Travel by train always sounds so fascinating. I love the old movies that take place on a train. A pleasure to read this, as I've seen so many things that are not. How neat that you played the piano on the train. That must have been fun. Very interesting, and well told. When you're speaking of a person, use who or whom instead of that. Great to include your postcard note. I envy you your train travel, and I know they are pleasant memories for you. judi

Dunno about movies on the train I didn't have those. Thanks for coming through. The other chapter I put up was a bit messy but I fixed it late last night if you wanna look.

A rail trip is something I have not had the pleasure to do. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read. Good Imagery.

Elaine's dad was the postmaster at the Tenterfield post office in the late 40s through the fifties, and said they used to visit their family in Melbourne during those years, Tenterfield to Albury, change trains at Albury then to Melbourne, so we have a connection. Well done, good luck with your hearing aid, finding it again, that was really wonderful, your parents getting married again, and better still meeting Louise during this time, what a blessing, Geoff, well done, bro, good scribing, blessings, Roy.

Comment from Jumbo J
Hi Sankey,(Large)
had such an enjoyable time traveling with you though the states... well three of them anyway. Yeah,used the trains a fair bit growing up, but haven't been on for years... guess I was younger back then and the body could take it.. Well, they were mostly rattlers back before the XPT.
Yeah, enjoyed reading your earlier adventures.
On this particular morning, dear Jim, the man who had done all the hard work...
With our thoughts we create,
an itinerary,
James.

Do I know you? have not seen you before. Wondering if you are a friend coming in as a 'undercover' bloke. Thanks for the great review. I thought I was close to a final book review but discovered some unmentioned stuff neded adding also more pictures all the way through. Let you know when full review or more chapters are ready for review or putting up again. Thanks, mate.

Nice to meet you James will look for your stuff love to be a fan as I can tell we are on the same page about most stuff anyway hehe. You are coming in real late on my autobiography but there will be plenty of Reviewing member dollars and stuff as we are re-doing some chapters then getting ready for the big REVIVE Certificate...after that trying to find a good mob that will help me self publish. Cheers.

By the way Geoff here. Not So Large now hehe ( I love the nick given to me by my bro goes with Louise my better half.) If you wanna read our Aussie trip stories they are on her Tootsie55 account no points left sorry we will close her account when it runs out in January I think. I lost 9 kgs recently working on getting down to 90 kilos if God will allow.

Well, good luck with the weight... I sit on around 110kg... yeah,wouldn't mind carving a few kg's off that... I go in and read Tootsie55(Louise)... always great to feel like your on a journey around your own country with good people.

Hi Sankey, I really enjoyed reading about your journey around New South Wales, Your description was so good I was almost there with you. It is a great shame that some of these wonderful places no longer exist my friend.

Hi Eric the places are, just not the rail services, sadly. Thanks for the great review. Still working on adding more pictures to old chapters and editing and maybe a chapter or two yet to be inserted. Thanks old friend.

You are very welcome my friend.

If you read my wife's stories about our holidays together you would see the awful time we had for three days on the Indian Pacific I also mention in here but much longer especially as a handicapped lady. If you have not seen hers look for Tootsie55 I am sorry there are no rewards on it now. Thanks so much for coming through. A lot more coming still chapters not finished working on as yet.
