There's a good chance that K205 will no longer be brown when you get here. South Spur's locos are rapidly being painted green and yellow. The narrow guage fleet is almost done, if it is not done now.


I'd say there is more than a good chance. I didn't think it was currently brown though.

What makes you think the EI, DD & AFB coaches are to be sold off?
The wooden coaches (AF26 & BRBF1) are owned by RHWA and will return to Bassendean.

More importantly, what will happen to the cars used on the train?

The wooden cars belong to the ARHS (WA) or whatever they call themselves now.

I don't know who owns the steel cars. I thought the HRGA originally belonged to the ARHS but the other steel cars were purchased from G&W.

The observation would be useful to GSR on the new Southern Spirit for their "Platinum" class.

M636C
M636C the steel cars are owned by Coote were part of SSRS sale. The cars could become 1 crew cars, 2 sold to another buyer, 3 kept as corporate train [very unlikely], 4 scrapped [unlikely]. Your quess is a good as mine.


IF ONLY YOU ALL KNEW??!! WATCH THIS SPACE! THERE"S SOMETHING FOR YOU ALL JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!!!!! Very Happy
