I couldn’t understand why Victorian railfans were so keen on NSW, until I went there to see it for myself. For a more recent view (10/09/2004) click here

85-20. Goulburn Loco. (l-r) 5241 and an 1868 8-wheel radial carriage restored at the Goulburn Waggon Repair Works.

I couldn’t believe this thing, with its rigid wheelbase, could run without falling off at every bend in the track. Last used at Harden fifteen years previously, it was externally restored for the Goulburn railway centenary celebrations a month earlier than when this picture was taken.
