Well, thanks, Bob, but smooth talking, slick salesmanship has never been something I've aspired to.

The carriers are progressing slowly lol, more so on 2528 as it won't take as much to finish lol. I will get pictures when I get around to it, if I remember.

Hi Nathan - for you interest Carrier 2528 is a 1942 South Australian Railways manufactured Carrier built under Order No. MOS 146. I have added the details to my Carrier database.

Bob, I'm mortified at your dis-belief! The comment I made was true ...
We live by a river. I work for my wife and don't get much pay I retired in 2010 - the papers from the AWM say so. I research and I write. Oh ... the house. OK: it's not so small by Aust standards I suppose! Don't know about the Clampetts, but the Vanderbilts next door are just fine. Mike C |

I only just realised i wrote the wrong serial number above lol should be 2838 not 2528
Yes you are correct Bob, 2528 is a SAR carrier but is quite literally ony half the carrier it used to be. All the tracks, wheels, diffs and turning componets remain but everything above the tracks is gone. It will be used as a parts donor for 1824 when i eventually get to it. I have been trying to locate all the unit numbers and everything else to go with 2838 but this is no easy task in itself. Restoration of 2838 is progressing slowly
