This train was one of the iconic ‘Red Rattlers’, Its name paying homage to the distinctive noise these carriages were famous for.  Some of these carriages, like the one pictured, were painted with a blue and white design due to the influence of Phillip Shirley, a native Briton inspired by his time with British Rail. This train was built in Rhodes in 1950 by Tulloch Limited, builders of single deck electric carriages for the Sydney Suburban Network from 1926 to 1957.  During WWII the same company built boats for the Royal Australian Navy.  In 1964 they delivered the first double deck trailer cars for use in Sydney.

Phillip Shirley is part of the Eveleigh Paint Shop series.

Glass prints. Face mounted glass print is the premium option. The image runs all the way to the edge with no border whatsoever. The ultra clear glass really makes the image 'pop'. These prints also feature concealed, easy to install mounts, giving the image the appearance of floating off the wall.
