Did the train go over the buckled section of the track and if so did it derail?

How did you get permission to go in the cab?

Are you on a VLocity Train.?

Awesome video

Brilliant thanks

Great Video 👍 This is my local branch line

Awesome ride

On the Hurstbridge Line as of 2018, the level crossing at Lower Plenty Road, Rosanna was removed by building an elevated rail bridge with a new elevated Rosanna Station, which also included track duplication between Rosanna and Heidelberg and the level crossing removal at Grange Road, Alphington by lowering the rail line beneath the road into a rail trench. And as of 2023, the Hurstbridge Line Duplication was completed which included around 3 kms of duplicated tracks between Greensborough and Eltham and around 1.5 kms between Diamond Creek and Wattle Glen. Around 4.5 kms of track duplication in total between Greensborough and Hurstbridge. Diamond Creek Station got upgraded and Montmorency and Greensborough Stations got completely rebuilt. Now they are planning to remove the level crossing at Ruthven Street, Macleod by 2027 by building a rail bridge over the road. Also the rail tunnel under Greensborough Highway in Watsonia will be extended a few hundred metres longer by 2028 and there will be a multi-deck car park built at Watsonia Station also by 2028 as part of the North East Link.

i was a driver at Norwood Junction 1966 to 1974 .it would have been nice to have the name of the stations as you pass them.Otherwise a very good film.

Quite a bit of Network Southeast still around then

The first station looks like Epsom Downs.

I worked on the spa valley railway, including the station at Eridge. Continues back up Tunbridge Wells West for the pantiles

:)

This video should be titled Uckfield To Hever

Station

What a miserable station Uckfield is now, with an equally miserable sounding horn. We Brits really know how to sabotage our own railways and trash out Victorian rail legacy! Cutting off Lewes from Uckfield is probably up there among the craziest decisions we made regarding our railways. There is no logic to the decision at all. I want to know which halfwit thought it would make sense and gave the go-ahead? A Tory no doubt?

What’s the station at 25:15

I love the little first class area at the front

I’ve trod that path a good few times.

The days when the AWS used to ring not just ping. But Connex .. oh dear ...

Like the video very much.Take care

Nice train ride, I enjoyed it. Thanks for taking me along.

This is a Class 456 not a 455. You can see it reflected in the platform mirror on departing the first stop.

Bit of a ‘withered arm’ now - how long before it closes down completely

Is this a diesel train on a third rail line? Seems a waste

Brings back memories

Thanks for the video. Very interesting.

Your back!?

Shame those wipers were going when it didnt appear to be raining...

When did the class 33's stop doing this run?

Judging by the oncoming, 421 (4-CIG).

Hard to believe we are this close to London and THIS rural!

So this is what my mainline used to look like without London overground?

Looks pretty awesome. Love how it's all set in the cab of a Vlocity.

loved the video, please do more of these

I love these short videos. I sneak them in at odd times. Thanks!

I was part of the RRL project and learnt how to program it at the time! Special access only. unfortunately. Although V/Line have had family days in the past where Trainees could bring their family along to drive it.

I love cab rides, but it would really increase my enjoyment if they were captioned. I live in the States.

Good video. Interesting color tones.

I enjoyed it very much. Thank you.

Thanks for the bath!

C'est filmé en quelle année ?

Sub back

How come Carshalton Beeches and Waddon were skipped on this service?

How old is this video? It shows West Croydon as a proper train station before it was downgraded to a tube station.
