Hey all.

Little info about me first. I am from Murtoa, in Victoria's West. We are
positioned 30kms East of Horsham and are the intersection between the main
Adelaide-Melbourne line and the branch line to Warracknabeal. I have been
interested in trains since my early childhood and hope to become a driver
one day in the future.

"Early this morning 9792 crossed the down GHAN at Gheringhap at 0013 with
G519+EL57+EL54 (both CFCLA livery) & 15 wags and sat in the loop to cross
9791 which had G541+G530+G531+G535 & 14 wags at 0016. Looks like a change
over of locos to me down on the Portland line?"

Freight Australia have been using EL54+EL57 along the Adelaide-Melbourne
line for grain haulage for the past 2months. I have also been told by a FA
station master that FA were considering purchasing, but due to lack of power
compared to the G class loco, have scrapped the idea. I have taken numerous
photos of the EL's and hope to have them scanned soon for all to see.
