Couldn't agree more Greg. I was out taking pics of the day and catching up with some mates at ZZR at the end and was appalled to hear this cr@p had occurred. What sh1ts me is that these dropkicks KNOW that the ZZR staff are working their guts out for free to throw on a great show for the gunzels, from all reports they went beyond the call on Saturday too, far beyond the normal ZZR experience, and this is what they get for their efforts

Totally agree.
Next big ZZR event, I reckon you and I should come along, eh Greg? Could be fun.
ZZR volunteer positions in security. Now there's an idea!
Humphrey! We're leaving!

Whoever the person who reported Greg's post is, why bother?
STUFF all the foamers who do absolutely nothing to the preservation movement except pay some fares, which then gives them the right to do whatever they want..
They got an experiance at Zig Zag, the first time 4 steamers had been running there at once, and they STILL abuse the staff. One of the comments I was told was that the photospot was too close to the road and the cars were disturbing the peace...

Willing to find out with them and get back to you on that
Deep Throat.
Obviously these smeg idiots who want to ruin train photography for everyone else are from the shallow end of the gene pool.
I know if I was in the position of the ZZR staff, I would suggest they aren't close enough to the cars going past.
Here or there

Jesus freakin christ! Hadn't noticed that until you commented Liam. Now most will know I don't generally put up with Greg flying off the handle, but I'm 100% with him this time. If he's flaming some kiddie for not knowing the full and unabridged history of the 32 class, he needs to calm down a bit, but he's aiming at adults that used threats of violence and racism against someone doing a fine job, and ending up out of pocket for the opportunity to give this dropkick a good day.
Would the person that reported this by chance be defending his right to abuse the ZZR staff? Have you got the balls to bring your complaint to the attention of everyone else on this thread?

To those who wonder what they are all talking about, go to this thread /link :
Triple Headed Steam
http://www.railpage.com.au/f-t11343208-0-asc-s90.htm
.. to enjoy the positive reports and photos from the day.
===================================
Now I think we all need to stop and wonder what we are reading here.
One key comment is someone attacking the reporting of this thread. Sorry Bwana but this thread would have been brought to our attention regardless, and should have been. And two seconds after I would have browsed the NSW forums I would have acted anyhow.
Now this whole thread is a negative one aimed, well I am not sure who at, me perhaps ? Yes there must have been alot of incidents. Alot not good at all. Very unfortunate and serious things. Things that I hope may not happen for the next tour or event.
But this whole thread DOES NOT HELP IN ANY WAY, except as a stress reliever at the time. It will also encourage the very people you wish to have a go at, if they are on Railpage Australia™. We know there are people here who do not like each other. But I'm trying to stop that HERE.
It has not helped People looking at NSW. We note there were incidents that have enraged people. But this is not the place or way to discuss it.
And for that the thread is locked.
Many people worked their buts off to make a great day. Enjoy the good stuff: http://www.railpage.com.au/f-t11343208-0-asc-s90.htm
.. to enjoy the positive reports and photos from the day.
