I recently heard a rumour that an old LP vinyl - "Night shift" has been
re-released as a CD. It has a couple of tracks of of 5711 working freight
trains on the South, and would be available at the ARHS shop in Renwick
Street, Redfern.

There is also the video "5711" which features excellent audio of 5711 nicely
synched up with some silent B&W movies. This is possibly an RTM publication,
but I'm not sure.
