The '''Riesling Trail''' is a 27 kilometre walking and riding track located in the [[Clare Valley]], [[South Australia]]. It runs between [[Auburn]] and [[Clare]], passing through several towns and villages along the way, including [[Leasingham]], [[Watervale]], [[Penwortham, South Australia|Penwortham]] and [[Sevenhill]]. Originally part of the railway branch line which ran between [[Riverton]] in the south to [[Spalding]] in the north, it was abandoned after the [[1983]] [[Ash Wednesday]] bushfires which burnt through the valley and damaged a lot of the trackwork. It was decided that the old railway lines would be removed and in the late 1990s, this part of the route was converted into its present use as a walking and cycle trail. Many of the original rails were sent to [[Queensland]], where they were layed down as tracks used for transporting sugar trains in the north of that state.

Dear ClockworkTroll thanks for your welcome. Im german and interested in aviation. I just do some interwiki links and trace down some errors concerning aviation, espacially german or russian aviation. -- [[User:Stahlkocher1|Stahlkocher]] 17:11, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)

== Boeing 307 ==
You asked if I have a picture of the [[Boeing 307]] at the Udvar Hazy Center. I have a few pictures, but they aren't the greatest (the Udvar Hazy center doesn't have great lighting). I'll upload one today and add it to the 307 page. -- [[User:Kaszeta|Kaszeta]] 12:11, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
:Done. It's Image:Boeing_307_Udvar_Hazy.jpg. -- [[User:Kaszeta|Kaszeta]] 12:25, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
== Thanks for the welcome! ==
Much appreciated. I like keeping inter-wiki links up to date, and my knowledge of German is enough to do that in most cases ... but I hope you won't mind me asking for help occasionally? [[User:Morven|—Morven]] 17:32, May 16, 2005 (UTC)
