Converging parallels.
Parallels, a word you had to really grind away at learning at school or it is likely, you would always have too many "r's" or "s's" or both or just not enough of either. I still have to say it out loud to ensure I get it right.....and blow the predictive text or spell checker! This is just a study of the end of the double tracks at Sandgate on Queensland Rail's Shorncliffe branch in suburban Brisbane. The terminus is next, and a few more feet from the end of the line would have you tipped into Cabbage Tree Creek. I am standing on the end of the platform.......once upon a time, this place had a number of sidings to store passenger trains overnight, one for local traders on the left and just out of sight on the right, the Sandgate Gasworks and its sidings and distinctive smell where wagons of coal for the retorts were railed in to make "town gas". The sky was devoid of all the overhead line equipment then, steam and diesel engines rained supreme!
