Nice shot Phil.... has a feel of nostalgia to it.  The old track condition add interest to the shot.  I'm surprised they look so shiny.... could they still be in use?

G'day Peter

"are they still in use?" .......... certainly ~ there are 1/2-dozen freight trains and 2 passenger trains daily. The camera position was on the road crossing, now with booms and flashing lights and all the new-fangled stuff that goes with modern railways
