ChumRail’s 42105 & 42103 are seen working together on The Cockatoo Run as 5L22 through Sydenham with its trip almost finished after travelling to Moss Vale earlier in the day.
C&NW 411 (F7A) and CB&Q 9911A (E5) caught my eye (!) on the drive to work this morning. Here they sit in the Proviso yard in Melrose Park, this was shot from the Mannheim Rd. overpass. Even with the light all wrong they still look really right.

The future of racing looks a lot like the past. This monocoque body houses a gasoline engine, which in turn powers an electric generator which powers the floating wheels. A series of magnetic pulses force the wheel rings to turn. The result is a modern, smooth racing experience with an aesthetic that hearkens back to the early days of auto racing.
The design era between Art Deco, and Mid-century Modern; also known as Art Moderne...
As the Great Depression of the 1930s progressed, Americans saw a new aspect of Art Deco—i.e., streamlining, a concept first conceived by industrial designers who stripped Art Deco design of its ornament in favor of the aerodynamic pure-line concept of motion and speed developed from scientific thinking. Cylindrical forms and long horizontal windowing also may be influenced by constructivism. As a result an array of designers quickly ultra-modernized and streamlined the designs of everyday objects. Manufacturers of clocks, radios, telephones, cars, furniture, and many other household appliances embraced the concept.

Still a strong presence on the rails 60 years after construction, S302 rests around the Seymour Turntable awaiting to be converted from Standard to Broad Gauge.
S302 was built in 1957 and has had many owners and operators over the years including the Victorian Railways, V/Line, West Coast Railway, El Zorro and currently with SSR.
S302 will once again be hauling freight trains in Victoria after gauge conversion and a much needed tidy up.
