Train Congestion at Sherwood 26th June 2024
Gold Coast trains travelling via Sherwood due to Cross River Rail contruction, cause a little congestion at Sherwood.
(00:00) a flashing yellow signal warns the approaching train on the Up Suburban line to proceed slowly.
(00:04) NGR 774 with a Gold Coast train, on the Up track comes to a stop just after the signal. I assume so it doesn't stop on the platform and confuse passengers for Ipswich.
(00:44) 2838 with Y752 pulls up to a red signal on the Up Main line. It has to cross the down Suburban line to get to go down the Tennyson line.
(02:29) NGR 772 with an Airport bound train clears the Up suburban line so NGR 774 can proceed.
(03:17) Ipswich bound NGR 723 arrives from Graceville and proceeds past a flashing yellow signal to platform 1 on the Up Sub line and on towards Ipswich.
(04:07) 2838 gets a proceed aspect and departs for Acacia Ridge with it's sweeper train Y752.

I'd like to say a relaxed evening of running passenger trains on my model railway, but with three trains, all the track switches and a camera to operate it was a bit hectic and mistakes were made. I still had fun and hope you enjoy watching. Apologies for the sound quality and the video quality as night falls, but I wanted to show the lights on the layout.

PN009 slows to a stop at the now closed Tennyson station, before getting a signal into the PN yard at Moolabin. (the road was set for the Moolabin loop as you'll see in the initial photo.) After about 12 minutes, the driver is relieved, and the new driver begins shunting the intermodal train into the unloading tracks. The process took about 50 minutes, but I've compressed it into just over 10. ...

Very nice, like .
Waiting! Waiting! Waiting! 😊
Often a waiting game for photographers too. lost track of the number of times I've waited for a train that I thought was coming but it didn't turn up. It's not like you can hide on a railway. lol
Great footage Alan! Thanks for sharing mate! 😊👍 Good to see both 1089 and 1079 are in steam.
Great footage Alan.
good vid o steam train keep up the cool vids you do on channel
I waited for 2 hours at Ebenezer for 1089 but it never came. Did it brake down or did it reverse into the yard next to the signal box and went straight to the work shops?
I don't know for sure, but I don't think Ebeneezer was part of the plan today. I was only at Sherwood. Would have been very frustrating making the trip out there when nothing came.
Thanks for the info mate. Great video.
Great to see!
43 cars including engine maximum length i believe
Yes 41 hoppers is max train length on those trains, due to passing loop lengths.
Hi Alan this is Felipe Trains here great video. Will they continue crew training next week?
Sorry Felipe, I've been away without internet access. I believe they ran a few days while I was away, but I don't know if any more training runs are planned.
Great Alan
.Good video, like.
Great vid Alan! Would be the first time a train has been on the line for a while I think.
They took it (1079) out there dry a few weeks ago to turn it around while the Ipswich turntable is out of action.
Good video mate was great seeing you their
Likewise and thanks.
Looks like Peter Cohen at the controls. Well Done mate, good to see you finally get what you wanted.
good vid
Another great video
Nice video mate well done
At 16:40 near Wallaville, what would those Cars be carrying with the Yellow Engine pulling? To Quote Jean Luc Picard "Nicely Done".
They are transporting cut sugarcane sticks. Taking them to sugar mill where they will be crushed and juice extracted.
Looks like 8 wagons into C1, 1 wagon into W1 and 7 into W2... to the untrained eye....
Excellent video mate ❤
Thanks Tom.
Nice video mate love it
Thanks Tom. Much appreciated.
Good one Alan! 🙂
You certainly have been out and about Alan. 🙂 The cooler days makes things a lot more pleasant.
🤔 Yes that is a bit odd. Good catch Alan. 🙂
Yes I think they've been doing it more frequently during Cross River rail construction.
enjoyed
i know the people that ran the wallaville set good people from bundy
.Nice video, likes from me.
Great video. Like me
Great footage as always Alan. 🙂👍
Its pretty loud but its cool i wonder exactely what its doing!
I wonder if this was the super quiet one through cambooya last night, barely heard her
Possibly.
Great stuff Alan! 🙂
Thanks Colin. Missed the PN train at Sherwood due to my impatience. Another 5 minutes there and I would have been able to video it.
Ooh Azmans back with another glory of a train video!

I been there on may 5 i love it and i found an interesting channel from this video
You're on my turf there Alan! I attended a fault on the crossover at SHerwood last week....it's always playing up! I'm on nights this week , so will be working on points somewhere in your video ..LOL. Cheers Gregg.
That crossover gets a fair bit of work Gregg. I thought you'd be familiar with those tracks.
Hello Alan, your footage is impressive. The initial captures numerous wagons that are unoccupied. I appreciate you for sharing Alan💞💪
yes I think I only counted 6 containers on the front of the train. It is called a sea train as it travels from and inland hub at Emerald to the port of Brisbane. It's been running for over a year now and brings containerized local grain and produce to the sea port. Linfox does similar with containerised freight to north Queensland using Aurizon trains. They run to a timetable and sometime don't have anywhere near a full load.
Amazing video
Thanks for that.
Great footage Alan. Thanks for sharing. 🙂👍
Thanks Col.
A lot of empty wagons on the first one. Was it getting more somewhere?
It was nearing the end of it's trip.
Nice work. My video's not public yet, but yours is way more in depth. Well done. 👍
Hey Alan why did the coal train stop?
Hi Elijah, Spring Bluff is a passing loop. the track either side of it is a single track. So trains traveling in opposite directions, meet here to pass each other. From the station you can't see where the two tracks join to become one. Once the train coming in the opposite direction has cleared the single track, the points change so this train can proceed onto the clear track.
No mistaking it, that's for sure.
0:12 looks like spring bluff
Nice, I like this one because I am thinking of doing a QR line layout. Also looking to do an American themed layout. Lots of good ideas here. Thanks for posting. Really well captured. Regards.
Thanks John.
Couldn't hear the trains for the music!
I know. You couldn't hear them there either, because of the crowd noise. We had sound equipped locos and you couldn't hear the horns because of the crowd noise. The PA announcements and people talking was mostly what the camera mic recorded, that's why I added the music
Hey Paul, see what you think of the original sound track featuring the camera recorded sound. It's my next video. (Same pictures).
Loved Wallaville, a great cane layout
I’m a member of the Brisbane All Gauge Model Railway Club and was volunteering at the ‘Midlands’ layout at: 10:12
Midlands was a very nice layout.
I didn't go this year Brisbane train show but I be there next year thanks for the greatest video
My pleasure!
