Chasing the iconic Southern Aurora Passenger Train; 60th Anniversary Tour to Melbourne

On the 24th April 2022 Transport Heritage NSW in conjunction with St James Rail operated the iconic Southern Aurora passenger train for its 60th anniversary with a trip to Melbourne. Operating between the 16th April 1962 & and the 2nd August 1986; the Southern Aurora was the premiere express passenger train between Sydney and Melbourne; utilising a fleet of first class lounge, dining and sleeper stainless steel carriages operated jointly by the Department of Railways New South Wales and the Victorian Railways. Having depart Sydney on the 23rd April 2022 at 8pm, in this video we chase the Southern Aurora as it travels though Victoria into Melbourne. The train was hauled by SRHC locomotives S303, P22 & T357; marking the first time a Victorian locomotive has hauled the train (both in service and preservation) in over 30 years, and S303's first passenger train since being converted to standard gauge. We see the train at multiple locations along the line, including Chiltern, Glenrowan, Avenel, Broadford and others, before seeing the train arrive into Melbourne's Southern Cross Station. We also see the train at Violet Town where the train stopped at the station to commemorate those lost during the Violet Town rail accident on the 7th February 1969 when the Southern Aurora collided head on with a freight train.
