They sure were, lucky enough to catch them at Western Junction, then at East Tamar.
ALL log wagons at conara have gone, with only a dozen coal hoppers there.

Well, farewell to the log wagons, you did do tassie rail proud. I wonder if the pulp mill goes ahead, will the new company that gets PNT, manufacture new log wagons?
The other day, notice a QS in service. Had a nice bend.

Notice the other day, a MKA with what looked like a face drawn onto it. The eyes is the windscreens. I wanted to get a photo, but it was shoved into the shafts.

Notice a truck, packing up scaffolding from the Cam River rail bridge, Somerset this morn. Is there rail working happening on the Far Western Line?

They would be the 2 repaired wagons from the last derailment down the Que. Been in the workshop for months now awaiting the finishing touches.

Same happened at Devonport, I passed one on the highway on the way home from work on the back of a truck with the bolsters cut off, the same as in Steamwerk's photo there. One rake of the two that were in Devonport are gone.
