Have just got back to NZ from Melbourne and have read the notes about BL's
on BG.

I was at Sth Dynon on Friday 12th and saw BL 26 complete with new broad
guage bogies being tested by fitting staff.

I had seen this loco eairlier in the day mulitpled to two Y's or similar.

The other thing of interest that I saw was Y 165 newly painted and appeared
to have a new window configuration on the cab end but may have been
mistaken.
