 Despite the fact that 7333 is presently not operating, 7344 is on hire to
Countrylink and SMR18 is to be withdrawn again shortly because of ongoing
problems the Cockatoo Run it seems will continue in the short term. What the
motive power will be remains to be seen. You may expect to see a locomotive
change in the near future. Also 3801 Ltd is to begin running the "Long Lunch
Train" from December 2nd and this is a regular trip from Sydney every
Wednesday. It will be diesel hauled and run Sydney - Moss Vale - Wollongong -
Sydney offering an all First Class train with lunch served on the train.
