Eltham Model Railway Club
Corio 2003 Model Railway Exhibition
Photos, page 1/3.



Down at Corio, just out of Geelong 28-30 January 2000 was our ninth showing of our exhibition layout "Murranbilla".

Some shots have sky digitally extended/added. You can tell these images because there is a plane of some sort in the shot (taken at the 2003 Avalon Air show).



DESCRIPTION
PICTURE
A overall view of the railway.
A "N" steam loco pulles into the loop, which is also the platform road to take on water.

Club president Mark Laidlay and Tree maker John Reid admire the forest end of the layout.
While a "E" 2-4-2 shunter awaits it's next job, we see a quiet yard from the livestock end.
A "N" steams through the forested end and onto the trestle.

Moving the Grain. A "T" shunts the silo road with a mainline "B"+"S" pass through to another silo up the line.
Two 700's appear out of the cutting as they approch on the "up" end.
Train crew are careful when stabling at Murranbilla's stockyard siding not to stop too near the cattle yards. Here we see a DERM shut down.

A "S" hauled passenger train arriving with a busy yard.
A "B" has arrived to drop off empty grain wagons, and then pick up the full rake still in the silo road.
A busy grain season, with the grain road full of loaded wagons. It looks like the crews of the "F" and "B" will be busy.
