Hi Geoff,
Glad you like the images.
What makes Puffing Billy so special are the friendly people.
The history is fascinating too: http://puffingbilly.com.au/en/puffing-billy-preservation-society/saving-puffing-billy/
Cheers,

When you see pictures like that of Puffing Billy, you have to thank your lucky stars that such a beautiful railway, with such lovely engines was preserved.
It was a pretty near thing too. It all could have been lost if not for the early preservationists and the support of the public.
thanks Michael
regards Geoff

Prior to running the special train with the Climax locomotive on Puffing Billy on the 10th October, the new museum at Menzies Creek was open.
Several of us were allowed inside and photographs were taken.
I was very impressed with what I saw and look forward to the opening in due course.
Take a look if you're interested.
Cheers,
Michael Chapman

On Saturday 24th October I travelled behind R761 from Southern Cross to Echuca.
It was awesome!
