Static display with a canopy that looks simple yet effective and probably not too expensive. Not too obtrusive either.

Excuse me Bob, it IS kind of hard to see, but isn't this a Mogul instead of a 4-6-0?

It could be a 2-6-0. Perhaps someone versed in Australian steam can tell us.

Thanks Bob for finding this picture; it is a good picture of a well-kept engine under a nice shelter.

The engine itself is Y82; a 3ft 6in gauge 2-6-0 built for the South Australian Railways by Beyer, Peacock & Co. in 1888; construction number 2909.

Hope this helps; thanks again for taking the trouble to share your finds with us.
