Hi Nic

Why do you keep splitting the posts with new headers.?

The South Australian Government via Don Dunstan sold the SAR to
the Feds....Remember.  Don't blame CR/ANR for that.  The SAR was
losing BIG money (peanuts when compared to the combined losses of
NSW and Victorian Railways, admittedly.) and then ANR were told
by their Political Masters to turn the losses around.

As for the West Coast can you spell Truck.! ;-)
