Adelaide Metro DMU at Belair |
| Description: |
A pair of Adelaide Metro DMUs sit at the Belair station on a beautiful Sunday morning. This is the 'end of the line' for DMU ops, being a roughly thirty-minute ride up the Adelaide Hills from the city on the 5'3" broad-gauge. The 3100-class cars were built in the early to mid-1990s by Clyde; each one has a 475HP Mercedes-Benz V12 for power. |

Belair, SA |
| Description: |
The depot and tracks at Belair, South Australia, looking southwest and only a 30 minute ride on an Adelaide Metro DMU from downtown. The suburb of Adelaide is near the summit of the climb over the Adelaide Hills, which features grades up to 2.5%. The area behind the tracks is a National Park which features walking trails and is full of Magpies, Kookaburras and Cockatoos. This is a delightful place to watch trains. |

Imported Wig-Wag |
| Description: |
A Wig-Wag signal preserved and displayed by the depot at Belair, South Australia- it's a Magnetic Flagman from the Magnetic Signal CO of Los Angeles CA. "Caution-Stop" doesn't need translation; and works because "Look Out for the Bloody Train" probably wouldn't have fit. |
