Victorian Railways T class

Deniliquin and Moama Railway Company No.1 with Mixed Train, at Deniliquin on the Opening Day, 4 July 1876.

The Victorian Railways T class, they were built from 1874 to 1885. The class started with 2 pattern engines from Beyer, Peacock & Co. in Manchester, England. Theses 2 engines where a passenger type 2-4-0, and a goods type 0-6-0, they become Victorian Railway’s (VR) numbers 98 and 125. No more of the classes where order from Beyer, Peacock & Co. by VR. The class in total had 23 engines.

continued below the cut

But the newly formed Deniliquin and Moama Railway Company (D&MR) order 2 of the goods class in 1875 and D&MR would order 2 more in the next 2 years. The 4 engines owned by D&MR would get larger timber cabins for crew comfort and given tenders with 6 wheels. They were fired by the local redgum instead of coal. D&MR was apparently fitted with a diamond shaped funnel with a screen in it to help reduce the chance of fires starting from the cinders.

A decade later would see Solomon Mirls the newly appointed locomotive superintendent of VR, suggesting that 18 more engines based on the design of No.125 with modifications. Phoenix foundry in Ballarat, Australia was appointed the contract for the class. Theses engines were given the odd numbers from 249 to 283, from 1884-1885. The class was given the classification of the T class. The class looked like the 4 the D&MR ran.

class T no.94 built as No.265, Newport Railway Museum unknown date.

Between 1901 and 1906, all of engines of both the T and F classes, except class T No.281, were reboilered with a new design incorporating Ramsbottom safety valves and a boiler pressure of 160 psi (1,100 kPa) increased from 130 psi (900 kPa).

The engines were withdrawn from 1915 to 1953, as newer engines were taking their places. 5 where scrapped in 1916, Two were sold; No.279 in 1915 to Baxter & Saddler for track construction in South Australia and No.267 in 1921 to the Kerang and Koondrook Tramway. On the Kerang and Koondrook Tramway, No.267 was unofficially named "Bucking Kate" until withdrawn in 1951 and returned to the Victorian Railways. the fate of No.279 is unknown. The 4 owned by D&MR were acquired by VR No.1, No.2 and No.4 were transported to the Bendigo railways workshops and broken up. D&MR No.3 was a part of the 1924 engine renumbering scheme becoming the new No.96. 6 other engines in the class were renumbered from No.90 to No.95.

Museum Collection – Newport Railway Museum

16 more of the class were scraped between 1926 to 1933. The last 2 engines of the class No.92 and No.94 where modified, had their central driving wheel flanges removed retaining the outer sets and had their tenders replaced with ones from Baldwin W Class engines. They were withdrawn from service in 1953 and No.92 would be scrapped. No.94 was saved and cosmetically restored for the 1954 Victorian Railways centenary and was displayed at Spencer Street Station in its original lined Brunswick green livery and with a funnel taken from a withdrawn NA class locomotive. After the celebrations, it was placed into long term storage. In January 1962, it was donated to the then new Australian Railway Historical Society Museum (now the Newport Railway Museum) at Newport, Victoria and become one of the first exhibits at the museum.  Sometime after this, the centenary funnel was swapped with a larger one from NA class 12A, at an unknown time.

Last week Homewood glued himself to a nine-metre metal pole erected in the middle of a road at the entrance of the Port of Melbourne’s Appleton Dock. Traffic was stopped for two hours before emergency service workers could separate him from the pole and remove him from the site. He was not acting alone. Homewood was one of 21 activists connected to the group Blockade Australia arrested across five mornings last week for shutting down major ports in Melbourne, Brisbane and Newcastle. ... Blockade Australia is one of several organisations, including Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil, using direct action techniques to try to shake people from what they see as climate complacency. Activists have stopped traffic, smashed windows, superficially defaced major artworks, blocked coal trains and interfered with fossil fuel conferences. ... Three of the protesters in Queensland are charged with endangering the safety of vehicles and related transport infrastructure, a crime that carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment. ... Zelda Grimshaw, a media spokesperson for Blockade Australia, says the group will not be swayed. She says the NSW police had tried to “smash our network” last year by infiltrating a training camp in NSW’s Colo Valley but the port mobilisation showed the group had “come back like the hydra, threefold”. The message to governments, she says, is that they “cannot solve climate breakdown with jail sentences and anti-protest legislation”. “They are shooting at the fire alarms rather than putting out the fire.”

Meet Doug Taylor and Dale Campbell, both Park Rangers in the Tjoritja-West Macdonnell National Park.

As Arrertne people, Dale and Doug both have a deep cultural connection to this region. Dale shares that as a “born and bred Alice Springs local, working out on Tjoritja-West McDonald National Park is a privilege because I'm working out on my Country, my family's country. It’s the best."

Sharing feelings of pride to be caring for Country and walking the pathways of their ancestors Doug says, “I’m an Arrertne person, so for me this is ancestral Country. As a ranger, it’s great that I can work on the Country of my ancestors, and at the same time exchange that knowledge with visitors, the significance of the ranges, because there’s so many important sites through here and along the trail.”

Based at spectacular Simpsons Gap, they manage a section of the world-famous Larapinta Trail. The 223km trail is divided into twelve sections that each take one or two days to complete. It stretches from Mparntwe (Alice Springs) to Rwetyepme (Mt Sonder). Dale tells us that “hundreds and hundreds of hikers come through the trail every year now. It’s one of the most spectacular hiking trails here in Australia. It gives you the whole overview of what the West Macdonnell Ranges are all about.”

Dale explains some of the work that the Ranger team does to maintain the trails and safety of walkers, as well as show us some of the incredible plants in bloom in the desert. “As you can see the country’s quite dry right now. Well up to 40°C, sometimes 50°C summer days. Being a park ranger, we provide water to the Lara-trail tanks, service the toilet blocks, even provide assistance for hikers that are injured. We also provide a bit of knowledge of the place. Giving education to them is one of the key things.”

Dale shows us the resurrection fern Cheilanthes lasiophylla. “After any bit of moisture that we get in Central Australia, the resurrection fern fingers will open and come back to life. After the moisture dries up, they eventually curl back up and go back to sleep.” Doug shows us an Eremophila freelingii in which “the honeyeaters have extracted all the nectar out” of the flowers.

People travel to Alice Springs from all over the world to experience not just the physical challenge of the hike, but also the spiritual connection to this ancient landscape. The plants, animals, waterholes and rock formations found here are deeply significant to the creation stories of the Arrernte people, including parts of the Akngwelye and Yeperenye Altyerre (Wild Dog and Caterpillar) dreaming stories.

"Our rangers' role is very, very diverse and different. It's so good for us as work, because we're not just doing one thing, we're doing lots of different things. Things like fire management, weed management, as well looking after the trail. It's a fantastic role and I feel very fortunate to be doing it” says, Doug. “Also, for our young people here, they have opportunities to be rangers. That’s what we want, we want our young people to work the country of their ancestors and feel good about it because this is their home. What better place to come to work, I mean – what an office!”

WOOLLY CLOAK-FERN - Cheilanthes lasiophylla

ROCK FUCHSIA BUSH - Eremophila freelingii

The Restrict Act 2023

About the Restrict Act

There’s a lot of information/misinformation I’ve been seeing about the Restrict Act. I’ve stared at the damn bill for around thirty hours at this point, so I thought I’d give people a summary of what it’s actually doing as well as what it isn’t doing, to help you avoid misinformation.

Buckle in, folks, because this is going to be a long post. I know Tumblr is allergic to nuance, but hopefully you’ll be able to see both the good and the bad in this bill by the time I’m done, and be able to understand what’s actually going on. If you just want to see problems with the act, the last section is devoted to that.

tl;dr good in spirit because of the rising rate of infrastructure cyberattacks, but the letter of the law could use a little work to make sure that the government can't overstep

Why the Restrict Act?

Let’s start with the why. Why does the US government feel like this Act is necessary? The stated purpose is: “To authorize the Secretary of Commerce to review and prohibit certain transactions between persons in the United States and foreign adversaries, and for other purposes.” Which is a bunch of legalese, so I’ll give you some examples of things that are happening in the real world which the government wants more authority to look into.

The author of the bill, Sen. Warner, specifically cited Huawei and Kapersky as companies that were doing Suspicious Things, so we’ll look at those first.

Huawei: Huawei is a telecommunications company. The US, Australia, Canada, Sweden, UK, Lithuania, and Estonia have all taken various actions against Huawei over the last decade or so. In 2012, a malicious software update was installed on Huawei devices in Australia, attacking Australia’s telecommunications network. In 2021, a Washington Post review suggested that Huawei was involved in mass surveillance programs. In 2014, a Huawei engineer was caught hacking a cell phone tower in India

Kapersky: The UK, Lithuania, the Netherlands, the EU, Germany, and Italy have all taken action against Kapersky. This company produces antivirus software, and was accused of working on secret projects with Russia’s Federal Security Service, especially in the wake of Russian interference in the 2016 election. Allegedly, the company used the popular antivirus software to secretly scan for classified documents and other information, and allegedly stole NSA information.

In addition to these two companies, there have been tons of cyberattacks worldwide.

Half of the United States’ fuel supply was compromised due to a hack on Colonial Pipeline, shutting down fuel for some areas in the American southeast for days

A hacking group disrupted Iranian steel factories and even started a fire

Costa Rica had to declare a national emergency after government systems were hit, including systems for exports, pensions, taxes, welfare, and even Covid-19 testing.

A ransomware attack caused a major outage to emergency health services in the UK

The stated purpose of this act is to give the USA some kind of formal process to make decisions when something like this is suspected of happening, and when it’s caused by a “foreign adversary.”

What’s a foreign adversary?

A foreign adversary is a country that has engaged in a “long-term pattern or serious instances of conduct significantly adverse to the national security of the United States or security and safety of United States persons.”

The bill kindly provides us with a list of six countries that fit this description: China(including Hong Kong), Cuba, Iran, Korea, Russia, and Venezuela

The Secretary of Commerce can add/remove countries to this list at any time, as long as Congress is informed within 15 days of the reasoning behind that decision.

Once Congress is informed, Congress can disagree via joint resolution (So both Houses have to vote to disagree with the Secretary of Commerce’s decision). If Congress disagrees, there’s a whole complicated process for getting the label added/removed.

We’ll get into the ethics later, in the Genuine Problems section.

For the rest of this post, I’ll be saying Scary Countries instead of foreign adversaries, so that it’s easier for people to understand.

What is the United States allowed to investigate using this Act?

So first we’re going to define some things, because the Act is very specific about what the United States can investigate.

The bill defines something called a “covered transaction,” which is basically a financial or technological action taken by a Scary Country or on behalf of a Scary Country. For the rest of this post, I’ll be saying Scary Action instead of covered transaction.

The bill also defines something called a “covered holding,” which is essentially any group that is partially or fully owned by a Scary Country, on behalf of a Scary Country, or that falls under a Scary Country’s jurisdiction, even with degrees of separation. The group has to affect either 1+ million Americans or has to have sold 1+ million units of a tech product to Americans. This group is usually a company, but it can be other things, too. For the rest of this post, I’ll be saying Scary & Important Group instead of covered holding.

The Secretary of Commerce is allowed to find/investigate/stop any Scary Action or Scary & Important Group that wants to do one of the following:

sabotage information and communications tech in the US

damage critical infrastructure or the digital economy of the US

interfere with a Federal election

undermine democratic processes

Pose any other unacceptable risk to the USA.

This is a list of Really Bad Things, so from now on I’m going to call it the List of Really Bad Things.

If it’s a Scary & Important Group instead of a Scary Action, the Secretary will refer the information to the President, who will then decide what to do to stop the threat. Otherwise, if it’s just a Scary Action, the Secretary has the authority to stop it.

If the Secretary finds out that something Scary is going on and that it falls under the List of Really Bad Things, the Secretary is REQUIRED to publish information in a DECLASSIFIED form about why they thought there was a threat and what was done to stop it, as long as none of the information is already classified. (This is a good thing!)

Process

First, the Secretary is given authority to find and investigate Scary Actions and Scary & Important Groups. The Secretary is also allowed to delegate this to Federal officials. Something key here is that the bill says that Federal officials can only have investigative powers that are “conferred upon them by any other Federal law.” They don’t get any extra powers. Anyone who tells you otherwise is panicking too hard to properly read the bill.

So what happens if, in the course of investigation, the Secretary finds out that a Scary Action or Scary & Important Group is trying to do a Really Bad Thing? Simple. The Attorney General will bring the case to an “appropriate district court.” The max fine for a civil penalty for an individual here is $250,000. For a criminal penalty for an individual, the max fine is $1 million and/or 20 years in prison, as well as giving up any of the things they used to do Really Bad Stuff with.

If someone is found guilty, they can appeal that decision, but only to the District of Columbia Circuit. Note that this is only for appeals! Otherwise, everything will be through the normal federal district courts.

If the appeal fails, too, the US will file all of the information that they used to make any big decisions with the court, and will give the defendant all of the information that is not classified, so that the defendant can ask for a full review.

Once the United States has stopped a Scary Action or a Scary & Important Group from doing Really Bad Things, it’s illegal to go around/against any of the actions that US has taken to do that.

Specifically, the bill says that “no person may cause or aid, abet, counsel, command, induce, procure, permit, or approve the doing of any act prohibited by, or the omission of any act required by any regulation, order, direction, mitigation measure, prohibition, or other authorization or directive issued under, this Act.”

Yes, this is legitimately scary. We’ll get into the ethics later, in the Genuine Problems section.

Myths

The bill gives the USA power to ban VPNs!

No. Unless the VPN company is trying to do one of the Really Bad Things under the instruction of a Scary Country or is suspected of doing one of the Really Bad Things, the VPN company will be fine.

The bill gives the USA power to investigate way more than they could before!

No. “In conducting investigations described in paragraph (1), designated officers or employees of Federal agencies described that paragraph may, to the extent necessary or appropriate to enforce this Act, exercise such authority as is conferred upon them by any other Federal law, subject to policies and procedures approved by the Attorney General” (emphasis mine).

Important here is “exercise such authority as is conferred upon them by any other Federal law” — this act is not giving them additional leeway. Really, the USA is making use of the lack of privacy that’s already baked into law in order to investigate.

If TikTok is banned and I use a VPN to access it, I could go to jail for 20 years!

Possible but severely unlikely, at least according to this law. Let’s go through some scenarios:

Scenario 1: The USA takes TikTok to court. In the decision, the USA says the TikTok app is no longer allowed to be on any app store. In this case, using a VPN to access TikTok would still be allowed, since the ban is for TikTok’s actions, not US citizens’ actions.

Scenario 2: The USA takes TikTok to court. In the decision, the USA says that TikTok is required to have some kind of filter banning US IP addresses. In this case, using a VPN to access TikTok would still be allowed, since the ban is for TikTok’s actions, not US citizens’ actions.

Scenario 3: The USA enacts a law forbidding citizens from accessing TikTok. This is unlikely, since the USA would have to have an entirely separate non-court procedure to do this, which is only kind of in the scope of the law. I guess it’s possible, but it’s skating on thin ice. In this case, using a VPN to access TikTok would be a crime. 4. If you’re charged, you have to go to the DC Circuit Court and not any of the other courts!

Actually, you’d first be charged under an ordinary district court in your state. If you decide to appeal, however, then you have to appeal to DC.

Genuine Problems

Adding a Scary Country to the list seems really easy. There’s nothing to stop the government from adding every single country to the list and then investigating every single action. Granted, it’s highly unlikely that this would happen, simply because then the amount of information would be difficult to go through, but it’s possible.

In the list of Really Bad Things, there’s an additional list item saying “otherwise poses an undue or unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States or the safety of United States persons.” Who determines that?

The definition of a Scary Action is ridiculously broad. It covers any financial or technology-related action. That could refer to a lot of different things.

While the bill is clearly intended only to prosecute people doing Really Bad Things, the wording is kind of vague in some places, and could be used to prosecute others, too.

Specifically, I’m thinking about this clause:

“no person may cause or aid, abet, counsel, command, induce, procure, permit, or approve the doing of any act prohibited by, or the omission of any act required by any regulation, order, direction, mitigation measure, prohibition, or other authorization or directive issued under, this Act”

Yeah this could definitely be used for overreach. It’s far too broad. If there was an infrastructure attack on the USA that affected the police dept, and an ACAB armchair activist tweeted “haha karma” would that count as grounds for prosecution? I have a genuine problem with this clause. The loopholes here are ridiculously large.

Overall, it seems as though this bill is aimed at large companies rather than citizens, but there are definitely loopholes for the government to exploit.

Shellharbour Asbestos Removal: Protect Your Home & Health

Asbestos was once widely used in construction, but today, we understand the serious risks it poses. If your property contains asbestos, it’s crucial to handle it safely. Shellharbour asbestos removal services ensure that harmful fibers are eliminated without putting your health in danger. In this guide, we’ll discuss why asbestos is a hazard, how to detect it, and why professional removal is the only safe option.

Why Asbestos is a Silent Danger

For years, asbestos was praised for its durability and fire resistance. However, when asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, they release tiny fibers into the air. Once inhaled, these fibers can cause serious diseases like mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer.

Many older homes and buildings in Shellharbour still contain asbestos, particularly in roofing, walls, and flooring. The problem? You may not even realize it’s there. That’s why a professional inspection is critical before any renovations or demolitions.

How to Identify Asbestos in Your Property

Asbestos can be hidden in various parts of your home, making it difficult to detect without professional testing. Common areas where asbestos may be found include:

Ceiling and wall insulation

Vinyl flooring and adhesives

Roofing materials and cement sheets

Pipe insulation and textured coatings

If your home was built before the 1990s, there’s a chance it contains asbestos. However, you should never attempt to identify or remove it yourself—disturbing asbestos without proper safety measures can release dangerous fibers into the air.

The Safe & Effective Asbestos Removal Process

Removing asbestos requires precision and strict safety protocols. Professional Shellharbour asbestos removal teams follow a regulated process to ensure safety. Here’s what the process typically involves:

Inspection & Testing – Specialists collect samples to determine if asbestos is present.

Containment & Preparation – The area is sealed off to prevent airborne fibers from spreading.

Careful Removal – Licensed professionals use specialized tools and protective gear to safely extract asbestos materials.

Proper Disposal – The asbestos waste is securely packed and transported to an approved disposal site.

Air Monitoring & Cleaning – Experts ensure that all asbestos traces are eliminated before reopening the area.

By hiring experienced professionals, you ensure that asbestos is removed safely and legally, without putting yourself or others at risk.

The Risks of DIY Asbestos Removal

Many people consider DIY asbestos removal to save costs, but this decision can be extremely dangerous. Without proper equipment, protective gear, and disposal methods, you risk exposing yourself and your family to toxic fibers.

Additionally, improper handling of asbestos can lead to hefty fines. Australia has strict asbestos regulations, and only licensed professionals are permitted to remove and dispose of asbestos safely. Protect yourself—always opt for professional Shellharbour asbestos removal services.

Choosing the Right Asbestos Removal Specialists in Shellharbour

Not all asbestos removal companies are the same. When selecting a service provider, look for these key factors:

Certification & Licensing – Ensure they have the necessary permits and follow Australian safety standards.

Experience & Reputation – Check reviews and past projects to gauge reliability.

Comprehensive Services – A good provider offers inspection, removal, disposal, and post-cleanup testing.

Transparent Pricing – Get a detailed quote upfront to avoid hidden costs.

Final Thoughts: Don’t Wait—Remove Asbestos Safely Today

Asbestos exposure can have long-term health effects, but with the right approach, you can eliminate the risk. If you suspect asbestos in your home, don’t delay—contact a professional Shellharbour asbestos removal service today. Your health and safety are worth it.

How Test and Tag Services Can Help the Entertainment Industry

In the entertainment industry, safety and reliability are paramount, particularly when dealing with large-scale events, lighting rigs, sound systems, and various electrical devices.

To help you learn more, here are some ways test and tag services can benefit the entertainment industry:

Ensures Compliance with Safety Standards

By identifying faulty or damaged equipment, test and tag services minimise the risk of electrical shocks, fires, and other hazards during events and performances. It also adheres to industry-specific safety regulations and electrical standards, such as AS/NZS 3760 in Australia, which mandates regular inspection and testing of electrical equipment.

Regular testing ensures that electrical equipment functions properly, allowing for timely repairs or replacements. Detailed test reports help schedule preventive maintenance, keeping equipment in peak condition. Remember that properly tested equipment operates more reliably, ensuring smooth operations in demanding environments like live events. By maintaining reliable equipment, the entertainment industry can deliver seamless experiences while lessening downtime and disruptions.

Prevents Injury to Cast and Crew

Regularly testing and tagging electrical equipment, such as lighting rigs, sound systems, and special effects devices, ensures they are functioning safely and meet compliance standards. Detecting frayed wires, damaged plugs, or other issues reduces the risk of electric shock, fires, or equipment malfunctions. Equipment that is well-maintained and inspected is less likely to fail during production, which could otherwise lead to accidents or interruptions. This proactive approach safeguards lives and enhances efficiency and reliability in high-pressure environments.

Ensures the Safety of the Audience

Test and tag processes can identify faulty wiring or components that could overheat or catch fire. This is especially critical in large venues where high-powered equipment is used. Special effects like pyrotechnics, fog machines, or lighting displays rely on electrical components. Ensuring that these are tagged and tested helps avoid accidents like fires or electrical failures during a live event. Also, a failure in the equipment used during a live performance, such as audio or visual systems, can create dangerous situations for the audience. By doing the test, you can ensure that all equipment is functioning properly and reduce the chance of malfunction. This practice protects the audience, builds trust, boosts confidence, and reduces legal or financial risks for entertainment venues and event organisers.

Enhances Equipment Longevity

Following a strict test and tag schedule ensures that equipment is regularly assessed for problems that could affect its performance. Staying on top of these tests helps catch any issues before they lead to equipment failure or require costly repairs. Some manufacturers may have warranty conditions that require regular testing of equipment, and complying with these conditions ensures that equipment remains under warranty for longer, potentially saving on repairs or replacement costs.

Provides Peace of Mind

When electrical equipment is tested and tagged regularly, the likelihood of malfunctioning or faulty equipment during a live performance, filming, or event is drastically reduced. This ensures that the event goes smoothly without unexpected interruptions, creating a sense of security for everyone involved. Do not forget that proper maintenance and timely identification of wear and tear prevent costly breakdowns and ensure that equipment remains in good working order for longer. This reduces the stress of unexpected failures, giving producers and crews peace of mind knowing their tools are reliable.

In the entertainment industry, the safety of all involved — from the performers and crew to the audience — is a top priority. Test and tag services ensure compliance with safety standards and contribute to the smooth operation of events, improve equipment longevity, and minimise the risk of accidents. By making testing and tagging an integral part of your safety protocol, you are taking proactive steps to guarantee a safer and more successful entertainment experience.
