Re: NSW 40 class



AFAIK 7101 became W267; it stayed on sg for years (along with W266).  Sg Ws
were used to shunt passenger trains at Dynon; sometimes they hauled empty
sets to/from Spencer St.  There was a fantrip with one once (to Upfield).
Joyce & Tilley 'Railways in the Pilbara': 4002 & 4006 became 261.002 &
261.001, then 1705 & 1700, then 9405 & 9401.

One was restored by PRHS in time for bicentenary year, and ran on Robe
River.
