Question about the TV show 'Railway Story'

[E231-500]

Hi all

 

This is a question mainly for the forum folk who reside in Japan but any help is appreciated.

 

Back in early 2012 (i think it was)  I was working as a Metro Driver in Adelaide in South Australia.

 

Whilst heading to my train I noticed a film crew taking footage of our trains in the Adelaide Station. Turned out they were from Japan doing some filming of Australian trains for a show called Railway Story. They were meant to ride with me but had to change at he last minute. Probably good as I would have picked their brains about japanese trains :-)

 

I have looked everywhere for footage from the episode but no luck. I believe it showed Adelaide's metro trains as well as footage from The Ghan which runs from Adelaide to Darwin.

 

If anyone knows where I might find the footage, or even if there are DVD's of the series any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

Railway Story is a program produced by broadcast satellite channel Wowow.  This is the program HP:

This may be the episode you're talking about:

I don't think they produce DVDs.  You have to watch the channel or get membership to the website to watch the on-demand episode library.

Thanks for the links. Yes I don't think I'll be able to watch them unfortunately. Would have been nice to see but.

 

Thanks for your help!
