Simply, some of the best, most historic rail film I've ever seen. Shot in the 1950s, this remarkable 16mm film was found in an abandoned garage following a housefire, in Sydney's West. Mostly Kodachrome colour, it shows scenes of 20 class, 30 class and even a 41 class diesel on the old Camden line, closed on the 1st January, 1963.

    My father worked on the wharves in Sydney with Customs in the 60's, l worked on the wharves in the early 80's. Not much had changed. Except the shunting was now done with small diesel locomotives. It was the best of times. Sydney was a working harbour, from Garden Island, to Balls Head, Gore Hill, Glebe, Anandale, Pyrmont, Cockatoo Island, Balmain, Drummoyne, Lavender Bay, the list goes on. There was always something happening, it was never boring. 👍🇦🇺

    Hi Graeme, I really appreciate you rescuing this footage and sharing it with us. It really brings the reality of the steam alive for those of us who were not fortunate enough to see it personally for ourselves. The scenes that really opened my eyes was the b & w footage of the 17 Class and the scene of the final run of 3402. How marvellous that someone was there to record it.

      Only rough plans at the moment. It's still evolving to a degree but most earthworks are done, basically to take it out around the balloon loop and back so the locos will face the opposite way each run. The section shown here is the zigzag up to the engineering works.

If it had been there is no way it would have passed over it at all, as it did on the way down, with a section of the railhead missing completely. Being a relatively new track we attend to these things as required but the breaking, entirely, was not predictable.
