    Look What Went Past My House

    Six months ago I shifted address. My back fence is on the railway line.

    This went past this morning but I missed it. I heard it but was too late to see it.

    However, the railway track is a dead end. So what goes past has to come back, as it did at 5.15 pm today.







    In the last pic my place is on the left of the tracks, about where the engine is.
    I walked to the crossing as this was a far better place to view. SWMBO watched from our back fence.
    Dave.

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

    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Very nice Ian, but did these go past your house?
    Assuming your truck is not your house.

    Nice. Beats the freight trains that usually trundle past - but they're good fun too.

    You put any gates in yet so you don't have to duck under 3 fences to get to the track?
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Not yet. Lack of funds as I can't seem to land a job.

    Have yet to see the train that runs through the Nundah station. Have heard and smelt the coal and steam ,but by the time I get out it is gone.
