5 Locomotives Battle the Grade to Callington Curve | Incredible Australian Freight Train Action

Five locomotives. One crew car. Thousands of tonnes of freight. One spectacular climb through the Adelaide Hills. In this full-length video you'll watch the complete approach to Callington Curve before the train powers through one of South Australia's most scenic sections of railway. The combination of stunning scenery, hard-working locomotives and classic Australian freight rail action makes this one of my favourite videos yet. Heavy freight trains like this are incredibly expensive to operate. Five locomotives working together consume huge amounts of fuel while climbing steep grades, and every trip involves highly trained crews, constant maintenance and millions of dollars worth of equipment keeping Australia's freight network moving. This isn't just a train passing by. It's an amazing demonstration of engineering, teamwork and the power needed to move freight across Australia.
