    Australia's most powerful operating steam engine, Beyer-Garratt 6029, is taking people on steam train adventures today and tomorrow (29 & 30 June 2019) and I was there to take a few images of this wonderful and huge locomotive.

    Thanks, porkphoto. The 28-135 is just what my 1Ds needed. That engine has been completely restored with the help of government funds after they took over the place where all the historic engines and rail cars were stored. That was a great decision.
