Morphett Vale Miniature Railway Running Day 11/6/17
Hello All,
Here we see a variety of steam and diesel locomotives operating on the Morphett Vale Miniature Railway track located within the natural bushland of the Wilfred Taylor Reserve at Wheatsheaf Road, Morphett Vale.
The MVRail group is a non-profit club that provides train rides to the public on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month but closed on the last Sunday of December. (See the Run Days for dates on their website which listed below)
The club run large scale locomotives of both steam and diesel traction and run on a track that is approximately is 2 kilometres long or 1.24 miles (imp.)
The track gauge is 7 & a quarter inch gauge. Station facilities include a traverser, turntable, workshops, platforms and a two - storey signal cabin along with an extensive station yard with 12 shed roads and numerous other siding roads.
The highlight of the system and which is featured in this video is the Algebuckina Bridge which spans across Christie's Creek and measures over 40 metres in length and is over 4 metres high. There is also a 12-metre tunnel on the system and which is also featured in this video.
The system uses track circuited electric colour-light speed signalling with all signals being automatic; except those at the Morphett Vale station area where signals and switches are controlled from the Signal Cabin (Train Control). Solar powered signals and remote controlled switches are used in various locations around the track circuit.
Thanks for reading
I hope you enjoy :)

NSW Double Colour Light Signalling - Explained!
This video attempts to explain double colour light signalling, as used in Sydney and Newcastle, in the Australian state of New South Wales. This signalling system is designed to provide substantial advanced notice of a red signal ahead, with at minimum of two (and as many as four or more) previous signals warning of the 'Stop' ahead. This is very important in the suburbs of Sydney, where long and heavy interstate goods trains share trackage with frequently stopping suburban trains. The close signal spacing means that a single warning signal would not provide enough stopping distance for many goods trains. This video only covers the aspects displayed by the main lights, I have not attempted to cover route indicators or other signs.
The main image used in this video was taken at Clyde, and features a Pacific National coal train lead by 8255 and three classmates. I have digitally altered this signal to show all the aspects for demonstration purposes - I doubt this particular signal would actually be able to show all those aspects (certainly not Low Speed). The other three photos in order of appearance are at Croydon, St James, and Summer Hill.
**Please note that this video is in no way official information - It is for hobby purposes only. While I have gone to extensive effort to make sure the information is correct, I am not a railway employee and have put this together from reading and observation.**
You can watch a similar video I made about signalling in Victoria here:
