    Hey guys

    I saw a poster while at Mitchelton the other day, and the Blackwood St Chamber of Commerce has organised some short steam tours running from Mitchelton to Roma St and return. Doing a few trips so thought I'd give a heads up for anyone interested.

    IIRC, there is no angle on the Ferny Grove line, so does that mean they will be running the loco/tender backwards on every second trip?

    Ok, 2 shunts per trip. I just assumed they would do the exhibition loop and only do the one shunt at Mitchelton.
