[Ausloco] PLs , 82s & others

["kak 015" <kak015@hotmail.com>]

Good afternoon folks.

PL2 is reported to be sidelined with wheel slip problems.
Meanwhile 4881 is reported to be enroute to Chullora for conversion into PL5 
whilst 4846 and 4856 are soon to be shopped to become PL 6&7 but not 
necessarily in that order.

Meanwhile 8201 and 8202 are scheduled to have their radio equipment 
installed in them tomorrow to allow them to work in South Aussie on the 
Leigh Creek coalies and 8204 will be so treated shortly.

There was a suggestion that the 81 class currently working the Leigh Creek 
coalies being hired to ASR but I cannot find any confirmation on this. Does 
anybody know any more about this?

Finally, there was a suggestion several months ago that FA was looking to 
purchase the 2 BL class which were reported out of service to replace the 2 
Gs (517&518) that were destroyed in the Ararat collision. Is there any 
update on this?

That's all folks!
Ivar
