Don't forget the two motors at the Williamstown Railway Museum. Also
remember, the last set (or was it the last two?) built was without asbestos.
The four motors from this set are two with the Rail Greaser and two at the
Museum. All you need now is for the PTC to give up their Harris motors, the
Railway Museum to give up theirs and find 3 Ts and a BT carriage (what
happened to the grey ghost trailers? Or else convert from H sets) and you
have your historical set.
