I dont know about you guys, but streamlined steam engines just look stupid and out of place.

I like seeing the tubing, valves, rods, bolts and rivets!

lucky, we only have narrow gauge in queensland and tasmania. The rest of Aus is standard gauge.

 

[Lucky13]

Oh, ok....I thought that the whole Aussie system was 1000 mm, how does that work then with two track widths?

Some AT&SF.....can you hear them working?

And some more D&RGW....
