THE Australian Railway Historical Society (ACT Division) has been in touch with the thrilling news that after a 7 year restoration their titanic Garrett steam engine is close to running.

“6029 will be in steam this Friday and Saturday, if all goes well it will move under its own power around the museum tracks,” said Alan Gardnerof ARHS-ACT.

There’s more information on this huge project on the restoration’s blog.

This is a special one for the trainspotters.
