Just for 8203, I saw your loco running as the fourth unit on an empty coal at Campsie at 9:30am this morning.

OK...can anyone shed light on a rogue rail-motor heading north today? I saw it pass through Wauchope at about 13:00'ish.
I couldn't get a number to post up, but it was travelling like it had skates on with a load of hi-vis vested rail workers on board as non-revenue pax.
What a lovely little suprise to see it though

Looked pretty clean compared to the other units on the coalie - the 81 in particular had "Wash me  please" written on the "8"  . Still, running as unit #4, he'll need a bath soon enough

Suspect it's 402, as it was seen in Grafton. It's due to come south on Sunday the 18/5.

Yesterday afternoon at Ravensworth took a photo of this. It's not very often you see a T class on an Ore service, but here is it is with BL 33 in the lead heading north a little after 3pm
