I'm afraid the new Ceduna - Kevin line has already been discounted because
most ballast trains during the construction phase were hauled by T class
4-8-0s (T214 and T246 were reported as handling most workings to Feb '66).
Revenue trains on the new line have always been diesel-hauled, AFAIK.

Cheers
