Nice to see the crusty old Silvertons still banging along as they were in 1995. That first one sneak up on you?

Hhhmmm, stabling locos on platform 3. Better hope they don't lose the mains through any incident/accident and need it for CityRail/CountryLink. It has been done before, rarely but it has.
Silly ARTC. Oh wait a minute Platform 3 is probably classed as the yard so ARTC wouldn't own that bit.  Silly old me

Fantastic once again mate! The shot looking up at the jumbo is sensational as well as the shot of 602's A end. Well done!
Photoshop just drained all my pc's juice while I was processing my shots so I'll have mine up tomorrow.

Gee mate they turned out fucking brilliant indeed and that sepiatone look of the shots at Goulburn look great.
Not bad for a snatched shot that last one despite you trying to get run over by a falcon.

Nice shots there, thanks for posting them.
We do a lot of work for South Spur/Silverton/Cootes (or whatever their name is this week) at JRW and it's nice to see 'our' locos out and about. We just put a new gen in 607 and not long got 80s1 active again after it shat itself.
Thanks again.
