[TAS] Monday's 36 delayed



2011, 2003 and 2008 were assigned to Train 36 from Hobart Monday night.
The train was delayed when 2008 refused to start.

An interesting time with torches, car headlights and the like was
observed until 2008 was able to roar into action (being a GM, roar is
the appropriate word).

The train left at 2030 hours.  It had been leaving around 1900 hours
recently.  Was clearly heard thundering up into Glenorchy from the
Regatta Grounds.

Not sure if it made it to Burnie, or whether a fourth engine was
assigned to the consist along the way.
