Easter Model Railway Exhibition 2024 - Diamond Creek - Part 1 | Yarra Va...

Howdy all,

Time for this weeks video, which is now just over a week behind it's recording date. Anyways, today we have our coverage of the Yarra Valley Model Railway Club's Easter Model Railway Exhibition at the Diamond Creek Bank Stadium.  This is part one over looking mostly the operations in the main hall. The exhibition is back bigger than ever, being host to 63 stalls and spanning over two rooms.

Hope everyone enjoys. Part two is due later this week, then we have no videos for a week. From tomorrow social media will be on break, so this'll be the last post here for a while.

Cheers all, catch everyone on the other side.

Steam Thunders to an Easter Festival | Steamrail - Bendigo Easter Festiv...

G'day,

Back to another heritage train video in the mist of all our exhibition coverage videos.

Today we start out coverage of the events over the Easter long weekend.

This video we capture Steamrail Victoria's Bendigo Easter Festival special, something that is becoming an annual occurrence by now. Being headed by R711, made this tour the first for the 2024 Victorian steam season. Along for the trip as well, we had new acquisition S301 on a load test.

Anyways, back to model railways for the next two videos, then we can finally take a little break from this rather intensive 4-day uploading schedule.

Cheers.

Sandown's Model Railway Exhibition - Train & Hobby Show 2024 | Part 2

G'day all,

Time for our next video. We complete our model railway coverage of the Sandown Train and Hobby Show for 2024 in this video. The video already being rather long meant that all of the extra hobby stuff has missed out the video, however we are planning to upload an extras video on the Vlogs channel in the near future for anyone that wants to see the other things that were on offer, although it is a short walkaround video.

Next video due this Friday.

Cheers all.

Sandown's Model Railway Exhibition - Sandown Train & Hobby Show 2024 | P...

G'day, Were back for another round of videos.

Today we have our first part covering this year's Sandown Train and Hobby Show. The show is gradually getting better, although it is one of the more expensive shows around. The exhibition is held over three rooms, however railways only populates the main ground floor. The rest are other various hobbies.

This year the exhibition was held back one weekend, so instead of the usual three day show, it was only two days. 

Anyways, hope everyone still enjoys, next part is due out next week on the 1st of April, and so it isn't confused with the timings, will be uploaded around noon.

Cheers all.

Steamrail - Newport Workshops Open Weekend 2024 | Part 2 - Photo Line-up...

Well, back for another video. This video completes our coverage of Steamrail Victoria's Newport Workshops Open Weekend. This part we complete the walkthrough of the rest of the event and see the two photo line-ups that occurred during day two.

Although the two two-parters are done, we still have another video to be uploaded, this being our coverage of this year's Sandown Toy and Hobby Show. Although I would like to keep the 4-day uploads, it's starting to take it's toll, so we're going to hold it back by an extra day, they follow onwards with 4-days between parts.

Until then, stay well. Catch everyone very soon.

Howdy all,

We're back to a minor schedule as we have our second video for the month's quota. Today's video is the first of two to cover the Newport Workshops Open Weekend, that was held over the Labour Day Long Weekend. The bi-annual event once again brought out most all of Steamrail's operational fleet, and the opportunity to take a look behind the scenes to the effort it takes to keep the old giants in operation.

Anyways, we'll be back in four days with part two of the model railway exhibition then following that the second part of this.

Cheers all, stay tuned.
