Volume – 25 Number – 3 September to November 2018 Edition
Volume – 25 Number – 3 September to November 2018 Edition Steam locomotive 3801 (4-6-2) was operated by the New South Wales Government Railways between 1943 and 1976. It is arguably Australia’s most famous steam locomotive, being the only one to have visited all main line states and territories. The 38 Class numbered 30. The first 5 units, with the streamlined design, were built by Clyde Engineering, Granville, New South Wales. The other 25 units were built, semi-streamlined, at the New South Wales Eveleigh (even numbers) and Cardiff (odd numbers) Locomotive Workshops. 3801 entered service on 22 January 1943 and worked the “Newcastle Flyer” for the first time on 23 February 1943 to express passengers to and from Sydney. 2018 celebrates the 75th anniversary of this iconic steam locomotive. See page 9 for a history and restoration update.

Mortdale Matters
Welcome to the March-April 2014 edition of Mortdale Matters. It’s great to see younger members around the clubrooms of late; we are keeping our hobby alive and strong for years to come! On some housekeeping matters though, it would be greatly appreciated if we can respect others by talking at a lower voice level; be mindful of what you say; and just respect what people have to say, remembering we are all entitled to an opinion and opinions differ. A job well done to the U-Drive team who attended the 2014 “Thirlmere Festival of Steam”, doing a great job looking after the layout and promoting our association AMRA in NSW. Another top job to the event organisers and THNSW (NSWRTM)! There was lots to do, with a great country culture present. Unfortunately I did not get to have a good look around as I was working as a Passenger Attendant on the Thirlmere Flyer™ to Sydney, luckily I got to hear all about it on the fantastic trip back into town. 24 Hour Run: This year we saw a solid turnout for the 24 hour run, with numbers higher than previous years. Some of the younger members even managed an all-nighter (just!). It was great to see all scales come together, play trains and exchange stories. A big thank you to all the layout sub- committees for organising their layouts and keeping the team spirit high, special thanks to the BBQ crew who cooked breakfast on Saturday morning. April Open Day 2014: To be held on the 5th of April, members are more than welcome to run trains on the layout while guests may run their trains preferably after the event. -
20-Year State Infrastructure Strategy
Submission to Infrastructure SA: 20-Year State Infrastructure Strategy GENERAL The Pichi Richi Railway Preservation Society (PRRPS) is a rail based, tourism, not for profit organisation providing rail experiences between Quorn and Port Augusta. The Society started operation in 1974 from Quorn and extended to Pt Augusta in 2001. It has expanded its product range and length and is now 39 kilometres long and offering some 5 distinct products delivered by in excess of 69 train services per annum. The workshop facilities and main operations base are at Quorn. The customer base comprises intrastate, interstate and international visitors. Most of the customers have planned holidays around trips on one of rail services. As rail experiences are roughly ½ day in length, patrons of PRRPS’s services generally spend visitor nights at Quorn, Pt Augusta or close by. The PRRPS operates over the original Ghan railway line and given the Ghan’s history, interest and media exposure the term “Ghan” has strong brand recognition. The majority of customers have deliberately planned to visit the railway with a lesser number making a spur of the moment decision should they see a train in the Station. The society recognises the need to grow and along that line has appointed a Business Development Manager. The job is to specifically increase patronage but operating in a 2+ year time frame. A large proportion of bookings are made up to one year in advance which suggests pre-planning at some time before that. New products are in the planning stage including those which will enable us to operate in fire ban periods. -

The event passed unnoticed amongst the plethora of more noteworthy public occasions. Chapter 2 of this thesis records that a certain Mr. Sp"y, with his daily vanload of passengers and goods, started the first regular service operating between the City and Port Adelaide. The writer accords full credit to this unsung progenitor of the chain of events portrayed in the following pages, whose humble horse drawn char ò bancs set out on its inaugural joumey, in all probability on 28 January L839. lll ACKNO\ryLEDGMENTS I would like to record my grateful thanks to those who have given me assistance in gathering information for this thesis, and also those who have commented on specific items in the text.
