Chronological Activities for 2015

Otford Station is a quiet place in the midst of the bush, though surrounded by some homes hidden by trees. A heritage train was due on Australia Day, so first step was to check out the station, then returning to record the train passing.

A trailer and details of Crocker Island Exodus.

The family gathered at Sweet Chili, Caringbah to celebrate Marina's birthday

A rare treat - 3 astronomical objects in close proximity in the sky. Venus and Jupiter have been close together for a week or more, and for people in eastern Australia, especially around Sydney, the International Space Station will pass by them as well a little after sunset.

There was a second conjunction, where the ISS flew over a plane landing at Sydney airport.

Farewell to George Street buses, that is. Part of the new light rail project, and George Street civilising, buses no longer use much of George Street. Cars will be stopped from sections of the street starting late October 2015. So to mark the end of an era, the Sydney Bus and Truck Museum ran a number of their old buses for the travelling public's enjoyment or nostalgia. http://www.sydneybusmuseum.info/

Raw footage of steam trains in October and November, at Como and Otford. The first three trains are Kiama Picnic Trains, and the last two are the return of the Bomaderry to Berry shuttle ride train.
