All depends on what day you are where... Sunday Arvo is the best day in
Echuca with a Down goods (to Deniliquin), Pass arrival, Pass Departure and
Up goods (same one, returning from Deniliquin, shunts at Echuca) and if
You're lucky, a WCR steam special once per month.

Shepparton has goods to Tocumwal and Melbourne and also pass services (Hoys)
to Melbourne. (And a Pilot that shunts at Mooroopna and Shep I think?)

That's all I can help with ATM, someone with more knowledge of the areas
will be able to provide you with more details....
