4703 return delayed



Aus loco discussion mailing list  
4703 was to have been delivered to Sydney this Saturday to re-enter service with LVRF however yesterdays trail run ended in a failure. Apparently a faulty traction motor will need to be repaired / replaced before it will enter service. I can confirm that 4703 has been painted in a new corporate livery. The colours are reported to be brunswick green / bone / red and the appearance not unlike the RSA livery of 4827. Yesterdays trial to Young (didn't get that far) was with 4703 and 4204. Apparently when the 47 failed they turned back driving from the 42 however I'm told even the 42 was "playing up" on the run home.
Cheers
