Streamliners 2016 - Main Event Day 2
Author: AussieGWAdriver

Hi all,

My last post for the Streamliners 2016 event. It did go for three days but I had to leave on the third day and drive the 1200km (745 miles) home. It took 14 hours.

We had a lot more sun on the second day of the event. 10/2/16.

1. Goulburn Rail Heritage Centre's Goodwin-Alco DL531 on the turntable in the roundhouse during some re-positioning moves.

2. Showing the no.2 end cabs on 4477, 4490 and 42101.

3. A view from down below.

Wow - nice event!!  So glad to see so many preserved down under, and how awesome is it that bulldogs are so appreciated on the other side of the world!  Gotta get there someday...

Thanks for posting!
