Puffing Billy, Australia’s oldest surviving steam railway and the last of the experimental narrow-gauge railway lines built at the turn of the twentieth century to help develop rural areas.
The 25-kilometre journey winds through thick forests and lush fern-filled gullies from Belgrave to Emerald Lake and Gembrook.

This website was taken down in 2014, but in 2023 I decided to resurrected it and bring it back online, as it is now over 20 years old, expect bugs and features to no longer work as they once did.
The website is 90GB in size and contains approx 30,000 photos taken by us between 2003-2011, it is hosted at home on an old HP Proliant NAS running Lotus Domino 8.5 and spanning across multiple databases.
