HEISLER A 5 inch gauge Heisler, built by Jim Ranford for Vic Sicluna seen here on the elevated track. This loco purrs along!
	SIMPLEX This is a modified version of the popular Simplex design, built by Ken Baker. Beautifully finished, the first run was faultless and a example of just what can be achieved with a first engine.
PS4 This 5 inch gauge beauty was built by Jim Leishman and is seen here in the elevated track locomotive depot. Jim's in the background.
	DOUBLE HEADING ON THE ELEVATED Just finished is Bernie Courtenay's 10 class seen here double heading with Brian Kilgour's 'Nigel Gresley' on a trial train of elevated track rolling stock.

	THE DEPOT An elevated view of the 5 inch gauge ground level track locomotive depot, seen here at a quiet moment.
WAGR V Class on a Short Mixed Goods. This 5 inch gauge Western Australian V class locomotive is built to 1:8 scale due to the prototype being 3 ft 6 inch gauge. It is seen here waiting for the signal to reverse back into the platform from the yard.
	VISITING STEAM! This visiting SAR locomotive is a class 16F which didn't quite exist in full size! John Wakefield is seen here on the outer main ground level track after dropping in on his way back to Adelaide from Townsville.
422 CLASS Brian Carter brought the Australian Model Engineering 422 class battery electric for a run, seen here with Brian instructing Andrew Allison in its operation on the outer main track.
