BR Wickham railbus waiting at Perth station, in September 1959. These had entered service in 1958, and had suffered from underframe problems at various times.. One was withdrawn after four years service, in December 1963, and the rest were all gone by October 1966. None survived into preservation, but a similar-looking departmental example - the Elliot Track Recording Coach - has survived, and now has passenger seating fitted.

With the emergence of automotrices and autorails — self-propelled railcars and railbuses — around 1930, car manufacturers started to focus on railways. The Autorail Bugatti stood apart because of its streamlined design and a very high speed.
In September 1937, NSWGR introduced 6 4-wheel railbuses for use where low passenger numbers did not justify a railmotor. No 1, was smaller than later builds, and within a few months had been converted to a PayBus to pay staff in remote areas. Nos 2-5, introduced at the same time, were 81cm longer and 66cm wider. FP2 lasted 5 years at Harden before conversion to PayBus while stablemate FP6 was converted in 1939, FP3 and FP4 (pictured) lasted less than 2 years on Cowra-Grenfell services before con
Steam locomotive of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways (German: Harzer Schmalspurbahnen or HSB) en route from the town of Wernigerode to the Brocken (the highest point (1,141 m) of the Harz mountains). The Harz Narrow Gauge Railways is a network of 1,000 mm gauge railways in the Harz mountains, in central Germany. It connects the principal towns of Wernigerode, Nordhausen and Quedlinburg and several smaller towns in the area with about 140 kilometres of track, much of which is steeply graded and picturesque. The most popular destination on the network is the Brocken, an old Soviet listening post on top of the tallest peak in the Harz mountains, accessed by a spiral railway line, the Brocken Railway. The railway is notable for running a significant number of its trains with steam haulage, mostly employing 1950s vintage 2-10-2 tank locomotives, hauling traditional open-platform bogie carriages. The trains run daily to a timetable and it operates more than ten steam locomotives and seven diesel railbuses. Stoomlocomotief van de Harzer Smalspoorbanen (Duits: Harzer Schmalspurbahnen of HSB) onderweg van de stad Wernigerode naar de Brocken (met 1.141 meter het hoogste punt van het Harz middelgebergte). De spoorwijdte is 1000 millimeter (meterspoor). De standaardspoorbreedte; normaalspoor is 1435 millimeter. De Harzer Schmalspurbahnen GmbH (HSB) is, met een totale spoorlengte van 140,4 kilometer, het grootste smalspoorbedrijf van Duitsland. De HSB vervoert circa 1 miljoen mensen per jaar. De HSB heeft in totaal 44 stations, 25 stoomlocomotieven, 16 diesellocomotieven, 10 motorwagens en circa 230 werknemers. ____________________________ All rights reserved.
