R Class 4-6-4 Hudson. Big Bold mainline passenger Locomotive. Almost as glamorous as the Blue and Gold S Class stream liners that hauled the Spirit Of Progress. I saw them as a kid powering up Glenroy bank, back in the day. VR had the most glamorous locos. Excellent presentation, day and night. keep up the good work.
And let's not forget, she rolled with The 'Scotsman' back in '88.
They also pulled regular freight trains back in the day. Great locomotives!

Th reason is because the B class beat them to passenger and the B was better

They shouldn't have, being a fast passenger loco...... but the VR made them do what they weren't suited to.
Thar she blows! Wonderful 👏🌹✌️
What about the American Hudsons, they should be restored and modernised too!...
Couldn’t quite work out where the footage was taken. A lot looks like Geelong to Ballarat.🇦🇺

I thought that too, but I'm guessing that the bluestone station was Malmsbury. I could be wrong of course.

The first clips of R761 are from bendigo to Melbourne first one is just north of the elphinstone tunnel. Vline dont run services from geelong to ballarat so the clips of the old station with Vlocities passing cant on that line. Its likely all filmed at various locations on the bendigo line
steamrrail train?
