Goodbye 974
Queensland Rail heritage C17 locomotive number 974 returns to their depot at Ipswich near Brisbane. It has been on lease to us so that we could continue to offer a steam powered heritage rail experience, whilst our loco under goes repairs.

A big thank you to SDSR volunteer Kyle Gleeson for sharing his video of our aborted 18 March trip to Clifton.....as you'll see, we did have a slight problem at the turn around point at Hendon. Plenty more railway videos on Kyle's channel. Link below. www.youtube.com/@kylegleeson8638

The annual five race weekend event included a 'race' with our steam train this year. Great fun for families and supporters to follow the runners as the train ran alongside the Allora to Warwick road.

Short promotion for the railway. Like so many other voluntary organisations, we came near to closure with no income for 2020. But thanks to our membership and community good will and financial help we survived and are once again offering a twice monthly service across the Darling Downs. See you on board!

Celebrating ten years of providing a heritage rail experience to the public. Thanks to all the hard working volunteers who have kept the wheels turning all that time.
0:30 needs a repaint doesn't it
Havent you still got 971 around for heritage runs?
Don’t say goodbye 🥺
I followed 974 from Warwick to Laidley
Are you guys going to use the DH45 as your main locomotive or do you have another steam loco lined up. Also how is the 971 going
Yes, basically we are back to our faithful diesel until 971 returns to duty. Endless hold-ups on re-manufacturing the axle boxes. Long story, but hope to see progress May/June. Thanks for your interest.
Great video. As a newly interested fan, I would like to find an index of the various heritage sites across Australia. I can see myself touring these sites
i was on that train that day was a great time to
Interesting video thanks. Good to see 971 in black.
Great work to all involved!
Great work Chris, thanks Downs Explorer for taking us there and Downs Steam for having us. Not to forget the hospitality from the ladies at Clifton, morning tea was delicious as usual. Thanks to all involved
I look at the drone photo of Rosewood 😢 I think it time the collection moved and co-located with other organisations or went to Ipswich.
Terrific job Chris. Great video thanks for sharing.
Excellent video!
Very well done Chris
Very atmospheric. Feels like I'm there.
Nice!
If it was a simple dereailment, why disconnect the side roads, I could understand about the connecting and valves rods. Nice wooden bridges up there in Queensland. You weird things up there. I'm from Newcastle, just down the road.
QR managed to do the same with 974 coming off the Ipswich turntable on Monday. Miraculously, it was undamaged and should be on its way to Warwick as I type.
