[Ausloco] {Vic} Interesting day on the south east

["MICHAELBRAY" <MICHAELBRAY@bigpond.com>]

Although Saturdays usually only sees one freight on the Traralgon line in daylight hours, today saw two extra freights run. At 10.06 A77 passed Murrumbeena with a mini Pioneer train to Westall, while at 13.21 T388-T400 passed on the up with a loaded log train. After this I whent back into town, but on passing Caulfield two push-pull H sets both with P class on each end were noted stabled on the main line and N class and N or FN set was in one platform, as I was about to head off I noticed one more train there, this time it was the mini Pioneer. A closer look revealed that the A had failed and had been pushed by a Comeng somewhere between Westall and Caulfield. At Caulfield A85 was dropped on and departed at 14.06. The paper train also ran with A71-A81 and should of passed the Pioneer somewhere near Richmond.
 
With the ATN L class in Melbourne, nobody has reported possibly the most interesting part of it's transfer. The transfer from the docks to the RTS depot saw it hauled by a National Rail C class (contact was not sure which one). Is this the first C class to visit the docks?
 
Also, FA's T409 is on tonights Austrac train behind EL63-EL61 (All #1 end leading).
