    Hi Barrie 👋 I think it's inspiring to see so many young people with their cameras and capturing this train from so many points along the way. I like to see them because it makes me appreciate more what was once a regular and only way to ride the Sydney System to school and work. Excellent presentation Barrie, well done 👏 👍

      Like yourself, I love to support the next generation of rail enthusiasts, much has changed since I was doing it as a young guy but I still see the passion and excitement there in the younger guys/gals.

    Wow, changed so much from 50 years ago. The old familiar whine of the Traction Motors hasn't changed but.

    Must have been a hot day for you Barrie as I noticed some WOLO boards out. Sorry mate, didn't last past Sydenham due to all the background noise, I like to enjoy the rattles and sound of the traction motors. I see the terrace house at 14:07 on the left is still there, used to be a woman who sun baked topless in the backyard there in early 1980's, she didn't care about the freight train crews looking down into the yard! Leading car should have been a designated "Quiet Carriage"...😆

      Hi Dave. The sound of the video annoyed me as well, unfortunately that was the best recording option on such a busy tour. Yeah it was very hot, there was decent air flow in the cab though. Thanks for watching what you were able too

      @@trainspottingwithbarrie Air conditioning unheard of when they were built for the suburban system, people are too soft these days.
