Today's historic pic: 1964-built 8 cylinder EMD 567CR-engined diesel loco T369 hauls a broad gauge bulk train on the Newport line at Footscray, Vic, November 9 1986. Could this have been VHAY wagons carrying sand from Nyora to the Spotswood AGM glass plant? T369 still runs today with Watco in Perth.

Interestingly, livestock trains still run today in western Queensland by Watco under the brand CattleTrain. Three weekly trains are timetabled on this line from Cloncurry to Brisbane and Julia Creek to Rockhampton loading at Maxwelton and Hughenden but not Charters Towers

Conquering ancestral grime with elbow grease & alchemy is one of the many joys of an old house.
I’m working—and wafting—Eau de Watco Rejuvenating Oil today.
Notes of:
🎨 painter’s studio spirits tang,
🌳 whisper of teak,
🔥🧯and 100% don’t-light-my-fire flammable!
Call it hardware store couture. 🛠️✨🤷🏻♀️

ex-VR loco (X37) is bound for Perth to work on the Watco container shuttles.
X37 was the first 2nd series X class, delivered on 9 April 1970 & served on mainline ops until 2015. It escaped conversion to an XR class or scrapping like other 2nd series Xs.

All the canned finishes are too shiny for my taste out of the can. Minwax “tung oil” looks the same as the Watco danish, but it’s way shinier. Also the only one to fuck itself up by leaching finish out onto the red oak’s surface after I wiped it down.
It’s ok, but it probably doesn’t replace Watco.

Spent hours yesterday and will spend hours today going over beat-up 120 year old woodwork with steel wool, Goof Off, a stain marker, and finally Watco Danish Oil. It's not rocket science, but nobody else on the crew can muster the patience to do this. At least they're not painting everything white.

this Danish Oil finish on walnut is just amazing, look at this color difference. it's even more striking in person, you see it shimmer as you move your eyes. and it's the easiest thing to apply, you just rub it on with a paper towel
