OT: I'm back! – image 1

Well, I have returned to Perth after my 12-day trip to York with mates and my girlfriend. A great time was had by all. I now have 3 months off before college (uni). We happened to go right in the middle of harvest season that meant lots of trains. The first week we were in 5km of a rail line and saw about 10 trains in 4 days. ALL GE!!!!!! All I can say is when 2 Dash8's came through on a grain train and notched up it sounded so much like NALW's GE Megapack sounds. Photos will be posted once I have them scanned. Train-sim stuff: 1 week's time, I should have Ferrosur, MRS and KCS AC4400CW's in the library.
