Yes, no sweat to bring back Bairnsdale service, nor Mildura (enough
sleeper in Newport shop) or Corbam (IIRC Shepparton service stable at
Shepparton long enough to run service to Cobram) and Leogatha(this
service can even go to WCR). As for Ararat/Dimboola state goevrnment
can subsidy GSR to use the 2nd set of Overland and make the service
run twice daily(one day and one night service)
Cheers
James
