G'day there! Thanks for visiting my site and please don't forget to hit your "refresh" button for the latest updates. I hope you find your visit enjoyable and worth the time you spend here! :-)

What's NEW ?

Just a new photo or two has been added to the "Electric" and "Carriage and Wagon" Gallery. Additional and more current info about the railway scene in Queensland has been included on the "About QR" page and as usual the links page has been checked with any dead links being removed. Any, comments, corrections or constructive criticism appreciated. Please enjoy! :-)


What this site is about.

First of all and probably most obviously, this site is NOT Queensland Railways official corporate site! What this site is however, is a place that my friends and I can place any images they like, from photos they have taken, in connection with any part of Queensland's Railways. It is a place I hope where, in my own small way, I can contribute to the preservation of images of Railway's in Queensland that can shared with everyone. I also hope that you will learn a little something about Queensland's Railways and Railways in general. Included on this site, is a page with a little about Queenslands Railways and its history, links to articles on how Railway related things work, a Links Page, and of course the Photo Gallery and now the Video Gallery.

Copyright Note: As always, the copyright of each image remains with the owner. Provided acknowledgement of ownership is given, any image may be downloaded for personal use and used on any personal and non-profit organisation's web site.

Feel free to comment, or make a CONSTRUCTIVE criticism of this site. I assure you I am far from being a railway expert! If you believe I have made an error with any information anywhere on this site, please let me know. Just click on 'e-mail me!' on the menu bar and drop me a line.


For their valuable assistance in the creation and continued maintenance of this site, a special thanks goes to my good friend Arthur with his extensive knowledge of Queensland Railways and my good friends Jenn and Kerry for their input and advice on the site's design!
