I understand a train trundles past our little abandoned station most days carrying coal all the way over the mountains to the sea at Port Kembla for export. I have not yet seen one.
Not so certain I find those 'points' secure, although I do love the curve taking us out somewhere into the future.
You mentioned once before, I think re Glen Davis, that the produce (whatever it was) went down to Port Kembla rather than to Sydney - which I always find a puzzlement just from the point of topography, not even meaning that all points should necessarily point to Rome, or anysuch.
I agree I have thought of that too but I guess Port Kembla has the coal handling facilities ... I don't know of any in Sydney. What has me wondering is where is the line they head south on as all lines seem to go to Sydney.
I'm sure you'll see that train one day - so keep your camera at hand and you can grab us a pic!
