R711 successfully put a piston thru the cylinder cover this morning's down
Warrnambool pass. This in turn destroyed a significant portion of the valve
gear. The R is currently cast aside at Colac.
Oh well, at least I went to Warrnambool by Class 'R' *once* this year...
While we are on defective R classes, what happened to R761 last weekend?
(You'd think they'd see the light and use powerful modern diesel electric
locomotives...) |-)
