Classic lines were on display at Eskbank, with B61, GM27, S317, GM10, and GM22 all in close proximity.
Particularly pleasing was the chance arrangement of B61, GM27, and S317 as seen here.

The distinctive EMD chatter of S302 and T386 is clearly audible over the distant thunder as the pair approach Murtoa with 7769V loaded mineral sands train from Hopetoun. Shortly before the train arrived, a large storm thrashed the Horsham/Stawell/Ararat area, leaving us fearful if we would have to watch the passage of the train from inside the car!
The former Victorian Railways Clyde/EMD S-Class locomotive was the most numerous of the various Australian "Bulldog" types on display at the Streamliners 2016 event in Goulburn.
18 S-class locos were constructed by Clyde Engineering in two batches in 1957 and 1960/1. 12 examples survive split between in-service, stored or preserved.
This is taking Teunis' great vent idea to a silly extreme, but I'm not one to run away from silly extremes ;-)
This design lets me squeeze six sections into 28 studs, which is about what is needed for a 1:45 scale S class.

When I was younger, I quite fancied the idea of having a W108/109. Not just any, but the rather nice, 280 SE 3.5 with a 200 hp V8.
At the time, they were worth about $6,000. Which was, unfortunately, about $6,000 more than I had. I had also been cautioned, that running a 25 year old Mercedes-Benz, low-volume V8 was probably pretty expensive as well. Having just looked them up, they are now worth about $35,000, though they are now an additional 30 years old and have probably cost a lot of money to keep them running that long.
Still, lovely. The range launched in 1965, initially with a 2.5 L inline-six, producing 130 PS in the carburettor 250S, of 150 PS in the injected 250 SE. A larger engined 3.0L was fitted to the W109 300SE/SEL, which used air suspension. In this application, the engine produced 170 PS.
In 1967 the 2.8L replaced the 2.5L lifting power to 140 PS and 160 PS for the 280 S and 280 SE respectively, while the 3.5L v8 also joined the range at this time.
Those crazy people who wanted a lot more go, could, from 1966, buy the limited volume 300 SEL 6.3, with the 250 PS / 500 Nm V8 from the flagship W100 600 model. These are probably worth most of $100 K these days.
Key appeal to this kind of car isn't the speed, but the style. 5.0m long, wide, glassy cabins, leather and wood, plenty of space, and plenty of class. There was one down the road from my house even, a pale blue 250 S, which gracefully glided down the street.
Ich hatte in der vergangenen Woche ein kurzes aber tolles Date mit einem Mercedes Benz S 580e. Natürlich hatte ich wieder keine Zeit .. wie immer .. aber einige wenige Fotos mussten sein. Der Preis für diesen Wagen lag bei 204.000 € .. 😎👍

Founded in Germany in 1977, Brabus has grown to become the largest tuning firm specialising in Mercedes-Benz products, other than the Mercedes' own AMG subsidiary. This breathtaking example of Brabus's handiwork is based on the ultra-luxurious Mercedes Maybach S650 sports saloon, one of the face-lifted Mercedes-Benz S-Class models introduced in 2014. The German tuner's upgrades boost the 6.3-litre twin-turbo V12 engine's maximum output to a staggering 900 PS (887 bhp) and 1,106lb/ft of torque - figures way beyond those of even the none-too-shabby S650's stock 6.0-litre unit (621 bhp/738 lb/ft). The result is a top speed of over 217mph and a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) time of just 3.7 seconds - true supercar performance from a vehicle weighing 2.8 tons (2,845 kg). German car magazine Auto Bild pitted a selection of supercars against one another in a test of acceleration where the Brabus 900, despite being the heaviest contestant, reached a speed 211.4 mph in a mere 3,000 metres (1.86 miles).
But Brabus's cars have always offered more than greatly improved engine output, and in the S650's case the German tuner also added a new aero-enhancing front bumper, custom alloy wheels, 'Brabus' logos, and a luxurious leather interior complete with a rear-seat entertainment system and 'Brabus' entrance lights. Of course, with a bespoke vehicle such as this, individual customers could vary the specification to their personal choice, though inevitably that would add to the already not inconsiderable base price of a little over € 500,000.
Finished in black with brown interior, this spectacular Brabus 900 has covered a mere 620km since it left the factory and is presented in effectively 'as new' condition throughout. Noteworthy features include twin sunroofs and Platinum Edition 21" forged wheels, and the car comes complete with an iPad mini, Microsoft Surface, optional touch-screen operation, Apple TV, wireless connectivity, and an LAN router. Sold with all Mercedes-Benz books and a Brabus owner's manual, it needs only for the battery to be charged and will be ready to go. The car is offered with Equatorial Guinea registration document and technical inspection.
