Geelong Model Railway Exhibition 2024 | Corio Model Railway Club

Well, back for our final full week of the holiday schedule, and we return with another exhibition video.
We return to the Corio Model Railway Club's annual exhibition, this year being held at the Geelong West Town Hall. The video is a comprehensive coverage video, where we look at all of the operational layouts on display, except the U-Drive. 9 layouts were captured, so this video was uploaded as a single part, like our Ballarat and Sunbury Exhibition coverage last year. Pretty decent layouts on show this year, however we are hitting a point that there are a lot of duplicates from other videos.
Anyways, cheers all. Hope every one enjoys. Our next few videos will be back to 1:1 scale. Next exhibition won't be until March, so till then, stay well.

Final Day of Trains at Keon Park Station - Pre-LXRA

Howdy all,
Time for this weeks video.
This time, we are back to suburban Melbourne for a Metro video, where with the continuing of the LXRA projects, another station has been closed for rebuilding. Keon Park is located on the Mernda line, and will be reopened in September once the new elevated station is completed.
This video takes a look of some of the last trains through the station just before the evening peak.
We have another video due later this week and then the schedule is going to be ruined this weekend, so lets see how that pans out. A post will be made on Facebook speaking about that.
Until then, catch everyone soon.

A Magical Steam Trip | Steamrail Charter - ANA's Wizardry Express | Push...

We're back for another extra. This time we turn back the time to April where there were two days of shuttles to Sunshine for AMA's Wizardry Express Charter. Initially, I was only planning one day being the Saturday, however I was still in recovery mode after being on anesthetic, but was feeling better by the afternoon, so still made it out for at least part of it. After the few shots captured on the Saturday, we time leap into the next day where we complete the full day, capturing the special at various stations along the short section to Sunshine, that we didn't complete the day prior. 
Anyways, next weeks videos will be some recent videos as we resume filming, so until then, cheers all.

Freight Train Rescue - Pacific National's Late UP Tocumwal Container Ser...

Howdy all,
Time for our first video for 2024. For this, we turn back out clocks to almost two years ago. On the 15th, we had travelled up to Seymour to capture the first of the N sets to be retired. On the way back, we had heard that the UP Tocumwal had failed and stabled in Seymour loop, awaiting rescue. After capturing the rescue engine arrive, we waited out, where fate would have it, a rare daylight run of the service all the way into Melbourne.
Anyways, hope everyone enjoys. On Thursday, we will have our channel update for 2024, however this will not take effect until the end of the holiday season, where there's also a video due on Friday.
Cheers all.
