    Another great spot that, and not far off the beaten track, although tricky to get in to for some.
    I've taken BigKev, who used to be a train driver, up to meet Kevin, who owns all those locomotives, he let us have a good look around. I'll never forget the first time I discovered them, just riding past and there's dozens of steam locomotives sitting in a paddock!!
    Shame they let all the great little train networks die - they've been replacing the lines here with a cycle track (grrrr...)

      Cheers David. Nice part of the world up around Dorrigo. And that railway museum is a bit of a shock when you first see it! Would be great if the line was repaired and tourist runs down to Glenreigh, but will probably never happen. I remember BigKev's videos, and he mentioned being an X train driver. Cheers mate 😎👍

      Oz 91 is your 87. 94 would be your 91. We do get 98 which is the “special stuff”.

    Hi Phil , just let you know, briggsvale railway station was infront of you behind the bushes, the building you refer to as briggsvale railway station is actually someone’s house.
    That track you went down to find the railway line after bobo creek bridge heading towards cascade , can show me where it is on a map? That area could be either brooklana station and the old sawmill sidings

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  Před 6 měsíci

      Ah ok, guess I'm going back..lol Is there anything left of the original station? This pretty well where I rode down to the rail line. www.google.com.au/maps/dir/-30.2350238,152.787438/-30.2337763,152.788442/@-30.234754,152.7867992,16.76z/data=!4m2!4m1!3e0?entry=ttu

    I reckon the train that still runs from the mines near Mudgee to Singleton area would make a fantastic tourist train ride ( through the mountains and follows a river ) Its Coal trains that use it . Tim Fisher was a train man . I’m still loving my Rally , I’m in Wodonga Vic. Can you give me details of the air bed pump you were using mate .

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  Před 6 měsíci +1

      There's a few good train runs that have gone to ruin, hey. I did a video on the bed, tent, air pump. Think it's called camping gear on a budget 👍

    Another great video, was that campsite a free camp?
    Or was it a private campsite? Like Hipcamp or similar

      Ah, thanks Eric 👍 And yep, a Hipcamp. Great way to avoid the crowds. Here's a link to it if you're interested. Cheers mate 👍www.hipcamp.com/en-AU/land/new-south-wales-bandicoot-bend-y0zhozqq?Iterable&adults=1&children=0

    Over here in US and Canada they pull up the old abandoned railroad tracks and develop them into “rail trails” for walking, bicycling and in some cases trail biking. It’s a great effort that has help a lot of people get outdoors for some enjoyable activities.

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  Před 6 měsíci

      Interesting! Definitely a more viable option than restoring a train line 👍
