Re: Hunslet 1215 / 303
Thanks Michael
The pleasure was mutual.
The wording of that Decauville “builder’s plate” defies imagination.

Melbourne sewer construction, 1890s
'It’s incredible': The old engineering wonder buried beneath Melbourne 9 July 2018.
The crane groans and shudders as it hauls up the cage from the depths of a deep black hole not far from the banks

Seaworld monorail running
The Gold Coast Seaworld monorail was observed running around lunch time today, including the track over the southern public car park. We were in the park near the Southport pool across the Broadwater

Re: 'Deanville Tramway' at East Point, Darwin
“Decauville” was a term used by the British military to describe light 2ft gauge railways, often using prefabricated track sections. This is surely what is intended here.
