There were 2 NR class in Aboriginal Colours (similar but distinctly
different) in Keswick Terminal last weekend.   They were being
refuelled from a road tanker in the westernmost carriage siding at the
southern end of the yard.

APT seems to be one of those places NR parks its NRs, perhaps because
Goninan has a maintenance base for the passenger service there.
