Re: Bluebird Railcar Rosters from 6/12/98

["John Wayman" <trecker@bigpond.com>]

The Bluebird, no. 801 (I think) was pulling into Caulfield station as my bus
departed for Kew. The new livery blue and brown is not inspiring, and is
almost a composite Overland/Bluebird livery. It was probably heading for
Warragul. It didn't appear to have any passengers.

I always thought that Victoria should operate Bluebird like railcars. I
didn't think it would actually operate 40 year old Bluebird railcars that
had been pensioned off! Hey I celebrated 50 years of DERMs in 1978, so why
not 50 years of Bluebirds in 2008 or whenever!


Will these cars start in service today (6/12/98)?

Cheers
