NSW 900 Class DEB Car "in steam" again

[nswsrca@ozemail.com.au]

Just a short note to report that class leader of the NSWGR 900 Class
DEB sets has been reborn and is very much in operational condition.

PF901 is one of seven DEB cars purchased by the Lachlan Valley Rail
Society Co-Operative Limited.   As part of preparation works for the
transfer of the vehicles to Cowra, 901 was "fired up" on Friday 11/9
and moved under its own power just after 1300 hours for the first time
in approximately four years.   For the next three hours, it could be
observed shunting other DEB railcars around at the former Carriage
Works complex near Redfern, before being locked away again.

Congratulations to the LVR crew involved.
