Armadale Line C Pattern Full Journey Before Shutdown

With the Armadale/Thornlie Line Shutdown starting, the journey of the Armadale Line will be changing greatly upon reopening, with the line also extended to Byford; probably no longer having trains terminate at Armadale. Hence, seeing as I have never even filmed a normal full journey of a train line on the channel before, I went ahead and filmed the whole Armadale Line from Perth to Armadale on the C pattern, plus stopping at Perth Stadium on the final day of operations, allowing us to see the old stations and the tracks between them for the final time, acting as a historical record in the future as to what the line was like. This is likely also one of the last journies ever made with a skipping pattern, like the typical C pattern seen in this video, as they will probably all be removed after the shutdown because: All the newly rebuilt stations will be built to the same modern standard, and skipping them would be quite a poor utilisation of the new stations giving them significantly lower frequency. Welshpool Station is being permanently removed meaning that the C pattern would only be skipping Queens Park between Oats Street and Cannington and the B pattern wouldn't be skipping anything which is again rather silly, and also the pattern would only save about three minutes which makes it rather redundant. A major purpose of the skipping patterns was also to allow multiple trains to meet at each level crossing along the line by scheduling them perfectly with the carefully planned patterns. With the level crossings gone, this purpose also becomes obsolete. Extra Fun Fact: Did you know that the Armadale Line is the only Transperth train line not to feature a tunnel anywhere along the journey? And this will not be changing after the shutdown! That's pretty cool!
