Aus loco discussion mailing listG'day all, I'm wrong again! The "ever-reliable" DIGEST editor to the fore to correct me! CLP's have Cummins HEP sets not Detroit GM's as I believed and posted yesterday. My apologies to the list. On other matters, "dunny-equipped" X49 (FV paintjob) was in Echuca yesterday to assist with either heavier than normal tonnage's on 9084 to Melb. or a failure of the G class may have occurred. For the benefit of `interstaters', the bodywork at the No.2 end of X49 is extended to a point flush with the frame end. The dunny is located between the radiator fans and the No2 frame ending giving a "flush" (sorry!) appearance much like the "Not Raucous" NR class No.2 end. Unusually, a G class is shut down in Echuca yard presently (0900 hrs). They normally only remain o/nite on weekends!  I'll get the reason and post when known. See Ya     AH

 Aus loco discussion mailing listRossA full rundown on the CLP/CLF class locos was provided in the June 1994 edition of Railway Digest (pages 16-23). In brief there are many similar features but some significant differences like fuel tank capacity (11360 L - CLP, 10230 L - CLF), gear ratio (59:18 - CLP, 60:17 - CLF) together with the fitment of hydraulic yaw dampers and twin Cummins-Onan diesel alternator sets to the CLPs (to supply head-end power). RegardsDerek
