Blowfly - Metallea


Grey Rhiniin Fly - Metallea incisuvalis. Family Calliphoridae... is an Australian Blowfly - as is this fine little 5" gauge, coal fired, live steam locomotive.
It is now named "METALLEA", maybe it's LEA for short... and it is metal!
It has a new home track at SRR - while it has a refurbishment and upgrade with added water injectors. Then we will be out and about.
