From Joe White Maltings silos, the Armidale Xplorer train approaches West Tamworth station (plus a view of Tamworth).

The lead loco number is forgotten, now known to be 5920. The second loco is 5917, and the pair are on their final run to Enfield in August 1972. 5917 was later chosen for preservation. People associated with a museum at Cowra own it and keep it in operating condition. I got off 5917 here at Flemington to continue by spark to Granville.

The lead loco number is forgotten. Looking through the steam in this photo the lead loco could be 5920, now confirmed. The second loco is 5917, and the pair are on their final run to Enfield in August 1972. 5917 was later chosen for preservation. People associated with a museum at Cowra own it and keep it in operating condition. 5917 is now 'The Picnic Train' main steam loco and so survives in preservation. This photo is while waiting for a path at Hornsby.

Parked in a Parkes park, NSW loco 3075, originally built as a 4-6-4 tank but later after suburban electrification in Sydney was converted to the 4-6-0 tender form seen here. In this form they worked on many branch lines and in the last years of steam some were shunters in some centres. Seen here in March 2007. HFF fellow Ipernityers for Pi Day 2024.
