I just heard this morning from a good friend who works at Werris Creek
loco, that a Northern Rivers 421 class loco is due up for a traction
motor change out. He could not give me an exact date, but he said it
would be within the next 3 weeks. If this was to happen, the 421 would
leave Grafton on 6122 for a daylight run to Taree, and possibly travel
on 1527 ex Port Waratah late in the same evening, with a morning arrival
in Werris Creek. When was the last time a 421 class loco ventured into
Werris creek if not at all ? When I find out more details I will post
it to the sightings list.
