    The full rake together.

    I got so ridiculously lucky with lighting. Noticed a gloriously lit floating bench in the kitchen. Cleared it, set up, snapped and edited to get here.

      The NSWGR used a number of Baldwin built locos in the 1880s for use over the steep grades (1 in 33) of the Blue Mountains, in later life they found their way out to the more remote rural branchlines which had lighter traffic. The numerous classes of Baldwins used where never really considered as a great success and normally numbered below 20 locomotives per class. Examples are the Z21 Class 2-6-0 nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4593026-v

      Z23 Class 4-6-0

      and finally the Z28 Class 2-8-0 investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/BOSImages/Series/0017/420..., this class was was probably the only class of Baldwins that was successful on NSW metals and they lasted for about 40 years before the were finally scrapped.

      Trains don't really float my boat, but this is a beauty.
