I haven't ever been to that part of the world yet. But gee it reminded me of going to work with Dad in the 80's in Cloncurry. What an absolute dream job it was back then, no one looking over your shoulder. Enough time to show the terrorists the points of interest that would never be seen except for the local knowledge. I joined the job because my Dad took me to work on these engines and here I am having driven 1770 some 30 odd year later. Thanks for the nostalgia Ted.

Real classic outback north Queensland branch line working, well done Ted, you should offer it to the TV network in QLD for rebroadcast. Old hook couplings and spoke wheeled rolling stock in 1991, relics from the steam era. Most enjoyable, thank you Ted.

Hi Ted fantastic video brings backs memories when the railroad was owned by the state government and not privatised. Still using an older hook and buffers on the older wagons and more modern knuckle couplers as well on the same train 😊😊😊😊

Cheers Scott. It was a real treat being able to get such a variety of shots. I esp like the footage of the Guard (the late Bruce Munro - a terrific fellow) at work

was called 7A90, when I did it in 1987, it ran twice a week, forget which, Mondays and Thursdays. When I travelled on it, someone torched the railway camp at Gelaro. We paused there on the way back, the driver said nobody was not to touch anything because the Arson Squad were on their way from Brisbane. First time I saw a crime scene before the police.

great video, most modern day train crew would run a mile at the thought of old school shunting :)

Cheers. I dont think too many would be able to handle the old school way these days!

Great video and a lovely tribute at the end, back in the days when the railways still served small communities. The axe was already starting to fall on these branch lines as successive state Labor governments from Wayne Goss right up to the present day have systematically set about destroying our regional rail system.

Thanks Shaun, it was an outstanding bunch of people on that trip, many of which have of course sadly passed away.
