Really nice scenery along the way. I remember going on the Inglewood-Dunolly branch in 2019 and there were idiotic motorists at 3 of the passive level crossings, so the driver blew the horn at them. They need to install boom gates at level crossings to improve safety.

G'day, l ride classic motorcycles and our club is called Bendigo Historical Motorcycle club and our club rooms are the old Llanally School/Church and everytime a Train gos past and sees all the old bikes and riders the horn goes loud and long, the old town of Llanally had a population of 1000 when it was a gold town like Inglewood, cheers mate, Neil 🤠

I'm sure that the trains will still make plenty of noise when they go past. Glad you enjoyed it 👍 😊

3:51 I was at the edge of my seat with the Kangaroo as he show no intentions in stopping.

[@driver667]

Thankfully he made it across. Pheewww. 😀 👍

Been a few years now but I can’t see where the line diverted towards Eaglehawk.

[@driver667]

@@darylcheshire1618 I didn't put a reference to it (missed that one) but as the line turns to the right out of the platform, the Eaglehawk line ran straight ahead. The line can be seen on a slight embankment as the train curves away. 👍😀

I thought that kangaroo was a goner for sure!

[@driver667]

He was a lucky bugger 😀👍

Those Kangaroos just will not keep off the tracks......🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘

[@driver667]

I wish they would learn to stay off the tracks 😀👍

[@noelroberts8199]

It looks like track workers have left a lot of old track plates in the middle of the track in this section of track. It also looks like they are rebuilding alot of that line as well. Do they ever recycle any of that old rail left on the side or does it just stay there forever?...🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤

[@driver667]

Some sections have rail that has been there a long time but other sections are recycled. 👍🙂
