R 711 will not be going to Warrnambool on Easter Saturday, as it is planned
to go to Mildura,
I believe that due to crew shortages, etc there will be no Steam service to
WBL on Easter Saturday, due to other steam operations,

I have heard that 3801 will run a trip to Seymour on Easter Sunday,

Hmm, looks like we'll get a welcoming committee down South! Look out for an
H&D Commodore sedan (Hire and Destroy for those unfamiliar with the
motorcader's dictionary).

Bevan Wall has also asked me what is happening on Easter Sat/ Sunday, and
I'm still a little unclear on the associated local tour workings.

I'm assuming R711 is on the Warrnambool on Saturday as normal.  I haven't
seen too many details of other activities, and would be grateful if Craig
or Alan could elaborate on proposed workings to Mildura etc , either as a
post, or Off List (email to pghogan@bigpond.com).

Can someone also explain the "S313 behind a choo choo reference?"  Is this
loco running with R711 using the in-cab controls?

As for Alan's list, yes to the A's, B's, S's, CLP's , CLF's, definitely
GM's if running, and you know what you can do with the NR's. I think NSW
has monopolised  the EL's, we're already getting a bit bored with them!

I shouldn't even dignify Ivar's "rough neck drunks" comment with a reply,
but it's definitely his shout if we meet up with him. :-)

Cheers,

Paul
