Looking towards Cowra from the north, this is the section of line we are going to open to create the #Cowra #Tourist #Railway.

Not in bad condition at all.

We have a big rolling stock announcement tomorrow, so stand by!

Thanks to Shayne O'Brien for the photo!

A great #video by Phil Harrison of Rosie - 5367 on steam #train runs between #Cowra and #Holmwood in 1998. In case you missed the news, this run is coming back, courtesy of a Federal Government grant.

#rail #tourism will be the perfect #investment point as #Australia returns to normal. The #sector has grown almost 500% since rail #cruises became more mainstream. We have the #trains, #destinations and #station #infrastructure available. #holidayathome

In 1915 a proposal to extend #Albury's #railway yard north to cope with the gauge issue between #NSW and #VIC in times of #war. It never proceeded but was interesting to see Perry & Tribune St went over the railway and Electra St intersected with North St (now all Alexander Park)

#Grandma, #4204, was looking particularly elegant today as she rested with 4708 at #Eveleigh.

She is missing taking you folk for a run and looks forward to showing off her distinctive GM tone as soon as she can! 😊 #
