John,

Suburban trains are no longer stabled at Ashburton, according to the
current W.T.T. The Met Trains has arranged to run empty cars from
Flinders Street to Camberwell/Alamain, as follows:

Monday-Friday

T.D. 2251 ex FSS 04.30 down Alamain (Arr. 04.49) - Empty elec.
T.D. 2249 ex FSS 09.34 down Camberwell (Arr. 09.49) - Empty elec.
(forms: 2307 ex CAM 09.50 down Alamain - with passengers)

Saturday

T.D. 2251 ex FSS 04.45 down Alamain (Arr. 05.04) - Empty elec.

Sunday

T.D. 2251 ex FSS 07.28 down Alamain (Arr. 07.47) - Empty elec.

FSS = Flinders Street
T.D. = Train Descriptor

Cheers,

I.C.
