Welcome to my home page. The pages contain mainly my photos of Australian (mainly NSW) trains and a page on o gauge models/Toys. I plan to change them regularly. Please feel free to copy them but include my name on any that are used elsewhere.
The photo shown above is a Newstan Colliery promo photo, originally a black and white shot which has been hand-coloured. Hand-colouring was a popular process in the 50s, and was used a lot for wedding photos, etc. In the margin below is the following cation: "diesel electric train departing Newstan Colliery, 1200 tons of coal for Sydney. 3/3/52." The original is 37cm x 29cm.
