Centenary of Rail in the Manning (Greater Taree and Wingham).
Permalink  

G'day, g'day. Last weekend, Taree and Wingham celebrated 100 years of rail in the Manning. Premier Barry O'Farrell and Federal MP Rob Oakeshott made the official speeches while yours truly ran around the place with a camera a took lots of piccies. I also shot a lot of video which I'll edit later during the week. Meanwhile, if you'd like to see an album of the stills I took of the locos, vintage cars, etc, click here.

It was Vic... but these old bones ain't what they useta was and I was a bit sore after walking, climbing, bending, etc, for two days! Worth it to get the pics though. The video's looking good too, and I'll post that pretty soon. Thanks for taking a peek.

Update: Just posted the video on Youtube.

Bugger...missed it.....wish I had known. Fabulous photos Gary.

I'm sure I've met that light horse man at Port Stephens Clans on the Coast, last year.

Wares? Wot wares? I haven't got any wares. In any case, Herbie, some things are considered taboo. However, I am keen to get "out there" and bruise my shutter button finger. I love doing that stuff. The doc's report was pretty good the other day (in Port Macquarie). In 2 weeks I see the surgeon in Sydney for his assessment.
