After high school, I landed a job in the railways as an apprentice telecommunications technician where I worked with rob for 10 years or so. It was a fairly rich environment to work in, with pretty much every telecommunications technology accounted for, with training on the lot. Opportunities to move around, and stay fresh.
Perhaps it’s no surprise, but there are a lot of train nuts in the railways, and rob was one of them. Growing up watching freight trains go past his front yard in Queensland planted the seed, getting a job in the railways didn’t help. On his wedding day, he got up early and with his best man, went photographing trains.
He has started a train site http://www.robertstrains.net. It’s not complete, but if you’re into trains or photography, you’ll find something of interest there.
Be warned, although rob has a good eye for photography, being published in multiple magazines, his web designing skills are interesting. I think rob has used every feature and widget available in the software he’s using. ;)
Oh, it’s 01/01/08, so Merry Easter.
