nice video..some power there....where is maitland?...i am just an englishman here in the u.s.a central v.t. r.r snow plogh just dumped a 5 foot wall of snow in my back yard...lol..they had 3 g.e. locos pushing it...
Maitland is inland from Newcastle in New South Wales. Austrialia
They hold a steam festival there every year....
Rail and Road steam - plus stationary stuff.
It's very popular.
The locos shown here are rare. The 32 and the 59 are the only ones of their class that are still running - the 38 is one of two still operational - the other one being 3801
Fantastic, thanks for that - might have to visit that location myself in the future! One of the few stations on the north I have not yet visited, dunno why either.
I too was on the train. Got wet waiting for the train at Central for a while only to arrive late and departing 20 minutes behind the table. Worth the price for the trip and love the sounds climbing Cowan Bank! :)
I was on the train. twas great although it was delayed for over 45mins and froze my arse off in gosford waiting for it. Still worth it thought even if Steamfest was fairly average this year.
WHAT !!! You managed to chase the fucking thing !! We tried catching it through Morrisett and it got so far ahead ( And we were exactly doing the speed limit... )
Holboroman's assessment:15/15. A great video! Excellence in you tubing.
