Title: International recognition
Post by: Wayne Laepple on September 30, 2016, 09:06:33 PM
Today I received September issue of "Narrow Gauge," the quarterly magazine of the Puffing Billy Preservation Society in Victoria, Australia. The WW&F rated two pages of the magazine's 32 pages. On one page was a report by my friend Russ Hicks about Rick and Brenda Sisson's visit to the railway last November. Rick especially wanted to see the brand new Baldwin-style cylinder half-saddle casting made for the PBR. On the opposite page was the map of the WW&F and three photos I had sent to Russ.

I'll have the magazine with me next week for anyone who might want to have a look, and I plan to give it to Rick since there are a couple of photos of him (and Brenda) included. I should also mention that Rick and Brenda met up with Linc Reed-Nickerson, a long-time WW&F member who works part-time at the PBR.
