Good Morning,

I have been busy adding Railway Stations, and done a story on Rail Passenger services in the 60's.

 

The Stations I have covered since the last Update are,

Grafton Railway Station,

Coffs Harbour Railway Station,

Newcastle Interchange.

There are 7 more stations to add to the 14th Newsletter, which is planned to be completed on the 21st of September 2020.

I have also covered the story of my experience with Rail Passenger services when I was able to catch 3 different Passenger services in my Teens. Click on the "More Posts" at the bottom of each page to access the story.

Here's some Photos taken  at Kilmore East in Victoria, in January 2015.













We were traveling between Traralgon and Rochester, and stayed at Kilmore for a week to have a look around.

This was one place we visited while at Kilmore. Spent the day out visiting several places.
