Coal train at Briaba

[EMBaldwin]

This area is single track with passing loops. This particular video is at Briaba loop, with the train on the main line.

First time I've watched this vid since the 2600s left the Newlands system. Brings back some good memories.

The 2600 class are one of the best sounding locos in Queensland..:)

I wish more loco's sounded like them, i grew up listening to these in the distance (I lived near a mine they goto), awesome sound... especially from a standing start on a slight uphill grade!

Seen you guys filming us before...now I've seen how you see us at work. Good video mate.

Couple of things I noticed were the driver shuts off with only a handful of wagons over the peak ( loads up the dynamic adjacent those trees ) and plenty of flat spots (wheels) on those wagons near the rear.

Great trains from Down Under!

[jaydaxhonda]

wow ......

[pwormald]

Great sound, U26 always did sound excellent! Shame they modified the cabs, lost their great GE looks, but good for the crew comfort!

[kiwirailengineer]

Lost the cab, but these ex U22C's didn't start out with a U boat nose anyway.

Spawn of satan they may be, but 2600's have always had a good sound, I'll give you that. 4 of them together would have sounded magnificent...
