Great job Greg

[@gerryryder1120]

Sorry mate, but the green beast with the big voice is an ex-WAGR S class engine. 'S' class locos were built in WA. Can't tell you any more about it right now. Very nice footage by the way.

Wouldn't be Australia without some drongo standing so close to the track he can touch the train!

Ok, so...on that strange little engine pulling just one car...where's the fuel and water? Cute little thing...You Aussies tell me about it! EDIT: OH, it's one piece, not an engine and a separate car. (I may have had a wee bit too much to drink...)

The Coffee Pot - 5.05 you can see the "fire coal" in the bunker of the engine - then at the carriage, second class the water taker is below the 2nd class

@@chriscarpenter4487 so a steam injector then? surely this thing would burn through fuel and water
