High Iron
2021 offered so much potential after a steam free year in 2020, so the few trips that were eventually able to operate before COVID lockdowns took hold again were a rarity to be cherished.
Trips from Melbourne to Ballarat via “The Straight” through Bacchus Marsh require a long continuous climb for many kilometres up ingliston Bank on the edge of the Werribee George State Park.
Straddling the narrow Ironbark Gully, this bridge has been an iconic location for photographers for many years, each one bringing new challenges as the trees get taller. I took the opportunity of the two locos, R711 and A2 986 leading a train to Ballarat to try my hand at a new for me angle, up on the shoulder of the steep embankment near the bridge.
It was great to get a couple of nice shots, this one being my favourite, before listening to the engines continue their climb for several minutes, while figuring out how to get down without breaking a leg.
