Is there a "C" Class being used on RIC trains

I have received several reports that Silverton Rail are using a "C" Class on RIC trains around Sydney. Has anyone actually seen one or taken a photo of one that could be sent to me?

The C Class in has been at RIC's MTS Chullora yard during this week.

Heard that Silverton had to give two C classes back to Pac Nat and recieved six 48's in exchange. One in Freight Corp colours is currently on the Seatons train at Sandown.

If it's C505 and C508, the NRC-liveried ones which shunt the steel terminal here in Melbourne, I understood that PN were going to lease them back. Was there a change of plan?

I heared that Cs5 was supposed to go to Beramer for painting into Silverton colours last weekend but will go any day soon.

Mars,
Can you keep me posted on any more news re the loco going to Braemar. Even a photo in the new colours would be ace.

I saw Cs1 double headed with 45s1, standing next to 442s6( i think) , up the line from 8004, at macarthur not last saturday but the one before!

Cs1 appears to have been already worked on for repainting but not final coat has been applied

I havent seen it since

Anyone got any further update on the "C" classes being used on RIC trains. What about the "C" that was at Braemer getting painted?

Thanks for the info. Do you, or anyone have any idea what the former numbers of the "C"s were to what they are now with Silverton?
