2 P classes, some H sets and R707 are heading down to Stony Point (Although R707 is only running between Melbourne and Frankston). There will also be a single car sprinter, which isn't rare, but could still be a good opportunity to see

Taits are running between Eaglemont and Clifton Hill

Stony Point timetable: Southern Cross: 10:16 Flinders Street: 10:30 Caulfield: 10:50 Moorabbin (arr): 11:10 Moorabbin (dep): 11:21 Frankston (arr): 12:08 Frankston (dep): 12:38 Somerville: 12:52 Bittern: 13:07 Crib Point: 13:12 Stony Point: 13:15

Return Stony Point: 16:35 Bittern: 16:44 Hastings: 16:48 Somerville: 16:58 Frankston (arr): 17:10 Frankston (dep): 17:23 Carrum: 17:33 Mordialloc: 17:44 Moorabbin: 17:55 Caulfield: 18:03 Flinders Street: 18:17 Southern Cross: 18:34

The taits don't have a very good published timetable, but the transfer leaves Flinders Street at 9:51, with the return transfer leaving Eaglemont at 15:00 arriving at Flinders by 15:30. There's also shuttles between Eaglemont and Clifton Hill leaving Eaglemont at 10:20, 11, 11:40, 12:20. 13:00, 13:40, and 14:20

So get out and go get some train photos! It's entirely possible to see both
