The New Narre Warren Station Sees A Comeng
Hello and welcome to my channel. I am a train enthusiast located in Victoria, Australia and just want to share some of my journeys with KZread. Please feel free to Comment your opinions and Subscribe to my channel :)
In this video, we take a look at a Comeng train venture out to Cranbourne and then the Pakenham Line. With the opening of the new Narre Warren Station a few days prior to the filing of this video, we also take a tour of the station and look at a throwback of the old station. Hope you enjoy the video!

Sad to know that seeing a Comeng is going to become more and more rare in the coming years.
How dare they replace the old Comeng horns

I was hoping you'd have a video of Narre Warren up this week. Nice to see a unique scenario as the overall theme for the video which also includes the new station.

Thankyou
Narre is my regular station but haven't had the chance to check out the new renovations myself yet so this was great 😊
ah the memories using the island platform back then
Amazing
Stopping all stations to South Yarra, running express from South Yarra to Caufield then stopping all stations to Clayton running express from Clayton to Springvale then stopping all stations to Hallam running express from Hallam to Berwick then stopping all stations to Pakenham And always remember to touch on your myki at the start of your Journey

Hey strays trains. What happens if Siemens nexas train testing on Mernda line ?
Awesome 👍
I cant believe i missed a comeng, i live very very close to hallam station
Kinda sad to see Narre Warren go, I've always had a memory with that station and now its been replaced.
I've passed through the new Narre Warren skyrail every day for months now, but I'm glad I can finally use the new station. I don't use it often, only ever if I want to go to Fountain Gate shopping centre, so I guess I'm due for a trip there again one of these days so I can check out the new station. It'll be weird not hearing the corssing bells every 15 minutes at Webb Street though. As for the Pakenham station, the new signs should be the dual line colour ones as Pakenham is also V/Line stop for both platforms, so the new signs will have the half cyan and half purple line colour like Platform 4 at Caufield does.
The station platform signage at Pakenham station will the white with the blue strip. They still haven't given a rough idea of a opening date
Are you aware you caught Building Beautifully in the intro - the XPT on the side he was on.
Does anyone know if they'll run a bike path under the Pakenham line trains like they did from Yarraman to Caulfield? That thing is brilliant. They could connect it to the Dandy Bypass trail.
Fun Fact 552M in this video is TheBusofDoomFSX’s favourite carriage
will a Comeng ever go out to Pakenham East/East Pakenham station?
Good video! How did you get around to all the locations in the video did you get there by train or drive there?

Do you think they should've built the line as triple or quad track so express services and gippsland line trains can bypass ststions at higher speed

There will be at E Pakenham Station. They should have a third track from Oakleigh to Westall as well in my opinion
I had a couple photos of old NW station a few months ago before the new one opened. Hard to think it got remade lol

Are there toilets at the new Narre Warren station? It’s surprising how some new stations don’t have them….Merinda Park.

I will definitely miss the old station, as much as it was ageing it seems to modernised and has lost its character including the cafe that used to be there

agreed - the old station had its own neat charm and I feel that this new station is too similar to Hallam. Hopefully when the whole precinct is completed my mind will be changed!

When is the Labour government replacing the congested level crossings on the Glen Waverley line instead of wasting our tax payers money doing this work out “woop woop”??????
