Ok with you're helpful information I managed to see the train... And I found a really nice place for future photo's and flashing fireman Dave in the eye's (just kiddin Wink )

Anyway the place was nice but even after some photoshop I really hate the photo.

So this train runs every tuesday and thursday at that same time untill further notice ?

The train also runs on 99% of Saturdays also. I reckon to photo is pretty good, it's definately different. Where was it taken? I can't quite place it.
Just remember don't piss off train crews, they are more use to you than you are to them.

B80 failed 2 weeks ago with burnt contactors and was detached at Goulburn South Yard. It's slowly making its way to Melbourne, I think being towed by T392. It was at Cootamundra on Saturday and in Junee yesterday.

Cheers

At this stage I've only got the path request from the RTM. I'll post times in NSW forum when they are confirmed, should be after this weekend.

B 80 died and is on it's way back to Victoria. Sad Sad , there are rumours

The official answer from SRHC is that B74 is going back to Portland. Boo hiss!
