S3 Ep3 - The Belgrave Shuttle. In This Episode, we travel to Upper Ferntree Gully in the Dandenong Ranges, this time attempting to chase Steamrail’s ‘Belgrave Shuttles’ event on foot through the hills and trails. The day featured many challenges throughout the duration, including constant rain, water problems with the K Classes and even a collision, halting all regular and Steamrail services for the reminder of the day. It was quite the adventure and perfect opportunity to present what real problems you can run into when train chasing and how you have to adapt to the conditions. All this and much more coming in this episode of 'Down the Line'.
Thanks for Watching, we really hope you enjoy it!

in the end it was a disused catenary pole that had been left within the loading gauge of the track and hadn't been removed since it was put out of use, the carriage unfortunately just happened to sway in the wrong direction at the wrong time and scrape the pole. Metro have barred anything (with the exception of X'Traps) from going up to Belgrave most likely until they remove it

Which might not happen because management got a report and the cost was too high, or something...

In the days of Steam there were no broad gauge steam trains going up to Belgrave, but my Step Uncle used to go to Upper FTG at 4 am to light the fires of the Narrow Gauge engines (Puffing Billy) when it was the scheduled train in the early Fifties (maybe even earlier). I also remember being at Bayswater Station watching them load D3 666 onto the load loader to take it to the Park in Bayswater. Sadly I live to far from Melbourne (Darwin) these days to visit to watch the Taits and the K's. So thanks for the nostalgia!

"Salvage the rest of the day". The Dandenongs in the rain is at its best. The scenery is well worth the walk not something to be tolerated while getting photos. For me I can also remember taking Puffing Billy along this stretch and I can manage to see it again in my mind.
