All the shunting, coupling, and uncoupling brought back memories of my old Train Simulator days when I used to like doing yard work. Thanks for this video, Phil.

Great video Phil. Firstly it was the 16 car v set now it’s the 12 car oscar!

[@Australiantrainsvlogs4145]

Wow Phil, that was very rare just like the 16 carriage V-set you recorded a few years ago, your videos are always amazing. You will get to 1M subscribers one day!

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

It was a cool sight! Even though it only lasted 10 minutes lol. 1M would be incredible! :)

[@What_an_adventure]

That 12 car Oscar remined me of the 16 car v set, what a rare sight

[@geoffreymartin2764]

Very random, thanks Phil. 🔱🏳‍🌈

Hi Phil, this is definitely a "different" video, and with the coupling and decoupling of the Hsets. The coupling of the endeavour sets. The unusual movement of the Tsets and assorted action at Central Station, most of your older viewers will need a drink and a cigarette 😉😂. I am so pleased you didn't go to Railway Square and capture a bus mounting a kerb 😂. The beginning of your Xrated series 😂

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Hi John! :) Plenty of action that day! Hahahaha a carton of drinks more like 🤣🤣🤣

[@traingeekfromNSW]

Haha! Bet he’ll be filming a tram coupling with a v set soon😂.

That 12-car OSCAR is almost as exciting as the 16-car V-set!

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Cheers mate! :)

[@Haz3Len]

WOW What a new announcement does not pick up!

[@lanky_danky929]

Last Thursday, I saw a random Richmond service at Central departing from platform 3, that was random af.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Oh that’s very interesting! There may have been delays causing some services to terminate at Central Intercity

[@lanky_danky929]

@@sydneytrainsvlogs Possibly, it was the only service departing from that platform at the time

[@transportvlogs]

It's been pretty interesting since the start of the year with quite a few interesting rail movements especially with 12 & 16 car set movements which are definitely pretty rare. There's one movement that happens pretty much everyday is a 6 car Endeavour that usually runs between Sydenham & Central Spotting a 4 car Tangara or two that's not running on the Waterfall to Port Kembla South Coast runs is also pretty rare now unless you see one or two in the yard or maintenance facility shunting

[@leeroberts1192]

Do the trains in Sydney not do a "pull-away test" after coupling to prove that they've mechanically coupled properly? I know that here in the UK all trains were required to do so, not sure if they still have to. Desiro units over here automatically shut both cabs down once coupled.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

They do :) Especially trains like the V Set

[@sydneylightrailfan290]

I was hopeing the endevor would couple to the oscar

[@Allnonym0u5]

0:44 19th century cemetry was under those platforms you're on.

[@Tom-sr2tg]

Where were the tangaras going to and why did the oscars couple up as a 12 carriage train?

[@hazzman08]

Hey Phil! When will you be parramatta way? They started day time testing for light rail yesterday

[@supermariorunwaratahtrainr2560]

There's been an update happening this month, i was scrolling on KZbin and there was a blue Mountain's Flyer, Steam Train's 3526 and 3265 did a blue Mountain flyer yesterday

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

That’s so cool!

[@ForTheBirbs]

And today's choice of coffee purveyor Phil? 🎉😅

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Today was Subway Snacks 😁

[@markpaisley1530]

First a 16 car V set and now a 12 car H set😅

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Hahaha an interesting sight!

[@YasminWilson-no3bh]

What was the point to the Oscar’s moving around

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Set swap as one must’ve been suffering issues

[@YasminWilson-no3bh]

@@sydneytrainsvlogs makes sense Is it true that when the D sets enter service and the Oscars move to the Suburban services will the K sets be retired

[@All_Stars_gamez123miku]

Phill! What If Sydney Light Rail Can have more lines like L4 L5 L6 L7 and that's literally it

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

Maybe there will be extra lines in the future :)

[@TANGARASandOSCARS]

What was the need for this maneuver? Were certain carriages due for maintenance? Disruption?

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

It’s all part of the timetable. To do with many things like maintenance and set availability etc

[@jdouble-l19978]

What was all the shunting for?

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

It’s a normal thing that’s part of the timetable.
