Wait till kenneyswarriors gets back and shows you how he can refurbish old tools.

It's one of his many vices.

That was at Korumburra around 2005, a full day driving experience. Did shunting and drove the goods train from Korumburra to Leongatha and back.

And this was me in 1979, driving a two-week-old DF around the loop on an excursion.

Back then I was a volunteer at the Glenbrook Vintage Railway in Auckland, and spent most weekends in the workshop or on passenger duties and occasionally firing one of the two steam locos.

Happy days Postie... where did you run your 5guage?
Looks much like the one that used to run in Gosford.

One of my ex's (pre Turbo) had many model steam locos on his property.
They were loads of fun to create events around and such good time wasters on the weekends

That was at the Hutt Valley model engineering club in Wellington, NZ.

I brought it over with me in 2001 but ran into problems getting the boiler certificate recognised here and eventually gave up and sold it to a guy in Kentucky, of all places. They use 4-3/4" gauge in his part of the world but he was happy putting down a 5" gauge line for it.

Has been a great pre-season training week with the whole team back and working hard as we make our launch on our 3rd premiership cup in only 6 seasons.

Time to relax now in the Maximus Turbous Bath House and enjoy all the privilege's that come with being Old Boy's.

DemurePrincess I've been asked by the caretaker to pass on a message about respecting our rules and having a shower before bathing, and could you please ensure you pay particular attention to your feet. I said that you were an ex-Old Boy and he was out of line, but he insisted.


Poor Gizmo

What fuel do you use to fire those miniature boilers, OTP? Diesel oil?
