  • Your videos are really good

  • @chileo1 Thanks, I try hard. My ex wife says I was one of the most trying bastards she ever met.

  • @Rocketboy1950 Do you have to wait around for a long time to get the footage?

  • @chileo1 No, the iron ore railways are like conveyor belts. The stuff just keeps coming.

  • Im surprised that the other Australian rail companies haven't looked into getting AC4400's, Dash-9's especially for their stack trains.

  • @MrZkr123 The axle loads are too high for the old systems to handle plus they would be too big for much of the system. At this point in time the companies are better off with units that can run all over. Most new stuff is based on EMD GT46 variants.

  • @ConrailForever They dump about 27 consists a day. You'd be unlucky not to see one every 45 odd minutes. Between the three lines that is, WMLTP, EMLTP and Deep Dale.

  • Nice video and beautiful country

  • @ConrailForever I'd need one of the locals to answer that with any accuracy but I can say enough that you wouldn't be bored.

  • Fantastic video! I especially liked the last horn, RTIO 7076 it looked like. I'd love to go to Australia and shoot these ore trains. How many run per day?
