- The Trans Australian Railway is one of the most vital freight links in Australia connecting Western Australia with the rest of Australia.

SD70MAC too good
Nice work again Matt! You guys get around..LOL Good panning at 11.30, very nice shot mate.
Cheers Gregg.
The SD-70 Mac's have their work cut out for them. That is a big string of Double Stacks and Containers. Great camera work. Thanks for sharing with us.
What are you referring to as an SD-70 Mac?
Beutiful location for railfanning
Excelente Video.
Why do they have carriages behind the locos
super!
Thanks for the train video it was outstanding. love the beautiful country; it was outstanding on side screen. thanks again. what is the passenger car behind the power unit used for?
Long distances, no towns to change crew. The passenger car has all the comforts of home, so they do it in shifts.
I wonder if they wil one day introduce double decker carriges for the Ghan....or the carriges with the glass dome on top like the ones on the Canadian
What is the run number for The Overland
8.35 is 2 loco’s enough for these trains, they seem a bit challenged, how much hp are we looking at?🇦🇺
Where that shot is taken is one of the steepest grades on the whole line. It's about the only spot they struggle. Beyond there, the track is fairly flat and built well. Sometimes you will see a third unit work on these trains but rarely. The SCT Class pumps out about 4500 horsepower (3355KW). Thanks for watching!
