[Ausloco] Orange traffic, 29/4-1/5

[Peter Donaghy <PeterDo@als.com.au>]

Driving home from work on saturday evening, I sighted a headlight
glaring from the Parkes branch, so waited a moment.  8119 / 8151 hauling
17 Manildra hoppers ran through towards Sydney at 1918.

Last night I heard control talking to two trains re a crew swap at East
Fork, so into the car and off trackside.  I missed the Sydney-bound
train, but think it was the empty Oil ex Dubbo.  Train 9281 (empty grain
hoppers) headed towards Dubbo at 2035 behind 8181 and 8255.  Just over
an hour later, WL1 Indian Pacific ran through as NR21 / motorail with 6
cars / 16 carriages: the standard consist.
