The Southern Highlands Express to Goulburn was the last passenger service to be regularly hauled by steam out of Sydney.
This silent footage from 1964 conjures the romance of the age of steam as we see 3803 on its return trip from Goulburn to Sydney, stopping all stations to Campbelltown and filling up with water at Moss Vale.
Jim Powe shoots the train in glorious colour on 16mm film from a variety of vantage points and captures the train rounding a curve well known to rail enthusiasts at Maldon outside Picton.
