I have a photo of a Commonwealth Railways railcar that I took at Albury in
September 1983, but unfortunately I didn't get its number. Would that have
been one of these NDHs, maybe the 'Duke of Gloucester'?
When I saw the 'Duke of Gloucester' at Spencer Street in March 1994 it was
coded ADH2, so I presume it was originally NDH2.
