This is the very first steam locomotive that officially ran in Sydney, on September 25, 1855. The image was taken at Sydney's Central Station on 9/24/2005 during an exhibition that was held to commemorate the first train. I was planning on seeing the arrival of the reenactment at Parramatta station on the next day, but the weather was so unkind, I stayed home. Maybe for the 160th, which is only six years out.
Hope you like Class 12-10.
