As we draw close to the end of another year of TDU (17 years old and counting) I want to thank all those who contribute and greet all those who just read - either via email or through the TDU archive at http://tdu.to

Thanks especially to Malcolm Miles for maintaining that much valued archive..

This years 'Christmas Pic' from me dates from soon after I joined TDU and shows the Bendigo Christmas tram, exactly 16 years ago today.  That tram is now 'out to pasture' in a Yarra Valley winery.

Mal Rowe - wishing you all the peace and joy of Christmas
