FP-11 Withdrawal Date

Hi Everyone,

I was after the withdrawal date of FP-11, I have researched in Digest
from the early 80's and can find no record of the withdrawal dates of
the FP series. 

FP-12's logbook records it's last journey in December '83. I am
assuming they were all withdrawn at roughly the same time, but an
absolute date would be great to know.

Oddly enough it looks like a fair amount of work was put into FP-12
before it was withdrawn, including what appears to have been a rewire,
in contrast to 11 with seems to be fairly original. 

FP-11 is currently in the ARHS-ACT yard, looking great with its new
coat of paint, and total internal refit. Only requiring minor
attention for registration.

Those big front windows give you a really great view of the scenery,
which will be a bonus when it is returned to service as a perway
vehicle on the MTR

Cheers
Karl
