Ай бұрынRare Intercity V Set on the Richmond Branch Line. Join me on the Richmond branch where I chase V sets V33 and V19 which were used for driver training on the 15th of June and 16th of June respectively. V sets have almost never traversed the Richmond line making this a very rare collection of sightings.
Filmed on the 15th and 16th of June 2024

A nice little video all my years on the railway especially on the branch with steam rail motors diesel electric but never a v set.

The Richmond line has certainly seen a lot of trains come and go in its time, but a V set certainly is unusual to traverse this line. It was very fortunate that I found out about these training runs as it may very well be the last time a V set goes down there before they’re nothing but museum pieces. Thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed it 😊

I've lived in the area for 44 years and I only know of one other time a V-set was here. There used to be a photo in the SM office of the XPT, a K set and a 600 set all lined up at the level crossing. That's the rarest occasion I know of 😀

How awesome! I wonder what brought the XPT out to Riverstone and what happened to the photo 🤔. Thanks for sharing, interesting story about the photo :)

@@coolsoap8 I assume it was taken in 1983 when the XPT did a bunch of demo runs, I was only a toddler then! I also assume the SM took the photos when he retired in the late 90's.

Thanks Class 38’s, it was very strange seeing the V sets out at Richmond. It’s always cool to see V sets on suburban lines and I’m glad to tick this one off my list
