Locos in parks
Further to this subject I thought I might add a few Victorian locos to
the list, funnily enough J539 at Dimboola came up in a previous
message(I forget who from) I was there only a couple of months ago and
all fencing has been removed from around the loco. The previous time I
had seen J539 (October 1994) it was fully fenced and in a rather
dilapidated state, but this time it was newly painted and carries
warnings inside the cab regarding the asbestos boiler lagging - Quite
suprising!
Another loco that springs to mind is D3 684 at Seymour.
This loco is also unfenced and is in need of some T.L.C. The tender has
had new panels welded into it and the boiler cladding has also been
patched. This loco still does have asbestos under the cladding.
Another feature of this loco is the cab floor has been concreted over.
D3671 at Lismore has been fenced in.
D3641 at Beaufort is fenced in.
K175 which is at Mildura has been fenced and the boiler has a
fiber-glass covering over it.
J524 at donald has been fenced
D3619 at Goninon Bendigo has been fenced.
K191 at Wangarrata from memory has been fenced in.
A few questions, Where is D3 666 in bayswater? What is its condition?
Can anyone supply a photo of it?
Where abouts in Numurkah is K181?
Bye for now.
