As an old driver out of Port Augusta just caught onto this. Great to see...plenty memories..

Interesting video. We used to put our trucks on the train from Parkeston to Pt Augusta back in the ‘80s and I used to get to ride up front. When we got to a passing loop the driver said I should go in the engine room in case there was an inspector on the approaching train. Those 16 cylinder EMDs made quite a racket lol. You wouldn’t get away with that nowadays obviously. It was around the time the speed limit was raised from 80 to 100 km/h for freight trains and the drivers weren’t too happy about that, at least not the ones I travelled with.

I travelled on trains melbourne to perth in 1955 and by car about same time. Been accros by car a few times since and by single engine airplane. The countryside is much the same as it was then. Traind and roads are much better.

Curiosity, towards the end of the video when the signalman walks over the tracks to the signal box, I thought point’s track switching is automatic, if so what’s his role?

Is there any kind of token or key that's exchanged so that a driver can safely assume right of way? Perhaps physical or digital or is it all automated?

Interesting clip ,enjoyed watching .

That's awesome mate

Only two locos (8-9000hp?) for that long train? Was it a reasonably light load unlike ore or coal trains?
