Railway Station - Parramatta, c.1910

  • Nigel Thompson said:
    This photo was probably taken at least a decade earlier than 1910. Locomotive 148 is a member of the C79 class, 20 of which were converted from tender to tank engines between 1896 and 1902 to make them more suitable for hauling suburban trains backwards, as in the photo. Also, in 1903 a more modern and powerful tank engine, the S636 class, was introduced and quickly became the standard class for suburban trains in Sydney until displaced by electric trains from the 1920s. 65 of the S class were in use by 1910.

    awesome old photo, the 'note' made me laugh, I also thought it looked like he was on a cell phone before I read it!

    This is the first of the 57 series Locomotive (5701) known as the Mountain type Locomotive . Made at the Clyde Engineering Works at Enfield , Sydney , N.S.W. . This image shows the Locomotive leaving the Clyde Engineering Works prior to joining the N.S.W.G.R. Line to travel to Penrith and return on a trial run .

    I can just remember these labelled features! Thanks for posting a reminder of when priorities were different. What have we gained?
