- A drivers eye view of a trip in a Transperth B series EMU from Butler to Mandurah. Re upload, no music.
The original post of this video had music over the first 10 minutes or so to cover up the noise of rowdy, swearing passengers. I have re edited the sound to cover up the bad language and removed the music. Some edits are pretty good. Others, not so much but at least the (almost) original audio has been restored.
Hope you enjoy the music free version.
I’ve lived in Los Angeles for decades and thought I knew urban sprawl. Until now!
Perth has got to be the most sparsely settled city in the world!
Would be interesting to see comparative numbers.
But the rail network in Perth is impressive. Keep up the good work Perth!
You're quite correct in your statement about Perths lack of density. Perth only has a population of just over 2 million but stretches, in a relatively narrow urban strip, over 80 miles from north to south.
thats true

Thank you for uploading these videos! I love trains and when I'm studying I put this on in the background. The journey through this beautiful city helps me focus. Cheers from Sydney.
Yes they’re so relaxing
Love this! I've been on the train heaps of times, but have never seen through the front window!
The power of the B-series is shown by the acceleration up the hill from Warwick Station. That is a steep hill in railway terms. When they were laying the track back in the day, the DB-Class locomotives (EMD G26C-U's with EMD 16-645 engines) on the ballast trains shook the earth and shattered the peace for miles around when hauling the ballast wagons up the Warwick hills! (This was related to me, but I thought it would be interesting to share anyway :-) I have heard and felt DB's at full power/noise going up the Beela hill to Worseley, and it is awesome!!)
and here is a video of a DB climbing that grade czcams.com/video/EEfTo1ZXwO8/video.html
@@qfa330 Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Currambine was the old termini's back when I was living in Perth
the "Joondalup line" is the ONLY train line in Australia that is not called by it's LAST station ("The Butler train line")
There also used to be a small Railcar Depot to store a few A series sets I'd say something similar to the Mandurah depot as Claisebrook is were they are properly maintained fun fact my dad helped build The Nowergup Railcar Depot and he also did some work at Perth underground when they were building it as part of the Mandurah line Project
I think that it's only joe Public that calls it the Joondalup Line. Transperth's recorded voice announcements called it the Currambine Line, then the Clarkson Line and now the Butler Line (and soon, the Yanchep Line).
But yes, when the line was being built, Joondalup was also pretty new and very trendy, so the name definitely stuck! (even now being in Joondalup is like being in a different country compared to Perth! And the line went up the middle of the Freeway, and that was just the ant's pants. All jokes aside, though, it was without question a revolutionary step change in commuter train travel in Perth. The other lines were seriously in need of love and care (which has been provided; credit where it's due) and 1950's diesel trains had only just been retired!
@@cameronbrown7925 suburbs may revolve over time (Subiaco case in point where in the mid 90s was relaxed area(so missed the old subi markets) but now it is a bumbling commercial district, Joondalup is no different it has only evolved no longer been the top end'ish.
Sydney is a differant country(US) than the other Australian city's (UK) (I almost been all around)
I think there are several possible reasons for the Joondalup line being named as such:
Joondalup is the “main attraction” on the line - the intended “satellite city” that the line was meant to connect Perth with
Joondalup was the original terminus when it opened, so they called it the Joondalup line then
Because they called it the Joondalup line, they haven’t renamed it after extending it, because the rename would cause confusion. Furthermore, the name would change every 10 years as a new extension opened, causing even more confusion than a one-off
@@basketcase6999 you'll find it is been lazy, When it opened there was Currambine beyond Joondalup, it would have been more simpler like some other lines around Australia by naming it by AREA such as north coast line (Sun shine coast line/gold coast line in Brisbane) soon Joondalup will be the stop half way. they did not have for-sight of expansion, Joondalup is no more Morley to Ellenbrook/Midland & Cannington is to Armadale
Great one best seat in the house. 👍
Do you have a video of the other way, Mandurah to Butler real time, as I'd to see a close up of the Glen Iris tunnel that'll be used for the Thornlie to Cockburn link. Thanks :)
Check this one out. The music free version is coming out soon.

Hello!
I am from Mandurah and absolutely love trains! I would honour the fact if I ever got a chance to be in the cabin or even drive the train! If you could maybe help me get a go or look in the front, that would be b-brilliant.
Thanks
There's a certain spot on the line, southbound just leaving Elizabeth Quay and northbound just getting near, where the train seemingly loses power every time (from my experience also). What causes it?
It's a neutral section. Parts of the overhead power supply need to be electrically separate from one another for various reasons. eg power supply faults, damage to the equipment etc. When the train passes through one of these neutral sections it loses power momentarily because the section is not supplied with any electrical energy.
@@BennettBrookRailway Not only is the neutral section there for this reason, but also because, the power for the overhead lines is generated in 3 phases, but each overhead electrical section is only connected to one phase. The neutral section is also a switch in the connected phase, so that, across the entire network at any point in time, the amount of power being drawn on each phase is relatively balanced.
@@BennettBrookRailwaywarnbro is my cousin house
@@BennettBrookRailway oh is that why sometimes the air con just cuts off and then starts after a few seconds i was wondering what is was. thanks. because every time i get on a rainsperth trains there is certain spots where it just completely stops then starts again.
Do you have the video of trip between Perth to Butler? I used to commute regularly between Perth or Joondalup to Currambine (itself was the terminus, and on the old site)
Not yet, but I hope to post a Mandurah to Butler full trip soon, which will include the route you described.
Sound of perth under ground,
Warwick, elizabeth quay
Ah yes please do a transwa prospector service
A timelapes would be cool but imagine a 6 hour video
Or the full Indian Pacific route (which of course pretty much includes the prospector route, just a different train).
I'm serious. It's a worldwide-famous route, yet there is close to zero cab view coverage of it out there beyond the parts in Perth and Sydney areas. It would need breaking into several sections (Perth-Kalgoorlie could be one), and it would need to maintain a presentable picture after dark, but none of that should be a big ask these days. Camera battery-life is possibly the bigger headache.
Also, @NSW Rail Vlogs, look at the cab rides recently posted from Norway for example, those are closer to 10 hours, good picture and proper audio, no commentary and no messing about, just camera pointing forwards, and they're certainly not low on view counts... (at least one of them has more than a million views).
I realise the driver who films the Transperth routes won't drive those kinds of trains, but maybe has access to contacts.
Awsome video...can u please tell me does transperth trains run from perth to aldelaide or brisband
Transperth is a suburban rail operator for Perth. It runs no interstate services
Perth is on the opposite side of Australia away from those cities
I caught the train from warick stn to Perth underground stn and back to warnbro stn and to baldivis
Must be time for an updated version ? 😄
Planning for one within the next month and a half.
Do you know what date/time this was filmed? I think I saw myself on the platform at Joondalup lmao
Sorry, no idea when it was filmed.
@@BennettBrookRailway so this is where you are implicitly invited to give some context to your video. Perhaps you might like to give a rough time, for example month and year, and perhaps allude to the source of your video.
I believe that my answer to the context of the video was addressed in my initial reply. I was not informed as to a specific date or time this was recorded. As to the source, I was asked not to divulge that information.
I know this is old but for anyone else wondering, somewhere around 4:00pm judging by shadows and traffic
👍👍👍👍
I should make a thimbnail for each of your full trips like how i did it for the buses. Would you like to?
I appreciate the offer but I will stick with screen grabs for now. Thanks anyway.
@@BennettBrookRailway w
Is it me, or does the PA Announcement say Butler to Perth ?
It does. The announcement for the Perth to Mandurah section is at 38:47.
@@BennettBrookRailway I am referring to 0:00 Where the caption shows "Butler" at the start of the video, the PA says "Butler to Perth".
@@ChannelReuploads9451 Yes, it does say Butler to Perth.
@@ChannelReuploads9451 Butler to Perth is Joondalup line and Perth to Mandurah is Mandurah line
@@NeurodogNVR Yeah I get that, I lived in Perth for like 15 years, I moved for the Eastern States just as the like was run out to Joondalup, Didn't know it is that far north.
Seems like it is knocking on Yanchep's door.
How fast are these trains, they seem to overtake car's at speed
Top speed of the trains is 130kph or 80mph.
They were specifically designed to do so - one of the key requirements when building the Joondalup and Mandurah lines was to be competitive with cars in terms of speed. They have to be fast enough to overtake cars in order to make up for the time stopped at stations, etc.
I like watching the cars
4:57 clarkson station be like it
52:29😊
Next year get the train from warnbro stn into Perth underground stn in Murray Street mall and down to glendalough stn and up to hutton st Osborne park near perth hobby centre in perth western Australia Australia
What speed are you meant to go into stations?
I couldn't tell you that. I'm not a driver. I just post these videos, I don't record them.
Bennett Brook Railway Who records them?
@@train_guy One of the train drivers.
4:57 clarkson station be like
The w.a government should do a express service to dongara and Geraldton on to Carnarvon on to Port Hedland and Broome and to Katherine and onto the ghan railway network
Mate that would be so cool. They probably could end up doing that, they need like 1 more track so it can pass through station if a train is already there
Can you do Perth to Cockburn station shunt
Mandurah train version
Maybe next year go get trains to glendalough stn and to warrick interchange station and bus to carine glades shopping centre and warrick grove shopping centre in early June to mid august next year
52:29 murdoch station to murdoch university be like
can you please do video from mandurah to butler
Sure. I shall ask the person who sends me these to film a trip.
Oh, I want to see that too, thanks :)

Two things struck me about this video- #1 is how boring the landscape is, and the second is how much most of the stations look alike.
It's not a scenic tourist train ffs .it's a city metro 🤦♂️
