Hi All,

Last night while on duty, we had 9280 Swan Hill to Nth Yard run between
Totty Yard and Nth Yard, with two G Classes and 64 wagons a total of 1170
meters and 3260 tons.  A big train.

Great to see large trains,  but just one problem.  they don't fit in Nth
Yard.  as a result there was a lot of excess shunt time and resulting in the
connecting service to Warrnambool (9219) leave 60 late, and being caught up
in the occupation, Colac Winchelsea, called for a Camperdown cross. with the
up pass.  I believe these trains are going to get even bigger.
