Great one Mate Went to the local railway station last Sat. they were advertising train rides for the local festival , was going to get a pic for you , all the other years they had a "steamer" thought you would like that , but this year they had a d/electric ,80 class I think they call it, sorry mate , but will keep an eye out in the future.

They booked seats on the dinner train operated by the local railway society. From Canberra to Tarago (21/2 hours, slowly) & return. Behind a NSW 48 class diesel, in the old carriages. They blow so much smoke when the throttle is opened you would swear you were behind a steamer. It was great to ride in a real train again, even if it was diesel.
