I'm told a photo of the back of the train is well worthwhile as they
have found the old original neon
Southern Aurora sign and it is to be attached to the rear like it used
to be.
Cheers

The RTM's Southern Aurora tour leaves Sydney on Sunday night and returns on
Wednesday morning.
It is tabled to be worked by 4306 and 4490 - the first time a 43 class has
worked to Melbourne.
Some key times (for the standard gauge component) are as follows (per STN
1095-99):

Sunday, 31 Oct - SL-1
Syd Term 2000
East Hills 2032
Moss Vale 2217-2237 (cross ST1)
Exeter 2248 - 2258 (Wait Line Clear)
Goulburn 2345
Monday, 1 Nov
Harden 0207 - 0214
Junee 0340
Albury 0530 - 0555
Spencer St 1030 (Sorry no times as yet between Albury and Melb)

Tuesday, 2 Nov SL-2
Spencer St 1745
Albury 2225 - 2240
Wed, 3 Nov
Junee 0242
Gunning 0612
Goulburn 0700 - 0750
Moss Vale 0855 - 0910 (cross SP20)
Picton 1000 - 1007
East Hills 1044
Syd Term 1120 (Again, sorry no times as yet between Melb and Albury)

Obviously, there are some photographic possibilities as it approaches
Melbourne southbound and on the return (hence the commencement of times from
Gunning) as it runs on the Short South.
I'll be riding the train so I'll raise my glass (coffee no doubt on the
return) to any trackside gunzels out photing the train.
Good luck with the shots/video/sound recording/watching or whatever.
Regards
Derek
