(...) I believe that is exactly the plan. I understand there's also a slim chance of something similar being done in the space theme (SPACE CITY!), but at the moment that's in the hands of the ambassadors, so don't hold your breath. Allister (18 years ago, 12-Mar-07, to lugnet.loc.au) !

(...) Hi Jonathan, There's a little information on the web, but not a whole lot. Your best bet is the local library, or local hobby book store, as there are quite a few good books on Australian steamers. And Teunis probably has most of them ;) ROSCO (18 years ago, 26-Feb-07, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.trains)
