Howdy folks!
One major drawback of years of neglecting to catalogue over 300,000 photos is that I'm now playing catch-up. While I've managed to organize thousands of images on this blog across various themes, there are still countless others sitting around waiting for their moment.
To tackle this backlog, I'm embarking on a mission to sort through and categorize a substantial number of these photos in the coming months. Expect to see posts dedicated to locomotives, carriages, infrastructure, trams, and buses, catering to those with even a passing interest in these subjects.
This series will cover the various Aussie Sugarmill rail systems and equipment that I have photographed over the years.
These will all be primarily around Queensland, however, preserved items will appear in other states.
Prepare for the approaching tsunami of photographs from the 80s till today.
Corrections are welcome.
You're welcome.
