Looking along the turntable at 4012, a steam crane, two 45cl and a 48cl at Werris Creek, sometime in 1971.

Hornby, No. 50, if my memory is correct.

Derelict 73 cl diesels.

For some years the NSWGR ran a Vintage Train and between runs the cars were stored at the Hornsby Electric Train Sheds. This meant that the locos assigned to the train, a 12 cl from approx 1880, 1243 and a 17 cl from approx 1890, 1709, were occasional visitors. This photo shows 1243 backing onto the turntable, with 1709 already turned, prior to taking the Vintage Train towards Sydney on the mainline. In May 2008 1243 is now a static exhibit at The Powerhouse Museum in Sydney. The 12 cl is still active as a previously plinthed loco, 1210, has been restored to operating condition by the Australian Railway Historical Society, ACT Division. 1709 is in operational condition at The Rail Transport Museum in Thirlmere south west of Sydney.

Loco 3828 at Wyong on the manual turntable in preparation for the run back to Gosford. August 1966.

3828 on the turntable at Gosford, May 65. This was on my first outing specifically to see trains. It was also done without having had a film developed from the ancient box brownie I was using. This was the only photo worth scanning from that day. A bit sad about the garratts, double 35s, 35s and 38s on passengers etc etc.

4809 places 4303 in roundhouse no.1. They are on the 105' turntable.

Loco 3144 on the turntable at Tumbarumba. April 1972. HFF to my Ipernity viewers for 29/11/24.
