Photos by Steven Brown. Narrated travelog of a 1995 month long trip around Australia. Starting in Victoria, spend a day with me at the Brooklyn signal box, chase a steam train, go for a cab ride and feel sorry for penguins before continuing on a tour around the country ending with the finale; a transcontinental ride aboard the Indian Pacific.

Cameron is one of my safeworking supervisors ! He oversee's signalbox operations around the Melbourne network and also sorts out disruptions and disabled trains.

Amazing what pops up in KZfaq! An excellent timpiece, capturing the colonial differences along with mixed British and American practice. And yes, those Bulldogs are hanging in!

Alot has changed at Sydney's Central Station since 1995. You can now catch a train to the Domestic & International Airports. There's now a tram network in Sydney that has returned. If you're ever back in Australia, Sydney has lots you can see by train..... Blue Mountains, Kiama Blowhole, Newcastle.....

Oh to have a dollar for everytime I went over that crossing at Brooklyn either on a train or in the car. Had to rewind when I heard you say Cameron's name. Always knew things would be alright when you called Brooklyn office on the radio and heard him reply.

Well you got to Kathrine but since it was 1995 the Ghan only reched to the town of Alice Springs down south so it would of been a good place to watch trains but anyways in 2002 or 2003 the Ghan now reaches Darwin passing Kathrine with a Level Crossing before the national park.

Have any photos of the ADL/ADC DMUs or the ADK/ADB DMUs? New Zealand to date uses the ADL/ADC sets in Auckland for Sub-Urban -> Urban/Central Commute. Not long-distance anymore, just a commute to 2 unelectrified stations since 2015. Any DQ locomotives? Imported to NZ via Wisconsin Central Ltd's company called Tranzrail.
