 Merry Christmas all of you  some highlights from each side of a train heading uphill.

Assuming that's a nod to Herby on that MTWO car.  If so quite a sight to see international fr8 respect.

Yep they did four of these whole cars

 

Palm tree herby

US Coal train

Bozo Texino

 

 and colossus of roads - which I have been hunting for since I was told it was done.

 

have seen a B/W shot of it with Center doors open but I just can't catch it in real life...

Saw a great one as I was driving on Sunday in bloody moss vale between CBR and Syd (was in BS bushfire smoke and running the other way so I had no chance of catching it).

 

Was by Zion and had santa and a reindeer on either side. Looked like he'd had time to spend on it. Would lover to see a flick if anyone has it.

@Schnitzel, what does an Australian autorack look like?

I'll get a snap for you we dont have many really. in fact i've only seen one set of two carriages ever.

 

Most cars arrive by boat into their sales area since we only have 6 major cities
