More new Series 2 Waratah B Sets On The Way!


Hi everyone!

I hope everyone is staying safe during these crazy times.

A friend sent me some interesting photo’s of the first of the second batch of Series 2 Waratah B Sets at the CRRC ChangChun Railway Vehicles Company in China.

We will be getting 17 new sets which will be numbered B25 through to B41.

These photo’s mainly show B25 however in one photo we see another set in the background which at a guess is B26.







Here are some interior photo’s.

By the looks of things we will see the first of the new sets in Australia ready for testing in the coming weeks.

Thank you for reading.

Sydney Trains Vlogs: Waratah A42 Returns to Servie



Hi all.
Waratah set A42 which was damaged as a result of hitting the buffers at Richmond station Platform 2 in January 2018 has returned to service.
It returned to service in late March 2019.

D6342 being the carriage that hit the buffers is still at Cardiff.
PPTV carriage D6379 is replacing D6342 for the time being.

This set has all new gangways as most of the old ones were damaged in the accident.

In the photo above we see A42 at Central as it leaves Platform 17 for a City Circle service with D6379 being the closest car to the camera.

Below is a couple of showing A42 at Richmond on the day of the accident.

An hour at Dulwich Hill

An Hour At Dulwich Hill:

On Monday 9th November 2015 right after seeing The '01 Trio at Erskineville i travelled to Lakemba on the Bankstown line to film a few trains there.. After that i went to Dulwich Hill and stayed there filming for about an hour.
Within that hour i filmed and photographed a variety of trains such as Waratahs, M Sets, K Sets, C Sets, S Sets and even a couple of freight trains.
In this Blog i thought id share a couple of todays photos :)
