This week Schony747 features Steamrail Victoria's Eureka Express as it flies along The Ballarat Railway Line between Melbourne and Ballarat.

Scottish built Hudson R Class Steam Locomotive R711 Spirit of Bendigo hauled the vintage car consist. The Ballarat Line features a mix of steep grades and flat lines and you will see R711 pounding up the grades and flying along the flat lines.

The R Class replaced the A2 Steam Engine on high speed passenger trains in the early 1950s. All locomotives were withdrawn just over 20 years later as the diesel era took hold.

Have a great week - Brenden S.
