If the LVR 47's were there, it would have been nine different classes.
Speaking of variety, the other week there were four drivers' in a pub at
Parkes, having a beer together after work. Nothing unusual about that,
except they all worked for different rail companies (FreightCorp, NRC,
GrainCorp, Silverton) !!
Times are certainly changing..
