Steam Trains IN Blacktown - 'whyilovemountdruitt'

How awesome is this photo of an old steam train passing through Blacktown station?

Light steam locomotives ran along the Blacktown to

Richmond line from 1864-1879. The original concept for

this line was actually to have horse-drawn trains, but in 

the end the government decided that three steam trains - 

named Windsor, Richmond and Sydney - would be the 

better option.
