Locomotive 3016

I thought I would make a collage of the last two steam trains at the Steamfest in Maitland last weekend and as you can see this is engine 3016. Tomorrow I will post a collage of the other locomotive at the festival.

Locomotive 3016 was built in 1903 as a C30 Class 4-6-4 by Beyer, Peacock and Co in Manchester. 3016 was initially used for Sydney suburban services, however, following the electrification of Sydney's suburban network from 1926, Locomotive 3016 was converted for use on the NSW region lines. The rebuilt C30 class locomotives became part of the C30T Class with a new 4-6-0 configuration. 3016 is currently maintained and operated by Transport Heritage NSW under hire agreement.

Terrific collage Babs. Steam trains are amazing looking pieces of machinery. We love watching them meander through the Dales when were visit there.

This is an excellent collage Bab - what a splendid locomotive machine. They always look best in black I think and I really like the way you have put this together.

Nice collage Babs. That train in the middle makes me think of the train in the Harry Potter films...
