Hmmm, now what does it mean, it gets refurbished? Oh, would I love to be part of that. Not that I know anything about electrification...
But I kinda don´t like the new interior...

Well, let me show you the inside as I know it since ages, right?
In case you are new, Hubby´s name is pronounced like that without the "D", Ingo.
Sad people, no matter what age, are glued to their "cellphones".
I am "free", I look outside (and I like the BLUE)!
Yes, we are talking murals, so Les Nash´s design painted by Alan Bond here again:
Thank you, Sami for your patience and fun-times with murals (more to come)!
Wiki says, the mural is "demonstrating that the 'dingo' contributes to the community’s sense of place…"
I once saw a wild one on Fraser Island:
This was taken in 1995 with real film and also I didn´t dare to get near...
After all, if cute looking it´s a wild animal.
Funny: Signs everywhere on the campground to NOT leave things outside as the Dingos (Dingoes?) will take them.
Next morno one young couple, faces red with shame and toilet paper all over the place 🤣
Dogs are just like cats.
In case you care what we´ll hopefully be up to in two years with these:
C-Line - looks like this:

I know, a little train-loaded...
Speaking of... Ingo´s latest train for me... gotta make it "green"... (#INFINITY).
To make up for that, this - as busses - is also Transperth:
No matter which - you just tag on and off. Brilliant.

It's a nice looking train. I'm glad we don't have to tag off in Adelaide, I would forget. But then I have a senior card and travel for free anyway.
Looks good, both train and dingo
River, once I tagged off too quick and got caught - the officer checked and I did nothing wrong, I wasn´t too fast, actually it beeped and didn´t register on the train-station! All good :-) But yes, if you forget... uhhh....
Still better than our paper-tickets!

Bertiebo, thank you :-)
I heard on the news about the WA built trains :)
Oh the dingo mural, it's been there forever, or so it appears :)
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.
Yay to the trains, sadly I lost my project/Fortescue did not want "us".
Yes, I might´ve posted the DINGO often before, but I love seeing this mural!
I like that dingo mural, Iris.
:-) It´s an old "friend", RedPat!
The train looks good. Wish we had more here. I do love the looks of the Dingo. Have a nice day today.
We have a newly built rail and sky train but I haven't ridden it yet.
I thought the train interior looked very spacious, but would look better in blue. 😉
I wish we had trains like that here! I like the green. Our trains look so old-fashioned.
Just curious, do dingoes ever become pets? I had to look up about them, just because I was curious. They say their DNA is half way between a domestic dog and a wolf. And they aren't pets, but I didn't know that. Thanks for this post. It may have referred to trains in some of it but I learned a lot about dingoes. Happy new week Iris.
Nicole, yes, wish we had trains like that here, too, ours are... ACK! I still try to get Ingo´s money back!

gigi, if you do... share pics, please?

CJ, yes, to blue, but maybe I have to just look forward?

Sue, ,ours look... gack. Perth is just better!

Erika, Dingoes, as far as I know, are wild animals. This one looked so friendly, though!
"Sorry" about the train-stuff ;-)
I hate seeing cell phones everywhere! I really love the look of the train, Iris -- the colors and it sounds like it is quite beautifully designed, too!
