International Railroad Discussion > "Australia" 1969.

Back in 1969 i had the good furtune to spend 3 weeks in New South Wales, to record the last big show of NSWGR steam on the Short North between Gosford and Newcastle.

Exceptional photography, always liked Australian Railways. So different, yet so similar to US trains. Alco’s  are great no matter where they operate or who built them.

Awesome - love the color scheme. 

Thanks for sharing!
