G'day, thanks for the ride up the line, there must have once been marshaling yards or something because as you come into Violet town station there are rail lines going off to the left into what's now overgrown land, it's a pity the station has gone it was a historic building, also it's a sad place because of the rail accident there in the 60s l can remember it happening, you drive safe don't want you on the news, cheers mate, Neil 🤠.
When the standard gauge was a single line, there was a crossing loop before the station on the left. Now both lines are standard gauge the loop is not needed and is just a siding used for works trains. Glad you enjoyed it 👍 😊
Yes, I will be making another one on the Bronte Park railway. I just need to get the time away from everything else to make it 😀 But it will be coming 👍😊
Managed to catch SCT do loco swap at Benalla the other day, did the vid off the iPhone - Benalla Trains 04-01-2024 - took 5 clips (no this is not about collecting views- just caught a random and an sharing)
Is it just me or do the horns and level crossings for this trip sound like they've been added in separately? I have very accute hearing so it sounds like it to me.
@@therealsammyvee888 two recording devices for that one the sound outside and inside is captured and blended together. Something a little different I was trying. 👍😊
[ x ] Nice trip, nice day! Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome. I am very happy you enjoyed the ride 👍 😀
Benalla a great town
👍😊
Foarte frumos!❤
Very happy to hear you enjoyed it. Thank you 👍😊
Quite a number of crossings still with actual bells rather than e-bells. Nice to hear. :)
The real bells do sound better 👍😊
@@driver667 older electromechanical 'teardrop' types would be better still, but we can be thankful for anything left these days. ;-)
@@emdB67 👍😀

Can you please make another video on the Bronte Park railway?

I miss the old level crossing at Violet Town station
Hmmm... how long ago?...
@@AquaFyrre okay. Wonder if they still have a team like that 🤔

They are the crossings and horns but the sound is recorded outside and inside at the same time. 👍😊
@@driver667 Really? How do you mean?

@@driver667 Ah nice. That's a new idea hey.
@@therealsammyvee888 👍😊
Can anyone explain why the standard gauge velocities are not configured in 6 car sets instead of 2 3 car sets?
All vlocity units are 3 car sets as the maintenance centres are set up for 3 car sets. 👍😊
