Ok, is there any real good spots for photography around Seymour?? Or around somewhere where there is a lot of movementsHeathcote Junction is a bit of a hack spot, being the top of the grade in either direction. Just down the road at Wandong there is a nice overbridge that you can get decent shots from. Closer to Seymour, Schoolhouse Lane in Dysart, Sharps & Taylors Rd in Tallarook is also alright.
2 video from a Sunday afternoon at the Stawell Station including a close call with 2 kids, a 93 class and the sand trainSo you were the bloke I spoke to briefly? Nice to meet you!

Thanks guys, are there any time tables of train movements and also, does anyone no of accommodation around Melbourne, probably near a semi major line if that's possible, anything from hotels to caravan parks.Well you could stay in the city, which is where all train lines meet.
Many thanks,
Trying to plan the best trip possible for dads 60th
Sure, would that be the best spot, or would you see more towards the branches. By mor I mean trains during the day time, and any time tables or tracker?????You'd get more freighters around the Dynon/Tottenham area, and more passenger services at Southern Cross.
is it usual for an xrb to be on this train?No it is not, which would be why Michelle12 made the reference to it not being MA3 which is the only train to normally have the NR-XRB-NR combination and be only using 60' flats.

Was just wondering if i take any photos in future can i use my photo bucket sight as a link or does it have to be on Flickr?You can use any photo hosting site you wish to use. I run my own site myself (link in my signature), but you can always host at PhotoBucket and post a link.
