Three short videos taken last Saturday of Narrow Gauge Queensland Railways Steam and Diesel trains. The steam loco is a C17 on a day trip around the suburbs of Brisbane and the Diesel is a short coal train taking coal for export to China. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD5msYLfhxg...

Crikey I must be an oldie, I have seen. The Highwaymen, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Chris Christofersen and Willy Nelson. The Bellamy Brothers. Little Richard, Gene Vincent and Jerry Lee Lewis Plus a few other old Rockers oops me memories going

My first Bachmann loco was a 4-8-4 American steam loco back in 1986.

You have turned train pictures into a work of art, they look great.

As an ex British outsider living in Australia I have to say one of the things I liked most about British locomotives was their originality. Sadly to see my home country filling up with American locos is pretty sad, here in Oz just about everything is made under licence in Australia from GE in...

I understand where Ian is coming from but my personal opinion is that you cant have to many preserved railways, as for the sidings being jammed with rolling stock and locos I guess the same applies, you just cant have to many spare parts and things to restore. With all the people that patronise...

Hi Neil always nice to see old photos of my favourite class steam loco, living beside the New St to Bristol main line in the 1950s your photos brought back fond memories.

My hometown namesake "City of Birmingham" Coronation Class, if we can dream we may as well make it a big one.

In one day I had two separate incidents that put me off, first I had a bloke that was part of a group of three walk up and accuse me of taking pictures of him, I told him politely that I would not risk damage to my camera by pointing it directly at him, to that he told me he was going to punch...

I don't carry a bag these days instead I find a Caravan Park next to a railway line and when I hear something coming in the distance I hop out of the caravan with my video and still camera to grab the action. Had a few problems with weirdos standing on stations with a camera so I gave that up.

Very enjoyable photos with my favorite being the 03, thanks for sharing.

Being a lover of great scenery as well as trains I like 14 and 17, all shots are worthy contenders though.

Great series of pictures and by crikey they paint them up pretty back home these days, those with pink and purple on them look as though they are targeting women passengers.

A nice bright and cheerful collection of photos Snapper, really enjoyed them all and that chicken and spuds look great.

Looked at all 67 photos Neil, great work and album, brings back memories of seeing most of these wonderful locomotives thundering through Tamworth in the mid 1950s.
