The first log train will be on thursday, 21/10/99. It arrives at Queanbeyan at 
,approx 0600 and proceeds to Hume to load. Once loading is complete the train 
prceeds to the home signal at Queanbeyan, approx 1000, and stables until about 
1900, the crew book off. The train is supposed to be hauled by G classes and 
crewed by LVR crews.
