Looks like a track at 5:47 a little bouncy! Why is the train named "James Cook"?

@iasurgtcamvoy Locomotive 1770 was built in 1970 which was the 200th anniversary of Captain Cook exploring the east coast of Australia. So this is the reason for naming the loco "James Cook".

Do QR use electric locomotives for freight trains ? (seems to be 25kV 50Hz )

@neo93220 QR use to have the 3900 class for Freight usage on the North Coast line between Brisbane & Rockhampton until May, 2005 when the remaining 3900's were transferred to Coal haulage duties in Central Queensland.

How do you upload videos longer than 10 minutes, do you pay that privilage??
Colhad 2 years ago
I got a directors account back in 2006 which allowed you to upload more than ten minutes of video.
However since people would upload whole TV shows they decided to limit any future directors accounts after November, 2006 to no more than 10.59.
My account comes under the older Youtube policy and was not penalised when the policy changed. The only way you can upload more than ten minutes is under the partner program.
