Australian Railway History | August 2022
Its time to go LOCO, our August issue is out now!
We are driving Melbourne’s SUPER TRAINS, now 41 years old and being scrapped. But what were they like to drive in those early days in the 1980s? We continue to track our way through the over 150 years of Tasmanian Railway History with part 2 of the series covering the years from 1938 to 1985. With all the wet weather that NSW has been having we explore two articles that relate to rivers flooding and effecting railway infrastructure in the first instance Kempsey Bridge needed major repairs in the 1950 floods and the next article talks of bravery at Singleton where the Brisbane to Sydney Mail needed to be stopped before hitting flood waters of the Hunter River. All this and more is in your August issue waiting for you.
