Commings and Goings

Hi all, just a quick update about my trains. I have now sold all my American trains except for the Santa Fe loco, and even that's got a person interested in it. I am also in the process of finalising a payment for my Life-Like Australian trains, money from which I will use to but more TraileRail trailers.

On another note, what I used my money from my American trains for was for a pack of Auscision RQIW container wagons. I ordered pack RQIW-2, which included wagons RQIW 60319X, 60321N, 60323X, 60334C, 60338P. Here is a photo:

The train now looks like this:




Also the photography page is updated.

Cya later.

Today, Mark came down to the coast to do some trainspotting with me. He bought his 80 class and 6 cement tankers.

Here are some photos:




The 80 class is an Austrains 8011 that has been renumbered, and the cement tanks are AR Kits NPRY kits.

New Loco!!!

For my birthday on the 9th October, I got my parents to buy me a TrainOrama 4483 in western division tuscan. It runs well, but there is an unusual noise when it runs flat end first. Nothing a good inspection won't fix though. It will run with my 4903 and 12 NOFF wagons.
