This was a real trip down memory lane for me because around 48 years ago I was one of 3 lucky apprentice Coach painters and Signwriters who got to work on the repainting of this beautiful giant. I clearly remember working with my Tradesman painstakingly re applying the distinctive golden yellow striping along the length of the boiler...all done by hand back in those days....and it was a privilege to watch my Tradesman apply his years of skill to this job. Just in passing we also got to fully repaint the outside and re varnish the inside of many carriages similar to those on the train in this video. Many thanks for the trip back in time!

Hi Rory. This is an excellent review and your use of split screen/picture in picture really enhances the experience for the viewer. The staff on these trains are mostly volunteers and some have very little knowledge of the era and the trains. The bathroom/toilet has been modified for the waste to go into a holding tank instead of being released directly onto the track as was the practice when in regular passenger service. When travelling in winter months footwarmers were placed in each compartment for the passengers to rest their feet on to keep warm. Usually there were too many feet so a little gentle pushing was common among the passengers. I always had a travel rug and pillow when on the night train. Those were great and adventurous days of rail travel. BTW we young lads always had the window open and often had our heads out and we NEVER wore light or white clothing 😉. Looking forward to your next video Rory.

@Gustave The Nile croc STEAM is not polluting....it is 100% water vapour. When the coal burns it generates ash which was repurposed plus soot which mostly falls on the ground where it is soluable and returns Carbon to the ground.... or particles that end up in your eyes for those silly enough to stick their head out the window and look forward.

This takes me back to my childhood & youth when steam trains were the norm when travelling into Sydney & I was one of the thousands who were sad to see them go & to end up with red rattlers taking over. I did the trip to Newcastle & back when the 3801 raced the XPT & we won. Yippee!!! It was a great day full of train enthusiasts out for a days entertainment. One of the things I miss most is no longer living near the western railway at Emu Heights where I enjoyed the trains for 40 years. We would all go outside to watch the steam trains on their special day trips go past & wave to those lucky to be onboard.

Hey Rory - love your work! Your mention of the window shutters reminded me of the days of my youth. Those same shutters were used on the 'Red Rattlers' that ran on the Sydney suburban network, and on Friday and Saturday nights it was not unusual to encounter a carriage where all the shutters had been pulled down, and all the light bulbs removed. If you inadvertently stepped onto one, it was a most interesting ride to the next station, or until you made you way in the pitch darkness to an adjoining - and hopefully lit - carriage.

A particular memory of 3801 was catching the Newcastle Flyer to Sydney as a teenager in the 1960s. It picked up at Newcastle, Broadmeadow or Fassifern. A suburban train could take you to one of these stations. Students did not spend up on taxis. At Fassifern, in winter, there was generally a roaring big fire in the waiting room. Once on the Flyer you could buy tea & toast . Railway China cups! Really thick. It was a treat but tricky to drink once the train built up speed.

Love your video Rory. I am old enough to remember travelling overnight on the corridor carriages on the North Coast Line. Sometimes a traveller or 2 could be lucky and get a 2nd class side to themselves if there were only 2 people in a compartment. Then the armrest could be folded up and the traveller could lie down and have a sleep. These carriages were cold in winter. On the southbound Mail train to Sydney, “foot warmers” were put into each carriage at Kempsey ( I think, I was just a kid ). These foot warmers were big metal devices filled with a liquid and initially they were too hot to put your feet on. By the time that you got down around the Hawkesbury they had cooled off and the last bit into Sydney in the early morning was quite chilly.

Great comment...many of us were raised in country towns and back before Governments lost their marbles we used to have amazing networks of small trains running around this State and nation. They were the backbone of communities for all forms of commerce and easy travel. I can happily say I travelled for over 40 minutes on a steam loco driven train to school every day around 1960. On some days it was 38 class, others a 36 or 35 class (both Aussie classics). Marvellous times and memories especially with my Dad being a station master. Victoria also had some amazing locomotives, make sure to read up on the S300 class that was specificially designed to haul the great fully streamlined train called the Spirit of Progress.

Hi Rory. I am soooo jealous !😂 Such a "modern" steam train ...I guess that because up until now, the steam trains I have seen or travelled on , have had the "traditional" style tender. The carriages...I can remember when I was in Grade 6, way back in 1969, our class took a train to Sydney, then to Canberra, then back to Melbourne. What you travelled in ( the 6 and 8 seat enclosed cabins) were what we travelled in. At the time they were just called country trains. Sleeping on them overnight was interesting , with some of us on the floor , and out in the corridor, curled up in our sleeping bags ! Unfortunately...now you know how old I am !😂😂😂

And part of the reason 3801 would have done the shuttles would be in recognition of the fact that she and others of her class hauled the Central West Express up until the early 1960's. There were around five regional daily services that these long haul locos were used on . One was also the Melbourne Limited, forerunner of the Southern Aurora.

Back in the day I travelled extensively between the North Coast and Sydney, on both the North Coast Mail and the North Coast Daylight Express. The compartments of the type in which you were situated were referred to as "dog boxes". They were not used on the "Daylight, which had open-plan seating with a central aisle. They were, however, used extensively on the mail trains. One feature - which has been removed from the compartment (and, I assume, from all the carriages) - was a glass water carafe (etched "NSWGR") and glasses, which was located in a metal holder in the central position above the windows.....exactly opposite the fan. In the latter years the glass carafe was replaced by a plastic unit. In my last trip on the North Coast Mail, in December 1963, I "souvenired" one of those glass items. :)

I'm not sure that you're right. Most longer distance country trains used carriages with a door each end of the carriage and another in the middle. In each instance, there was a lobby going full width across at the end of each carriage and a door the other side. Aisles gave access to the compartments. Seating was in compartments with 3 seats each side of the compartment in 1st class. I'm not certain but memory says that there were 4 seats each side in second class. Toilets each end of the carriages. Dog box carriages had a series of compartments going straight across the carriage with doors each side. There was no aisle connection between the compartments but at least some had a strange sort of toilet compartment between them. Access was was by lifting part of a seat and opening a door.

Correction...there were not 30 streamlined locos produced in the 38 class. The first five (only) were streamlined and proudly manufactured at Clyde engineering by excellent Aussie tradesmen (and apptentices) . The remaining were manufactured jointly between the once brilliant loco shops at the Everleigh (Redfern) and at Cardiff Newcastle. So every time we go past Everleigh into Central we should thank those workers. BTW there are no baths in the "bathrooms" and these have been referred to simply as toilets, a term used in rail travel since Stephenson's days. Americans tend to want to be PC and not hear the word probably because it sounds shitty. You are correct in saying the buffet cars have been renovated since operating on some famous daylight express / flyer trains I remember from the 1960's. Car sets similar to what the Newcastle Flyer had were also used on similar trains like the Riverina Express etc.

Would you be able to review one of Steamrail Victoria or 707 Operations’ weekender trains? Or maybe just one of their tours. I think it would be interesting to see
