Peter brings love of railways to his home

The July 5, 2018 issue of the Junee Southern Cross featured Pete’s Hobby Railway three times.

First was a “News Headline Banner” on the 4-page wrap around advertising feature for the paper’s new Digital Subscriptions.

Then the the Featured Image on the regular Front Page showcased Peter standing in front of the Perry Steam Locomotive (incorrectly referred to as the Hunslet in the caption) and a short teaser article.

Page Four contains the main article, taking about 3/4 of the page. The story details how Peter came to own many of his locomotives and how they ended up in his front yard in Junee (after having been stabled in a suburban block in the Sydney suburb of Loftus for over 40 years)
