Hi all,
Just a few pics of some nice stuff for the SAR.

624 and 626 pose for their photo.
Image

624 and 626 in Adelaide yard
Image

626 departs Victor Harbour
Image

622 departs Adelaide
Image

622 has the earlier rivetted tender the others have the welded tenders
Image

Crocodile car for transporting narrow gauge locos to Islington
Image

Motor body transporter for transferring GMH bodies to Melbourne 1950's
Image

Work has already commenced on an SAR 600 (heavy Pacific 6'6" drivers) and will be followed by a 400 class garrat for the 3'6" routes in development. On the drawing board are NSU and NT 3'6" diesels, and possibly a Pichie Richie W 934 and maybe an NM.

I will preview the now quite extensive narrow gauge locos and rolling stock in a separate post - (7 steam locos across 3 classes, 5x830 class diesels and over 35 passenger and freight rolling stock).

Cheers
Allan

Oh YES!

FANTASTIC work Allan!

I'll be looking foreward to those 600s as well!

BTW, you got a cabview for the 620s?

Cheers.

Dan.

Very tasty Allan. Little details like the tools on the tender rear are a nice touch. Lovely smooth boilers as well :wink:

Hi DanielH,
Sure do.

As you have probably deduced, I always prefer photoreal if at all possible - in rolling stock as well as buildings and other custom route items.

A few more that may be of interest.

A very dusty T 254 in Quorn Yard
Image

T 185, 251 and Y 87 and 97 in Jamestown Yard

Image

A couple of T class Cab views
Image

Image

Y Class locos in Pichie Richie Pass
Image

Image

And one of the cab views

Enjoy!
Cheers
Allan

It's out, you can drive it

Hopefully mine'll be done soon. A couple of hours of tree replacements should entice into finishing off the tasks that actually need doing 8).

Too many distractions!

Looking forward to these if they're not too much trouble. Keep up the excellent work Allan.
