Trains on the Stony Point line - Melbourne Transport

Описание: In this video we see some trains on the Stony Point line, a single track railway on the Mornington Peninsula running from Frankston to the small town of Stony Point. It is the only line operated by Metro Trains Melbourne that isn't electrified, therefore using V/Line Sprinter DMU's to operate the service. We also see a clip of the long island steel train heading towards Hastings. We also see DERM 58RM at a couple of locations on a special charter train to Stony Point, including a fantastic horn show at Tyabb.

At the time of uploading passenger services on the line had just resumed after being suspended for over three months from April 2015 due to the Sprinter railcars failing to trigger level crossings. During this time Metro installed axle counters on the line to permanently resolve the issue.

I'd like to thank youtube user and my good friend MRPSK177 for helping me create this video by transporting me across the line to film at the various spots. Check out his channel and subscribe because he deserves it!
