The Yard at Crisp's Creek |
| Description: |
The line from Goulburn to Australia's capital city of Canberra sees only one regular freight train a day, that being the weekday garbage operation out of Sydney for the small facility at Crisp's Creek, which is not quite one-third of the way down the branch. Here three Pacific National units sit while waiting for a roughly 4:30 departure to return to Sydney. AN6 and 8179 are EMD powered; 80-class no.8050 has an Alco 251 engine and Japanese electricals. |

Trash Train at Tarago |
| Description: |
After having waited for the afternoon DMU for Canberra to pass by, the empty Crisp's Creek to Sydney trash train rolls by the depot at Tarago on the Canberra branch. The semaphore to the left doesn't have much longer to go as its replacement stands next to it, all but ready to take over. |
