    Followed 4AD8 today from Crystal Brook to Coonamia (1505hrs) with single NR74 on the front.  Noticed that NR74 has lost its 'Port Pirie' name plate from the observers side.  Does anyone know if the drivers side still has its name?

    Cheers,

    Paul.

    NR69 is the one with the LEDs all round as it has been recently 'repowered'. NR63 has not been done.
