Remember this picture every single time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970's. The cities we admire made better choices regarding cars, and are still making them today.

Better choices instead of excuses.

Looks like four broad gauge PN A Class locos are about to be scrapped. They've had a temporary fence put up around them at the north Dynon turntable. Poor old things.

Looks like a couple of the standard gauge are also lined up to be cut up. #trains #railways

Two Victorian A Class locomotives in Freight Australia livery await scrapping.
