Steam and Runners Pace Through Lakeside
Puffing Billy Running Festival 2025 - Saturday Train Operations
Hello all,
Welcome to a Victorian heritage railway video. Today we return to the hills of the Dandenong Ranges. The weekend of the 13th and 14th of September returned the annual tradition of the Puffing Billy Running Festival. Held over two days, there are three races. On the Saturday, the 1.2km Kids Dash and 5km Fun Run are held in the Emerald Lake Park. A four train timetable was ran for the day, along with a pace train which ran in a top and tail formation from Lakeside to the Packing Shed for the Fun Run. It was all hands on deck with four locomotives of the Puffing Billy Railway fleet in operation. Outside of the Running Festival, the train operated a normal four train timetable, with some minor differences. Locomotives 7A and 14A double headed the first train of the day, which would then be re-marshaled into a top and tail formation as the pace train through the Emerald Lake Park. 12A operated the Gembrook and NG129 made an appearance on the former lunch service. The double header pair also ran the afternoon service.
After the day's operations, we head to Belgrave, where a bit of shunting was needed in preparation for the second day's events.
As per out last operations video, we take a slow day and capture each of the runs throughout the day. All clips are in order with service times based on departure from starting location.
