Good to see that nothing changes as far as shunting goes. This was the exact
manouvre used in 1990 when the Comeng sets were sent to Martin and King to
have Driver communication doors in them.

What are they going there for this time?

Is the Martin & King siding still secured by single lever and padlock?

Is it still Martin & King?
