When I travelled on the OL several years back (on the BG), the AJ cars
were suitably equipped, and did show a video. Trouble was you needed a
walkman to tune into it, and as no promotional material (if any
existed!) advised us that this existed, we weren't expecting it, had no
walkman, and couldn't take advantage of it.
I did however take advantage of the 'stable doors' to enjoy the chant of
the solo N class up Ingliston Bank with 9 cars. The V/Line Conny's
didn't mind too much, but the AN Conny's locked 'em :(
Cheers,
CH.
