Placement train will run on Sunday ex Dynon Loco depot with a V/Line G
class
loco (assumed G 533 or G 535) hauling a rake of 'prairie' type log
wagons....ie the old paper wagons with the tarps removed and end panels
lowered. The wagons have all been repainted into green FV livery and
were at
Dynon loco depot earlier today. South Dynon crew sign on at 1400 to run
to
Junee, then rest and return per pass. Probably will follow the old
Austrac
schedule north....ie about 1500 ex Melbourne.
