BTN car and other stuff

[Craig Haber <albatross@harnessnet.com.au>]

G'day,

I noted in the pass yard yesterday arvo (7/12) a carriage numbered
BTN 263.

It appears to be former ACZ/BCZ 263, fitted with BN type seats.  Now
it's pretty hard to tell just in passing, but I think the former Conny's
module may have been removed.  It's coded _H_, so it's a 415V HEP only
car.

Speaking of seats, what sort do the Bluebird cars have?

On 7/12 8237 (1800 Warrnambool pass) had A71+S300, the A was being
worked to Warrnambool account excess loading on the goods!  It seems the
Warrnambool goods is very well loaded, they have at times been forced to
leave loading behind, exceeding the max for one A class (which I think
is around 1100t on the up?).  And just think there used to be more
loading - fastrack for Colac and Warrnambool is now off the rails and on
road. ):

Cheers,
CH.
