Re: Ghan to Melbourne

["Lachlan Smith" <lsmith@senet.com.au>]

When it arrived in Adelaide on Wednesday, it was being pulled by both
aboriginal-liveried locomotives, NR30 NR52. NR30 was uncoupled after
refuelling, and left behind. Just before departure, NR92, which I think had
just arrived on the Overland, was coupled to the front of the consist.

| NR77-AQMZ-AMPZ-HM-BG-CDF-AFC-2xBRJ-AR-ARJ-ARM-DF-AFC-2xARL-ER-HGM (17
