August 2007 - Inspiration...



Like many modellers, key inspiration for Shelley Railways comes from actual operations and locations. Above are a few of the photos taken in anticipation of a possible extension to Pygmy Possum Valley in the Australian Alps. These were taken at Charlotte's Pass, Perisher Valley and at Bullock's Flat in late Spring. The Australian Alpine style both of the natural and built world is quite distinct from those seen around the world and I may try to capture some of this flavour to make an authentic Australian Alpine railway.
