In Days Of Old - LRCD001
Year released: 1974 (LP), 2002 (CD)

Recorded between 1970 and 1973, this CD captures the last days of regular steam on the New South Wales Government Railways. 
Hear the sounds of steam as they really were:

* 3820 roars around Hawkmount with the Newcastle Flyer
* 6039+6009 lift a 1200-tonne coal train up the 1-in-44 grade of Fassifern from a standing start
* 3246 pulling the last regular steam-hauled train in Australia.

Digitally remastered from the original record master tapes produced in 1974 to obtain the best stereo sound quality possible.
