TRAINS, PLANES & AUTOMOBILES !

My interests have broadened to include the above.  The Planes are really DJI Drones (I have three),  my tripods in the Sky,  because photos are an excellent way to express yourself & your Hobbies, including Flying & Flight. I am Enjoying Life !


 The Electric Car is starting to take off.  This is the Nissan Leaf,  a bigger range battery is coming out soon,  which will make them even more popular.

Running at AMRA, Glen Iris, Melbourne, Victoria.



This is one of my live steam locomotives in action at AMRA Glen Iris, in Melbourne, Victoria. Our large scale group meet there once a month and enjoy running trains. This loco is my Accucraft Edrig,
it runs really well, not like my Forney, it was a bit of a lemon, so I sold it to a mate for a song !  It made his day !!!

Track Cleaning on the E.B.R.



I find, I have to clean the track once a week using a track cleaner; otherwise it becomes a big job, where you have to manually scrub the track.  If I run the track cleaner around the track five times, it is clean for another week & I can run trains to my hearts content.  If you run trains every day, the track cleaner would become obsolete.  As you can see from this picture, I also have problems with weeds, they are a curse.
