Kiama to Central real time cab view

This is in real time, no cuts to the footage, so you'll need about 2 hours to watch the whole thing.
Along the way you'll hear Waterfall Signal Box advising me of trespassers in the corridor.
A lot of the footage had to be muted, regrettably, as I was playing music in the cab and YouTube picked that up on the initial upload and made a copyright claim. However you still hear me chatting with the signal box - although you don't hear them speaking as it's a different setup compared to the V sets.

Regardless of the lack of sound, that was an enjoyable couple of hours. Thanks for posting an excellent video.

Thanks for posting this video. Parts of this trip represent some of the best scenic rail spots around Sydney.

What a great experience you brought to us. Love it.

This is awesome. I grew up in Dapto and Kiama was a popular holiday spot for my family. I remember taking this train ride in the late 80s on a return trip on a school excursion. After my family moved to W.A in 1989, I'd only had very shaky memories of that lovely route. Thanks for this mate, I was researching the old red rattlers and decided to look up my old train station in Dapto when I stumbled across this vid.

I think I might have taken this ride more than 50 years ago. But the view was not as panoramic! This video made me miss Australia so much more than I had expected. Time to return from California to my true home! Thanks for another great ride!

Great video,thanks for posting.

brilliant landscape + the same route, you could almost believe it would be here in Germany in the Black Forest or in the Middle Rhine Valley between Mainz + Koblenz. Many greetings from Heidelberg, good old Germanny.

Thanks for a great video full of lovely bi station names I missed on another much later one. Some of the quality was a bit iffy but basically pretty good. No one is commenting on how slow some of the trip was?
-
that page at 0:20 is really nice, shows the inner workings of the driver. thanks for providing it
-
Thanks for this video. I wonder if a Kiama to Bomaderry cab view video exists anywhere on the 'net?

A big thumbs up from me for this vid!! I haven’t travelled on that line since the seventies on the South Coast Daylight!! Which kind of gives away my age! And a thumbs down though for the copyright problem-its not like it’s a bootleg 2hour music video! Keep ‘em coming mate!

Nice sunny cab ride through New South Wales near Sydney. It is my first cabride in Australia. Have been all over Europe, but not here . What was that all about people trespassing near Waterfall station? Did not spot the trespassers anywhere nearby. Hope for more uploaded videos of Australia.

Good video, pity about the sound of the train, may be it could re-videoed with the sound of the train. You Sydney train drivers are great, you hear the bloke saying, _Door closing, please stand clear! Like in Brisbane, then ding then you go, not like i Melbourne, just the horn, nothing else, even Adelaide nothing really, sometime horn, when approaching a level crossing! Doesn't Melbourne and Adelaide Metros have guards like Sydney and Brisbane?

I had to say the Kiama to Central trip is 2 hours long going past T4 stations with stops and going though tunnels Waterfall to Heathcoat that is awesome. Playing music as well.
-
Excellent
-
Is this also muted to "protect the innocent"? ;)
-
Like similar videos there was no indication , for those not in the know (1) various train numbers (2) an unexplained sheet at the beginning was for Otherwise , appreciated.
