There have been several queries about Warrnambool Race Day trains on May
1.

Full consists are reproduced below. I don't have all the times - to the
best of my knowledge, trains ran throughout the day close to time. The
late departure from Spencer St and use of the N class loco on the race
train were documented in a previous post, as were schedules.

8290 - 18:30 Return Race Special

trailling.
