This DVD takes a special look at two of the most popular and prestigious express passenger locomotives to operate on New South Wales Railways, the C36 class 4-6-0 and the C38 class 4-6-2.
Both types in their heyday were employed on top link passenger duties and were comparable in power rating and performance.
Durin the 1960s as dieselisation took a strong hold, both classes were gradually relegated to more humble freight workings.
Archive footage featuring:
Southern Highlands Express
Plus rare footage of tank loco 3138 working the entire length of the Belmont branch line during the final years of operation.
