Re: [Ausloco] Re 422 Class

[Bob <alco@acay.com.au>]

Further to my original posting, it now seems the RTM management don't
want a 422 class. Also it would appear that whilst I was originally told
that 422s were going to SA and I assumed the buyer was to be ASR I may
have been wrong. There is now a suggestion that the buyer is ATN and
that they are destined to go to NRE Whyalla for rebuilding. Now the
movement of 42219 North has totally confused me!
Cheers
Bob
