I was so disappointed with the lack of steam engines at this event this year. first year i took my kid they had 3642, 3801, 6029, nanny, hunter, and 1025(?), this year it was just nanny and hunter and they were constantly on runs.
6029 is down needing superheater elements (they have been delivered but I am not sure about fitting status) 3801 is down with a cylinder and partial valve gear rebuild on one side. 3642 needs a full overhaul so IIRC has been knocked back to nominally operational status.
Some nice shots of them powering there at Carlton and Allawah Mr Frosty.
awsome video mate
Just subbed to you
Great work, was great meeting you at the event :)
You too!
I just saw myself at the Strathfield end of platform
