Great Northern visit Albury!



Gidday Guys,
                       went across to Albury today to shunt Bunges and
spotted Great Northern 373 sitting under the old gantry crane. Picked up the
keys to get into the mill and proceeded to the Sydney End of the yard and
found G.N. #103 [x WA Y103]. Seems that as part of their partnership with
Freight Rail they add additional h.p., when needed. The "T" had suffered a
traction motor failure and was waiting Mr Pickles and his mobile jib to be
lifted and repaired! The J returned on the next up. Seems things are looking
up for  Railways up here in the North East.
                                          Rod.
