Further to this, it didn't have flats but had scale on wheels due to a big
emergency stop on 9138 which poleaxed a tree on the line - B76 was 6th loco
on the train, but still had woodchips wedged under it!  This has been fixed
and it returns to traffic second loco on 8207 Thurs, then solo 8232/8237.
B61 went to Ballarat (for elec repairs and a lube) on a 0300 empty cars
with Steamrail's T356 and empty cars for filming purposes at Ballarat this
morning (Wed), this train should be stabled in Plat 2 during the day, they
will return on Friday, 1025 ex-BXT at 65km/h (a Z van is attached - hence
easy pickings for chasers).

Cheers,
CH.
