Steam Sprint Down the RRL | Steamrail - Eureka Express - July 2025 | R71...

Howdy,
And we're back for another week. This video was a bid more impromptu, as it wasn't planned there was going to be enough footage for a full video. But as the weather decided to hold off a little on the Melbourne side, it was still chosen to take a look.
R711 has returned to service after a mechanical incident halted the previous Eureka Express. This time the train was assisted by streamliner A66, to boost power and extra loading who came from the previous Eureka.
Unlike the previous runs, the train saw itself running via the RRL due to track-works.
Anyways, cheers all. Next month, exhibition videos will be resuming, adding a bit more certainly to the scheduling,  so be sure to stay tuned.

Maroon Steam Rattlers the Dandenongs | Steamrail - Ringwood Steam & Tait...

Howdy,
Today we continue with our heritage coverage. Last weekend, Steamrail Victoria returned up to the Dandenong Ranges, with locomotive K190 and the Taits.
We spend the whole day up the ranges, with the intention of fixing a couple of clips from last year now that we had a new camera.
Anyways, just a little shorter than our last few videos, but here we are.
No model rail video are planned until next month at this stage, so stay tuned.

Winter Steam Light Up the Dandenongs | Puffing Billy Railway - Train of ...

G'day,
Time for our flexible schedule to be back in place temporarily.
With only another three day's of this year's season, here's our vision of the 2025 Train of Lights. We headed out during the first week this year so means this is ready to go earlier rather than later.
This'll be our only full video on the event this year.
Anyways, it's all pretty standard, still an experience to behold, while the tickets are ever harder to acquire. 
With that, cheers all. We'll catch you next time.

A2 Blasts to Castlemaine | Steamrail - Vintage Train to Castlemaine - JU...

Welcome! 
Today are back with this weeks video. We head out for the first Vintage Train for 2025, this being to Castlemaine. We got a rather nice surprise of A2986 taking charge of the train instead of R761. 
This had been planned as a train on train chase, so the video is a little like our first Vintage Train video.

Anyways, we've got another video for this week, subject to us completing the editing, so catch everyone later.

Two-Car Comeng on Transfer - Metro ECOM Project | Westall - Newport Tran...

Hello,
Well, we are currently back to our weekly scheduling for now, but this a little compilation from some recent special moves.
Over the last two months, Metro ran a two-car Comeng unit, as part of an upcoming project.
Two units were done up like this, and after the modifications were completed, they are hooked up together an run to Newport for further testing.

Not a regular sight that we upload non-heritage videos, so hope everyone enjoys.
Cheers all, should be back to regular shortly.
