Further to this, I went out to Port Kembla this afternoon for a look and 
noted these locos in attendance at the loco maintenance centre at 
3pm.  (Recorded left to right, right facing P/K North)

4908, in a shed in front of the centre
8206-8137
8018-X208-X118-X212 (all looking rather sad and old, the door on 8018 was open)
8156-8109
8160
8128-8153-8137-8206
Cockatoo run 3801's carriage MFS2121

Labelled as NR's, 8102 was shunting about halfway between Pt Kembla and Pt 
Kembla Nth

The 2 FV X's that Ivar mentioned were also noted about about 11:30am along 
with at least 1 G class (possibly others but I didn't get a good enough 
look), all painted in army camourflage FA colours :P
