Spoke, disc or boxpok?


G'day Milwaukee and all....On steamers....Try these vids https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYVBQq2ePPU and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQrhvKuL7h8 It's just under 200 miles from me on the other side of the State (Tasmania)...Was open for several years after a business entrepeneur Roger Smith and later Federal Hotels bought the famous West Coast line to restore the Abt Railway to something like it's former glory..In 2013 it had to close for almost a year while they carried out some major work to the trackage , bridges and infrastructure to make it even safer but it's fully running again now...The special third rail is why it's so famous and it allowed these magnificent little engines to ply their trade in some of the most rugged conditions for many , many decades until closure in 1963...Thank God the true enthusiasts found a way to restore it..Hope you enjoy...Cheers Rod..
