Note: This was filmed in January of 2021 hence why I sound so young.

Nice video NRTV’s. Most detail of any I’ve ever seen on the XPT. Good catch as it will soon be history.

[@northernriverstransportvlogs]

Thanks mate. I am so glad I got it and indeed it will be history unfortunately.

Hi NRTV. I remember this and I found it just as interesting today. I also remember seeing a mock up of the XPT carriage at the old Sydney Easter Show in Moore Park a couple of years before the XPT was introduced in NSW. My first ride was on the Central West XPT from Sydney Central to Dubbo soon after they were introduced.

Hello John. I decided to change it up with an old video. I love that easter show, I remember seeing a model at a Mini Railway (hint on one of the new videos coming). I can imagine the excitement of it arriving. You did see my first ride/tour today. Good fun. Search up the Casino Mini Rail and go onto their facebook page (you don't need an account to see it) and tell me your thoughts.

@@northernriverstransportvlogs Hi NRTV. I tried what you said but it asked me to join and the only pics I could see was from the old carriage being worked on.

I my self have been in an Xpt cab at Dungog station and I’ve gotta say it’s really great in there!

[@northernriverstransportvlogs]

I agree.

[@richardperry5538]

I know these are similar to the UK HSTs 125s but I didn't expect to see a drivers keys which looks identical to ours in the UK which we use on all traction.

[@northernriverstransportvlogs]

They are very similar in design and with design they have to make a fitting cab and then a fitting mechanical system.

Cool video. Is that a traction motor blower @ 6:43 ?

[@northernriverstransportvlogs]

It is an air compressor I am pretty sure.

[@crazenby1]

[@northernriverstransportvlogs]
