Superb day .... Enjoyed the Sunday immensely with both James Coy, Rob Walters and Len Poorter too! Great video
Just caught up to this video, well worth it indeed.
I use to volunteer with SRHC as a Train Officer, and they were great times! I do like the direction they’re taking to try and cater to the travel/tourism market.
Great video, particularly including the footage of the 707 Ops and SRV tours roaring up there!
Great coverage as usual! Love the angles
Cheers man!
Magnificent.
Thank!
Thanks Will. Great video. They do a good job. Cheers Peter.
Thanks Peter!
Fantastic, Will
Thanks Bill!
We were there on April 29. Drove across from Castlemaine. It was a brilliant day! Got to ride in the diesel and chat to some really great volunteers and guys who worked on the trains.
Great, origination and good video Will. I lived there years ago and often called in to see customers in Seymour and had never seen this before. I will have to go back now Ime retired 👍
Brilliant video Will James
Thank you!
Loved this video Will and definitely placing this event on my bucket list
Thanks!
Seeing S307 start up was the best part at the open day in my opinion
Certainly!
Super nice video! There is me on 5:43 videoing the ceremony of S307. I went there on the 29th April, and my favorite locomotives are B74 & T357. Thanks for sharing the info. Cheers, Rifky.
Nice one!
@@WillJamesRailways Thank You
great video good content
Thanks!
Drove the kids down from Wodonga for the day and had a great time, especially the cab ride. My daughter loved pulling the horn 😅 keen to come back next open day!
Excellent to hear!
G'day Will, thanks for the heads up on the event and group, l will have a look next year as l don't live to far away, cheers mate, keep on tracks, Neil.
Thank you!
I went there on the Sunday and S307 was started up again. The Y class, Y119 is the depot shunter and was formerly Ballarat yard pilot
Nice!
Great video mate, was certainly an enjoyable weekend. Have been a member/volunteer for several years at SRHC, and been on heaps of their tours. They certainly do have a very nice collection of rollingstock and locos.
Thanks! Ah excellent to hear! I’m pretty keen to be on the up coming Portland trip!
Went on the Sunday and been on a few tours including the recent S307 tour
Nice one!
lol i saw both of these steam trains in the weekend i was at my step mums mothers house and she lives in braudford across from the train lines so me and my dad saw the 707 come thru and then we saw the A2 class come thru at the seymour open day coz me and my dad went i got in the can of the VR diesel engine i forgot the class name tho. :)
Nothing beats the sound of an EMD diesel notching up! 🥰
I went pre-COVID, a miserable day weather wise but seeing all those trains sure made up for it. I got to walk through a B class and toot the horn on a T class. Big kid fantasy fulfilled! :)
Will, wow, what an interesting place.
I saw a number of locomotives, and went, I have a model of that one, and that one, and that one. You get the idea.
The classic Diesels that I love.
Thank you for sharing some information on what is a very interesting centre.
Cheers, and stay safe, Michael
Thanks Michael! They certainly do have a great collection!
Very nice video I did eventually meet you for the first time which was a pleasure
Thank you!
Nice video Will. SRHC is a group I would like to ride a tour with one day. Hopefully they will do there Traralgon Walhalla tour to Gippsland and that's a tour I would like to ride. - Nicholas.
Portland in a couple of weeks! There’s still tickets available!
Went down with 707 operations on the 29th and went to SRHC on the 30th, great weather and awesome day! Had lots of fun.
A great day out!
i was at the srhc on the 29 along with 707 operations but sadly i missed out on some of the cool events that happened like the reactivation of S307 and the turning of R707 on the turntable
i just hope i dont miss out on anything in the Newport workshops open day next year
Still good to hear you went! Pretty keen for the Newport Open days!
Still good to hear you went! Pretty keen for the Newport Open days!
Dam, I was heading to puffing Billy on the 29th but saw r707 leave for Melbourne, no idea that this was happening and the next day I was at puffing billy, so I kinda missed it.
No good! It is feedback like this which prompted me to start the preservation news videos!
It’s wonderful seeing everyone having such a good time
Can’t have a bad time at an open day!
We feel privileged watching these great informative shows
Thanks man!
The closing footage, 8:20 to 9:02 is fantastic.
Thank you mate!
When I went there on the Sunday, I wasn't expecting to see A2 986! It was a wonderful time, and blowing the horn on X31 is an experience I'll never forget!
Excellent to hear!
