I have the property but I think the postage might be a bit over the top

Be interesting to find out just how much it would cost to ship downunder, though....

No - I am NOT thinking of ordering one.  :no:

Maybe we could club together guys and do a group buy (downunder) split the P&P ?  :laugh:

Well after buying the loco we could then start working on the the track laying.

Bart could start heading south towards you George and I'll start heading up the penisular and then round the corner to Adelaide before heading across to meet you coming the other way.

When complete we could undercut the Indian Pacific prices - not difficult

Well, there are three. So we could have a bidirectional mainline and a meandering branchline...

I'll have a talk to the local MP and see what I can do about opening up the abandoned Maldon - Dumbarton tunnel and use that for a route west out of the Illawarra....

Yes, forum members, we are all  :laugh3: here - it's the sun that does it, you know.
