- NSW Suburban electrics (as well as some bonus non-electric stock) at various locations around Sydney. Possibly part 1 of 2?.
Locations include:
Burwood,
Beecroft Bank,
Croydon,
Newtown,
Pennant Hills Cutting,
and Rose Hill
Keep them coming - great videos - just how it was back in the day.
Ahh, the good old days when trains were timetabled to run at normal speed, and even a DEB set thrown in.. gold!
#$#n BEAUTIFUL piece of work there mate. Time machine stuff.
Wow… is all I can say. Absolutely GREAT footage, Allan! Oh some great memories from this footage. Will watch on repeat 👍🏻
Fantastic video mate, great variety of the NSW trains from the old days
I think you captured literally everything in this video! Even a 10-car V set. (27:51)
I miss those times back when there was classic traction. Now it's pretty much wall-to-wall Waratah Sets on 75% of the suburban network the other 25% being Tangaras and K Sets
I really enjoyed the video good sound too.
Very rare footage of the former Sandown line. All gone now. Great video.
Much like The Carlingford line itself as a heavy rail route sadly.
Burwood: 0:00
Croydon 33:30
Asquith 40:30
pennant Hills: 46:00
Newtown: 47:00

Harris Park: 52:00
Carlingford Line:53:30
Nice opening, Burwood without the highrise but what is the deal with all the station skipping?
What a magnificent record of a different time. The sights and sounds of trains at these locations took me back to those days of train travel that was fun and seemed a lot busier then. Found this by accident, thankful I did!
Crazy to see that Newtown tram depot looked so run down even 30 years ago. Massive mistake to move to an entirely double deck fleet, we should have kept a mix and we should have been building more infra to remove bottlenecks, even back then it was clear where we were headed.
17:27 ... Is that 10-car V Set? Wow! would it have been a transfer, or normal service. Never heard of such a thing!
EDIT: And another at 50:18!
back in the 80s some peak services to gosford/wyong newcastle were run by 10 car double decks they mainly only ran to and from gosford then divided/amalgamated there and 6 cars continued onto wyong/newcastle
@@knightman1970 Awesome! Thanks for the info. Never knew about these services, then in a single day I see this, and see a fairly long thread on a rail page about 10 car V Sets ... spooky. ;)
