ver since I was small boy of 10, I have always had
an interest in trains. It all started when my family
began taking annual summer holidays to the Blue
Mountains situated a short distance just west of Sydney,
Australia.
I would lie in bed and listen to double-headed steam loco-
motives climb the mountain from the plains below. The
chuff of their exhaust was always out of sync, and being an
impressionable young boy, that sound has stayed with me
ever since.
