    This week Schony747 features the 1000 Meter SSR Broad Gauge Infrastructure Train. The train was sent to Seymour from Melbourne to help bed down some new cement railway sleepers. The train did multiple trips over a number of days between Seymour and Managalore which is located north of Melbourne. Once again, SSR rolled out the vintage locomotive consist lead by the ever popular B Class Streamliners. The consist was in push pull mode with 48 wagons in between.

    Thankyou for bringing us another ripper Brendan. I think a lot of GV residents who use the train to Melbourne will be thankful for these upgrades. A bit of a pity the ‘N sets’ are gone now, but I guess that’s progress.

    Great video. Do these streamlines still lead trains or are they all now retired? If not yet how much longer will they be in service?

    • @Schony747
      @Schony747  24 дня назад +1

      They still lead train but more often than not are trailing units. They will be around for as long as SSR here in Victoria see them as a viable option for running trains.

      QLD coal trains used to do a similar thing didn’t they? With a radio transmitter car in the middle as well?

    • @Schony747
      @Schony747  2 месяца назад +1

      The use of mid locos is not overly common here. You'll find a few on coal trains in such places as the Hunter Valley and ore trains in Western Australia but it's not Common on mainline freights

      Both trains had drivers. I'm not sure who and what was controlling what. I assume the front would control the whole lot.

    What was the actual purpose for the train running to Seymour and back? Did they deliver ballast in those containers? Or rail? Seemed like a lot of empty wagons in both directions.

    • @Schony747
      @Schony747  2 месяца назад

      It was to bed down the new concrete sleepers with the existing rail

      At Seymour they could probably stable the train between Seymour and Mangalore as it was a total occupation. The other option would be Seymour loop just south of Seymour

      He indeed could have used more punctuation, nevertheless everything was coherent and made perfect sense.
      On the other hand, "If only you could write corect in english" should probably be something like "If only you could write English correctly."
