Australia Railroad

 

I arrived in Sidney Australia on August 2, 1990.  It is a 14 1/2 hour flight from California and even a Boeing 747 seems to shrink after so many movies and so many meals.  After clearing customs and immigration, I caught a cab to the train station for a trip south to Nowra, New South Wales.  Just prior to my arrival, the southeast coast of Australia had one of the 100 year rains, and things were rather flooded here and there.  The rivers and waterfalls were full and spectacular.  

The Australia Railroad runs a commuter service from Sydney to the outlaying areas.  Nowra is only one of the runs, and where my wife was at the time.  This photographic record of the trip should give you a feeling of how the commuter service of Australia looks.
