    Thanks for that.
    We have already booked a ride on the West Coast Wilderness Railway but we will definitely do this as well.

    Cheers,

    G 'day Pedro. Nice photo, lovely weather. Good to see the old Ida Bay rail operating again. We were there a few years ago ,and not working due to some shenanigans with OH S or insurance. Did you spend time at Cockle Creek or Recherce? Lot of history there ...French gardens ,and sawmills and mines

    The series 1 looks like a 11 but most likely wrong

    That photo is of a Series 2.
    It has been on the side of the track maybe fifteen years now.
