Either of the extreme ends at Milton station are great photo op's.... diesel
hauled SX passenger sets in the mornings (0729, 0829), freight of all sorts
all day and night (electric and diesel-hauled), the Westlander from
Charleville on Wed. and Sat mornings around 1100-1200, the GSPE if you're
lucky, even the odd steam loco if it is being used coming up from
Redbank (?) ...
