Despite their age, the bulldog nosed locomotives such as the S and B classes are still going strong in 2021 and will continue to do so

Yeah either that or a Marlboro; I can't work it out. I can almost hear John Meillon - "Matter of fact!... I got it Nowwwwwwwwww" ........... What the hell I'll have both - which is saying something since I don't drink or smoke.

Locomotives had such character back then and made noise. Nowadays they are silent shoe boxes!

Love watching these old videos, the v/line locos bring back memories of seeing grain trains go through Yarrawonga and Tungamah when I was little. Be nice to see footage of trains on the Cobram line. The only footage I can find is on trainz railway simulator. Dookie line would be good too.

Another value video, thank you very much John. I see B65 has lost its cast iron side plates "B65" with painted ones substituted in most of the videos viewed. Put the icing on the cake and post some classic Tait and Harris set video's. I remember Jeff Hook's cartoons in the paper and he done good Tait sketches and then you find his "hook"...Dave

Thank you for sharing your awesome content! I am a geography student currently studying Australia. Your footage has been tremendously helpful in learning the land! It's crazy how similar Australian and North American railroads are. Thank you and godspeed, you have a new sub and fan. Can't wait to see more!
