  The latest I have heard is that Countrylink will now not allow their
platforms to be used and likewise Cityrail. It seems that the Mortuary Station
may be in fact the venue. I'll be able to confirm this later in the week. Also
the 90 class on display will be 9008. I understand that the foreign locos will
be assembled at Chullora and be brought in lead by an 81 class and manned by
3801 crews.
