    Ah, more memories.
    I'll expand on that by saying I now live in WA, my mother was born in Pt Augusta and grew up in Tarcoola. My father worked for SA railways and we grew up in Adelaide.

    I used to work on that particular engine when it was on the narrow gauge in Peterborough, then the fireman’s job to keep pressing a button about every couple of minutes to stop the dead man’s brake activating as well as changing points if going into a passing lane, that was in the 1960’s
