Great video Steve, brings back memories of travelling up the Mountains to Lithgow. Mt Vic in winter was cold and the wind used to cut through you when you had to wait for the examiner to finish the brakes.
Yes Mt Vic could be a chilly place, and it amuses me these days with all the razor wire surrounding the interurban stabling sidings. I vaguely recollected having shot some video at Hartley Vale, but only found the brief footage when hunting for some other material.
Hi Steve! Great to see you back Sir! I hope you're doing well and getting out there trackside now and then. I hopefull start the move to Lofty late this year ?? Fingers crossed. Take care mate,\ Cheers Gregg.
Cooee Gregg, Yep, I stumble along now being an old fart pensioner. Nothing much happens here on our pathetic railway to get excited about. I only shot about 10 minutes worth of video during 2023. And, only unearthed this video clip at Hartley Vale while hunting for other material. You have Lofty ideas of relocation ? I am not sure just where you mean, not Mount Lofty in SA ? Avoiding the ravages of Mum Nature is the problem today. At least it has not become too serious here. Gotta feel sorry for the poor mongrels who are copping it repeated times. Steve.
