That last tunnel with the diesel fume reminded me for underground mining. But cleaner and with beers.

My plan for a group photo at Thirroul was blown away by the train arriving on a different platform.

"This photo will be online by about 4 o'clock", he says.

"I still have service", says I.
 
Stopped at Summit Tank to let a coal train pass.

We are in the loop at Summit Tank with no platform. The gate to the lookout is locked & no one on board has a key.

Working on Robertson as an alternative.
 
Charlie (our server) is cold.

Raining at Robertson.
 
Group photo was taken by our driver (not on my camera) at Robertson. So I took a photo of our driver taking a photo of us.

I must applaud erkpod on all the wonderful photos. The driver used mine and gwilli1's camera for the photos so I'll upload at a later date.
