PANSY in the POST
The Richmond-Kurrajong Railway was honoured recently when the Richmond Stamp Show produced a special heritage cover that showed Pansy at Kurrajong Station.

HERITAGE ITEMS DONATED
StateRail has undertaken the immense task of sorting out their Heritage Collection. Items that are not considered part of the core collection are being distributed to various Rail Heritage groups. We were invited
to tender for some items and were successful in obtaining a number of them. We recently collected them from the Heritage store. For the full story and plenty of photos see

PANSY in CYBERSPACE
A couple of years ago Rails in Cyberspace covered a site that had a simulation for the Kurrajong line that ran on the railroad simulator, TRAINZ. The site has moved and been improved. It now includes a movie file that covers a trip on the simulation from Richmond to Kurrajong. While you donīt see everything along the line many landmarks are clearly visible. The view varies from on the train to flying over the line.
