Many level crossings eliminated should reduce travel time. Nice video. Thanks tressteleg1💚👌👍

@@scottyerkes1867 Level crossings rarely delayed trains, and if so it was fairly short periods of time. The greatest benefactors from these crossing removals are the road users.

I've got a feeling the Moorabbin crossings were removed during the triplication, same feeling with Patterson

That could well be true. I just know that when I first used Moorabbin station Easter 1965, it was already in the trench.

Really an eye-opener how much change there has been on that line

I reckon it was a mistake removing the crossovers from the Dandenong group lines to the up and down Frankston line platforms at Caulfield.

@@wezza60 Yes, but they are determined to run those trains as a totally independent line, like a Metro overseas. Maybe with fully automatic trains one day.

What are those letters on the signals at 20:34?

Generally they give the drivers some indication of what tracks the signals are set for but in this case I could not quite guess what each letter especially stood for.

I think they stand for Up, Centre, and Down. The names of the three tracks. Someone will correct me if I’m wrong 😂
