Hello! Last long weekend we were in attendance at the Newport Workshops Open Days, in a very unique role providing Airshow style commentary for the train operation activity happening out in the yard as well as many other announcements over the Public Address speaker system throughout the site.

This is a newly developed part of this event adopted by the event organisers Steamrail Victoria, and was aided by fellow creators (And mates!) Will James: Railways, Victorian Steam, Pannier Productions and vandenbricks who came together to share the Mic and provide commentary as well.

My mate Kiran from Victorian Steam has just dropped his latest video which is a vlog from the weekend and the behind the scenes of the Commentary Team, and has done a much better job than I could ever do, so please go check out his video. Thank you and good day!

(Production on our end has slowed a little, as always, lol)

It's on again! The Steamrail Victoria Newport Workshop Open Days 2026 is happening again, and will be an absolutely action packed long weekend of steam locomotives and other railway activity! We will be there as well with our team of fellow creators doing a lot of PA Announcements and Commentary on everything taking place during the long weekend, so come say g'day!

Also, if you haven't seen it, we covered this event back in 2022 as one of our first major documentaries for the channel. Link to that in the comments, cheers!

Hello to all my new subscribers who’ve come along after discovering the Rydal video. That video has been one of my favourites to make to date, has me presenting a little more infront of camera, and although views aren’t as high as desired, the comments, Likes and feedback has been so well received that this means more to me than views!

Like all Rheilffordd videos, a lot of them are edited while I’m on the road in my line of work, working out of hotel rooms, travelling aboard flights, and whenever I get the opportunity to devote some editing time. To me I’m happy to have just got a second video out this year 🤣

Anyhow, moving forward editing has begun on the next video, this one won’t be a full on editing masterpiece, but will capture a significant event in heritage railway history I was fortunate to have been invited to attend recently, stay tuned!

If you haven’t watched the Rydal video yet, it does for 13.5minutes, and you can watch it here: Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/x7CcMKPRtDA

Otherwise, I’m going to quietly go back to editing now…. thank you and good day!
