Awesome to see, I'm from Australia myself so cool to see some appreciation for our engines Many of our locomotives were.. "heavily influenced" by American engines, but they're certainly charming in their own way. The Lima C38's are a little outdated by now as I believe they were made in the 70's, but they are nice engines if you can score them on a bargain. Interesting paint job too, during the 1950's the class was given a "cost cutting" paintjob of all black with few exceptions while diesels were beginning to take over much of the glamorous work from the class. The streamlined engines (3801 - 3805) were given red "cat whiskers" alike the yellow/gold ones they had while painted green a while after, however the Waratah (the red flower on the streamlined smokebox door) wasn't painted back on any of the engines until around the 1980's - 90's when 3801 was returned to steam. 3801 still operates today after a lengthy overhaul, however many overlooked faults that require immediate repairs have left her inactive most of this years steam season, with her expected to return to service in the last quarter of this year.

[@jdenm8]

They made them as late as 2009. The one in the video is likely from the 90s; the blue 'Lima Collection' box is a dead giveaway, and the included manual lists Product Numbers 208482/83/84, which didn't exist until 1995. Can't tell based on the train itself, the thick enamel paint has obscured all of the moulded detail. The ones from roughly the late 90s onwards got a whole bunch of improvements, and were highly desirable until the ARM one came out. Though even the recent ARM one is just a rework of the 1990s Lima one based on ARM's requirements.

[@SMTMainline]

That's what I find fascinating about Australian rolling stock, they are similar to GE's north American stock yet different in lots of ways. Thanks for the info on some of these specific units.

[@marcevans6771]

It's great to see you have added some more Australian engines to your collection. I live in Australia

[@JacobGrimaR761]

6:40 I used to see the real B80 almost everyday after school pulling a train of containers carrying rice to Melbourne, even now 70 years after she entered service with the Victorian Railways she is still pulling mainline freight with SSR today.

[@SMTMainline]

It's awesome how Australia still has 70 year old locomotives being put to work. In Canada and the US for that matter locomotives are given a 50 year lifespan, after which they must be completely rebuilt, sent to a museum or scrapped. There are exceptions with some short lines etc

[@ErickC]

The CL doesn't have much in common with an E unit. The reason the rear end looks the way it does is because it's a 40-series locomotive. It's effectively an SD40 (16-645E3) with a full cowl carbody and a bulldog nose grafted on. Originally, the CL class was going to have the same nose as the FP45. They were rebuilt to more or less dash-2 standard (actually closer to a so-called "dash-3" rebuild with microprocessor traction control) by MK in 1992.

[@ROBERTNABORNEY-jx5il]

Erie/Victorian Rlwys ;/livery was definitely a product of SMD's Styling Department at LaGrange as the locos were built under license from GM. They were essentially SD7 (1500 ho C-C) cabunits. The V Line loco scheme reminds me of the old Lon Gisland gray and orange. Gauges in Oz remain a muddle with 2 Foot, Cape Gauge (42 inches), Standard Guage and Irish Broad Gauge (63 inches) being still ii use. This was due to each colony going its own way prior to unification into one nation and mother Britain not putting down her foot. It took until 1995 for all state capit;ld to be linked `by a common gauge. "The three main railway gauges in Australia are narrow: 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in), standard: 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in), and broad: 1,600 mm (5 ft 3 in). A slow progression towards unification to standard gauge has taken place since the 1930s. About 4,000 km (2,500 mi) of 610 mm (2 ft) light railways in Queensland support the sugar-cane industry"

[@JohnBachofer]

I'm really liking the last engine you unboxed, the one with the Wyoming scheme. Some time ago I commented on a video showcasing some examples of that locomotive in action and the uploader was cool to explain how that type of engine is for all intents and purposes an SD40-2 wearing an E8's body.

[@wceyuki]

The CL's rear section shares a lot more with later EMD cowls like the FP45 or the SDP40F, it's kind of interesting paired with the older F or E unit style cab

[@williamsquires3070]

Yeah, it’s like an FP45 with an F-unit cab. The Santa Fe (AT&SF) had some FP45s before the BNSF merger.

[@Comeng_]

I have the Lima V/Line S Class 310, which is in the same Tangerine and Grey Livery as that B class at 11:23!

[@patricksmodels]

You've bought a fine selection here. Lima motors are bulletproof, they just need a clean and lubricant and they're as good as new. The two Rivarossi American 4-4-0s seem to be missing the drive shaft between the tender and the loco. Rivarossi motors are really good quality. They're not easy to disassemble, but you can easily clean them with contact cleaner and then clean out the commutator segments with a toothpick through the brush housings. The brushes are one carbon and one copper mesh, so the commutator is usual nice and clean.

[@SMTMainline]

Thanks for the info. I think Lima might have made the best pancake drive

[@jamesfitch6431]

Nice video. Neat trains from downtown unda... thanks for sharing. Love the train video at the end.

[@jimmyseaver3647]

A fascinating little fleet you've acquired. Hopefully you'll be able to score some rolling stock to go with it. The Aussies run some rather fascinating operations, especially out in the northwestern portions of the country where American-built EMDs and GEs haul massive, _massive_ trains full of iron ore.

[@KibuFox]

It's no surprise the Tri-Ang OO engines would have issues. They were designed to run on a different type of track, more akin to an OO version of Lionel 'tube' track.

[@johnd8892]

Not much in common with Lionel three rail tube track, but definitely much higher rail. More like code 125 steel track than the now common code 100. The Victorian Railways lettered one is earlier than 1960 production runs.

[@garysprandel1817]

The VR livery being a case copying Erie is more a case of EMD's livery design department recycling an existing livery.

[@emdB67]

The story of how the Erie-inspired livery was selected is covered in the books "The ML2 Story" and "The A7 Era", about the B and S class respectively. It was the Victorian Railway's Chief Mechanical Engineer, Andrew Ahlston who ultimately selected the design from photos of EMD locos collected by George Brown while he was in the USA.

[@Zebrails]

Pretty cool, SMT, pretty cool indeed! And running them side by side was tops! John

[@SMTMainline]

Thanks, it was fun to film those scenes.

[@Photoline1]

At the end of my visit to Melbourne for this year's F1 Grand Prix, I caught two trams to the central coach (bus) terminal in Melbourne, where I then caught an express coach to the airport. The coach terminal is adjacent and parallel to the main railway station, so you get a brief look at some VR engines as your coach heads out to join the motorway, which crosses over somee rail lines shortly thereafter.

[@Cosmos-mz5ut]

The Lima C38 repaint at 2:50 was trying to replicate the black colour scheme the C38s used in the fifties and sixties until 3801 got its green livery when set aside for preservation.

[@johnd8892]

Except Tyco cut a lot of corners just repainting their F7 with just four axles as the longer six axle, all powered, Victorian S class. Sold a few to kids market for a little while before the Hornby but especially the Lima model came on the market. Right number of wheels and far advance in other details. Now outclassed by more expensive PSM brass or more affordable and better value Trainorama models.

Hey Harrison sorry for missing your live unboxing of everything from Australia. But to let you know I had the varney finally up in the rails.

But on a high note have my dad's first train a 1965 American flyer that's being serviced wiring issues so in a couple of weeks it should be up on the rails running plus it's a smoker can't.

[@B10Mman]

Hi Harrison, the SDS NR class are just an updated Austrains model. John Easie, who owned Austrains, sold his business to SDS Models because he wanted to retire. The big 3 Australian owned model manufacturers are SDS Models, Auscision, and Southern Rail Models with Berg's Hobbies doing the Sydney Suburban trains under their Minimodels brand.

[@williamsquires3070]

Hi Harrison. I remember seeing a locomotive like you show at about 6 minutes in, with both a 2-axle and a 3-axle truck (bogie) on the History in the Dark YT channel several weeks ago. I believe it was in a compilation of “top 10 worst locomotives ever” playlist or some such. It’s similar to a Fairbanks-Morse C-Liner locomotive in the N. American market, but it (C-liner) has the 2-axle truck up front, and the 3-axle truck at the rear, unlike the one you show.

[@MrBnsftrain]

I'm amazed you were able to get Australian HO scale trains shipped to Canada! Tyco, Life-Like, Hornby, and other American and European manufacturers did sell their regular lineup in Australia but did produce some Aussie exclusives. The two-tone green model seems to be a cross between a B class, and E6, and FL9 and might be a fictional design. You can use some old 4-bay hoppers, 40ft tankers, intermodal cars, covered hoppers, ballast hoppers, flatcars, and British freight cars to make Australian-esque freight trains.

[@XDHwilks]

That C38 there is in a proper paint scheme that the C38s wore, but I'm not sure if Lima ever offered them in anything other than green so that would explain the custom paint job! The CL12 loco is simply a 'CL' class, while the CLP8 is a 'CLP' and that exact one still runs in mainline service to this day! Although I don't believe G&W still run down here, the locomotive is owned by (or leased to, not sure) SCT.

[@SMTMainline]

Thanks for the info. Others have mentioned that the G&W quit a while back, I wasn't aware until now.

[@buzzytrains9037]

I've got video of CLP8 going through my place, it's in that ARG paint but in reality GWA hasn't operated in years since one rail and aurizon took over. The CLs are basically shortened E units with SD40/GT26C guts. The reason there's CLs, CLFs and CLPs is because they were rebuilt for passenger and freight separately. The NRs are Pacific national's (basically australian equivalent of UP) main intermodal locomotive and they're GE powered. B80 is the B class that I have seen. The tyco S301 is supposed to be an S class but it's an F9 instead. The real S classes are as long as your B classes with basically the same wheelbase too.

I have and Austrains X class which has a cracked gear and I was told that when I purchased the model but spare parts can be bought from Ebay and also SDS Models sells parts for Austrains locos as well. All you need now is some Australian rolling stock to go with the locos. SDS Models, Auscision, Powerline and many other brands have a good selection to chose from.

[@JohnBachofer]

Revisiting this video because I just managed to score a Lima B-Class myself. It wears the Victorian Railways livery. The one that looks like the Erie paint scheme, I always wanted a B-Class wearing that livery. It'll be interesting to compare it to my Bachmann ATSF Freight F7. I was kind of hoping for Auscision but the Lima one is good enough. I've had it confirmed to me by Will James Railways that the Auscision B-Class models have been out of production for several years and there aren't any plans to bring it back any time soon.
