It never went to Kilmore East today. Me and my dad went there to photograph it
and it didn't arrive. We then went to the station and asked the stationmaster
(or whatever they call them these days) and he said that it only runs to
Kilmore East a few times a week at the moment, ie: as required. He doesn't even
know if it will run until the day before. Anyway, there was still some action
on the narrow gauge <g!>. 8173 passed us at 1127 with a fairly small down
freight.
