Welcome to the last place on Australia that still uses English Electric locos.
Although we do run ex Clyde-GM QR 1460/1502 and WAGR D GM locos.
Also you can see that our trains are big like the mainland of Australia. We don't run as the same speed as they do however!.
If anyone is a fan of what Tasmanian rail has, i can say if you can make a trip down here, cause one day the EE and older GM locos might not be around.
Cheers Damien 'Z1' Smith |

Name is Damien Smith. Been taking railway pictures since the late 90s, still in High School!. Born and bread so far in Burnie, Tasmania. I have been into railway related stuff since my early years, thanks to my grandfather, and one locomotive, Z1(now number 2110). Wasn't until 1995 in grade 7 that a mate invited me for a day at Don River Railway.
Although first pictures was taken on cheap film cameras. Wasn't until 2004 that i got my first digital camera, another cheap nasty one. 2005 upgraded to a far better Olympus digital.
Well, finally have upgraded to a Canon EOS 400 D DSLR camera, so the pictures should improve from now on.
