Re: [Vic/SA] Long Overland

Strewth - loco plus 25 cars! How did they get it over the Adelaide Hills?
NRs are obviously very powerful or did NR81 have some help?
It's a bit dissapointing it took so long to split at Spencer Street. Maybe
they should have used the old British slip coach technique coming over the
viaduct at North Melbourne. The timing would have to be good though.:)
