Peterbrough Station news tue16 th nov 1999.

["Robin" <stationmaster@ozemail.com.au>]

Peterborough 19:12CST good evening from the station
a very quiet day today with the first train coming through
at 13:40 an Eastbound BHP Steel Products freight with
a 20 + rake of Bloom wagons from Whyalla, Locos in
charge both in Aboriginal colours NR52 and NR30.

The Indian Pacific was in over 2 hours late at 14:50 due
 to a signal  block failure and speed restriction , this
side of Broken Hill , interesting to note here that people
travelled over 400 klm from Port Lincoln to pick up
passengers , could this be  an Australian record.

The Down BHP freight came crashing and rumbling
through at 18:12 hrs with a load of coiled wire and
Steel Plate for Whyalla.

I should have some interesting photos within a few days.
Enjoy your Trains
