Sensational Streamliner Diesel Locomotives in 2020 on the mainline! - Australian Trains

Welcome to Schony747 trains on a Wednesday. If you enjoy the video, hit the like the button and press the bell to subscribe to Schony747 for weekly updates.
This week streamliner diesel locomotives leading trains on the mainline in 2020 are featured. The last streamliner diesel locomotive was built in 1972. Streamliners built in Australia were built between 1952 and 1972. It's pretty amazing that these icons are still running around in 2020 hauling trains on the mainline! A list of locomotives can be seen below -
00:32 - CLF1, GM22, RL306, RL302
02:36 - GM27 (not GM22 as the title says), 442s2
04:34 - S302, S312
06:03 - B76, B80
07:23 - 42103
08:59 - B76, B76
10:21 - CLF2, C501, CLF4
13:57 - GM22, 48s35, 48s34, G514
Have a great Wednesday and enjoy these icons - Brenden S.

For me , the streamliner has a timeless look that I think still looks great today, and they have such a unique sound

[@Schony747]

Yes indeed and a design that was built to last and look great.

[@jamesgovett2501]

That was absolutely fantastic, well done indeed!👍

[@slepper98]

Good stuff, thanks for that.

[@Schony747]

Thanks for looking 😁😁

[@thebops4180]

Awesome!

[@NicholassTrainChannel]

Nice video mate it is great that we still have streamliner locomotives in service today!

[@edmundcarew7235]

Love the 2 x Bs and X31 up Glenroy Bank. Victorian Railways! Overall, a great video. USA residents will rub their eyes in wonder. A very happy Christmas to you Brenden and huge thanks for bringing us these videos with such regularity during a difficult year with by far the worst mismanagement of 'the virus' in Oz.

[@Schony747]

Yeah I can see the jealous looks now. Thanks for your contributions throughout 2020.

[@edmundcarew7235]

@@Schony747 Far more importantly, I hope you have a continuing inflow of more subscribers and 'likes' to recognise the effort you take. You are recording railway history as in five years' time, who knows what locos will be running around?

[@petersullivan3902]

Great to see these magnificent. Locos doing their thing. Very traditional

[@Schony747]

Yes amazing stuff in 2020! A quality build will last the distance

[@COLINJELY]

The thing with these Locomotives is they look so good. They look like a locomotive should!

[@Schony747]

Exactly and the look and design has character

[@collinblack8474]

Nice track work making 42103 bounce.

[@Schony747]

1st rate as always 😀😀

[@Indianrailfan]

Very nice ❤️👌👌👌👌👌

[@Schony747]

Thanks 😁😁😁

[@AndreiTupolev]

These are great! I particularly like the shot at 6:25, and the two locos on the viaduct at 9:20.

[@Schony747]

Always a crowd favourite whenever they appear!

[@SheltonDCruz]

very well done!

[@Schony747]

Thanks. Have a great Christmas and New Year.

[@Brianrockrailfan]

Awesome video 🚄🚄👍

[@Schony747]

Thanks Brian

[@MrValhem265]

Nice Brendan, 7922v CLF 2 and others On the up through Ghap 10.41 Am today.

[@Schony747]

CLF4 was leading MP9 this arvo from Laverton. Look out for that.

[@MrValhem265]

@@Schony747 cool, i see that on ghap loop page cya.

[@andrewlawson5779]

Streamliners are like British class 37s and 40s, a sense of style and long lasting quality, around when others fail to make the grade.

[@Schony747]

Don't forget the class 45 peaks and the legendary class 55 Deltics!

[@andrewlawson5779]

Quite right, I stand corrected.

[@AndreiTupolev]

8:15 that's an unusual style isn't it, streamlined nose at one end and flat nose at the B end, a bit like a BR Class 91

[@Schony747]

The 421 was an interesting one as it could be driven on the mainline from both ends unlike the VR S which was restricted and didn't have full driver controls at the flat end.

[@edmundcarew7235]

@@Schony747 The 'hostler end' as it was called back in the days (S class Victorian Railways).

[@class8866]

In Germany are running even today diesel and electric locos built between 1956 and 1972...Greetings and stay safe ! Have a heathy New Year 2021 and stay corona free !

[@Schony747]

It seems to be the normal thing these days! Old but be reliable! Have a safe 2021.

[@geoffbarry9540]

So, lots of "heritage" ex-VR locos still cruising the trap (not just the bull noses). But all with painted numbers. Who got the cast plates?

[@Schony747]

It's always an interesting question and I'm sure plates have been acquired in unconventional circumstances. Probably the most diplomatic way to answer that!

[@edmundcarew7235]

@@Schony747 "Interesting" circumstances. Just like "colourful racing identities".

[@railtrolley]

And the Clyde builders plates, which were fitted to the valance panels over the fuel tanks on the B class. The panels were removed during 1960s-70s.

[@pauloconnor2980]

@8:58 I'm assuming that consist was turned around on the Totty triangle.

[@pauloconnor2980]

@13:26 any idea what SD in the theater box means?

[@louiskats5116]

Great video Brendan, Couple of things, is there any drivers view footage from Flinders st to Qube yard. Always wondered which tracks are involved to get from the outside flank of Southern Cross to Dynon Rd. It is a real shame C 501 is sandwich between the 2 beautiful CL, couldn't be in better company. Here is an idea, RP should buy XRB paint them up to match the CL & sandwich it between them. That would be awesome to see a booster unit between 2 beautiful bulldog loco's. Another great video again Brendan

[@johnd8892]

Drivers views on House Train may help, although PTV and Vline passenger driver training focussed. Spencer St to Broadmeadows one shows lots of the Dynon dual gauge trackwork. It is his most viewed video.

[@SWATforce1]

Does 42103 have a streamlined nose at one end and a flat nose at the other end? Or have I gone crazy

[@Schony747]

Controls at both ends for running purposes.

[@Shitphototaker69]

Hard to believe that SSR grain has been going up and down for almost 2 years now the grey rake was a lot cleaner in 2020 tho

[@Schony747]

The moving art gallery was always going to appear at some point 🤣😅😀

[@thebops4180]

CLF2 blowing a lot of smoke? Would any gauge tell the engineer something is not quite right?

[@trevorscott5625]

CLF 2 in second last clip seems to be blowing a lot of smoke??

[@Schony747]

I had the same thoughts. There can't be too much wrong with it as it's on the same train again.

[@railroadwolf]

Hey Schony747?. Why is there alot of interesting rail graffiti on those grain hoppers?.

[@vsvnrg3263]

have you noticed that at 10:28, you called the dooen train ssr instead of sct?

[@edmundcarew7235]

It's proper name is SBR IIRC.

[@vsvnrg3263]

@@edmundcarew7235 ,sorry, i thought this was an sct train. i know what iirc stands for. what does sbr stand for? can you tell me anything about rail power? i looked around the internet and found traces, along with the fact that ssr now has one of their old locos, i thought the company must have no longer existed. yet here are 2 locos with new signs on them.
