Cheers goes out to a good mate for forwarding this on - not sure from what publication or when this was originally published but none the less a really solid (& technical) article about Dreamworld's Steam trains from the perspective of one of the park's iconic steam train drivers (Teddy Hancox) that's well worth the read. Be sure to let us know your thoughts after you've finished reading.  

(I've split the original PDF into individual JPG files to get around Parkz' 7mb file limit)

Fairly sure Peter left last year.

You are correct Evie, Peter left Dreamworld last year. 

Thanks for sharing the article Slick. It’s a great read and anyone who has any sort of appreciation for the park should have a read, and if you just thought that perhaps “they are just trains, who cares”, well the article should highlight why those engines were so important to the park. 

I for one hope we see the Baldwin, a World War 1 veteran return to regular service soon. The park is poorer for not having them running.
