There are only 4 FQ's and what is it now 6 return services per week (thats 12 trains!)
So you can't possibly have an FQ on every AD/DA service

2DA2 arrived late behind VL351/GM47. 4AD1 is going out behind ALF20/VL351.
3MP5 stalled near Mt. Lofty after an engine failure and eventually arrived behind GM42/2207/CLP17/NR104/NR17. or in some sort of order.

I've been told that 2 of the GMs headed out to Karoonda and the 3rd GM assisted CA2 back to Adelaide due to a number of traction motors being cut out between 2 locos.

All three GM's were at Tailem Bend last night still. CA2 came back light engine with 2212/GM37/CLP8. The other two engines off AC1 came back via Broken Hill hauling 4CA4 to Pt. Pirie. 5172 then picked up those two engines.
