On the Right Track?

Abandoned railway line that runs behind Bangalow's main street

Bangalow, The Place Beyond the Pines?

I just love the cryptic nature of synchronicity.

I've been waiting for the Bangalow Billy Cart Race for a long time, 
I meant to go the previous two years, but always forgot and missed the day.
This year though I was determined to get down there and see it for my first time.
Why a billy cart race you ask?
Well it all goes back to a dream (?) I had after my father-in-law died -
My WTF Birthday Card , 
which featured him pushing me up and over a hill in a pale blue peddle car.

Pale blue car with white/silver wheels

This has set me off on an obsession of trying to find out the meaning of this very real dream that I had, plus my obsession of trying to find a match to this blue car from my dream. 
Life Is A Boxcar

42?

127?  Repo Man?

I found the above picture the other day, which matches the colour of the car in my dream, plus the silver/white tyres. 
I've been using it as my desktop background for the past week or so.

Gordon Tindall's 1951 Hudson Hornet

I chased the photo down on the net after seeing the above picture of an old Hudson with a pale blue finish and white/silver wheels.

Hudson Hornet from the movie Cars voiced by Paul Newman

The guy that owned the old beat up Hudson was featured in a post about his restoration of old railway diners.

Anyway, the Hudson that I've been using as a desktop background has the number plate 
622-127 on the front and I also noticed the car out of the movie 
Repo Man has a 127 number-plate also -
Repo Man/127 Sync

127 Repo Man

So, I decided to take my Repo Man soundtrack with me on the drive down to Bangalow.
But I pulled this CD out of the rack by "mistake" -

More railway tracks?

The railway tracks meant nothing to me when I pulled the CD out, because I wasn't aware of the old railway line running behind Bangalow's main street, but I had seen Brett play these songs live a few years ago when he supported Pete Murray

So I grabbed Brett's CD So Much More, 

as well to take along for the long drive.

Aboot Canadians

I just noticed the tree behind Gordon Tindall's 1951 Hudson Hornet and the tree I thought was a maple tree in Bangalow look pretty much the same.

The CDs that I played to Bangalow, plus a sign and crane I bought there.

My free tickets to The Place Beyond the Pines

I'm hoping to use my free tickets today to see  

The Place Beyond the Pines.

Two cars in a shop front window in Bangalow. 42?
