Re: V-Sets @ Sydney Terminal Concourse

[petercook2705@my-deja.com]

There was a rumour that the train was being reversed by a shunter when
it crashed into the buffers..

There was some damage.  I'm not sure about scratches, but there were
some ppl down when they moved the set off the buffers doing something
to an air hose below the coupler using black duct tape and strips of
plastic.

And this did occur on Platform 1 - a CountryLink platform.  At least
five other Gunzels were around that day and I've already seen some
great pics floating around.  I'm sure someone will furnish a URL in due
course (mine haven't been developed yet and probably won't be scanned
anyway).
