Monday Morning Photo. 7/10/07.

Thanks Troy, I regret few things in my life but the Dirranbandi Mail is one train I really regret missing out on. I didn't see the QGR in the '80s but I imagine it was similar to the Peterborough Division, a mixture of the Big Time and Snake Gully. It certainly was an appealing railway in the mid-sixties when I spent a little time there. More Snake Gully then, no Big Time coal haulage yet.

You might like the attached.

Best regards,

Peter Bruce.

Great pic Peter, that shed looks mighty impressive too. Your recollection sounds like what QR was like in the 80's ! Minus the steam, of course. But we still had a couple of magnificent timber sleeping cars, at least on the Dirranbandi Mail (jokingly referred to as the "Bandilander".)
