Just received my October 99 issue of the Railway Magazine from the UK.
On the front cover is a photo of 4079 Pendennis Castle outside
the shed at Dampier, with the following title:-
"COMING HOME?. Didcot bids to bring Pendennis Castle back from OZ"

Regards, Graham Elliott.

Gheringhap Loop is at the 82/83 Km post (87/88Km on standard
gauge) South West of Melbourne.
