422 class happenings

Aus loco discussion mailing list

Information obtained from a usually reliable source within Freightcorp 
advises that they have had a rethink of the idea of donating 42219 to RTM 
and possible disposal of 42210.
It now appears that the remaining 422 class in Freightcorp ownership (16 
units) will be offered for sale.
There have been 2 expressions of interest, one from Canada and the other 
reportedly from ASR.
42219 has been forwarded to Lithgow to have its "good" wheels swapped for 
the worn wheels of an 81 class.
42219 is then to be forwarded to Adelaide for evaluation by ASR.
Lets hope that things work out so the units will remain in Aussie and in use 
by ASR.
