Brings back memories. In the good old days (sic) when Ararat was still a
depot the term Goofies was used out west and down south to Portland, When we
ran to Geelong they were Bullets. They were also refered to Bullets up
Donald, Ouyen way. It made it confusing sometimes when you ran a train one
way or went releiving up the North West.
