Re: Tenterfield railway to reopen?



There is a 32 class at Thirlmere which belongs to the Powerhouse Museum, I
think it is 3265. They should do a deal with them to borrow and restore it.
Then we would have room to fit another diesel in at Thirlmere, wouldn't a
49 class sound good on th Loop Line.
