    I love how I can barely concentrate enough to watch a full length movie, but a 1 hour and 42 minute video about trains on a line that I don’t catch will hold my attention the whole way through

    Literally no better way to spend my flight this week than watching this video about a railway I&apos;ve never even been on. Never stop making these.

    I don’t think people will understand, but this is my Christmas. Just ignore the fact that I don’t live in Melbourne and I’ve never taken these train lines before.

    Please never stop making these, I will not be able to rest peacefully until the whole network is complete. This is the best series on YouTube, thank you Lord Martin Taitset.

    Every time I hear “box hill” I hear the start of the 109 tram song in my head.

    As someone who moved to Melbourne last week, these have been amazing in helping me learn about this wonderful city and all the different places on each line. Nice to get a slice of life at each station. Thanks Martin!

    I actually laughed out loud several times at the buffer bit at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DftllbM61Cw&amp;t=4481">1:14:41</a> , it just kept getting better

    It’s almost like the railway and tram systems had a messy divorce and studiously avoid awkward hellos.

    One really good thing about the new Lilydale station is that it&apos;s now on the same side of main street as the high school. You used to get tons of kids running across the highway to get to the station instead of walking further down to where the crossing used to be. And no google maps still hasn&apos;t been fixed
