Nup. At last count, 32 and 34 were the last of the non dynamic GM's
running regularly, all the dynamic fitted units (37 to 47) are operating
except GM44 which is being repaired following a smash up with a truck
many months ago.

Not to mention 22 and 27 with GNRS, with 10 to come soon ex shops.

2 B's on WCR as well as S300/2/11

The last 4 S class on V/Line Freight (yeah, I know!) were 301/6/7/10.
Currently stored.

VLF also has all the A class, bar 4 which are VLPass.

All 17 CLF/CLP's are operating except 15 (was CL1) which was written off
at Mt Christie.

At this time, CLP8/11/13/14 are orange with CLF3 not far away.

GM1 gets occasional use.

GM3 is the yard shunter at Clyde, Bathurst.

4204 is at Cowra, but not currently serviceable, as is 4201 at Thirlmere
(but it was potting around the yard the other week, so I am told).
