Listen Guys, I might be wrong here but last time I rested at Tocumwal I walked
accross the yard to the Platform from the Motel, and I am pretty sure the SG
track is in place, and although heavily overgrown with weeds, I suspect that
most of the infrastructure is still in place including the track to the
platform...but I may be wrong, as I was not thinking about Pass running....only
how a conversion to BG and on to the largest Silos in NSW could mean lots of
work for V/Line.....lets face it ...........ah well ...fairytales....
