Look at these two images so that your eyes focus on a point halfway to the screen. You should see 4 images. Make the inner 2 images become 1 by moving your head and adjusting your focus. If successful you will see loco 1307 in stereo. These images were made in late 1972 or early 1973 where withdrawn locos were stored prior to scrapping. The camera was a Zeiss Ikon Contina and the film Tri-X with home development and these scans from commercial prints.

1307 is a 4-4-2 tank loco which was originally a 12 class 4-4-0 tender loco from around 1880. This loco had recently been replaced at Yass by an X200 rail tractor. I was surprised to see it here. Soon after I took the photo of 1307 a guy about 18 said he had to move it and did I want a ride so I climbed in and went about a 100m. That was pretty good.

Uncoupling 1301 to run around at the brickworks.

the 13s and train arrive at the State Brickworks.

The train has stopped after steaming past the photo line for approach and trailing shots. The photographers now reboard the train.

I was in a large moreton bay fig tree to take this photo of the train and photographers. The train steams past the photographers then stops.

3085 has run off the train and the 13 cl are about to attach.
