Has anyone seen 86 class (electric locos) in the last few weeks?
Of the four conditional coal services I often see through the Mountains on
weekdays which are regularly electrically hauled, namely:
Approx 0620 down through Faulconbridge;
Approx 1130 down through Penrith
Late am up through Penrith; &
Approx 1755 up through Penrith;
none have had 86s in the last few weeks.
Triple 81s on 33 wagon trains and quad 81s on 42 hoppers seems to be the
norm.
Have the 86s met their demise or have I just been unlucky?
