Opening a Victorian Railways DERM from IDR Models

G'day everyone.
Today we have the first video as part of our holiday schedule, where to start us off this season, we take a look at the recently released IDR Models Victorian Railways DERM.
This captures the preserved DERM RM58.

This year, the holiday season has been broken into 4 sections. Section 1 will run until the 19th of December, so until then, enjoy our regular Monday and Friday uploads.

Well, until next time, catch you all down the line.

Mernda to Reservoir Steam Shuttles | Steamrail - Mernda Suburban Shuttle...


Howdy all,
We're back for another week. Actually, this time, it's the first of two videos for the week as we have now entered our holiday uploading season. This is phase one of the season, and will run until the 19th of December.
Anyways, today we head back onto the Mernda line to capture Steamrail Victoria's Mernda Suburban Shuttles with K class locomotives K100 and K190.
Overall turned out a rather decent day despite the weather warnings, with the main issue being how windy it was during the latter part of the train.
Anyways, hope you all enjoy and well catch you at our next upload.

Geared Steam Trundle | Climax Twilight Train Special - Paradise Hotel Di...

Howdy everyone.
Back for another week, today we are back at Puffing Billy to capture the rather popular Climax locomotive on her annual run.

This year the trip was slightly different, with Climax beginning from Belgrave and only travelling as far as Clematis. Here the locomotive used the rarely use turn-back siding as passengers had dinner at the nearby Paradise Hotel.
We only capture one way for this trip, since by the return, there wouldn't be any light, and I had to rush down to Port Melbourne for another event.

Our holiday schedule will be returning soon, so stay tuned for more!
