2:30 621/721 out on a run to celebrate the *Rail Motor Society* 40th Anniversary. Sadly I missed out on a ride that day....... awwwww geeeee! LOL

I waited for the return trip from Wallarobba, but I wasn't happen with the scene and took a punt and departed to change locations, then the train turned up, never mind.....

@@australiasindustrialage689 I've been on a few rides with the Tin Hares when they went only as far as the Wallarobba Passing Loop. These days they go all the way up to Dungog.

[@australiasindustrialage689]

@@neilforbes416 I think they did go to Dungog now that I think of it

[@neilforbes416]

@@australiasindustrialage689 They did, eventually. At first the Tin Hares went only to Wallarobba Passing Loop, then later all the way to Dungog. On my *Trams & Trains* channel I have videos of going only as far as Wallarobba PL as well as all the way to Dungog, and also videos of the return to Paterson from both locations.

1:07 When did you take this shot? If it's when I think you took it, then it would've been when CPH-3 was having issues with its gears(I think). I way well have been on board this trip.

Hi Neil, If it was the opening scene I think it was the 9/1, the date is on the video. I tried to use a shot of it featured on the video, but the scene was the wrong proportions, so it didn't work.
