Puffing Billy Train

Filling up at Emerald.

Puffing Billy train

This train is heading back to Belgrave after being to Gembrook. At Gembrook they move the engine to the other end of the carriages to head back. Always amuses me how the engine travels backwards.

Another shot close to our home.

This is near the Selby crossing – just up the road from our home.

The Puffing Billy

My new home is now only minutes away from the home of the Puffing Billy train, which travels from Belgrave to Gembrook and back on a daily basis. I love hearing the whistle blow every day as it makes its journey several times a day. And yet, it was only last week for the first time that I actually got stopped at the train crossing on our street.  I have deliberately made sure I’ve been at the crossing other days so I can get shots of this train.  This week photos will be of the train at different stations, crossings or on the famous trestle bridge.
