Aus loco discussion mailing list
I've just seen a report that there was a head on
collision between the Boyer paper train and a coal train at Western Junction
near Launceston on Tuesday. It happened at slow speed and both crews apparently
jumped clear. The paper reports that two locos, two coal wagons and two
container wagons were damaged.
Details plus a photo from the Examiner at this link
(which may be archived after a few days)
Perhaps Michael can provide further details of the
locos involved. (Looks like three of the maroon (DQ?) locos on the paper
train, and a brace of yellow Z types on the coal).
Cheers,
Paul
