3801 was just toying with the other engines 😂

There's something about steam locomotives that are quite mesmerizing for me. I was watching a ten minutes clip about a vintage train running, fully satisfying. Then my wife asked me: "why are you watching that?". In my mind: "You wouldn't understand". 😍

I actually have the 3801 as a model train myself, it’s my first ever model steam train I got I currently have 2. The other one I have is the City of Lichfield which is a British Steam Train. Which actually speaking of why don’t other countries like Britain, America and Germany bring down some of there’s to compete against some of Australia’s own steam trains. I would love to see that.

Actually heaps of praise should ho to the Hunter Valley coal industry for maintaining 4 lines in such good condition....and for the royalties they pay towards our roads, schools, hospitals etc. Wondering how long it took for the soot to clear from the valley post race. 😜 A great event regardless.

Lovely footage, I was wondering if you recorded the rest of the Great Train Race as well. Would it be okay to use some of the footage of it as well for the Great Train Race segment? With credit as well.
