It was intended for three videos this week, but due to restricted time, the extra video has been pushed to next week, to allow the video of day two's operations to be uploaded.
Anyways, all the best, catch you all again very soon!

First Day of Trains at the New Lilydale Station - Melbourne Trains

Been a little while since anything was posted here since most new videos have been scheduled uploads instead of being uploaded at the time of publishing.
Anyways, we are back with the Friday extra videos for 4 weeks.
Today's video takes us to the new Lilydale Station that opened on Friday the 19th of November.
The station was rebuilt due to the LXRA Project that was removing the adjacent level crossing on the Maroondah Highway.
With the video, expect a video twice a week on Mondays and Fridays until the week including Christmas, where the schedule will be adjusted to better accommodate the specials.
Till next time, catch you all!.

Metro Trains at Paddington Rd Pedestrian Crossing, Hughesdale

G'day, we're back with another video, so here we go.
This time we are at a little location on the Pakenham and Cranbourne line. Located in the suburb of Hughesdale, a little pedestrian crossing allows people to get from on side of the railway to the other, something which is a little rare on this end of the line, as most would be overpasses or underpasses with the Skyrail.

Anyways, hope you guys enjoy, this wasn't fully the intended video for this week, however with a delay in receiving a package, this had to take it's place. Till next time, stay safe.
