Hello, I'm Alex and welcome to my channel :)
As you can probably tell I love Trains, and on my channel you will see all of the videos of Trains that I record on my travels.
I live in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia and my videos will often include the V/Line trains on the Bairnsdale line. I also travel down every few weeks to Morwell where I am able to record the Qube Maryvale Paper Mill Train.
I also record heritage specials that travel on the Bairnsdale line, including the annual Steamrail Snow Train specials.
You will also see that I include videos from Melbourne and interstate Australia as I travel around. Some of the trips I have been on this year are the Overland to Adelaide, South Australia, and a trip to Townsville, Queensland. I also travel to the Illawarra and South Coast of NSW every year so expect some videos from these locations as well!
Please subscribe to my channel to see all of my videos! And thanks for checking out my channel :)

Sydney trains V set walkthrough
zhlédnutí 311Před 4 měsíci
One of the most well known train sets in the Sydney trains fleet, the V set! They are also the second oldest train set type still in service in Sydney. V sets are part of the interurban fleet, running long distance trips on the electric network. These trips are Sydney to Newcastle interchange, return, and Sydney to Lithgow, return. I find these trains the most comfortable to travel on, making t...

Very marvellous video indeed! I especially love all the 6 car vlocity services!
Nice shot
What about that tank engine
One of the many restoration projects I assume.
what is happening with 3820 ??
I presume a long term restoration project
Does this mean it will return to service
Maybe, we are all waiting and hoping this is the case!
@@darrenswan600 Highly unlikely, when it was taken out of service it never received a full overhaul, meaning it is one of the best originally preserved NSW engines.
I need to visit Thirlmere, never been before so thanks for your tour. Taylor Rail doing some track work and nice back drop,
It's interesting having been to the national rail museum in adelaide, rail workshops museum in ipswich and now thirlmere again. They all have some similarities and differences. Thirlmere is mostly a look around at static exhibitis, with a little bit of an explainer on the rail history of the state. And although I didn't film it in the video, you can go up to the roundhouse at the back and see maintenance/restoration underway, which is usually carried out away from the public eye in other museums. It also has train rides up to buxton and back. Unfortunately they weren't running on the day I went but Thirlmere is definitely the only 'big' train museum in the country that offers that experience.
The middle unit has a floppy roof
The main rail guage is 3 foot 6 inch guage
That train is pretty fast
I've been there and it's pretty cool though was always curious on who the boiler was intended for.
garp innit!
Nice work mate
Home of the mighty 57 Class ... but the only one left is at Valley Heights museum
I Want To Use These Model Locomotives in Australia 4:24
question: is Hitachi carriage 296M still at the Bendigo workshops?
one of the best videos ive ever layed eyes on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
did you get some sleep dueing the night
Yes we did. We stopped in Junee due to a signal failure for a few hours which helped. I found the xpt pretty good for sleeping.
3ft 6 and a half
Vset my favourite train but I’m sad isn’t gonna get retired
It will be sad to see them go, but I am excited to ride on the mariyung sets when they are in service.
Video 15 in my second playlist ''about transportation'' has a vid of the depot for YHT we have here, for those interested. :)
nice one
Thanks!
i noticed not all seats have a handle on them. why is that? are all seats reversible?
Well spotted, not all of the seats are reversible.
@@AlexsTrainChannelall are exept onces facing walls
i actually volunteer my weekend at the railway so i can say this, thank you for visiting our railway! i appreciate the time and the excellent video you have made thank you for supporting the local business and i hope you would like to come again!
No problem at all Leo! We have been very excited to see some of the developments that have been taking place over the last few years thanks to the efforts of volunteers like yourself!
Are these the only originals still rolling? And I noticed the second one had a slightly different design.
No, there are heaps of T classes still around. Some still in use on freight! And yes, you are correct, some of them are different designs. There are at least three T class design variations. There are the series one 'flat top', the series 2 which has a very slight hood above the drivers cab, and the series 3 onwards which has a high hood and full windshield.
great video of various workings around Wollongong /Kiama that you don't get to see everyday.
Thanks, port kembla is always good for rail action.
Good one, cheers.
Where were the two stations ?
The first station was Queenbeyan, and the second was Canberra.
Good stuff, thanks for sharing. Cheers.
No worries, glad you enjoyed 👍
Good work guys all the best great video love ya work hopefully see you at the steam rail open day cheers
If I were those birds, I'd ride it 😂
nice
Wait...why are Metro's rooms named after Chinese cities?
That was an interesting insight from the open day. I didn't bother to ask why on the day, maybe for the next one I will see.
@@AlexsTrainChannel - Yeah I mean one could be a one-off to commemorate some single event in railway history or a sponsorship or a sister city arrangement or something, but two is a lot more than a coincidence 😲
10:43 Snowtown is a tiny place
This museum is in dire need of a facelift. The artifacts are stale and there's little to zero variety. If you went once a year every year, nothing would change.
Interesting footage! What quad copter did you use Alex?
I don't know why you suggest booking tickets for events that are the next day. You should be posting these a month in advance.
Probably the only part of the V/Line network where you can see both trains and the ocean.
Yeah, Warrnambool and Geelong would be the only two places. Does stony point count as the vline network? You can see the ocean at the end of the line there as well.
excellent footate - which drone do you use?
Thanks Shelton. I have a Dji Air2s
Great and epic capture of the zig zag railway steam locomotive or steam train (There the same thing) and also we're your new subscribers!!🎉
Thank you very much 😀
Excellent coverage
Thank you! I had a lot of good fun seeing these trains in 2023.
The sprinter is what Special Agent Fox Mulder calls the "doodlebug." Nice video!
Great video! Thanks for featuring our railway!
No worries! I hope your 2023 was excellent and I am hoping to visit you in 2024 🤞
Nice P5 horn
It does sound good since they replaced the horn
I didn’t know there were Aurizon grain trains in nsw
There certainly are. One of Aurizon key plans for the future of their business is to take on more bulk freight, like grain, as they will move away from coal. They run in the hunter valley, and late in 2022 they started operating in southern nsw, around cootmaundra/junee.
3 foot 6 inches
Good one, that'd be a top trip. Thanks for sharing.
One of the best in the world. And depending on where you are in Australia, its the same flight distance as perth 😅
I watch all your uploads - but the NZ ones are the most special of all. Well done. Keep Up The Good Work. Best Wishes from Uk and here is my engagement gift to the CZcams algo God. You deserve it.
CZcams never ceases to amaze me. Here I am, an Australian, making a video on New Zealand trains, replying to a comment from someone in the UK. My humble thanks for your support and comment! I hope to visit the UK again someday soon. Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year for 2024.
B74 looks about right on with the colouring!
Excellent collection, wouldn't it be magic to see them running down there again. Thanks for sharing, best wishes.
They are getting closer every day to returning trains to the tracks! I look forward to that day as it is a beautiful part of the country and would make a very scenic ride.
My closest operating railway. 🤏
Train rides are a little bit off just yet, but they are making very good progress!
Hi Lachlan Valley railway society is doing last steam train ride with 3237 on Saturday November 18, Sunday 19
Thanks for the heads up James. This trip may have been announced after this video was produced, as I make these videos well in advance.
