I thought I saw the two yellow Harris 'M' cars in the SRV 'new' depot on
Tuesday 9/9.  Can anyone verify that they were there??

With the conversion of Melbourne spark pans to the graphite contact
type, the greaser should become redundant sooner or later.....and given
that there are no other Harris cars available for preservation, it would
make sense for Elecrail to acquire them.

Cheers,
Craig.
