Re: URGENT! Researcher for major motion picture needs info!

Tricky, and we don't know how much liberty to take.
Qld should have enough authentic carriages, scenery & a PB15.
NSW could muster some end-platform suburban carriages, an LFX (or
equivalent), but has no steamable 32 at the moment.  ARHS ACT's 1210 may
meet the need.  Film on MTR?
Victoria has a steamable D3 and several 1890s carriages (Vs at Ballarat). 
Film on SGR?
Tas has some wooden carriages, probably the right era, and a steamable A. 
Nice scenery.
SA: Pichi Richi, with a T and end-platform carriages (the short ones are
1890s).
WA: Nothing?
