Ned Kelly succeeds at Glenrowan

What if the Kelly Gang's plans to ambush the police train at Glenrowan was successful. Would much of the local district, rumoured to organised into "rangers", indeed rise up & there'd be an outright revolt taking place in much of northern Victoria.

So how would such a revolt fare in the face of, not just colonial police & loyalist militias, but also against British regular solders?

Would more locals join the Kelly rebellion?

Or would the Colonial forces eventually crush Kelly & his army of "rangers"?

Yes. Kelly gets executed, and its a minor footnote in history. A major Australian revolution isn't ASB, but you can't mange it this way.
