Sydney Trains Vlog 1282: 16 Carriage V Set

[@ThomasNing]

"The 10 car trams are too long! What a joke!" V-Set: "hold my coupling"

[@zander4210]

Central: "i don't like this"

[@sethtan715]

It's too long

[@781David]

I've always liked the whistle as the brakes release on the DJM & DKM cars.

[@fjd12]

Same

[@OldAussieAds]

Same. I’m going to sure miss it.

[@sydneytransportfilms8444]

Never seen a 16 car set before!

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Vernon Fernandez Me neither :)

[@ThebusofdoomFSX]

Fantastic vlog Phil! Such an amazing sight to see! It does however highlight the constant issue on NSW railways of broken down freight trains constantly disrupting passenger trains.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+ThebusofdoomFSX Its sad to say but yes i agree with you 100%

[@jamesfrench7299]

Privatisation such a great ideology.

[@kronovore3583]

Grant Goldman "CityRail regrets the delay and apologises for any inconvenience caused". I miss the V Sets and the whistling sound of their breaks. Many fond memories. Great video.

[@therandomguy332]

I will miss these trains when they scrap them. The smell of the interior, whistles, hissing, brake wining brings me back memories going to the blue mountains in these trains.

[@sif354]

yes 😪😔😥

[@OldAussieAds]

Me too. Though you don’t hear the whine too much these days as the aircon is so loud.

[@logamramekavlogs5561]

Only an experienced driver would be allowed to drive this long as train

[@jswaggart01]

LogamRameka Vlogs not necessarily. As long as they are qualified for the type of traction and the route. Experience is not really a factor.

[@PaulsTrainVlogs]

There were also delays on the T1 Western Line affecting services to Penrith, Richmond and the Blue Mountains due to urgent track equipment repairs at Westmead caused the Mount Victoria service to arrive at its destination 95 minutes behind schedule

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Paul's Train Vlogs Oh yes i heard about that. Oh wow! 95 minutes! I bet there were a lot of frustrated passengers.

[@tendarb]

How cool was that, it just kept coming and coming.....!

[@yingbinfeng]

5:07 there is a bird on the v set pecking it

[@TheRealMillennium]

No?

[@tintin5428]

just today, I saw an 8 car V set train going to the city...and then this comes on my reccomendated 🤣

[@FlyingExplorer2022]

Watching this today from a 4 car V set 😊

[@jaydee9472]

awesome vlog. this reminds me of the photo of a 6 car v set that I have

[@kingawags]

4, 4 car V Sets @ once.. mind blown..

[@ThatSeanG]

V sets surprisingly look modern for their age

[@SarmadTechLab]

I guess the design of there trainlink livery is why.

[@SarmadTechLab]

But from the side it's pretty old.

[@shazzaexcelleentyoung6219]

This is the best v set vid

[@colinwilkie2279]

Where did the 16 carriages come from, Flemo yard or newcastle. Plus how many v.sets can they join together 16 24 or 32, maybe 40 do you know. Because I know that the most 600-700 class can only join 4 sets ie 8 cars together. So please tell of you know thanls

[@Itz_Scotlyn]

We need more people in our life

[@billyali2004]

Awesome rare sighting!

[@nswtrainsvlogs4853]

The good news is that NR 8 is back in service

[@treypohe4593]

It's weird because the V Set, C Set and T Set sound very similar...

[@AdamsCarWashVids]

Trey Pohe They use chopper controls compare to the K and the other V sets that use camshaft

[@AustralianRailwayVideos]

@@AdamsCarWashVids there are V sets fitted with a chopper motor

[@AdamsCarWashVids]

@@AustralianRailwayVideos Yes there is, I can’t remember which specific sets have a chopper motor control installed

[@OldAussieAds]

[@fbi1168]

That’s a bloody big train!

[@peterchajo]

That is one long v set, AWESOME VIDEO!!! :)

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+SydneyAirportCapturer HL Thank you :)

[@ThomasNing]

"the front 8 cars" haha probably never hear that one again

[@danieljxliu]

I don’t know about that one, now that we will soon have 10-car intercity trains...

[@bigmariofan100]

Amazing vlog, i really liked it :)

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+BigMarioFan100 Thank you :)

[@bigmariofan100]

Sydney Trains Vlogs Also if you want, you can go check out my Easter Show video because i saw the Sydney Driverless train

[@LizLover-xz5ot]

I only see 8 sets or 4 sets, the rarest I’ve seen is a 12 set at springwood

[@davebunt844]

I was on that train

[@Videogamemaster006]

i filmed it at Redfern. I was thinking what the hell was this and then I noticed that 2 v sets where delayed so yea

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+page2004 Gaming Awesome :)

[@AndrewBoothOfficial]

Shame I was out of the country when this went down. This is my fetish.

[@leochambers1422]

Any ideas what the arrangement with the guard was? Did they have two guards in the middle of each 8 car set, or just one guard for the entire 16 cars?

[@ilytez4801]

I saw another yt vid of a guy who recorded a funny guard announcement, funny thing is it was on the first 8 car intercity to leave, and I saw u! Lol

[@bitesizedrocks5885]

Oh yes I saw that near wolli creek platform 3 today or maybe not but it had red at the front and was a little flatter and rounder than the other trains...wow ..can you tell me maybe what id seen today the thirteen of June

[@johndelaney2957]

Good old v sets,they should keep them going as long as they can,nothing will be as reliable as them.

[@OhKnow379]

new trains look terrible. I miss when train used to be such a romantic form of travel.

[@frehesh.4386]

@@OhKnow379 i personally love the modern trains as well as the silver sets, the silver sets look better but its hard to travel with a bike

[@OhKnow379]

@@frehesh.4386 Oh for sure

[@nswtrainsvlogs4853]

And Cam did a vlog about a 10 car set at Awaba

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+NSWTrains Vlogs Yeah i filmed that 10 car set pass Ourimbah.

[@kingawags]

Can either of you guys shed any light into the myth's of the old underground lines beneath Central P1/2?

[@manetsky913]

Sydney Trains Vlogs ii

[@ayoutubechannel8925]

@@sydneytrainsvlogs they're y sets combined with a v set

[@PeterArnold1969]

Hi Phil. At around the 8:00 mark, are the yellow hoses on the track for the steam locos?

[@781David]

I'd imagine that the main use for them would be refilling water tanks on the Indian Pacific, XPT etc

[@benhuang2773]

If there were tracks long enough, would you theoretically be able to couple even more carriages together and still drive them normally?

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Ben Huang I think 16 carriages is the limit with V Sets. I guess there could be more if a 5th set was dead attached.

[@SamSitar]

16 carriage set seems to make up for that accident.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Sam Sitar It sure does

[@nswtrainsvlogs4853]

Earlier today did you here about a freight train catching fire at Cardiff? I think is a coal train operated by PN's 82s or 90s

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+NSWTrains Vlogs it was an intermodal train. Locomotive NR8 caught fire.

[@nswtrainsvlogs4853]

What happened to NR8: mechanical issue?

[@nswtrainsvlogs4853]

Would the 4:51 pm service to Mt Victoria have it's stopping patterns changed?

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+NSWTrains Vlogs the engine failed on NR8 causing oil to drip on an extremely hot part of the motor which sparked the blaze.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+NSWTrains Vlogs i think the Mt Victoria service stopped at it's normal stopping pattern.

[@marcusbaker830]

Not just long IT IS THE ENTIRE DEFINTION OF IT

[@lachlanjenkin]

i also have a group name for not only the v sets but the tangara's and now dead c sets the chopper trio

[@cads877]

great catch Phil !

[@garyflack2452]

What train was it that cought on fire

[@bitesizedrocks5885]

Dude I saw one of these trains at wolli creek platform 3 today .. But it didn't come here just to the left OMG did I see something rare? It had red at the Front? Wow

[@bowlerstuff9589]

You proberly saw the ATP test train as the V sets dont run down towards Wolli Creek

[@KyranKo]

That's so many carriages

[@sarahmiletic6864]

What Do You Mean From Goran Miletic

[@danialamin-rahmanlou7111]

I think I saw this train at West Ryde, and when it passed I was sure that something was weird...

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Danial Amin-Rahmanlou cool! :)

[@AdamsCarWashVids]

Was this a camshaft and a chopper controlled v set coupled together?

[@OldAussieAds]

Why does DIM8069 have such a loud motor? I’ve ridden in this carriage many times and it’s a nightmare when trying to catch a morning nap. And why don’t you hear the motor all the time in trains? Like here, you hear it turn off for a bit.

[@bowlerstuff9589]

[@Voyagerthe2nd]

what time was this?

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+Voyagerthe2nd the fire was earlier this morning. The 16 car V Set arriving into Central was about 5pm.

[@martinbauer8395]

Platform 1 is long enough to accommodate a standard Indian Pacific consist of about 15 or 16 cars.

[@logamramekavlogs5561]

They must've gotten a veteran train driver to drive this very long train

[@jswaggart01]

LogamRameka Vlogs nope, see reply to your other comment :)

[@adelaideonthego]

Interesting

[@davidsok81]

first nr class loco had oil leak then which cause the engine to catch alight.

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

+David Sok Correct

[@PlatformONE]

How did you know that it will be 16 cars long, and what sets they were before seeing it?

[@Lightningdoyle21]

A frieght train caught fire and The v sets got trapped so that's why it was a 16 car set

[@TheRealMillennium]

Also I’m not too sure but I think Phil works with the Sydney transport as he is allowed to go some off bound places

[@Natgrapher]

Wow that's rare to see

[@sydneytrainsvlogs]

16 CARRIAGE V SET TRAIN!!!!!!!!

[@veronicacroucher5910]

Rare v sets 16

[@CLeungistravelling]

Wow, I wonder how Platform 1 can fit all 16 cars at once

[@tazzer9]

+C. Leung platforms 1,2,3 at central are just really long. They are mainly used for the long distance trains and their very long length is a relic of a bygone era where interstate trains were up to 16 carriages long.

[@nomaryun05]

Taran Saunders 224

[@kingawags]

It's an original steam platform. P1&2 are almost non operational.

[@tazzer9]

Platforms 1, 2 and 3 are in regular use for long distance services for the indian pacific, xpt's, xplorers and the occasional use by specials such as steam tours. Only on weekday mornings does platforms 4 and 5 get used by long distance services due to the amount arriving and leaving around 730 am.

[@labrador2818]

Also the indian pacific to Perth

[@marcusbaker830]

HOLY SHIT THAT IS L O N G

so why would the ABC buy sydney tarins. no 1 the ABC runs there stations clean and efficiency. no 2 the ABC runs multiple things such as radio and T.V.

[@PhilipVels]

Where did you see this? ABC is owned and funded by the Australian Government.

[@ramonenriquez66]

WHAAAAAAAAAHHH!??!?!?💀💀☠️☠️☠️💀💀☠️☠️☠️

[@logamramekavlogs5561]

But why a V set? Why not a Waratah, Oscar or Millenium instead of this rickety and old ass train?

[@jamesfrench7299]

Millennial mentality at play here.

[@MattExzy]

There's nothing wrong with them. They're trains, not sports cars. The V sets are the only electric sets that can go past Springwood and service the mountains (up to Lithgow). They're pretty much all due for replacement in a couple of years' time, anyway.

[@labrador2818]

I think they will be replaced in 2019.

[@steeltrap3800]

Shame, really. Love the V-sets and have chosen to catch them by swapping at Central vs taking another limited stop service that goes through there. I must say I preferred them with their 'blue face' than this look, however.
