 I got a photo 2103 in its new colours yesterday and updated
http://www.sleeper.apana.org.au/railway/slr/livery.html I also made some
minor coding changes to the tables which should make the page layout
faster.

 I think all the shots I managed yesteday were of the same side. 3 modules
green, 2 purple. I can't be certain at the moment if I have both sides
recorded or not...

 Trams seem to be meeting on the Central concourse yesterday afternoon,
in the space of approx 10 minutes I saw 4 trams in Hay St, with one
disappearing up to Central before the previous one came down. I assume
extra loading to the Fish Markets was the reason.
