Mixed passenger and freight service at Oodla Wirra on the SAR Northern Division (Narrow Gauge) 1960s. The loco is behind camera delivering a freight wagon to the goods shed.
VR C Class 4-4-0WT (ex-M&HBUR) at Church St station. Bit of an anachronism of stock - the van is in <1861 condition, the coaches are in early 1860s condition, and the loco in early 1880s condition, but this will get rectified eventually.
Late in 1944, with WW2 still ongoing, A2 951 is seen bringing a troop train north through the suburbs, and then later through Donnybrook on it's way north to Seymour.
A couple of days later, K179 is seen working hard with a loaded livestock train on the grades between Beetoomba and Shelley, on the long branch from Cudgewa.
Mick the Miser came from The Isa
Very tight fella with a quid
When the price of Epsom Salts went up
Do you know what Old Mick did?
If his kids had constipation, he'd lock 'em in a room so dark,
and he'd tell 'em a terrible ghost yarn and let nature make her mark!
