Ivar,

In addition to your postings I was on the Short South on Saturday 19/2
noting 2x81 on long up wheatie taking the Robertson line at Moss Vale at
approx. 10:05am and later on (need to check but I think 11:30 - noonish)
2x81 on up hoppers for Berrima, later spotted entering the Berrima works.

I have loco numbers and more precise times at home on the video - if anyone
wants to know, please EMail me off line.

Hope this is of interest,  Andrew
