty sad.. 4488 looks "pretty" in that colour scheme.. 4463 needs a bit of TLC.. Great compilation Bevan thanks for the upload :)
I spent about 6 hours on that footbridge in 2009 (opening shot) and was rewarded with two trains :-( I'll check my photos, but I think one was a 44 😃 Edit:flic.kr/p/ewJWuS
No matter the livery, it's always great to see the 44s in action. The final scenes with a pure lash up of 4 of them are priceless!!
It's amazing how far you can hear the rumble of an EMD to be honest
They're Clyde not EMD
@@AussieGunzel clyde built EMD locos under license...
This is a rock solid railway video.

The 44s are great to see in action, but the scene at 8:40 steals the show for me.
Wow . great liveries !
4463 - The Beast.
These along with the 48’s are my favourite diesels, and trust me i dont like many diesels
Great footage, you have / had it all, monster banks, monster thrash and monster clag.What horsepower are these locomotives?

superb video AAA!
The cabs at the rear of the 44 class, are they a fully functioning cab for every day use, or just used for shunting?🇦🇺
The rear of the 44 class is interesting
I think there are four 44 classes diesels operational for QUBE (4458 / 4477 / 4488 and 4497)
Great Video 😊
Where was the shot at 2:34 taken?
Locksley
