Thanks for answering a question I've been asking for over a year! I knew
there was a mixed to Yaraka (And I'm glad there still is), but I didn't
know about Monto. What happened to the Hughenden to Winton mixed?

Are these services in any danger of being withdrawn? I was lucky enough to
go to Dirranbandi (for the second time!) and Forsayth just before the
mixed trains were withdrawn, and I haven't done the others yet.

Cheers
