Hudson & Streamliner South West Sprint | Steamrail - Warrnambool Westcoa...


Welcome all,
First flexible upload in a while. Today's video focuses on Steamrail Victoria's Warrnambool Westcoaster that was operated yesterday. It was only a partial chase of the tour.
This tour also marks the beginning of 18 months that steam train operations are to be halted to Warrnambool as upgrade works on the yard are completed to prepare for the eventual use of VLocity trains. This tour use West Coast Railway veteran R711 and streamliner S313.
Well, until next week, cheers all!

Sunbury Model Railway Exhibition 2023 | Sunbury Model Railway Club

Howdy all,
Welcome back for another week. We are finally back to our weekly scheduling, so for our one an only video this week, we have our coverage of the Sunbury Model Railway Exhibition. Like our Ballarat video, this is one of the smaller exhibitions we have visited, especially since we only captured the layouts this time. For once however we were able to complete a fully coverage video, which means all 8 of the operational layouts are featured in the video.
Anyways, that should be it for the exhibitions for this year, so until next time catch you all.
We do have a few more model railway videos planned for the year, whether or not that come out as planned are yet to be seen, however if you would like to get your model railway fix, come checkout or dedicated channel. Main difference is we primerily feature Japanese N gauge and British OO on that channel, but yeah.
Cheers.

Top & Tail Steam & Diesel Heritage Train Shuttles | Transport Heritage E...

Welcome back!
Time for to for another weeks video and we continue our coverage on the NSW Transport Heritage Expo for 2023. 
This video is a train chase video, doing what we usually do best in Victoria. Initially this video was supposed to cover everything else that there was to see at the expo, but the length was getting rather long for my liking, so those will be added as part of a future video on our other channel.
Was definitely a challenge doing train vs train chasing, while being unfamiliar with the network. I would like to give it another go in the future, but we shall see what that'll happen.
Sit back and enjoy the video!
Cheers, catch you all later this week for our second video of Steamrail's The Gipplander.

Howdy all,
Been a while since we've posted here, but now that we are resuming social media operations, lets go!
For the next two weeks, we are having extra videos published as during out two break weekends, the videos made were extra duration videos. This video is the first of two parts overlooking the events of Steamrail Victoria's The Gippslander. Instead of having the parts in order of recording, we begin with the most historic, being the return of steam to Bairnsdale.
This video contains the trainsfer to Bairnsdale and the steam shuttles that were ran throughout the day.
Next week we will have the second parts of both this and the NSW Transport Heritage Expo.
Until next time, cheerio.
