| Carl Scully was in Newcastle yesterday to announce the calling of tenders
| for a new fleet for Hunter Valley DMU services. Seven two-car sets are to
be
| built at a cost of $50 million, tenders being called within six months,
| contracts signed within eighteen and trains running by 2005.

And re-anounced twice a year for the next 10 years with nothing done because
they can't afford the $300million.
