    5:15 I know from experience that you can't trust people on the south coast to obey the stop signs at the crossings. Seen a few near misses, and there have been a few collisions in recent years. A dump truck can leave a nasty dent in a railcar.

      It would be nice if they just observed the road rules. 🤔👍😀

    14:43 If anyone is interested, the land on the right side of Middleton Station is for sale. Good place to build your own little trainspotting paradise, and its only $8 million.😵

    If I watch this video three or four times I too will be "qualified for the road". The track needs a good "lift & pack" tamping in places too. A lovely jaunt idling along in one or two notch. Is that Ordinary Train Staff or Train Order Working on that line?

      @driver667  Месяц назад

      Train orders is the safe working system along this line. Glad you enjoyed the ride. 👍😀
