Picture this: A couple of mates armed with then-state-of-the-art cameras (mine was, and still is, a Canon EOS 630), train chasing in the Hunter Valley.

A visit to loco at Broadmeadow that morning revealed all the engines programmed for which trains and what time they were to whistle out. This gave us the running information we needed.

This sighting of 44228 leading 4502 and 4503 passing through Maitland Station with 6157 down Nth Coast freight at 17:15 is the fruit of the information gleaned at Broadmeadow Loco.

These days we have mobile internet/email and web-published  working timetables, plus a few other tricks up our sleeves to enable good real-time information for gunzelling.
