their 421 class GM bulldog nose locos.

Brisbane dinner tour including meal [Glenapp] $85   5pm to 10:30pm  Sat 30 OCT

Their email is nrrail@bigpond.com   if you want to know more.

We were very satisfied passengers on their Murwillumbah to Casino return "Country Lunch" trip today.

 We dined in their dining car; Interesting herb bread / tasty salad / gourmet cold meat selection /
cheese plate / wine and all included in  the ticket price. The plates were real, with their Ritz
Rail logo on the dinner plates as well. Wine was in real glasses as well. Not a plastic cup in sight
and nor was there an  XPT type cardboard box to be seen!!   

Morning tea, in the dining car, was also served as part of the ticket price.

42107 / 09 hauled today's train with one off line each way.
