- Nathan and Cliff proudly display their Swedish gifts. The conductor's uniform of Nathan's with the windbreakers, issued to Swedish railway personel. The stainless steel mugs, well, they are etched with Cliff and Nathan’s last regular locomotive they had when they were a regular crew back in the old days, on 15F 3127.

- Prior to departure, the guard and driver pose in front of their locomotive for the day. 15F 3117 read to haul the Mothers Day train to Cullinan, with one of the name boards in Nathan's collection. The fancy outfit of Nathan's is a Swedish Conductor's, sent to him by FOTR member, Goran Enqvist, himself a driver on the SJ.

- A long partnership. Cliff Petzer and Nathan Berelowitz pose with their wonderful gift of an engraved stainless steel mug sent all the way from Sweden by fellow steam freak, Goran Enqvist. The sexy outfit Nathan is wearing is a Swedish conductor's uniform. Behind them is 15F 3117

I really like the "authentic" railway clothing. It just gives heritage rail operations that extra bit of flavour, well done FOTR!

Its a pity that they did away with the Passenger train Head Boards.
