Capturing the Webb era on the South Australian Railways, this scene of ‘big steam’ in the Adelaide Hills depicts Fred Shea’s 2-8-4 720 Class No. 735 approaching Belair Station while the 500 Class leader, 4-8-4 No. 500, heads the opposing goods train. The leading O Class bogie gondola wagon is filled with seven insulated produce containers.
