Craig,

Last week, the 1719 down Bacchus Marsh pass was X40, P19, P23, P22
etc. I began to think it was actually a freight train in disguise
<g!> This week it's back to A classes with A66 tonight.

Is the 0654 South Geelong a regular A class trip? It's not been
mentioned here before.

There is also some crossover the other way: I hear passenger locos
S300 and B61 worked freight between Nth Geelong Yard and Ballarat last
week (he said, tongue planted firmly in cheek!)

Regards

Yuri
