Photograph, Steam locomotive D-639 Vintage train excursion, Hurstbridge to Eltham, near Wattletree Road, Eltham North, c.1970, 1970
View appears to be from near Coolabah Drive looking northwest across parts of Edendale Farm and to the oval near the present day Adventure Playground and Wattletree Road. Possibly run in conjunction with the Eltham Community Festival or the Hurstbridge Wattle Festival; the steam train would conduct trips between Eltham and Hurstbridge Railway stations. As there is no turning table at Hurstbridge, the locomotive would simply shunt from one end of the carriages to the other to reverse direction, hence the locomotive is running in reverse as it approaches Eltham Station.Digital TIFF file Scan of 35mm Ilford HP4 black and white transparencyd-639, edendale farm, eltham festival, eltham north, eltham north adventure playground, george coop collection, hurstbridge wattle festival, steam engine, vintage train excursion, wattletree road -

Photograph, Birch Cottage, Eltham-Yarra Glen Road, c.1970, 1970
GC advised that when they first arrived in Eltham in the late 1960s, he would enjoy driving out to Yarra Glen. The Eltham-Yarra Glen road was unmade at the time. He passed this residence on the north side of the road. It was totally remote. GC found the juxtaposition of this little cottage with its surburban wire gate out in the remoteness of the landscape intriguing. Since then the road has been reconstructed and diverted away from the cottage which is now owned by Parks Victoria.Digital TIFF file Scan of 35mm Ilford HP4 black and white transparencyIlford HP4birch cottage, christmas hills, early settlers, edwin samuel birch, eltham-yarra glen road, honor mary birch, honor mary williams, john hill, watsons creek -

Photograph, Wheat train derailment near the yards of Dunolly Railway Station, Dunolly, Victoria, c.1983, 1983
GC visited Dunolly with his late father-in-law who used to be a gold miner up there. They were going past the station and noticed a wheat train had derailed in the yards and so he took the opportunity to photograph the goings-on. The fellow in the light grey slacks and beige shirt with tie approached GC and asked him what he was doing. He proposed that GC leave or alternatively, take as many photographs as he desired and then send him a complete set of prints, which GC did.Digital TIFF file Scan of 35mm Kodak Kodachrome colour positve transparencyKodak Kodachromederailment, dunolly, dunolly railway station, george coop collection, t-364, t-383, t-383 locomotive, t-class diesel electric locomotive, victorian railways, wheat train, y-150, y-class diesel electric locomotive -

Photograph, Pepper's Paddock, Wattle Glen, c.1927, 1927c
Originally dated in pen on reverse as 1920 then crossed out to 1925 but it must be post August 1926 due to presence of an electric train. However no sign of the Sunnyside Estate development (1926?) although most of it could be over the hill out of shot. The furrows suggest that the paddock had been an orchard (probably apple).Digital copy of black and white photographelectric train, hurstbridge railway line, railway line, wattle glen, pepper's paddock -
