Txapeldun on Western Australia's Railways

I have published a post on train drivers and berets before, but never did I have any personal connection to the people involved.

Now, I am happy to say that the archetypical headgear of the railway worker is still used today, by a driver on the Perth (Australia) rail network; what's more, Eugene is a friend and customer of mine and owner of the biggest smile in the southern hemisphere! 

Needless to say, I love to see his large diameter txapeldun cruising the Western Australian railways.
