My spies tell me that if Freightcorp management get their way we will
see 9 x 82 class units transferred to S.A. on a long term basis. It would
appear that up to 6 of these may see use with ASR however don't hold your
breath. Negotiations have been going on since last February and they still
not been finalized.

Aus loco discussion mailing listJust picking up on the 82 thread that has been floating around recently,
the Sydney-Melbourne-Sydney workings, late last year there was
some talk of 82's heading across the border again to SA. Anything in
this or has it all developed into a bit of a lame duck situation.
Anyone care to shed any light on it thanks, think 'Bob' reported on
it late last year and haven't seen any updates of recent times.
Tks, ciao, GOB-----Original Message-----
