[Ausloco] Re: CLP 13 FOR COALIE DUTIES
8202 was rostered for maintanence at PA this week. While one unit is
serviced they continue to run the train with 2 units and a reduced
load. This was the case 2 weeks ago when 8201 was rostered and will
again be the case in 2 weeks from now when 8204 is rostered.
Apparently the poor condition of the track on this line is causing
some excessive wheel wear and the same was experienced with the 81s
when they were down there.
