Sure there's plenty of them rotting away at Newport.  Have you seen the job
that Sydney Tramway Museum did on the former wreck of a W2 from Newcastle
and restored for Christchurch.  It's now in immaculate condition and a very
reliable runner on that city's tourist tramway.  Is Canberra the home of
Federal politics?  The PM doesn't live here any more.  You elect the
politicians and send them here, we have to accept them whether we like them
or not!
