Re: QR SMU 220s and SMU 211



Hello,
Today I saw the following SMU 220s in the ETD. 221, 223, 225, 227, 228 there
were also two others colose by but couldn't read numbers. I'd say that 229
was on the other end of 228 as they were both tabled to run down to Brisbane
on Thursday night. the other was near 227, probably 226 as 222 and 224 seem
to be the only ones seen operating in traffic, but they only on the
Cleveland, Beenleigh, Robina and Ferny Grove Lines. I have even seen the
going to Doomben, whats wrong with the Caboolture, Ipswich, North Coast and
Shorncliffe lines. 212 also has decals as 211.
