~~ PICTON SOJOURN # 572 ~~
With the Colonel back in Australia (much to his regret) following a few months galavanting around different parts of asia in search of trains, booze and women (to photograph), it was time to again head south to the gunzel centre of Picton.
Sadly a lot of the state is in the grip of some pretty bad floods yet again, this of course having a flow on affect to train operations and frequency. So it was that only three trains were captured, one was missed and four Bundy's were downed.
Picton, so close to Sydney, but with the rural lifestyle.Quickly becoming the prefered location for my declining years - which already seem to have begun.
Twas a bit of a walk to the railway line from the Church of Colonel, so other less foamy shots were taken along the way.
Picton Botanical Gardens
8108 passes through Picton yard with a cement train bound for nearby Maldon.
Hardly rating a 1 on the railfan excitment scale, an up Tranny passes through Picton.

One must always be well prepared for rain in Picton, in can strike at any time.
