RIP ASW?



SW 1150/99 proclaims that commencing Sunday 25.7.99, Section
Authority working between Maroona - Portland and
Gheringhap - Yelta is to be abolished & replaced with Train
Order Working.

Broad Gauge trains will run on Channel 2 between Nth Geelong
C and Gheringhap, and Channel 5 Gheringhap to Yelta.
Portland  - Maroona will be on Channel 5.

Question Time: At the moment, does a Broads Gauge train
between Gheringhap & North Geelong C get its Section
Authority off the ARTC controller at Mile End, or off the FV
controller in Centrol?

Also, am I correct in saying FV only has 3 boards operating
at the moment:
Room 3: Nth Gex C - Yelta, Portland, Melb - Ararat, Pinaroo,
Ararat - Castlemaine,  Hopetoun & Yaapeet, Robinvale &
Kulwin;
Room 5: Warrnambool, Brooklyn (SG)??, Seymour -
Shepperton(Tocumwaul?), Strathmerton - Cobram, Benalla -
Oaklands;
Room 9: Melb to Stony Pt, Sale, Nyora & Piangil, Bgo -
Deniliquin

(source: SW1125/99)

Room 3 was the ARTC ASW board, Room 4 was the FV ASW board,
Room 6 was the spare ASW board?

Nuf questions :o)

P.S. Rumour would have it that the NE CTC goes to Mile End
at the end of this month, wonder which Channel & Board for
the NE BG?
