I See
I was assuming the first two numbers would identify the class
I'm not a fan of electrics but those locos look simple in design and proberly served thier purpose well

cheers,

The 46 class were a very good locomotive built by Metropolitan Vickers in England. Built of solid steel they could stand up to any punishment and, from personal experience, are the preferred locomotive if you're going to be involved in a collision. They weren't comfortable but they would keep going until they just couldn't pull anymore.

Nice. I have them in HO as well

Also, Dimi, what's that spectacular-looking trestle being used by that spectacular-looking 620 class on that spectacular-looking route?

Whoever put a BB18 in PB15 territory at South Brisbane? :hehe: Un athentic history wise with Sunshine Carriages but it makes good viewing with screenshot value. Very Nice Ghosty.

My PB15 444 is one Download station, worth a download.

I have to correct you there, Its authentic. Page 94 Destination South Brisbane publish by the ARHS Qld Div/John Kerr and John Armstrong first published 1978 has a very interesting image. If one did it then there is a chance others did, if one did then its Authentic. For the record the shot shows BB-18 1/4 1026 working a South Brisbane to Lota service in 1967. Also several southside car sets were made up of what they called scrap sets made up of older or replaced northside suburban cars or country cars.

Well, I say; I stand corrected old boy. After looking at the book for myself in my own private collection.

I tip my hat off to you. Ghosty!

Btw, I am working on a 3ft 6in version of my PB15, just for some of them 3ft 6in fans. Maybe all these PB15 are starting to send me mad lol

A couple more of the BB18.25 and earlier mainline B18.25 on the Southside. Not sure how many here purchase "Sunshine Express" magazine published by the ARHS[QLD]. The January/February 2012 edition P.17 has colour shots of B18.25 #230 on the Gabba turntable and BB18.25 #1025 leading a goods out of the Gabba with trolley buses and tram background.

As for my personal experience of a BB18.25 at South Brisbane terminal; Try BB18.25 # 1079 on 5 August 1978 with the ARHS/QLD farewell to South Brisbane as a stub ended terminal. That day we visited Cannon Hill abattoirs with the wig wag crossing sign, out towards the at that time shortened Cleveland branch, Beenleigh [yes, we got there due to the new Logan River Bridge!!] and Corinda via Tennyson. Good day as usual on those historical trips

I might mention the rail limits on the Southside in the steam era; All heavy locos allowed [Beyer-Garratts, ASG, DD17, C19, BB18.25 etc] South Brisbane to Kingston and Manly thus several pictures of heavy locos in that book Trainz89 and Ghosty mentioned, including a BB18.25 on the Acacia Ridge branch with a train of GMH cars. No turntable at Kingston so heavy tankers there but turntable at Manly. My reference "Queensland Railway's Steam Locomotives 1900 - 1969" By John Knowles http://www.railshop.com.au/prod27.htm

Love the photos of the U-boats Dave.

 

[NSWGR_46Class]

The U boats are by Peter AD602000 I have been playing around with the textures a bit - I have done another tweek will post a shot later

 

[dimi_108]

Awesome. Yeah they look a bit too "g-max-ish". Hope you can smooth them out a bit and make them look similar to the the realism of the V-sets

 

[NSWGR_46Class]

This is where I am at - remember only playing with textures not the mesh itself

 

[misterchugg]

Very nice screenshots Dave. I like it.

Selkie Creek NSW circa 1980...

4824 heads the morning "Western mail".

Railcar 622 returns from the coal branch with a worker's train. Every weekday morning and afternoon will see a return railcar service to transport workers to and from the mine from Selkie Creek.

3613 sits in the engine siding while 42211 enters the main yard with an oil train from the north.
