Andrew Beisley Thanks! The beeps are from when the ATP (Automatic Train Protection) console is updated. The ATP is updated by transponders on the track, which are the small grey or yellow squares between the rails just before or near signals.
Interesting, does the Australind stop at Armadale, hence the shunt move? If not, how come it doesn't use what is presumably the passing loop? Love these videos by the way, keep up the good work.
I think they should look at Cronulla in Sydney for better track layout sydney trains are around 526f and station almost 120000f perth trains 320f / Australind prob half that and Armidale station 916f
@@BennettBrookRailway that is interesting that the frog is motorized, is that just a narrow gauge thing, I am in Adelaide and none of our broad gauge or standard gauge track has that.
@@joshuabarry3565 Its not specific to narrow gauge.I believe the PTA is gradually modernising and renewing all their points, the more modern ones utilising swing nose crossings.

Nice video, what do all the beeps mean?

Cool, thnaks for the reply. What does it mean when it beeps for eg 0:26

I think the double beep is a warning to the driver that a change of track speed is approaching, but don't quote me on that.
These are awesome. I'd love to see some cab view videos from Australind, Prospector and some freight lines :)
Wow it was really cool seeing what a train driver sees instead of looking out the side

The Australind does indeed stop at Armadale.
even if the Australind don't stop there and go around the passing loop, the stop in where the suburban train stops is on the the points (5:53)

If this is really the Armadale line, where are all the stabbings ?
effectivly you could stable 4 trains there (one in bay platform, two along main platform, one in siding)
but most are stabled up at Claisebrook
Cool
Why does the first set of points have two motors
One set of motors is for the blades and the other is for the moving crossing nose or 'frog'.

Cool stuff. How were you able to get video from the drivers cab?

I know a Transperth railcar driver who sends me footage.

Arrgghh!! Don't stop on a frog!
You'll have to bump your loco with a finger to get it to start again..
Why the annoying music, would be better with the natural sounds, I mean isn't that why we're watching Ffs?
Excellent video, dreadful unnecessary background music.
I genuinely like the guitars.
@@antiussentiment how interesting.
