Sounds diabolical - wot's next, maybe the Overland can be put on floats when
it ceases running, and be run
across the Bay to Geelong, or maybe even across to Tasmania, you wouldn't
have to worry about baggage handlers going on strike then.

Seriously though, would appreciate a little further info, is this a private
or commercial venture, and any photos
would be welcome.
