Post by: 68PONY on August 17, 2008, 07:26:56 PM: well done joe you got the shot! looks great
Title: Sunday 17th August Thirlmere Steam Train Sunday
Post by: leojvs on August 18, 2008, 06:56:40 PM: Well aside from my little coolant leak, me and the fam had a great day out. Yeah Joe, that pic you were after turned out great!

In all I did a 330km round trip. Leaving home at 615am, getting to mum & dads at about 430pm, getting home 2 hours later, after coffee and cake.

Its first long trip with the new dual 2 1/2 inch exhaust set-up was Saturday, and my girlfriend and I loved it, but we may be a little biased, but the rest of my family thought the old girl sounded sweet. The hard bit in the previous weeks was convincing mum to get in the tank. She really isnt a fan of large cars, especially mine since she hears about the amount of body roll she has

Thanks to the staff of the rail museum & club members for assisting my mum on and off the train too.

We stopped in at the Picton Hotel for lunch on the 'scenic' drive home, which was thru The Oaks, Oakdale, Werombi, Orangeville, Silverdale, thru Wallacia and on to the Blue Mountains. THe food there was FANTASTIC! Not to take away from your pies Gary, but I will be going there again for lunch real soon, as its only about 25 mins from my place.
