Rail and Sail to Wollongong

On Saturday, the 5th of November 2011, myself and fellow train buff Ben, followed locomotive 3526 as it ran down to Wollongong for the Rail and Sail event, operated by Heritage Express.
We had decided to mainly film the train at various locations down the South Coast line, but also take photos of the many stations along the way.
Our first stop was Heathcote, where we waited for the train for 1 and a half hours

The next stop on the list was Scarborough in which we had a spectacular ocean view. I also managed to snap an OSCAR set leaving towards Kiama

Eventually the train showed up and I quickly got a shot of it leaving Scarborough station



On the way back we stop in at Austinmer, where the train stopped to pick up some passengers and worked up the grade away from the station

Finally our last stop was at Loftus where i managed to get one photos of the train, coasting down from Waterfall and through the station

Enjoy the photos. I will try and upload the videos sometime soon but if they dont work you can check them out on my youtube acoount: http://www.youtube.com/user/greggles3801?feature=mhee
