    Mary Valley Rattler

    Myself and SWMBO recently had a trip to Gympie. We went for a ride in this.

    It will be interesting to se how long it takes Tim from Traxide to see this.
    I have started my stop watch

    I have no idea how the 4th pic at the bottom got there and I can't delete it. When I go to "save changes" it is not there

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    Both times I traveled on this it got stuck on a uphill grade due to rain, with that and the tight bends I always thought the 040 an odd choice... great trip though..

    What 0-4-0 Pedro? Usually the Rattler is hauled by a C17, which is 4-8-0.
