This page is to showcase some of my photos and videos I've taken over the years of trains in Australia and other countries I've visited as well as some photos of my model railway layouts and others.

8175 and 58 stabled beside a couple of bluescope steel scrap metal wagons at Cringila exchange sidings this morning. These days is fairly uncommon to see pacific national locos in these sidings.

Thought I might add a few more photos of my layout. Yesterday I went to the Goulburn model railway exhibition and picked up some additional gum trees for the lay. Still got a few more to buy but it's coming together. Also added a photo of of D45 posing for a photo on the bridge as it passes through from Nebo colliery at Mt Kembla inbound for the steelworks. Sorry for not putting as many photos on my page lately I've been fairly busy but endeavour to get some more photos soon.

8173 and 8159 stabled at progress rail Port Kembla maintenance facility whilst the steelworks light glow in the distance. I'm lead to believe these locos may be in storage during a quiet spell in grain exports from the southern NSW.
