I know its not really Ausloco, but I detect a bit of anti ARTC bias in
Darren's postings. Is it the responsibility of ARTC to provide ASW units -
surely it is the responsibility of the organisers or whoever is servicing
the motive power  is to ensure that they are available well before the event.

And just WHO was responsible for not fuelling the locomotives, I think we
should be told - certainly wasn't ARTC.

Cheers, Mark

WARNING: There is a severe conflict of interest with this posting - yes I am
employed by ARTC as a consultant for some of their PR work.

Feel free to respond directly Darren rather than annoy the rest of the list
with an ongoing thread.
