"The Shunting Yard"...

Puffing Billy is a century old steam train still running on it's original narrow guage track from Belgrave to Gembrook in the Dandenong Ranges....here at Belgrave it gets ready to back up to it's waiting carriages and passengers for a morning run through the mountains...
Wonderful shot John. Great composition with nostalgic feel. Now that we're approaching the end of our 365, I was wondering if you will be continuing on with it.

@mccarth1 ..hi Kerry...hasnt this year gone so fast..ive really enjoyed my 365 project and look forward to viewing all the posts each day..it has given me lots of pleasure and angst as well...the time needed to get photos organised and uploaded can be long as well and i know we are all in the same boat with this..the 365 communiity is fantastic and the project has pushed me to try new ideas and its very satisfying when these ideas work out....so ..to answer your question..ive got about 12 more shots to post for this year and ....yes...cheers

Great capture....so vintage. Love the shots of steam and the engineer (?) throwing the switch/crank (?) to go in reverse.
