They were NR51 and NR108 back to back with one car set only. Through
Molong abount 0720 in watery sun, Lithgow 1120 in drizzle and
continued to Sydney.

81's are to work the return for three weeks or so whilst structure
clearances are amended for NR's.

Probably with e change of locos in Sydney, the departure will not be
too late - nothing like as bad as with the locos needing to be
fuelled.

I try and get some shots up on David Johnson's page in the next week
or so.....
